Strategic Placement of Solar Power Plant and Interline Power Flow Controllers for Prevention of Blackouts

In these post COVID times, the world is going through a massive restructuring which India can use to its benefit by attracting foreign industrial investment. The major requirement reliable and ecofriendly electrical power source. Of late, renewable energy sources have increasingly become popular as alternative source of electricity. They provide immense aid in improving reliability system, when placed properly. integrated along with FACTS devices promising future for systems. this paper, an effective location solar unit Interline Power Flow Controller using Line Severity Index proposed order avoid contingencies. An Indian 62 bus system IEEE 57 are considered study. Firefly algorithm used tune IPFC Integrated Energy Systems scenario, dual objective function. effect placement optimized analyzed studied detail paper.
