This paper presents an Interior Pont Method (IPM) and variant of Particle Swarm Optimization (CFAPSO) based hybrid method to solve optimal power flow in power system incorporating Flexible AC Transmission Systems (FACTS) such as Thyristor Controlled Phase Shifter (TCPS) for minimization of multiple objectives. The proposed IPM-CFAPSO algorithm identifies the optimal values of generator active-p...

This paper proposes and validates models to accurately represent STATic Synchronous Shunt COMpensators (STATCOM) in voltage and angle stability studies of powers systems. The proposed STATCOM stability models are justified based on the basic operational characteristics of this Flexible AC Transmission System (FACTS) controller for both phase and PWM control strategies. These models are first va...

In this paper, a security constrained optimal power flow (SCOPF) is developed including the flexible AC transmission systems (FACTS) devices for the economic and secure operation of power systems. FACTS devices are used to control the active and reactive power variables as well as the voltages and to reduce the flow of a congested line. In this paper, Thyristor Controlled Series Capacitor (TCSC...

The present technological developments in power electronics industry increase the utilization of various types of Flexible AC Transmission Systems (FACTS) controllers.

The loss minimization is a major role in Power System (PS) research. Transmission line losses in a PS can be reduced by Var compensation. After the establishment of power markets with transmission open access, the significance and use of Flexible AC Transmission Systems (FACTS) devices for manipulating line power flows to relieve congestion and maximize the overall grid operation have been incr...

Distance relay plays an important role in the protection of transmission lines. The application of flexible AC transmission systems (FACTS) devices, such as the static synchronous compensator (STATCOM), could affect the performance of the distance relay because of compensation effect. This paper analyzes the application of distance relay on the protection of a transmission line containing STATC...

Congestion in the transmission lines is one of the technical problems that appear particularly in the deregulated environment. There are two types of congestion management methodologies to relieve it. One is non-cost free methods and another is cost-free methods, among them later method relieves the congestion technically whereas the former is related with the economics. In this paper congestio...

Renewable energy provides twenty percent of electricity generation worldwide. Hydroelectric power is the cheapest way to generate electricity today. It is a renewable source of energy and provides almost one-fifth of electricity in the world. Also, it generates electricity using a renewable natural resource and accounting for six percent of worldwide energy supply or about fifteen percent of th...

This paper studies the interest of the integration of battery energy storage with Static Synchronous Compensator (STATCOM) for improving the low voltage ride through capability (LVRT) of a fixed speed wind turbine connected to the grid. For this reason and by applying a grid fault, a comparison is made between integrating the SSSC, the STATCOM and the STATCOM with battery energy storage. The sy...
