in this paper, power system restoration in the presence of svc and tcsc in partial outage conditions is considered and a new method for maximum load restoration using different control variables is presented. control variables are tap of transformers, generation rescheduling and operating points of facts devices. objective function is restored load (to be maximized) and constraints are voltage ...

Photovoltaic power generation is the most significant way to utilize solar energy in world today. Facing severe fossil crisis and environmental facing today, photovoltaic has obvious advantages from perspective of resource sustainability friendliness. The access distributed sources will change flow distribution network. If grid-connected load light, capacity large. After connected, network beco...

in this paper, a combinational optimization algorithm is introduced to obtain the best size and location of static compensator (statcom) in power systems. its main contribution is considering contingency analysis where lines outages may lead to infeasible solutions especially at peak loads and it commonly can be vanished by load-shedding. the objective of the proposed algorithm is firstly to pr...

This paper presents a new islanding detection method based on the difference of the power transfer angle between the distributed generation and local load. After islanding, current id and iq will be changed by adding the variation to d_q transformation block of current. This makes voltage and frequency disturbance and therefore islanding is recognized. Active islanding detection method usually ...

the iranian ministry of energy commands the regional electrical companies to install dg resources at 63kv/20kv substations and at the end of 20kv lines. the first and foremost challenge in installing these resources is deciding on the optimal place and capacity of these resources. this paper is aimed to propose an appropriate algorithm for siting and sizing such resources in bakhtar regional el...

restructuring the recent developments in the power system and problems arising from construction as well as the maintenance of large power plants lead to increase in using the distributed generation (dg) resources. dg units due to its specifications, technology and location network connectivity can improve system and load point reliability indices. in this paper, the allocation and sizing of di...

presence of distributed generation (dg) in electric distribution systems provides an attractive new alternative in capacity expansion planning of these systems. in this paper a new model is developed for solving simultaneous placement of hv/mv substations and dg units as a static planning tool. this model aims to minimize fixed and variable costs of planning. constraints related to dgs, substat...

The grid is a network that connects all the major power stations and load centers in a country (or power system). The constraints to grid operations include generation, transmission, and system control. Remedial actions aimed at addressing these problems are presented. The high point of the recommendations is the adoption of “Distributed Generation Scheme”. In the absence of an accurate load de...

In this article, a multi-objective function for placement of Distributed Generation (DG) and capacitors with thetap setting of Under Load Tap Changer (ULTC) Transformer is introduced. Most of the recent articles have paidless attention to DG, capacitor placement and ULTC effects in the distribution network simultaneously. Insimulations, a comparison between different modes was carried out with,...

In this paper, system planning network is formulated with mixed-integer programming. Two meta-heuristic procedures are considered for this problem. The cost function of this problem consists of the capital investment cost in discrete form, the cost of transmission losses and the power generation costs. The DC load flow equations for the network are embedded in the constraints of the mathematica...
