This paper presents a method in expansion planning of transmission systems using the AC optimal power flow (AC-OPF). The AC-OPF provides a more accurate picture of power flow in the network compared to the DC optimal power flow (DC-OPF) that is usually considered in the literature for transmission expansion planning (TEP). While the AC-OPF-based TEP is a mixed-integer nonlinear programming prob...

The loadability enhancement problem with loadability objective is solved in the presence of TCSC and SVC while satisfying system equality and in-equality constraints. It is necessary to solve the optimal power flow in the presence of series and shunt flexible AC transmission system controllers such as thyristor controlled series capacitor and static VAr compensators. The optimal location of the...

A Power System Stabilizer (PSS) is the most cost effective approach of increase the system positive damping, improve the steady-state stability margin, and suppress the low-frequency oscillation of the power system. A PSS has to perform well under operating point variations. Some of the major issues in the application of PSS are the choice of the input signal, the location of the PSS, the contr...
