Optimization of position and rating of shunt and series connected FACTS devices for transmission congestion management in deregulated power networks Vengadesan Alagapuri, Ashok Bakkiyaraj Radhakrishnan, S. Sakthivel Padaiyatchi Aims Electronics and Electrical Engineering, 2024 <abstract><p>Transmission congestions are caused by electricity trading between generators and distribution companies in a deregulated environment. Power system operation and security in liberalized scenarios are maintained by removing branch overloads. A flexible alternating current transmission system (FACTS) controller is installed in a suitable location to redistribute the power flow among the transmission lines so that the power flows are brought within the capacity of the lines. In this work, series-connected thyristor-controlled switched compensators (TCSCs) and shunt-connected Volt-Ampere reactive (VAR) static compensators (SVCs) are installed in appropriate locations to alter the power flow patterns and to remove overloads. It is proposed to reduce the overload of transmission lines by locating series and shunt connected FACTS devices at proper locations. The size and location of TCSC and SVC devices greatly affect their ability to meet a congestion management goal. An optimization process optimizes the location and size of these devices to maximize the congestion mitigation benefits of the TCSC and SVC controllers. In this work, the whale optimization algorithm (WOA) is used to optimize the value of the objective function by appropriately choosing the location and size of the FACTS controllers. This algorithm has a few parameters that are tuned to give the best overall results. A WOA-based method is proposed to optimize the size and location of the FACTS devices and is implemented on the IEEE-30 bus test case. The results were compared and found to be improved with those of other algorithms such as the particle swarm optimization algorithm (PSO) and the firefly algorithm (FFA).</p></abstract>
Optimization of location and rating of unified power flow controllers for congestion management Vengadesan Alagapuri, Ashok Bakkiyaraj Radhakrishnan, Sakthivel Sithangkathan, Jayanthi Kalikrishnan Indonesian Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, 2023 Large number of contracted power exchanges among sellers and purchasers, in a deregulated power market causes transmission line congestion. Congestion of lines undermines the security and economy of power networks. Flexible AC transmission system (FACTS) devices are introduced at appropriate spots to change the power flow in order to keep the flow of the lines within their capability. In this work, the most commonly used unified power flow controller (UPFC) is proposed for achievement of changing the line flow and for easing congestion from the over loaded lines. The size and site of UPFC controllers significantly impact their performance in congestion management task. The location and size of the UPFC devices are to be optimized by using an optimization algorithm. Whale optimization algorithm (WOA) is exploited in this effort for realizing the aim of determination of site and size of the FACTS converters. The present method has lesser quantity of variables which are tuned to get best outcomes. The suggested WOA based technique is executed on the IEEE 57 bus system. The outcomes comparison is made with particle swarm optimization algorithm (PSO) and firefly algorithm (FFA) and the better improved outcomes are found.
