The major role of power system is voltage stability. It is required to plan properly and smooth operation and control. It presents a new approach of voltage stability improvement in IEEE 57 bus system using hybrid algorithm. The hybrid algorithm (PSO-MVO) is combination of PSO which is used for exploitation and MVO used for exploration. It is used in an uncertain environment. The FACTS device as STATCOM is connected in IEEE 57 test system to check for event of voltage stability improvement through power system analysis tool (PSAT) software. Once the ability of system goes through sudden loading, its stability gets affected. It desires compensation to boost voltage from disturbances. The varied operative condition while not used STATCOM in the system, used with STATCOM tuned by PSO-MVO algorithm are measured judge the performance of the projected system. The hybrid PSO-MVO technique is implemented in this paper to solve the proposed problem. The simulation results are obtained by PSAT software for 57 IEEE bus systems. The hybrid algorithm validates its effectiveness compare to individual PSO and MVO algorithm.

Leading phase operation of generator is an effective method for the control and regulation of voltage and reactive power of power system. The ability of voltage regulation for key buses by control of generator is presented in this paper. The PSD-BPA software - Power System Analysis Software Package (PSD-BPA) is introduced firstly. The management database for leading phase operation of generator is discussed. From the lagging phase operation to leading phase operation of generator, the change curves of voltage for main 500kV bus and 220kV bus are analyzed. The sensitivity on voltage regulation of each generator of leading phase operation is given. Based on the analysis of short circuit fault of power plant, the limit output power of leading phase operation of multi-generators is proposed. The leading phase operation of generator has many advantages, such as easy to operate, simple and feasible implement, and the actual operation is safe and reliable. The technique was worthy to be widely used.

Recently, there have been many cases in which direct current (DC) facilities have been placed in alternating current (AC) systems for various reasons. In particular, in Korea, studies are being conducted to install a back-to-back (BTB) voltage-sourced converter (VSC) high-voltage direct current (HVDC) to solve the fault current problem of the meshed system, and discussions on how to operate it have been made accordingly. It is possible to provide grid services such as minimizing grid loss by changing the HVDC operating point, but it also may violate reliability standards without proper HVDC operation according to the system condition. Especially, unlike the AC system, DC may adversely affect the AC system because the operating point does not change even after a disturbance has occurred, so strategies to change the operating point after the contingency are required. In this paper, a method for finding the operating point of embedded HVDC that minimizes losses within the range of compliance with the reliability criterion is proposed. We use the Power Transfer Distribution Factor (PTDF) to reduce the number of buses to be monitored during HVDC control, reduce unnecessary checks, and determine the setpoints for the active/reactive power of the HVDC through system total loss minimization (STLM) control to search for the minimum loss point using Powell’s direct set. We also propose an algorithm to search for the operating point that minimizes the loss automatically and solves the overload occurring in an emergency through security-constrained loss minimization (SCLM) control. To verify the feasibility of the algorithm, we conducted a case study using an actual Korean power system and verified the effect of systematic loss reduction and overload relief in a contingency. The simulations are conducted by a commercial power system analysis tool, Power System Simulator for Engineering (PSS/E).

Flexible alternating current transmission system (FACTS) devices have provided proficient answers to power system instabilities faced in the systems operations today with very little infrastructural investment fund. This paper investigates the effects of the installation of the combination of two kinds of FACTS controllers; static VAR compensator (SVC) and thyristor controlled series compensator (TCSC) compared with the installation of SVC or TCSC alone in the system. Voltage magnitude profile, active and reactive power losses of the three scenarios were achieved in the Nigerian 48-bus power system network using power system analysis toolbox (PSAT) in MATLAB environment. Simulation results obtained without and with FACTS devices optimally placed using voltage stability sensitivity factor (VSSF), revealed that the percentage decrease of the net real and reactive power losses of the combined SVC and TCSC was the highest at 31.917% whereas that of the standalone SVC and TCSC stood at 19.769% and 30.863% respectively. This shows that in addition to their capabilities to maintain acceptable voltage profile, the combination of SVC and TCSC has better compensating effect as they mitigate against power losses which was observed in their high percentage decrease in power losses compared to the standalone FACTS devices. Keywords: FACTS, optimum location, PSAT, SVC, TCSC, VSSF
