Deregulated Power System

In a deregulated power system as the power demand is increasing rapidly, with a limited power system framework, it is very difficult to transmit bulk power. This limitation is due to the thermal constraints of the transmission line. There is a need to increase the loadability of the line without hitting the thermal limits of the system. Thyristor Controlled Series Compensator (TCSC) is used in this paper to reduce congestion in the system by reducing losses and increasing the loadability of the lines. The sensitivity factor applied to optimally allocate TCSC is Disparity Line Utilization Factor (DLUF) and parameter setting is optimized using Grey Wolf Optimisation (GWO). The lines are sorted in terms of the degree of congestion with the help of LUF and then optimal location of TCSC is obtained using DLUF to minimize congestion. TCSC parameters are optimally calculated by the multivariable objective function applying GWO. The method is validated on IEEE 30 bus system. The congestion is reduced and the loadability of a line is increased by the algorithm used in this paper. Effects of congestion alleviation by proposed method are suitably demonstrated in this paper for reduced real and reactive power loss, reduced voltage deviation and incremented security margin of the test system. Results obtained by the proposed algorithm is establishing an upper hand over other state of art algorithms in terms of solution of problem formulated for congestion alleviation.

In recent years, the integration of distributed generators (DGs) in radial distribution systems (RDS) has received considerable attention in power system research. The major purpose of DG integration is to decrease the power losses and improve the voltage profiles that directly lead to improving the overall efficiency of the power system. Therefore, this paper proposes a hybrid optimization technique based on analytical and metaheuristic algorithms for optimal DG allocation in RDS. In the proposed technique, the loss sensitivity factor (LSF) is utilized to reduce the search space of the DG locations, while the analytical technique is used to calculate initial DG sizes based on a mathematical formulation. Then, a metaheuristic sine cosine algorithm (SCA) is applied to identify the optimal DG allocation based on the LSF and analytical techniques instead of using random initialization. To prove the superiority and high performance of the proposed hybrid technique, two standard RDSs, IEEE 33-bus and 69-bus, are considered. Additionally, a comparison between the proposed techniques, standard SCA, and other existing optimization techniques is carried out. The main findings confirmed the enhancement in the convergence of the proposed technique compared with the standard SCA and the ability to allocate multiple DGs in RDS.

Application of UPFC for enhancement of voltage profile and minimization of losses using Fast Voltage Stability Index (FVSI)Transmission line loss minimization in a power system is an important research issue and it can be achieved by means of reactive power compensation. The unscheduled increment of load in a power system has driven the system to experience stressed conditions. This phenomenon has also led to voltage profile depreciation below the acceptable secure limit. The significance and use of Flexible AC Transmission System (FACTS) devices and capacitor placement is in order to alleviate the voltage profile decay problem. The optimal value of compensating devices requires proper optimization technique, able to search the optimal solution with less computational burden. This paper presents a technique to provide simultaneous or individual controls of basic system parameter like transmission voltage, impedance and phase angle, thereby controlling the transmitted power using Unified Power Flow Controller (UPFC) based on Bacterial Foraging (BF) algorithm. Voltage stability level of the system is defined on the Fast Voltage Stability Index (FVSI) of the lines. The IEEE 14-bus system is used as the test system to demonstrate the applicability and efficiency of the proposed system. The test result showed that the location of UPFC improves the voltage profile and also minimize the real power loss.

The Impact

One of the most important tasks of System Operator (SO) is to manage congestion as it threatens system security and may cause rise in electricity price resulting in market inefficiency. In corrective action congestion management schemes, it is crucial for SO to select the most sensitive generators to re-schedule their real and reactive powers and the loads to curtail in extreme congestion management. This paper proposed the selection of most sensitive generators and loads to re-schedule their generation and load curtailment based on the improved line flow sensitivity indices to manage congestion. The impact of slack bus on power flow sensitivity factors has been determined to encourage fair competition in the electricity markets. Effect of bilateral and multilateral transactions, and impact of multi-line congestion on congestion cost has also been studied. The generators’ reactive power bid has been modeled by a continuous differentiable tangent hyperbolic function. The proposed concept of congestion management has been tested on a practical 75-bus Indian system and IEEE-118-bus test system.

This paper proposes RBF-NN for classification and performance evaluation of static security assessment in deregulated power system. This study suggests an attribute selection and classification algorithms for static security evaluation (SSE) and its impact is proposed. For the base case, pure pool dispatch (with no bilateral transactions) and bilateral transaction comparisons are discussed on IEEE57- bus system. In this paper, a comprehensive comparison of AI classifiers to examine whether the power system is secured under steady-state operating conditions is presented. The proposed classifier is implemented on a 30 and 57 IEEE test system. To assess the actual overall performance regarding studying techniques, this research proposes performance evaluation schemes vis CCR, TPR and TNR and implemented on various IEEE test systems. The simulation results have shown the powerfulness of the proposed method as compare to another proposed AI classifiers.

The Impact

A current source converter (CSC) based static synchronous compensator (STATCOM) is a shunt flexible AC transmission system (FACTS) device, which has a vital role as a stability support for small and large transient instability in an interconnected power network. This paper investigates the impact of a novel and robust pole-shifting controller for CSC-STATCOM to improve the transient stability of the multimachine power system. The proposed algorithm utilizes CSC based STATCOM to supply reactive power to the test system to maintain the transient stability in the event of severe contingency. Firstly, modeling and pole-shifting controller design for CSC based STATCOM are stated. After that, we show the impact of the proposed method in the multimachine power system with different disturbances. Here, applicability of the proposed scheme is demonstrated through simulation in MATLAB and the simulation results show an improvement in the transient stability of multimachine power system with CSC-STATCOM. Also clearly shown, the robustness and effectiveness of CSC-STATCOM are better rather than other shunt FACTS devices (SVC and VSC-STATCOM) by comparing the results in this paper.
