In order to eliminate active and reactive power
losses in the power system, this paper proposes TOPSIS and DE
algorithm for determining the best location and parameter
settings for the Unified Power Flow Controller (UPFC). To
mitigate power losses, the best UPFC allocation can be achieved
by re-dispatching load flows in power systems. The cost of
incorporating UPFC into the power system. As a consequence,
the proposed objective feature in this paper was created to
address this problem. The IEEE 14-bus and IEEE 30-bus
systems were used as case studies in the MATLAB simulations.
When compared to particle swarm optimization, the results show
that DE is a simple to use, reliable, and efficient optimization
technique than (PSO). The network's active and reactive power
losses can be significantly reduced by putting UPFC in the
optimum position determined by TOPSIS ranking method.
