This paper presents an advanced particle swarm optimization Algorithm for solving the reactive power problem in power system. Bacterial Foraging Optimization Algorithm (BFOA) has recently emerged as a very powerful technique for real parameter optimization. In order to overcome the delay in optimization and to further enhance the performance of BFO, this paper proposed a new hybrid algorithm combining the features of BFOA and Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) called advanced bacterial foraging-oriented particle swarm optimization (ABFPSO) algorithm for solving reactive power problem. The simulation results demonstrate good performance of the ABFPSO in solving an optimal reactive power problem. In order to evaluate the proposed algorithm, it has been tested on IEEE 57 bus system and compared to other algorithms.

This paper presents Tailored Particle Swarm Optimization (TPSO) algorithm for solving optimal reactive power problem. Particle Swarm optimization algorithm based on Membrane Computing is proposed to solve the problem. Tailored Particle Swarm Optimization (TPSO) algorithm designed with the framework and rules of a cell-like P systems, and particle swarm optimization with the neighbourhood search.  In order to evaluate the efficiency of the proposed algorithm, it has been tested on standard IEEE 118 & practical 191 bus test systems and compared to other specified algorithms. Simulation results show that Tailored Particle Swarm Optimization (TPSO) algorithm is superior to other algorithms in reducing the real power loss.

In this paper a Progressive particle swarm optimization algorithm (PPS) is used to solve optimal reactive power problem. A Particle Swarm Optimization algorithm maintains a swarm of particles, where each particle has position vector and velocity vector which represents the potential solutions of the particles. These vectors are modernized from the information of global best (Gbest) and personal best (Pbest) of the swarm. All particles move in the search space to obtain optimal solution. In this paper a new concept is introduced of calculating the velocity of the particles with the help of Euclidian Distance conception. This new-fangled perception helps in finding whether the particle is closer to Pbest or Gbest and updates the velocity equation consequently. By this we plan to perk up the performance in terms of the optimal solution within a rational number of generations. The projected PPS has been tested on standard IEEE 30 bus test system and simulation results show clearly the better performance of the proposed algorithm in reducing the real power loss with control variables are within the limits.

In this paper, Amended Particle Swarm Optimization Algorithm (APSOA) is proposed with the combination of Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) and Gravitational Search Algorithm (GSA) for solving the optimal reactive power dispatch Problem. PSO is one of the most widely used evolutionary algorithms in hybrid methods due to its simplicity, convergence speed, an ability of searching Global optimum. GSA has many advantages such as, adaptive learning rate, memory-less algorithm and, good and fast convergence. Proposed hybridized algorithm is aimed at reduce the probability of trapping in local optimum. In order to assess the efficiency of proposed algorithm, it has been tested on Standard IEEE 30 system and compared to other standard algorithms. The simulation results demonstrate worthy performance of the Amended Particle Swarm Optimization Algorithm (APSOA) in solving optimal reactive power dispatch problem.
