Congestion management is one of the most important issues for secure and reliable system operations. One of the most practiced techniques for congestion management is rescheduling the real power output of generators in the system. In this paper Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) is used to determine the optimal generation levels to alleviate transmission congestion. Numerical results on IEEE 30 Bus test system is presented and the experimental outcomes demonstrate that PSO is one among the demanding optimization methods which are certainly capable of obtaining higher quality solutions for the proposed problem.

This paper presents Improved Frog Leaping (IFL) algorithm for solving optimal reactive power problem.  Comprehensive exploration capability of Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) and   good local search ability of Frog Leaping Algorithm (FLA) has been hybridized to solve the reactive power problem and it overcomes the shortcomings of premature convergence. In order to evaluate the validity of the proposed Improved Frog Leaping (IFL) algorithm, it has been tested in Standard IEEE 57,118 bus systems and compared to other standard algorithms. Simulation results show that proposed Improved Frog Leaping (IFL) algorithm has reduced the real power loss considerably and voltage profiles are within the limits.

This paper proposes Enhanced Frog Leaping Algorithm (EFLA) to solve the optimal reactive power problem. Frog leaping algorithm (FLA) replicates the procedure of frogs passing though the wetland and foraging deeds. Set of virtual frogs alienated into numerous groups known as “memeplexes”. Frog’s position’s turn out to be closer in every memeplex after few optimization runs and certainly, this crisis direct to premature convergence. In the proposed Enhanced Frog Leaping Algorithm (EFLA) the most excellent frog information is used to augment the local search in each memeplex and initiate to the exploration bound acceleration. To advance the speed of convergence two acceleration factors are introduced in the exploration plan formulation. Proposed Enhanced Frog Leaping Algorithm (EFLA) has been tested in standard IEEE 14,300 bus test system and simulation results show the projected algorithm reduced the real power loss considerably.

Congestion management is one of the important functions performed by system operator in deregulated electricity market to ensure secure operation of transmission system. This paper proposes two effective methods for transmission congestion alleviation in deregulated power system. Congestion or overload in transmission networks is alleviated by rescheduling of generators and/or load shedding. The two objectives conflicting in nature (1) transmission line over load and (2) congestion cost are optimized in this paper. The multiobjective fuzzy evolutionary programming (FEP) and nondominated sorting genetic algorithm II methods are used to solve this problem. FEP uses the combined advantages of fuzzy and evolutionary programming (EP) techniques and gives better unique solution satisfying both objectives, whereas nondominated sorting genetic algorithm (NSGA) II gives a set of Pareto-optimal solutions. The methods propose an efficient and reliable algorithm for line overload alleviation due to critical line outages in a deregulated power markets. The quality and usefulness of the algorithm is tested on IEEE 30 bus system.
