Özet:

 

Reactive power planning is vital for maintaining the voltage  stability of power systems and evolutionary algorithms are highly  useful for achieving this task.  This paper compares the effectiveness  of the differential evolution (DE) and evolutionary programming (EP)  algorithms in optimizing the reactive power planning of power systems  under line outage contingency conditions.  DE is efficient in  exploration through the search space of the problem, while EP is  simple and easy to implement.  The low cost but fast response  thyristor-controlled series capacitor (TCSC) flexible alternating  current transmission system (FACTS) device is incorporated to control  the power flows.  The optimal settings of the control variables of the  generator voltages, transformer tap settings, and location and  parameter settings of the TCSC are considered for reactive power  planning and the resultant reactive power reserves.  The effectiveness  of the proposed work is tested on the IEEE-30 Bus test system under  the most critical line outage condition.
