“…These methods effectively solve optimization issues when global rather than local solutions are preferred. We have successfully employed these methods to handle optimization problems like Atom Search -Optimization [13,14], and metaheuristic -optimization programming algorithms [15]. Literature addresses these issues.…”

In electrical power systems, FACTS devices effectively control power flow and change bus voltages, leading to lower system losses and excellent system stability. The article discusses the research from the last decade that evaluated various methods for placing FACTS devices using the meta-heuristic approach to address the positioning of FACTS devices to maintain proper bus voltages and control line flow and improve the overall system efficiency. The need for more efficient electricity systems management has given rise to innovative technologies in power generation and transmission. The combined cycle power station is a good example of a new development in power generation and flexible AC transmission systems, generally known as FACTS, are controllers that improve transmission systems. Worldwide transmission systems are undergoing continuous changes and restructuring. They are becoming more heavily loaded and are being operated in ways not originally envisioned. Transmission systems must be flexible to react to more diverse generation and load patterns. In addition, the economical utilization of transmission system assets is of vital importance to enable utilities in industrialized countries to remain competitive and to survive. In developing countries, the optimized use of transmission systems investments is also important to support industry, create employment and utilize efficiently scarce economic resources. FACTS controller is a technology that responds to these needs. It significantly alters the way transmission systems are developed and controlled together with improvements in asset utilization, system flexibility and system performance. Several models and techniques suggest that devices can be placed in a particular location with different parameter settings. Finally, the optimization problem improved system performance by decreasing power loss, improving the voltage profile and power angle at each bus, raising the L-index, and minimizing generating costs. FACTS devices can increase the transmission line’s capacity for transferring power by increasing the voltage at its terminals at both ends and reducing line reactance. The FACTS controller must be installed in the distribution and transmission lines to maximize the power flow. Various techniques are used for the best placement of FACTS controllers, including analytical methods, arithmetic programming approaches, meta-heuristic optimization approaches, and hybrid approaches—this paper analyses numerous analytical and meta-heuristic optimization techniques to place FACTS controllers in the most advantageous locations. The fundamental problems in intelligent power systems, such as improving stability, power quality, and managing congestion, are discussed in this study, along with several applications of FACTS devices. The cutting-edge power systems of today provide users with constant, high-quality power through smart grids and smart meters.

The Power System can become unstable due to disturbances. To enhance system stability the Unified Power Flow Controller (UPFC) is tuned and allocated in the System. In this paper, a brief review of UPFC tuning and allocation studies for power systems stability is presented. The databases consulted for literature are the IEEE Xplore, ScienceDirect, Google Scholar and IOP Publications. The search terms used are Allocation, Tuning, UPFC, Power System and Stability to find the literature used in this review. A total of 26 Journal articles and conference papers were found and reviewed based on tuning and allocation studies. The Researchers applied Fuzzy coordination, Genetic Algorithm (GA), Particles Swarm Optimization (PSO), Grey Wolf Optimization (GWO) and Linear Quadratic Tracker (LQT) to tune the UPFC for enhancing power system stability. For studies on UPFC allocation in power systems, the Researchers applied frequency response of power system transfer function, power flow, Tabu Search (TS), PSO and GA. For allocation based on optimization, the Researchers minimized power losses, voltage index and investment costs considering equality and inequality constraints.
