Improving Multi-Objective Voltage Stability by FACTS Devices Placement Through Circular Optimization Algorithm

Abstract

Analyses of voltage stability in the presence of STATCOM has been premeditated, focusing on the relationship between voltage stability collapse and power system voltage stability. STATCOM and its allocation expected to improve the power system's voltage stability. To boost the voltage profile of the system, a circular optimization approach is employed to determine the best sizing of STATCOM. On IEEE 14 bus test bed, simulation results are confirmed using several STATCOMs in various circumstances.
