Optimal planning and operation of static VAR compensators in a distribution system with non‐linear loads

“…where ‫ܫ‬ is the injected current by the D-SVC located at node ‫.ݍ‬ The savings can be obtained by multiplying the total reduction of power losses by a constant ‫ܭ‬ ($/kW) [29], which represents the savings for using cheaper conductors on the grid:…”

“…By first considering the scenario in which no D-SVC is installed, the total energy losses at segment k of the grid, during a period ܶ , is given by (29). Note that for this analysis, discretized time is considered.…”

“…These savings are based on the reduction of the energy generated by the bulk supply point due to the presence of D-SVC. By first considering the scenario in which no D-SVC is installed, the total energy losses at segment k of the grid, during a period T, are given in (29). Note that for this analysis, discretised time is considered E Lk (t) = ∑ t = 0…”

“…In the case that more than one D-SVC is employed, (33) can be adapted by replacing I C with I C † , given in (27). The energy savings are calculated by multiplying the reduction of energy losses into a constant K E [$/kWh] [29], which represents the energy cost:…”
