In this paper, a novel heuristic optimization algorithm called differential evolution (DE)
technique has been proposed to solve the optimal location of FACTS devices in deregulated …

The voltage magnitude and reactive power control of a large power system are computed on
the basis of its dynamic voltage controllers, which may overcome the limitations of a …

Nowadays, multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) methods are used widely in many fields
of research and applications. Many studies have shown that MCDM approaches are …

Flexible AC transmission system are widley used in power sytems to ensure voltage stability,
in virtue of their high cost the choise of the best location in electrical network is essential …

This paper presents an algorithm based on tabu search for locating and sizing FACTS
devices in a microgrid. The joint location of the different type of devices improves the …

Voltage and reactive power become one of the most critical aspects to monitor and sustain
