The penetration of photovoltaic (PV) has obviously been increased in distribution systems
throughout the world. To sufficiently assess the energy losses with PV, comprehensive …

This paper presents a methodology based on a mesh analysis technique to reduce the
search space of the distribution system reconfiguration problem. After reducing the search …

The conventional transmission loss estimation methods used by power system utilities in
scheduling problems rely on the exactness of the network model. However, the transmission …

This paper presents a methodology for allocation of Bank of Capacitor (BC), based on the
genetic algorithm (GA) and in the use of Sensitivity Analysis (SA). The AS is used to evaluate …

A new methodology for studying the effect of wind power intermittency on electric power
systems is proposed in this paper. The proposed stochastic method is based on the optimal …

In this paper, a mathematical programming approach based on a branch and bound (BB)
algorithm is proposed in order to determine the optimal allocation of thyristor-controlled …

With the derated output, the wind farms provide the active power reserve and contribute to
power system reliability. The impacts of the wind power forecast error (WPFE) on the …

Optimal power flows play a key role in power system operation planning. While most papers
in the literature focus on attaining optima, sequencing paths of optimal control adjustments …

The study evaluates the electrical power system behaviour when wind turbines are inserted
into the power grid. The assessment is made using a sensitivity analysis technique applied …

Active and reactive power flows in distribution systems have a significant impact on the
efficiency of power distribution systems. The optimal placement of distributed power …
