Load Flow (or power flow) is the most essential analysis for power system planning,
operation and control providing the initial conditions (equilibria) for power system analyses …

This paper describes the two test systems for voltage stability studies set up by the IEEE PES
Task Force on “Test Systems for Voltage Stability Analysis and Security Assessment” under …

With the increasing penetration of renewable resources and the retirements of conventional
coal-fired generation units, power systems are undergoing significant transformation with the …

Over the years the reliability test systems such as the IEEE Reliability Test System (RTS) and
Roy Billinton Test System (RBTS) have been used extensively by researchers, as a bench …

With increased energy demand, less new transmission, and open access, the power system
is experiencing a much greater level of power transfer. These new requirements push the …

This paper develops a risk-based integrated index that reflects power system reliability and
security both directly and indirectly. Direct characteristics may express the risk to not fully …

This paper proposes a comprehensive approach for bulk power system reliability
assessment. Specifically, a framework of security-constrained adequacy evaluation (SCAE) …

Bus voltage is a direct reliability indicator of a transmission network because it is related to
system reactive and active power balance especially during a contingency state. This study …

The stability and security of power systems are of utmost importance to planning and
operation engineers. As demand on grid resources increase, and contingency impacts on …

Photovoltaic (PV) DGs can be optimized to provide reactive power support to the grid,
although this feature is currently rarely utilized as most DG systems are designed to operate …
