Abstract
In competitive environment of electricity market, management of
congestion has become utmost important so that the benefits of
competitive electricity market remains intact. In this paper, one such
scheme has been proposed to manage congestion efficiently. This has been
accomplished by implementing TCSC at its optimal location as well as at
its optimal parameter setting. Line flow sensitivity factor has been
proposed to find the optimal location of TCSC. The optimal parameter
setting of TCSC is obtained using particle swarm optimization algorithm.
The optimal location and parameter setting of TCSC thus obtained with
proposed method are validated through implementation of TCSC based on
its minimum installation cost. Two different penalty factors for
violation of system constraints are introduced to manage the congestion
efficiently. The proposed method is tested on IEEE 30-bus system and
IEEE 118-bus system. A 33-bus Indian network has also been considered to
analyze the effectiveness of the proposed methodology.31 Jan 2020Submitted to Engineering Reports 05 Feb 2020Submission Checks Completed
