Congestion Management (CM) is an attractive research area in the electrical power transmission with the power compensation abilities. Reconfiguration and the Flexible Alternating Current Transmission Systems (FACTS) devices utilization relieve the congestion in transmission lines. The lack of optimal power (real and reactive) usage with the better transfer capability and minimum cost is still challenging issue in the CM. The prediction of suitable place for the energy resources to control the power flow is the major requirement for power handling scenario. This paper proposes the novel optimization principle to select the best location for the energy resources to achieve the real-reactive power compensation. The parameters estimation and the selection of values with the best fitness through the Symmetrical Distance Travelling Optimization (SDTO) algorithm establishes the proper controlling of optimal power flow in the transmission lines. The modified fitness function formulation based on the bus parameters, index estimation correspond to the optimal reactive power usage enhances the power transfer capability with the minimum cost. The comparative analysis between the proposed method with the existing power management techniques regarding the parameters of power loss, cost value, load power and energy loss confirms the effectiveness of proposed work in the distributed renewable energy systems.

In this paper, in order to analyze the PMU data of the accident section, we collected the raw data of a total of 35 PMU installed at the Yeonggwang substation and tried to find a way to analyze the data, and analyzed the data using Excel format and formula. As a result, the three-phase voltage and current data of the PMU were calculated using formulas in Excel and interpreted as effective and reactive power, and it was possible to check the effective and reactive power of the accident section through the graph to see why it was different from before the accident. As a result, it was confirmed that each power was greatly reduced in the graph of the effective and reactive power of the accident section, and it was confirmed that the loss occurred as the power of the accident section was greatly reduced.

This paper presents a new method for optimal real and reactive power dispatch for the economic operation of a power system. Unlike the usual approach of minimizing the transmission loss, this method minimizes the total production cost not only for the real power optimization problem, but also for the reactive power optimization. The control variables are real power generation of units for real power optimization, and reactive power optimization. The constraints are the operating limits on these control variables and the limits on the bus voltages. Methematical models are developed to represent the sensitivity relationships between dependent and control variables for both real and reactive power optimization modules, and thus eliminate the use of B-coefficients. In order to handle many functional inequality constraints, a modified version of the gradient projection method is developed for optimization procedure, and has shown a remarkable advantage in computation efficiency.

Various problems such as increase of power loss and voltage instability may often occur in the case of low load power factor. The demand of reactive power increases continuously with the growth of active power and restructuring of electric power companies makes the comprehensive management of reactive power a troublesome problem, so that the systematic control of load power factor is required. In this paper, the load power factor sensitivity of generation cost is derived and it is used for effectively determining the locations of reactive power compensation devices and for enhancing the load power factor appropriately. In addition, voltage variation penalty cost is introduced and integrated costs including voltage variation penalty cost are used for determining the value of load power factor from the point of view of economic investment and voltage regulation. It is shown through application to a large-scale power system that the load power factor can be enhanced effectively using the load power factor sensitivity and the integrated cost.

This paper proposes a loss minimization algorithm for doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG) by controlling the stator reactive power. The proposed strategy directly controls the rotor current to achieve the operating point of minimum generator loss and maximum power point tracking. The maximum power is obtained by tracking the q-axis rotor current with generator speed variation and the minimum generator loss is achieved by controlling the d-axis rotor current. Experimental results are shown to verify the validity of the proposed scheme.

This paper presents an algorithm for optimal reactive power dispatch problem based on Improved Genetic Algorithm(IGA). Optimal Reactive Power Dispatch (ORPD) is particularized to the minimization of transmission line losses by suitable selection of generator reactive power outputs and transformer tap setting. For the objective, in this paper, Loss Re-Distribution Algorithm(LRDA) is new applied to the equality constraint of ORPD. The proposed method has been evaluated on the IEEE 30 bus system. Results of the application of the method are compared with a base case.

The management of power factor(PF) in the distribution line is treated according to the measurement a month about the feeder unit at the substation. In Korea, we have not researched into power factor in distribution system due to it's less weight. The reactive power in advanced countries is controlled automatically by the compensative condenser switch on/off under the monitoring. This paper first presents the optimal condenser position and proper capacity by lagrangue factor ${\lambda}_{Q}$ which is the line loss index about reactive power unit. Therefore, the largest ${\lambda}_{Q}$ node is the condenser injection point and we find out the best condenser capacity when the line loss is saturated by the moderation of condenser volume. By this method, we suggest 0.6% uprising PF by injection of 15 kVA condenser. Additionally, PF is analysed into 5 areas; large city, middle city, small city, farm village, fishing village by the use of Power Platform which is classified the same concept of the low load management in KEPCO. Two feeders of each area are selected by the worst results of PF in specified areas.

The low load power factor causes various problems such as the increase of the power loss and the voltage instability. The demand of reactive power increases continuously with the growth of active power and the restructuring of electric power companies makes the integrated management of ractive power troublesome, from which the systematic control of load power factor is required. In this paper, the load power factor sensitivity of the generation cost is derived and its effects in supplying the reactive power and enhancing the load power factor are analyzed in a small-scale power system. The load power factor sensitivity of the generation cost is applied for determining the locations and capacities of reactive power compensation devices. It is shown that the generation cost can be reduced and the system power factor can be enhanced effectively using the load power factor sensitivity.

In order to improve the voltage profile of the system we introduce the reactive power devices. However, it is difficult to know which bus will be the most effective bus when we inject the reactive power supplier in it. This paper systematically determines indices of the system in order to locate reactive power devices in a power system. To prove the validity and effectiveness of the system we apply the proposed method to the 9 bus system.
