Optimal placement of facts devices to reduce power system losses using evolutionary algorithm

<p>The rapid and enormous growths of the power electronics industries have made flexible AC transmission system (FACTS) devices efficient viable for utility application to increase operation controllability as well flexibility. This research work presents an evolutionary algorithm namely differential evolution (DE) approach optimize location size three main types FACTS in order minimize losses improving network voltage profile. The utilized has been reactively loaded beginning from base 150% performance is analyzed with without confirm its importance within system. Thyristor controlled series capacitor (TCSC), unified flow controller (UPFC) static var compensator (SVC) are used this monitor active reactive carried out adopted examined on IEEE 30-bus test obtained findings given appropriate discussion considered quite encouraging that will be valuable electrical grid restructuring.</p>
