In order to eliminate active and reactive power losses in the system, this paper proposes TOPSIS DE algorithm for determining best location parameter settings Unified Power Flow Controller (UPFC). To mitigate losses, UPFC allocation can be achieved by re-dispatching load flows systems. The cost of incorporating into system. As a consequence, proposed objective feature was created address proble...

In the developing context of distributed generation and flexible smart grids, in order to realize electrochemical storage systems, Modular Multilevel Converters (MMCs) represent an interesting alternative more traditional Voltage Source Inverters (VSIs). This paper presents a novel analytical investigation cell power losses MMCs their dependence on injected common mode voltage. Steady-state are...

The smart transformer (ST) offers several features in a hybrid microgrid due to the presence of both ac and dc links while providing various power flow paths. For ST based meshed microgrid, continuous operation is highly important one effective ways achieve it by minimizing line losses. This paper proposes loss minimization strategy which specific for an islanded microgrid. In such system, batt...
