A local line-based voltage stability index is used to determine the critical cont...

Abstract This paper presents a solution for the transmission congestion management considering voltage stability issues using optimal generation rescheduling. While practicing optimization techniques, control variables remain under their upper or lower limits but it may lead to lowered level of security after optimization. To counterbalance this adverse effect, modified objective function has b...
