Optimal Allocation of Series FACTS Devices in Large Scale Systems
Xiaohu Zhang, Kevin Tomsovic, Aleksandar Dimitrovski
Series FACTS devices, such as the variable series reactor (VSR), have the ability to continuously regulate the transmission line reactance so as to control power flow. This paper p…
The Allocation of a Variable Series Reactor Considering AC Constraints and Contingencies
Xiaohu Zhang, Chunlei Xu, Di Shi +5
The Variable Series Reactors (VSRs) can efficiently control the power flow through the adjustment of the line reactance. When they are appropriately allocated in the power network,…
Bilevel Optimization Based Transmission Expansion Planning Considering Phase Shifting Transformer
Xiaohu Zhang, Di Shi, Zhiwei Wang +4
In this paper, the phase shifting transformer (PST) is introduced in the Transmission Expansion Planning (TEP) problem considering significant wind power integration. The proposed…
Optimal Investment on Series FACTS Devices Considering Contingencies
Xiaohu Zhang, Kevin Tomsovic, Aleksandar Dimitrovski
Series FACTS devices are capable of relieving congestion and reducing generation costs in the power system. This paper proposes a planning model to optimally allocate TCSCs in the…
Optimal Allocation of Static Var Compensator via Mixed Integer Conic Programming
Xiaohu Zhang, Di Shi, Zhiwei Wang +4
Shunt FACTS devices, such as, a Static Var Compensator (SVC), are capable of providing local reactive power compensation. They are widely used in the network to reduce the real pow…
Security Constrained Multi-Stage Transmission Expansion Planning Considering a Continuously Variable Series Reactor
Xiaohu Zhang, Kevin Tomsovic, Aleksandar Dimitrovski
This paper introduces a Continuously Variable Series Reactor (CVSR) to the transmission expansion planning (TEP) problem. The CVSR is a FACTS-like device which has the capability o…
