Global Journal of Research in Engineering

At present, power system operation, control, Management becomes very complex due to continuously increasing demand. Flexible AC Transmission System (FACTS) controllers are used to increase power transfer capability of the transmission lines closer to their limits. This paper proposed a methodology to solve Optimal Power Flow (OPF) problem in the presence of Thyristor Controlled Series Capacitor (TCSC) while satisfying system operating and practical constraints. A novel cost objective function is formulated by combining investment cost of the TCSC with the conventional fuel cost function. The proposed methodology is tested on standard IEEE-14 bus test system with supporting results.
