An operationally secure power system is one low probability of blackout or equipment damage. The power system is needed to maintain a designated security level at minimum operating cost. The inclusions of security make power system problem complex. But, because security and optimality are normally conflicting requirement, the separate treatments of both are inappropriate. So, a unified hierarchical formulation is needed. In this paper, the overview of security constrained optimal power flow (SCOPF) is presented and an introduction of parallel distributed formulation to SCOPF is also presented.

신재생 에너지는 발전 시 연료가 들지 않는다는 특징과 친환경적인 이유로 각광 받고 있다. 이러한 특징으로 인해 에너지 독립 계통을 구성하는 데 주요 역할을 한다. 풍력, 태양광, 에너지 저장 장치 등이 분산 전원으로서 계통을 구성하게 되는데, 낮은 효율과 높은 초기 설치비용으로 인해 디젤 발전기나 마이크로 터빈 등 소형 발전기를 예비 전력으로서 부착하는 경우가 대부분이다. 이러한 분산 전원들은 가격이 제각각이며 기존의 화석연료 발전기처럼 비용 함수 모델링이 어려워 경제적 분석이 어려웠다. 이 논문은 이러한 신재생 에너지를 사용한 독립 마이크로그리드를 경제적 관점에서 분석하는 것이 목적이다. 따라서 계통을 분석하는 가장 보편적인 방법인 최적 조류 계산(OPF, Optimal Power Flow)방법과 가격을 최소화하는 점을 찾는 경제급전(ED, Economic Dispatch)방법을 사용하였다. 두 가지 방법의 결과를 비교하여 발전 비용을 줄일 수 있는지에 대해 조사하였다. 7-Bus 가상 계통을 만들어 사용하였고, OPF와 ED의 발전 비용은 PowerFactory$^{(R)}$ 프로그램을 통해 시뮬레이션 하여 데이터를 얻었다.

With the advent of electric power systems moving from a vertically integrated structure to a deregulated environment, calculating reactive power service charges has become a new and challenging theme for market operators. This paper examines various methods for reactive power management adopted throughout various deregulated foreign and domestic markets and then proposes an innovative method to calculate reactive power service charges using a reactive power market in a wholesale electricity market. The reactive power market is operated based on bids from the generating sources and it settles on uniform prices by running the reactive OPF programs of the day-ahead electricity market. The proposed method takes into account recovering not only the costs of installed capacity but also the lost opportunity costs incurred by reducing active power output to increase reactive power production. Based on the result of the reactive OPF program, the generators that produce reactive power within the obligatory range do not make payments whereas the generators producing reactive power beyond the obligatory range receive compensation by the price determined in the market. A numerical sample study is carried out to illustrate the processes and appropriateness of the proposed method.

This paper proposes Nonlinear Interior Point Method (NIPM) including discrete control variables optimal power flow formulations. The algorithm utilizes the robustness in terms of starting point and fast convergence for large scale power system of NIPM and an introduction of rounding penalty function which is augmented in the Lagrangian function to handle discrete control variables. The derived formulation shows a simplified approach to deal with discrete control problems which is implementable in real large scale systems.

This paper presents an improved parallel particle swarm optimization approach (IPPSO) based decomposed network for economic power dispatch with discontinuous fuel cost functions. The range of partial power demand corresponding to the partial output powers near the global optimal solution is determined by a flexible decomposed network strategy and then the final optimal solution is obtained by parallel Particle Swarm Optimization. The proposed approach tested on 6 generating units with smooth cost function, and to 26-bus (6 generating units) with consideration of prohibited zone effect, the simulation results compared with recent global optimization methods (Bee-OPF, GA, MTS, SA, PSO). From the different case studies, it is observed that the proposed approach provides qualitative solution with less computational time compared to various methods available in the literature survey.

Due to the rapid increase of electricity demand, consideration of environmental constraints in optimal power flow (OPF) problems is increasingly important. In Algeria, up to 90% of electricity is produced by thermal generators (vapor, gas). In order to keep the emission of gaseous pollutants like sulfur dioxide (SO2) and Nitrogen (NO2) under the admissible ecological limits, many conventional and global optimization methods have been proposed to study the trade-off relation between fuel cost and emissions. This paper presents an efficient decomposed Parallel GA to solve the multi-objective environmental/economic dispatch problem. At the decomposed stage the length of the original chromosome is reduced successively and adapted to the topology of the new partition. Two subproblems are proposed: the first subproblem is related to the active power planning to minimize the total fuel cost, and the second subproblem is a reactive power planning design based in practical rules to make fine corrections to the voltage deviation and reactive power violation using a specified number of shunt dynamic compensators named Static Var Compensators (SVC). To validate the robustness of the proposed approach, the algorithm proposed was tested on the Algerian 59-bus network test and compared with conventional methods and with global optimization methods (GA, FGA, and ACO). The results show that the approach proposed can converge to the near solution and obtain a competitive solution at a critical situation and within a reasonable time.

When Power market is restructured, we have an argument with selecting Transmission loss factors. First, we determine the method of calculating Transmission loss factor using OPF (Optimal Power Flow) or PF (Power Flow Equation). Then, we decide that we applicate the factor which are identical value all the year or which are floating Transmission loss factor every each hour. In this study, we accomplish the method of computing Transmission cost in competitive market.

전력계통이 점점 더 복잡해지고 광역화됨에 따라서 최적조류계산(Optimal Power Flow:OPF)은 전력계통에서 여러 가지 제약 조건을 만족하면서 경제적이고 안전하게 계통을 운영하기 위한 기법으로 더욱 중요성이 커지고 있다. 종래의 계산방법에는 비선형 계획법, 선형계획법 같은 수치해석적인 방법을 사용하였다. 그러나, 이러한 방법들은 전역 최적해를 구하기 위해서는 목적함수가 convex해야 한다. 또한, 계통 규모가 클 경우, 최적해 수렴이 안 되거나 수렴이 되더라도 시간이 많이 걸리는 단점이 있다. 최근에는 이러한 문제를 극복하고자 여러가지 진화연산기법들이 최적조류계산 문제에 적용되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 PSO알고리즘을 여러 개선된 형태로 비교 연구하여, 제안한 방법중 가장 최적화된 결론을 도출하기 위하여, IEEE 30,118 모선 계통의 최적조류계산 문제에 적용하였다.
