Certain investigations on reactive Power planning of restructured Power system using nature inspired Algorithms

Abstract

The need for electricity energy is on the increase all over the newlineworld to parallel this situation the necessity of uninterrupted energy supply newlineto consumers occurs In large electricity energy systems sometimes it is newlineunable to control bus voltage levels causing significant voltage collapses over newlinethe grid Inadequate reactive power is one of the most important reasons of newlinethese collapses Reactive power has a significant role for maintaining the newlinevoltages at transmission lines in required limits and increasing power transfer newlinecapability of the system The magnitude of reactive power and its effects on newlinesystem stability are very important while system works hardly newline newline
