Abstract
The application of optimal reactive power flow (ORPF) problem to the NB (New Brunswick) Power company are presented. The potential benefits and the real-time implementation problems of ORPF are discussed. The execution of ORPF program for NE Power network has shown two major benefits: (1) the improvement in the voltage profile and voltage stability, and (2) the savings in active power loss. The improvement in voltage profile can cause less violations and a more stable system from the voltage point of view. A reduction in active power loss gained from ORPF can save a significant amount of money. The total saving for year 1995 predicted in study was in excess of $1100000, and this was supported by the real-time test. These savings can be gained simultaneously with the improvement of the voltage profiles.
