Abstract

This paper presents an algorithm for the parallel solution of the security constrained optimal power flow (SCOPF) problem in a decentralized framework, consisting of regions, using a price-based mechanism that models each region as an economic unit. We first solve the distributed optimal power flow (OPF) problem to determine the maximum secure simultaneous transfer capabilityof each tie-line between adjacent regions by taking into account only the security constraints imposed on the tie-lines. In this article, the line outage distribution factors (LODF) calculated at the current state are used to formulate the appended constraints. Once the secure transfer capability of each tie-line is determined, the intraregional SCOPF is performed using the conventional linear programming (LP) approach. A description of the inclusionof security constraints with the distributed optimal power flow algorithm will be given, followed by the case studies for Korea Electric Power System.
