Abstract
Due to the rapid increase of electricity demand and the deregulation of electricity markets, power systems tend to operate closer to stability boundaries. The scheme of preventive control should bring in a tradeoff between economics and security, which are often the two major inconsistent requirements for the daily operation of many power systems in the world. Optimal power flow (OPF) is a powerful tool to weaken the conflict between economy and security, but the main obstacle faced is that, the complexity involved for OPF with transient stability constraints is several orders of magnitude higher than that of conventional OPF with merely static constraints. Therefore, consideration of Transient Stability Constraints in Optimal Power Flow (OPF) problems is becoming more and more imperative. FACTS devices such as Thyristor Controlled Series Compensator (TCSC) can be very effective to power system security in case of a contingency. In this paper, we concentrate on the improving transient stability-constrained optimal power flow to against single contingencies via the use of TCSC. Study results on IEEE 30-bus system have proved the effectiveness of using TCSC to improve transient stability-constrained optimal power flow (TSCOPF).
