Abstract
This paper presents a nature inspired heuristic optimization algorithm based on lightning progression called the propagation algorithm (PA) to solve optimal reactive power problem. It is from the imitated natural phenomenon of lightning and the procedure of step frontrunner propagation using the theory of fast particles. Three particle kinds are established to distinguish the transition particles that produce the first step frontrunner population, the space particles that attempt to turn out to be the frontrunner, and the prime particle that epitomize the particle thrilled from best positioned step frontrunner. The proposed PA has been tested in standard IEEE 30,57,118 bus test systems and simulation results show clearly about the better performance of the proposed algorithm in reducing the real power loss with control variables within the limits.
