Abstract
In this paper we study the distributions of the number of real solutions to the power flow equations over varying electrical parameters. We develop a new monodromy and parameter homotopy continuation method for quickly finding all solutions to the power flow equations. We apply this method to find distributions of the number of real solutions to the power flow equations and compare these distributions to those of random polynomials. It is observed that while the power flow equations tend to admit many fewer real-valued solutions than a bound on the total number of complex solutions, for low levels of load they tend to admit many more than a corresponding random polynomial.
