Description
Summary:This paper proposes a combined approach to determine the optimal allocation of different shunt compensation devices (shunt capacitor, static var compensator, and static synchronous compensator) in power systems. The developed approach is a combination between Lightning Attachment Procedure Optimization (LAPO) and loss sensitivity indices (LSIs). Different objective functions such as enhancement of voltage stability index, improvement of voltage profile and minimization of total power losses are considered. Two loss sensitivity indices (LSIs) are developed to reduce the search space in all buses and the total computation time. The developed algorithm is validated using standard IEEE 14-bus and IEEE 30-bus test systems. The developed algorithm successes to achieve the objective functions with the better performance compared with other wellknown optimization techniques such as Teaching learning-based optimization (TLBO), genetic algorithm (GA) and particle swarm optimization (PSO).
