Title
Reduction of power loss using reactive power optimization in a real distribution system
Abstract
Electrical power losses are an important factor for the operation of power systems. Reactive power optimization can reduce power loss. This paper describes the solution of reactive power optimization problem using particle swarm optimization and genetic algorithm. The numerical analysis has been carried out in a part of real power system in Turkey that is managed by MEDAŗ. The goal of this study is minimizing the active power loss of the whole distribution network. Due to the absence of any generators in the distribution network, shunt capacitors and bus voltages are taken as control variables. The values of control variables are determined by the both algorithms and the results are compared.
