Power grids are critical infrastructure in modern society, and there are well-established
theories for the stability and control of traditional power grids under a centralized paradigm …

The genesis of early power systems and electric power grids during the past 130 years was
enabled by automation and control of electromechanical machinery and power delivery …

The power flow equations relate the power injections and voltages in an electric power
system and are therefore key to many power system optimization and control problems …

Recently, integration of distributed generation (DG) in distribution systems has increased to
high penetration levels. The impact of DG units on the voltage stability margins has become …

Voltage Stability of Electric Power Systems presents a clear description of voltage instability
and collapse phenomena. It proposes a uniform and coherent theoretical framework for …

This paper presents an efficient and reliable evolutionary-based approach to solve the
optimal power flow (OPF) problem. The proposed approach employs particle swarm …

In this paper, a computer package called CPFLOW, which is a comprehensive tool for
tracing power system steady-state stationary behavior due to parameter variations, is …

This paper discusses the integration of solar photovoltaic (PV) and battery energy storage
(BES) units for reducing energy loss and enhancing voltage stability. Here, each …

As mentioned in the previous chapter, the continuation method is a mathematical path-
following methodology used to solve systems of nonlinear equations. The numerical …

The work described in this paper was motivated by a perceived increase in the frequency at
which power system operators are encountering high stress in bulk transmission systems …
