Abstract

Congestion management is one of the important issues in the deregulated power systems. There are several methods to eliminate congestion. Utilizing FACTS devices is an appropriate option for large-scale and quick control of flows of transmission lines. FACTS devices such as Thyristor Controlled Series Capacitor (TCSC) can help to mitigate the transmitting flow of power in the congested lines, which leads to an increase in the network loading ability as well as reduction of both losses and production costs. Due to the considerably high price of FACTS devices, it is important to determine their optimum location on the network. Accordingly, in this paper, the Antlion optimization algorithm (ALO) has been employed to conduct a congestion management analysis to determine the optimal location for the installation of TCSC, which is simulated on an IEEE 14-bus test system subject to satisfy the constraints of the market environment.

Abstract

Due to the increasing development of computer systems and information networks, power grids should change extensively too. Nowadays, substantial movement has begun to implement the Smart Grid industry around the world. Since with the creation of smart electricity grids, it is possible to access the internal network from the external spaces, it is also necessary to protect information and data against unauthorized access. Therefore, a firewall should be used for information security. The firewall based on existing security regulations, decides which data is incoming to the network or going out of the network. Considering the discussions of passive defense topics at the national level and also the high importance of information security in Smart Grids, in this paper, in addition to examining the Firewalls, its advantages and disadvantages are also stated. Although the firewall has a major role in establishing security, and its installation and appropriate configuration can only be one of the primary activities in this field, we should also take advantage of other security mechanisms to enhance the security of the Smart Grid.
