Ubicación de un sistema de compensación reactiva en la red de transmisión de energía eléctrica basado en programación no lineal entera mixta considerando cargabilidad de la red

Abstract

The present investigation develops an optimization model for the optimal location of the reactive compensation device called STATCOM in power systems, the optimizer model developed is based on mixed integer nonlinear programming or MINLP and aims to reduce reactive power losses with which consequently reduces the chargeability of the lines by generating a better balance of reactive power in each bar of the system, partly eliminating the need for this power to be covered by the generation units available in the system. As a positive effect, the voltage profiles in the system are also improved, thus also improving a service quality parameter. The model has been tested in IEEE 9 and 39 bar type systems and as a limit 1, 2 and 3 devices have been set for the 9 bar system while for the 39 bar system the maximum insertion of 1, 2 has been allowed and 5 devices in the system.
