Reactive power compensation of Saudi electricity-western operation area using dynamic programming and genetic algorithm
This paper presents a study of the 380-kV network of Saudi Electricity Company in the Western Operation Area (SEC-WOA). Where, the effect of using series, shunt, and mixed capacitors for reactive power compensation on the network is investigated. Three different load levels namely light, medium, and...
