Abstract

Optimal reactive power dispatch (ORPD) is the most functional part of reactive power dispatch technique, by which an effective solution of power flow can be befitted and the system parameters can be arranged in such a value, so that network power losses could be minimized. The ORPD problem can be solved as a single-objective as well as multi-objective optimization problem with the help of various conventional techniques as well as modern developed techniques like differential evolution, particle swarm optimization, genetic algorithm, Jaya algorithm, etc. This paper is an attempt to minimize transmission line power losses by introducing solar energy sources in addition to the existing conventional sources to power network system along with adjusting the reactive power controlled parameter without violating technical equality constraints and inequality constraints. The proposed designed model has been analyzed for IEEE 14-bus and IEEE 30-bus test systems by using Jaya algorithm. The simulation result with comparing others’ existing result with and without the inclusion of solar energy has shown that the proposed designed model is effective and profitable for planning an interconnected reliable power system network.
