Reducing fuel, energy loss, investment, operation, and maintenance costs for transmission power grids with FACTS and renewable energy.

ABSTRACT: The study optimizes the location and size of wind power plants (WPs), Thyristor Controlled Series Capacitor (TCSC), and Static VAr Compensator (SVC) in the IEEE 30-bus transmission power grid to minimize the total cost of loss, fuel of thermal generating units, and TCSC and SVC in one operating hour. The investment, operation, and maintenance costs of the WPs, TCSC, and SVC are converted into one hour, and the peak hour with the highest load demand is applied. The constriction factor-based particle swarm optimization (CF-PSO), Coot optimization algorithm (COOT), Equilibrium optimizer (EO), and Hippopotamus optimization algorithm (HO) are applied for the grid. The study cases are executed to choose the most suitable algorithm, and EO is selected. The results indicate that combining two TCSC
