Optimal Placement of HVDC-VSC in AC System Using Self-Adaptive Bonobo Optimizer to Solve Optimal Power Flows: A Case Study of the Algerian Electrical Network
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: Modern electrical power networks make extensive use of high voltage direct current transmission systems based on voltage source converters due to their advantages in terms of both cost and flexibility. Moreover, incorporating a direct current link adds more complexity to the optimal power flow computation. This paper presents a new meta-heuristic technique, named self-adaptive bonobo optimizer, which is an improved version of bonobo optimizer. It aims to solve the optimal power flow for alternating current power systems and hybrid systems AC/DC, to find the optimal location of the high voltage direct current line in the network, with a view to minimize the total generation costs and the total active power transmission losses. The self-adaptive bonobo optimizer was tested on the IEEE 30-bus system, and the large-scale Algerian 114-bus electric network. The obtained results were assessed and contrasted with those previously published in the literature in order to demonstrate the effectiveness and potential of the suggested strategy.
