Abstract
To improve the voltage profile and to reduce system losses, many switched shunt capacitors are used in a power system. It is necessary to coordinate them for operating the system effectively. In this study, a genetic algorithm (GA) is used to find optimal coordination of switched shunt capacitors within a local area of a power system. To verify the effectiveness of the proposed method, a simulation is performed of KEPCO (Korea Electric Power Corporation) power system.
