Abstract

AbstractThis study proposes an optimal approach for enhancing the quality of a weak electrical power distribution system by utilizing thyristor‐controlled series capacitors (TCSC). The proposed approach considers various system components, including shunt capacitors and distributed generators that rely on renewable energy sources, which are characterized by uncertainty due to changing weather conditions. The proposed system maximizes the benefits of these components by updating its parameters to improve the distribution power system's quality under all operating conditions, which change due to the varying energy generated by the distributed generators and load changes. The optimal TCSC values are calculated for all operating conditions using the Hyper‐Spherical Search with graded objective functions management strategy (HSSA‐GOFMS) algorithm. The GOFMS converts all restrictions into objective functions with limits and prioritizes the search for objectives according to a sequential system of priorities. This strategy prevents the possibility of non‐convergence. The results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach in improving the performance quality of a weak electrical distribution system. The proposed strategy achieves the target voltage level limits within nominal values, even with the interference of the system with generators distributed at variable power levels. Furthermore, the proposed approach enhances the performance quality of the system under a wide range of load changes.
