Abstract

Optimal power flows play a key role in power system operation planning. While most papers in the literature focus on attaining optima, sequencing paths of optimal control adjustments that lead the system from an initial operating point towards the optimum remain scarcely accounted for. Thus, this work proposes a practical framework based upon power system steady-state analysis for sequencing strictly feasible paths of optimal control adjustments determined by the Optimal Reactive Dispatch (ORD) via Lagrange multiplier sensitivity analysis. The proposed framework is methodologically founded on the reformulation of the ORD in terms of optimal control adjustments rather than optimal control values, successive Newton’s power flow calculations to assure a strictly feasible path from the initial operating point towards the optimum, and successive resolutions of the reformulated ORD’s associated dual problem to determine Lagrange multipliers along such sequence path. Thus, pondering optimal control adjustments by their respective Lagrange multipliers indicates which control action must be realised. Numerical results for IEEE test-systems with up to 300 buses with an increased number of controllable variables are obtained to validate and illustrate the efficiency and robustness of the proposed framework.
