Optimal location of multi-type FACTS devices in a power system by means of genetic algorithms.

This paper presents a genetic algorithm to seek the optimal location of multi-type FACTS devices in a power system. The optimizations are performed on three parameters: the location of the devices, their types and their values. The system loadability is applied as a measure of power system performan...
