AbstractIn this study, a hybrid tabu search (TS) and simulated annealing (SA) approach is proposed to minimize the generator fuel cost in optimal power flow (OPF) control with flexible AC transmission systems (FACTS) devices. The problem is decomposed into the optimal setting of FACTS parameters subproblem that is searched by the hybrid TS/SA approach and the OPF with fixed FACTS parameters subproblem that is solved by the quadratic programming (QP). Two types of FACTS devices are used: thyristor-controlled series capacitor (TCSC) and thyristor-controlled phase shifting (TCPS). Test results on the modified IEEE 30 bus system indicate that the proposed hybrid TS/SA approach can obtain better solutions and require less CPU times than hybrid TS/SA/GA, Genetic Algorithm (GA), SA, or TS alone.
