| Summary: | Abstract This paper aims to improve transient stability using the Ant Colony Optimization for Continuous Domains (ACOR). This improvement is obtained by solving the Transient Stability Constrained Optimal Power Flow (TSCOPF) problem and extracting the sensitivity coefficients. The presented costs minimization approach requires less execution time to manage energy resources efficiently and compared to other conventional methods, it also outperforms based on statistical indicators such as mean and standard deviation. Furthermore, the sensitivity analysis of the suggested method considers the active power generation of the generating units along with their terminal voltage, which notably decreases the operation cost and reduces risk to the power system. On the other hand, the application of ACOR algorithm can reduce the fuel cost of power system operation to 60,928.36 $/h with a decrease of 15.33 $/h compared to the conventional method with a standard deviation equal to 2.51 $/h and an execution time of 7.66 s. This strategy could be used in power system dispatching. This method is implemented on the New England 39 bus system, and the results demonstrate the method's efficiency compared to other conventional methods. |
