Wind generation connection to a power system affects its steady state and transient stability. This effect increases with the increase of wind generation capacity penetration. In this book, determining the optimal location of FACTS devices to solve the problem associated with wind penetration in power systems is carried out by using genetic algorithm optimization technique. The first part of the study in this book is devoted to the selection of suitable FACTS type and ranking method. After the selection is fulfilled, the second part, which deals with maximizing the wind energy penetration of...
