• Congestion management in electricity market is solved with a new technique.
• Generator rescheduling is considered for congestion management.
• The effect of adding pumped storage hydro unit is investigated for congestion management.
• Newly developed firefly algorithm is employed to reduce congestion cost.
Post-deregulation era of power system operation produces more pressure on Independent System Operator (ISO) to ensure congestion free transmission network without destroying system security. In order to relieve transmission congestion, ISO initiates correct methods by maintaining system reliability and security. This paper considers a novel efficient technique for congestion management like generator real power rescheduling by integrating a pumped storage hydro unit (PSHU) in the system. This paper presents an optimization model for congestion management by incorporating the calculation of two factors like generator sensitivity factor (GSF) and bus sensitivity factor (BSF). Optimal location of PSHU is identified using the value of BSF’s and the numbers of participated generators for congestion management by rescheduling their outputs are determined using the value of GSF’s. The impact of PSHU has been investigated to manage transmission congestion which further reduces the congestion cost and improves security of the system. The proposed method for congestion management considering PSHU is tested on modified IEEE-39 bus New England test system and the validity is obtained by considering the same problem without the presence of PSHU. The result of proposed work with proper utilization of PSHU illustrates the impact of PSHU towards the congestion management and also exploration of firefly algorithm for minimizing the transmission congestion cost.
