Abstract
With the implementation of restructuring and deregulation in the electricity industry, efficient and economic operations of power systems have become remarkably significant. Meanwhile, congestion in transmission lines is one of the major problems in power system operation. Therefore, in this paper, the multi-objective particle swarm optimization (MOPSO) method has been used for transmission congestion management considering demand response programs (DRPs) and generation rescheduling. Total operation/DR cost, emission and increasing the loading of transmission lines are the objective functions of this problem. Using DRPs increases the operator power of choice with regard to the participation of small consumers in reducing the demand. The method already mentioned has been tested on two test systems (IEEE 30-bus and IEEE 118-bus test systems). The results of the evaluation in the form of different scenarios show that DRPs reduce the power system transmission lines congestion, allowing the use of the transmission lines with less loading capacity. Also, in some instances, without using DRPs, solving the transmission congestion management problem is impossible.
