Abstract

This paper presents voltage stability study of the Thailand power system by considering the existing Static Var Compensators, generation and load directions. An approach to determine appropriate voltage settings of existing Static Var Compensators is proposed in order to maximize static voltage stability margin of the system. Two most recent methods, namely Maximum Loading Margin and realistic load direction methods, are applied to the Thailand power system in order enhance loading margin of the system in a practical way. With the applications of the proposed and existing techniques, the highest and practical voltage stability margin of Thailand power system is obtained. This provides a guide for electric power utilities to enhance voltage stability margin of power systems in a practical way.
