Book

Electric power networks increasingly interconnect stochastic renewable sources, conventional generation, flexible loads, converter-interfaced DC links and electronically regulated distribution interfaces. Their coordinated operation requires more than a single economic dispatch objective: thermal emissions, losses, voltage profiles, voltage-collapse proximity, converter limits, transient behavior and operational security must be considered together. This volume follows the supplied research draft through eleven chapters grouped into four parts. Part I develops the literature context, AC/DC resource models, SST device equations and constrained multi-objective formulation. Part II presents the hybrid MOABC–NSGA-II methodology, mixed-variable search, SCDP feasibility management, DAA archiving, and AHP– TOPSIS compromise selection. Part III collects the IEEE 30- and IEEE 57-bus inputs, original renewable scenarios, published method comparisons and voltage-security evaluation. Part IV develops SST planning and adaptive control (S6) and joint SST–FACTS–VSC–MTDC stochastic co-optimization (S7); the final chapter identifies validation requirements and future work.
