            Abstract : 
This paper presents a new methodology for online voltage stability assessment, consisting of two steps. Firstly, the time evolution of the power system operating state is modeled with the help of a forecasting-aided state estimator; secondly the voltage collapse point is determined through an extrapolation technique based on tangent vector behavior. Tests are carried out using the IEEE-14 bus system, where different operating scenarios are considered. The results show that monitoring system load trends may improve the assessment of voltage stability
