  • Abstract
    A new methodology for planning future reactive compensation for large scale systems is presented. The planning technique is based on a restructuring of the network model and a special formulation of the revised simplex method. A preprocessor is incorporated for correcting systems which are not able to converge using conventional power flow or optimal power flow programs. A 600 bus example is provided which considers 285 transmission contingencies.
