Abstract :
A very simple and fast method for computing power systems maximum loading points is proposed in this paper. These points are simply computed through repeated load flow solutions. The main contribution resides in the appropriate use of a special load flow with step size optimization and the extraction of useful information from it, which guides the search for the desired maximum loading point. The simplicity and robustness of the proposed method are verified through simulations involving test and realistic systems.
