A multi-agent cooperative voltage control method

This paper presented a method for the coordinated control of voltage and reactive power employing multiple agents. In this system, agents installed in sub-stations exchange information with each other through the network and attempt to reduce the overall number of actions needed to control network conditions. In order to verify the performance of the proposed method, it has been applied to the model network system. The simulation results showed that the system provided equal control performance with fewer control steps than conventional systems.
