Abstract :
A multilevel aggregation/disaggregation approach to solving large-scale power flow problems is introduced. This approach makes use of REI-type network equivalents in building the system models for each level. The modeling procedure is explained, and the utilization of parallel processors to further improve the performance of the approach is described. Several examples to illustrate the effectiveness of the method in solving large size power flow problems are given
