Abstract :
In this paper, the maximum loading margin (MLM) approach is proposed in finding generation directions to maximize the static voltage stability margin, where the MLM is evaluated at various possible generation directions in the generation direction space. An approximate and simple model representing the relationship between the generation direction and the LM is used to obtain the MLM point. The proposed method is validated in the modified IEEE 14-bus test system and applied to the Thailand power system. LMs of the system with the generation directions are compared for different generator combinations using the proposed technique.
