Using flexible AC transmission system (FACTS) devices in power systems while adhering to some equality and inequality constraints, researchers around the world sought to address this issue with the objectives of improving the voltage profile, reducing power losses in transmission lines, and increasing system reliability and safety. The recent development of FACTS controllers opens up new perspectives for safer and more efficient operation of electrical power networks by continuous and rapid action on power systems parameters, such as phase angle shifting, voltage injection and line impedance compensation. Thus, an improvement on voltage profile and enhancement of power transfer capability can be obtained. It is for that, the idea behind the FACTS concept is to enable the transmission system to be an active element in increasing the flexibility of power transfer requirements and in securing stability of integrated power system. It may also be effective in transient stability improvement, power oscillations damping and balancing power flow in parallel lines. The primary issue that has significantly piqued the interest of a number of researchers working in this field is the FACTS optimization problem, which involves determining the optimal type, location, and size of FACTS devices in electrical power systems. For solving this mixed integer, nonlinear and non-convex optimization problem, this paper provides an in-depth and comprehensive review of the various optimization techniques covered in published works in the field. In this review, a classification of optimization techniques in five main groups that are widely used, such as classical optimization techniques or conventional optimization approaches, Meta heuristic methods, analytic methods or sensitive index methods and mixed or hybrid methods, is summarized. In addition, a performance descriptions and comparison of these different optimization techniques are discussed in this study. Finally, some advice is offered for future research in this field.

The use of FACTS devices in power systems has become increasingly popular in recent years, as they offer a number of benefits, including improved voltage profile, reduced power losses, and increased system reliability and safety. However, determining the optimal type, location, and size of FACTS devices can be a challenging optimization problem, as it involves mixed integer, nonlinear, and nonconvex constraints. To address this issue, researchers have applied various optimization techniques to determine the optimal configuration of FACTS devices in power systems. The paper provides an in-depth and comprehensive review of the various optimization techniques that have been used in published works in this field. The review classifies the optimization techniques into four main groups: classical optimization techniques, metaheuristic methods, analytic methods, and mixed or hybrid methods. Classical optimization techniques are conventional optimization approaches that are widely used in optimization problems. Metaheuristic methods are stochastic search algorithms that can be effective for nonconvex constraints. Analytic methods involve sensitivity analysis and gradient-based optimization techniques. Mixed or hybrid methods combine different optimization techniques to improve the solution quality. The paper also provides a performance comparison of these different optimization techniques, which can be useful in selecting an appropriate method for a specific problem. Finally, the paper offers some advice for future research in this field, such as developing new optimization techniques that can handle the complexity of the optimization problem and incorporating uncertainties into the optimization model. Overall, the paper provides a valuable resource for researchers and practitioners in the field of power systems optimization, as it summarizes the various optimization techniques that have been used to solve the FACTS optimization problem and provides insights into their performance and applicability.

An additional controller in an electric power system is currently required to increase the system stability, especially when a disturbance occurs. The stability of the multimachine system can be increased by installing a Static Var Compensator (SVC) and Power System Stabilizer (PSS). However, SVC and PSS equipment require precise coordination to determine the optimal location and parameters. This study presents an optimal analysis of SVC coordination with single-band PSS1A and multi-band PSS2B (MB-PSS2B) in the South, Southeast and West Sulawesi (Sulselrabar) electrical systems. An artificial intelligence method based on the Mayfly Optimization Algorithm (MOA) is proposed to optimize the location and parameters of the SVC and PSS. A comparative investigation related to controller parameter optimization from a previous work was used to measure the effectiveness of the MOA based on the Firefly Algorithm (FA) and Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO). Performance analysis using the time-domain simulation method to review the speed deviation response, field voltage response, and rotor angle response for each generator, as well as eigenvalue analysis for each control scheme when there is a change in the load disturbance on generators 1 and 13. The results show an increase in bus voltage from critical to marginal conditions and a decrease in network losses after installing SVC on bus 31 of 40 MW capacity. The application of MB-PSS2B based on the MOA provided an increased damping ratio, optimal speed response, rotor angle, field voltage generator, and eigenvalue system after installing 14 PSS.
