  Solution of Optimal Reactive Power Dispatch Problem Using a Novel Meta-heuristic Technique

  By Zenifar Parekh, Bhavik Suthar

  Abstract: This paper presents the use of a recently developed algorithm inspired by the hunting mechanism of grey wolfs in nature, called grey wolf optimizer (GWO) algorithm for solving optimal reactive power dispatch (ORPD) problem. The ORPD is formulated as a complex optimization problem with nonlinear characteristic. The GWO is used to find the set of optimal control variables of ORPD problem, such as generators’ terminal voltage, position of tap changers …
