This paper presents a multi-objective optimal operation of meshed AC/DC power grids including multi-terminal voltage-source-converter-based high-voltage direct current (VSC-MTDC) systems. The proposed approach is modeled as a corrective security-constrained optimal power flow (CSC-OPF) problem, with the minimization of both the operation cost and power loss as the objectives. Moreover, it provides a cost-effective solution to assist in decision-making, and improves the system security during operation. The N − 1 contingency security criterion is enforced for both AC and DC transmission networks, and corrective control is used to eliminate or alleviate post-contingency security violations. The corrective control actions used in this paper include not only secure operation control actions, but also economical post-contingency corrective control of the multi-terminal VSC-HVDC. To increase the computation speed, a contingency screening technique is applied to CSC-OPF by efficiently selecting the most severe case of the N − 1 contingency, as obtained using a voltage security index (VSI). The proposed approach uses the non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm (NSGA-II) to find multi-objective OPF solutions by checking the post-contingency state feasibility while taking into account post-contingency corrective actions. Simulation results confirm the validity and effectiveness of this approach.
