Abstract
- Transmission expansion planning (TEP) has become a complex problem in restructured electricity markets. This article presents the symbiotic organisms search (SOS) algorithm, a novel metaheuristic optimization technique for solving TEP problems in power systems. The SOS algorithm is inspired by the interactions among organisms in an ecosystem. The TEP problem is formulated here as an optimization problem to determine the cost-effective expansion planning of electrical power systems. Several constraints, such as power flow of the lines, right-of-way validity and maximum line addition, are taken into consideration. First, the SOS algorithm is tested with several benchmark functions. Then, it is applied on three standard power system networks (IEEE 24-bus system, Brazilian 46-bus system and Brazilian 87-bus system) in a TEP study to demonstrate the optimization capability of the proposed SOS algorithm. The results are compared with those produced by other state-of-the-art algorithms. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
