Optimal scheduling of LTC and shunt capacitors in large distorted distribution systems using evolutionary-based algorithms

The optimal scheduling of load tap changers (LTCs) and switched shunt capacitors for simultaneously minimizing energy loss and improving voltage profile while taking harmonics into account is performed using evolutionary-based algorithms (EAs). The proposed algorithm is capable of optimizing large d...
