Optimal operation and control of hybrid power systems with stochastic renewables and FACTS devices: An intelligent multi-objective optimization approach

This paper delves into the increasingly complex domain of Optimal Power Flow (OPF) within modern power systems, enhanced by the integration of unpredictable renewable energy sources. The research originally integrates stochastic photovoltaic and wind energy sources, along with a suite of Flexible AC...
