Abstract

Electric power from several sources in an electrical power system is to be accurately planned for economical and reliable operation. Power loss minimization, generation, and fuel cost minimization, voltage stability and carbon emission reduction are the prominent advantages of OFP. Thus, recently, the optimal solution of OPF become a valuable part of power system planning and optimization. This paper presents a mini-review on methods applied for the OPF solution. The applied methods include conventional and metaheuristic methodologies for solving the OPF problem. Moreover, the most recently applied metaheuristic methods for solving the OPF problem are covered and presented, including considered OFP type, validation test system, and numerous optimization objectives
