Abstract: The integration of various types of renewable energy sources and storage systems into power system increases the complexity of the conventional power system, necessitating a comprehensive optimal power flow (OPF) analysis with multiple and/or competing objectives. From this viewpoint, the paper proposes optimal utilization of different power system entities, by solving the OPF problem using the heuristic particle swarm optimization technique. The proposed methodology optimizes the power flow of a complex, nonlinear hybrid power system to fulfill several objectives, viz., line loss minimization, cost minimization and profit maximization under varying environmental conditions and system attributes. A modified IEEE system replacing conventional sources with renewables and storage system is considered for study. Results corroborate the effectiveness of the strategy.
