In this paper, a model for hybrid transmission expansion planning (TEP) and reactive power planning (RPP) considering demand response (DR) model has been presented. In this study RPP considered by TEP for its effects on lines capacity and reduction of system expansion costs. On the other hand the expansion of the transmission system is an important subject, especially dealing with the new issues of smart networks like as demand response. Demand response program can change the network expansion planning by shifting elasticity loads and reducing of peak load to improve conditions and decrease the costs. To combine demand response model into the transmission expansion planning and reactive power planning, nonlinear mixed integer meta-heuristic optimization algorithm is used. To evaluate the impact of the proposed expansion planning, this model is exerted to the 30-bus test system. Simulation outcomes display the proposed technique considering demand response model reduces the overall cost of the hybrid TEP-RPP.

In this paper, an optimal design of the renewable combustion plant has been investigated with the aim of ensuring the required load on the Gorgor station. The purpose of this study is to minimize the cost of the proposed hybrid unit during the period of operation of the designed system simultaneously. Information on the intensity of solar radiation and the intensity of wind blowing in the area are taken and applied in the simulation of the system. The intended target function includes the cost of investment, replacement cost and maintenance cost. After the design phase, the main objective is to check the economic benefits of the project's utilization from the grid and compare it with the renewable electricity system, as well as to calculate the initial investment return in renewable electricity. First, the initial cost of consuming electricity from this project is calculated using a renewable electricity system, and then the cost of project is determined using the national grid. Further, by calculating the annual current cost of each of these combinations, the investment return in each mode is obtained. Various options for the use of renewable energies are surveyed separately and in combination. The technical-economic analysis is done on each of these options and ultimately the best one is presented.

This paper presents a model for line extension scheduled to participate in responsive loads in the power system aiming the improvement of techno-economical parameters. The model is studied with the presence of photovoltaic generators that produce variable power depending on the geographical condition. The investment cost of the transmission expansion plan, demand response operation cost, generation costs and the sum of the voltage deviations are the four indices that the optimization problem is designed based on these four criteria. Objective functions are dynamic variables that change daily due to variation in generation and load. A multi-objective optimization method based on the analytic hierarchy technique is employed to solve the problem. The Pareto-optimal set is extracted with gravitational search style and the best solution is fund by AHT manner. Studies are carried out on the modified 30-bus and 24-bus IEEE test system to confirm the capability of the presented model. Two frameworks are defined to compare the suggested manner. A different amount of PV penetration is discussed in several scenarios. Also, load uncertainty is formulated and involved based on probability distribution function.
