This paper presents a novel master–slave stochastic optimization framework for the optimal siting and sizing of fixed-step capacitor banks in medium-voltage distribution networks, explicitly addressing the inherent variability of load demand that is typically neglected in conventional deterministic approaches. The prop...

Phase imbalance in three-phase distribution networks is a persistent operational issue that increases power losses, degrades voltage quality, raises neutral currents, and accelerates equipment aging. Traditional manual balancing methods are labor-intensive, reactive, and ill-suited to handle the stochastic nature of mo...

This paper proposes a stochastic dispatch framework for multi-terminal high-voltage direct current (MT-HVDC) systems that explicitly accounts for uncertainty in photovoltaic (PV) generation and electrical demand while preserving computational tractability. The economic–environmental dispatch problem is formulated as a...
