— In this paper, a Genetic Algorithm (GA) optimization
method for simultaneous optimal placement and parameters
tuning of Thyristor Controlled Series Capacitor (TCSC) is
proposed to damp inter-area oscillations and improve stability in
multi-machine power system. Compared with existing
approaches, the proposed method is more applicable in that, it
only needs Eigen-values of system oscillatory modes instead
system transfer function. The results of test on IEEE 9-bus
system, show optimal performance of the proposed method in
damping inter-area oscillations and improving power system
stability
