Abstract: This paper proposes an approach for optimum reactive power dispatch throughout the power network, using Genetic Algorithms (GA). Varying the crossover probability rate Pc and mutation probability rate Pm, the GA control parameters provide faster convergence than constant probability rates. The active power loss is minimized using six controlled system variables (generator voltages, transformer taps and shunt capacitors). The proposed method is evaluated on the practical Ward-Hale 6-bus system and the IEEE 14-bus power system. The Optimal Power Flow (OPF) is solved by a classical nonlinear optimization technique as well as the proposed linear adaptive genetic technique. Numerical results are presented and compared with published results.
