Applications of fuzzy systems in power systems

Design, operation, and control of todayʹs large-scale power system with interconnections, sophisticated operational strategies, reliability and safety concerns, pose demanding computational issues. The growing complexity and sophistication of power systems have necessitated the development of intelligent tools to aid various planning and control operations. Many recent works have reported application of fuzzy logic to solve or aid the solution of some power system problems. The research in this area is rapidly gaining momentum and the results appear to be very promising. This paper reviews some of the important works reported in the literature. Various issues related to the application of fuzzy logic are discussed.
