Abstract :
This paper addresses the congestion management problem avoiding offline transmission capacity limits related to stability. These limits on line power flows are replaced by optimal power flow-related constraints that ensure an appropriate level of security, mainly targeting voltage instabilities, which are the most common source of stability problems. Results from an illustrative case study based on the IEEE 24-bus Reliability Test System are analyzed. Conclusions are duly drawn.
