Congestion management in power systems – A review

Abstract In the past few decades, restructuring has overtaken all possible domains including the electric supply industry. Restructuring has brought about considerable changes by the virtue of which electricity is now a commodity and has converted into deregulated one. Such a competitive market has paved way for innumerable participants. This has led to overloading and congestion of transmission lines. Moreover, open access transmission network has ingenerated a more intensified problem of congestion. Thus, congestion management in power systems is germane and of central importance to the power industry. In this paper a review work is carried out to unite all the publications in congestion management.
