Abstract
Certain embodiments of the invention may include systems and methods for accelerating volt/VAR load flow optimization. According to an example embodiment of the invention, a method is provided for accelerating load flow for integrated volt/var control (IVVC) optimization. The method can include evaluating load flow on lines of an electrical network, identifying combinable network lines, combining the identified combinable network nodes to reduce network complexity, and determining load flow optimization for IVVC based at least in part on the reduced complexity network.
