Stability is an important constraint in power system operation. Often trial and error heuristics are used that can be costly and imprecise. A new methodology that eliminates the need for repeated simulation to determine a transiently secure operating point is presented. The methodology involves a stability constrained Optimal Power Flow (OPF). The theoretical development is straightforward: swing equations are converted to numerically equivalent algebraic equations and then integrated into a standard OPF formulation. In this way standard nonlinear programming techniques can be applied to the problem.
