TLDR
In this article, a distributed series impedance (DSI) and a distributed static series compensator (DSSC) are shown that can be clipped on to an existing power line and can, dynamically and statically, change the impedance of the line so as to control power flow.Abstract:
Flexible AC transmission systems (FACTS) devices are used to control power flow in the transmission grid to relieve congestion and limit loop flows. High cost and reliability concerns have limited the widespread deployment of FACTS solutions. This paper introduces the concept of distributed FACTS (D-FACTS) as an alternative approach to realizing cost-effective power flow control. By way of example, a distributed series impedance (DSI) and a distributed static series compensator (DSSC) are shown that can be clipped on to an existing power line and can, dynamically and statically, change the impedance of the line so as to control power flow. Details of implementation and system impact are presented in the paper, along with experimental results.read more

Moving-Target Defense Against Cyber-Physical Attacks in Power Grids via Game Theory
TL;DR: In this paper, a moving target defense (MTD) strategy is proposed to detect coordinated cyber-physical attacks (CCPAs) against power grids by invalidating the knowledge that the attackers use to mask the effects of their physical attack by actively perturbing the grid's transmission line reactances via distributed flexible AC transmission system (D-FACTS) devices.

Variable-resistance conductors (VRC) for power-line de-icing
TL;DR: In this article, a variable-resistance conductor (VRC) is proposed for deicing power transmission and distribution lines, which can switch their electrical resistance from a very low value, to transmit electric energy, to a much higher value for de-icing.
