Abstract
Optimal power flow programs have deficiencies that limit their practical value and scope of application. Three of these deficiencies are: (1) the use of equivalents causes errors, (2) the methods for adjusting discrete variables are suboptimal; and (3) the number of control actions is too large to be executed. These deficiencies are explained, and approaches for correcting them are discussed. >
