Abstract
Electrical power systems extensively sustain successive reformations and advances, as well as mounting load demand and integration of renewable energy sources. Eventually, the system should adapt rapidly and be reliable for extended generations and varied load demands. The necessity of more significant, effective operation of an electrical network has led to innovational advancements in power generation and transmission technology. A power electronics-based controller, a Flexible Alternating Current Transmission System (FACTS), plays a significant role in boosting power quality, enhancing voltage stability, minimizing losses, enhancing system stability, and enabling efficient integration of renewable energy. Researchers have devised recent advancements in modern metaheuristic methods that further improve the deployment of FACTS, empowering their best size and location within the power grid. This review article provides a detailed explanation of the mathematical modeling of different FACTS controllers with their control parameters and the technical role of FACTS in modern power systems.
