flow control. As the area of influence of a FACTS device is usually limited‚ it is sufficient to include only a reduced area in the optimisation problem. Here‚ such an optimal power flow problem is formulated where the considered area is defined using sensitivity analysis. To include N 2 1 security as an objective‚ a current injection method is applied‚ which facilitates the determination of the system state in the case of a line outage‚ without having to carry out a full-load flow simulation. 1 Introduction
