Identification of photovoltaic (PV) module characteristics in solar systems is a vital task, nowadays, for optimal PV power estimation. In this paper, this challenge task has been studied using a novel advanced Kepler optimization algorithm (KOA). The standard version of KOA is adopted and assessed for getting the nine parameters of the PV triple diode model (3DM) considering three different practical PV modules.

Article Synopsis
  • The article presents the Enhanced Gorilla Troops Algorithm (EGTA) as a new method for optimizing the placement of Thyristor Controlled Series Capacitors (TCSC) in power grids, inspired by the behavior of gorilla groups.
  • EGTA includes features that enable better exploration and exploitation through techniques like the Tangent Flight Operator and Fitness-based Crossover Strategy, and its effectiveness is tested against other optimization methods using benchmark problems.
  • Results from simulations on IEEE power grids demonstrate that EGTA significantly reduces power losses compared to the original Gorilla Troops Algorithm, achieving notable improvements in TCSC allocation across different system configurations.
