Abstract: Power system security is not a new issue in power engineering community. Nevertheless, studies are still carried out to alleviate this problem; related to voltage stability improvement, loss minimization, economic dispatch, stability tracing and voltage profile improvement. This talk will highlight several computational intelligence techniques in power system security initiatives. Several experiences associated with power system security will be shared together such as the assessment and improvement techniques. How power tracing was incorporated together in voltage stability will also be addressed. The marriage among computational intelligence techniques are also discussed; it also highlights the importance of reducing the computational burden experienced by the traditional meta-heuristic techniques.
