Abstract: The disclosure relates generally to methods and systems for real-time voltage stabilization of electrical distribution networks with non-linear power flows. Existing real-time voltage control techniques are neither performance nor stability guarantees. The present disclosure proposes an online robust control algorithm, which operates without knowing an exact information of the line-parameters and resolves the voltage stability problem. In the proposed method a load data, a distributed energy resources (DER) data, and a network data of an electrical distribution network is obtained, to obtain a voltage profile at each time-step of the electrical distribution network. Next, line-parameters of the electrical distribution network are predicted using an on-line convex optimization technique and a Gauss-Seidel technique.
