Summary

Based on many incidents that have been experienced, the electric power industry is increasingly concerned with bulk power system voltage instability and collapse. There is now a large literature on voltage stability analysis methods. Production grade simulation software is also now available. There is relatively little information available however on reliability criteria and effective voltage collapse countermeasures.
