Abstract: Due to the increase in voltage instability problem and power losses in Nigeria grid are a serious operational challenger facing electricity supply utilities. The Nigeria 330Kv power grid was used as a case study for the evaluation of the proposed power loss reduction system a simulink model of the Nigeria 330Kv transmission system with the proposed neural network controlled TCSC integrated was created in the MATLAB/SIMULINK programming environment. Genetic algorithm was used for optimal placement of the FACTS device in the MATLAB/SIMULINK model of the Nigeria 330Kv transmission system .The proposed approach has been implemented on IEEE 67 bus system, 39 load points, 111 transmission lines and 14 generators. The simulation and evaluation were carried out with TCSC installed with each variation of the load at the bus; load flow is run to determine total system losses. Findings showed that the proposed neural network controlled TCSC to Achieved an average active power loss reduction of 13.11378 (p.u) and average reactive power loss reduction of 78.16378 (p.u). This shows that TCSC reduced both active and reactive power loss in the system.
