The new CIGRE task force on coordinated voltage control in transmission networks

This short paper describes the preliminary scope and objectives of a new CIGRE task force, under the Advisory Group 02 of the Study Committee 38, on the coordinated voltage control in transmission networks. This report is presented at this panel session to promote a more effective CIGRE-IEEE/PES liaison in this area. CIGRE task forces have a life span of about two and a half years and should produce a Technical Brochure, to be published by CIGRE Central Offices.
