Key Points

To develop and evaluate an advanced parallel tabu search algorithm designed to resolve large-scale combinatorial challenges in network synthesis and transmission expansion planning.
Formulated a third-generation parallel tabu search framework combining features from heuristic search, simulated annealing, and genetic algorithms.
Tested the algorithm across network synthesis test cases requiring the addition of multiple transmission lines and transformers to connect new generation and load sites.
The algorithm effectively navigated complex optimization landscapes featuring extensive structural variations with nearly identical capital investment costs.
Successfully integrated multi-line and transformer additions across all evaluated test network scenarios without being trapped in local optima.
