Dear all, Does anyone know if it is possible to convert a load to a dispatchable load if the load at a bus has negative reactive demand (and positive real demand)? You can model it as a generator in MatPower with a negative Pmin, Pmax and a positive Qmin, Qmax. What kind of load is this??? Shri For example, buss 9 in the 39 bus example, case39.m has a reactive demand of -66.6. Setting Qmin to -66.6 would not model this correctly but If I set Qmin to 66.6 and Qmax to 0 the OPF does not solve. If I set Qmin to 0 and Qmax to 66.6 I don't think matpower recognizes this as a dispatchable load.
