  ABSTRACT: Power system planning is one of the essential tasks in the power system operation management, which requires in-depth knowledge of the system under consideration. It can be regarded as a nonlinear, discontinuous, constrained multi objective optimization problem. Although the traditional optimization tools can be used, the modern planning problem requires more advanced optimization tools. In this paper, a survey of state-of-the-art mathematical optimization methods that facilitates power system planning is provided, and the needs of introducing swarm intelligence approaches into power system planning are discussed.
