In this paper, an interactive satisfying method, a two-level structure, is presented for solving a multi-objective VAR planning problem. In this structure, the analysis level is concerned with the calculation of a possible or a set of possible solutions to the multi-objective problem, and the decision level s concentrated on the task of inducing the analysis level to generate noninferior solutions that meet the decision makers` preferences. On the analysis level, the {epsilon}-constraint method based on the Simulated Annealing (SA) approach is developed to find a global noninferior solution. Through interaction with the decisionmaker (DM), the proposed method guarantees the solution to be a desirable, global noninferior solution for a general multi-objective VAR planning problem. The presented method was applied to the AEP-14 bus system as well as to a large, actual-size system with satisfactory results.
