==Other power-flow methods==
* [[Gauss–Seidel method]]: This is the earliest devised method. It shows slower rates of convergence compared to other iterative methods, but it uses very little memory and does not need to solve a matrix system.
* [[Fast-decoupled-load-flow method]] is a variation on Newton–Raphson that exploits the approximate decoupling of active and reactive flows in well-behaved power networks, and additionally fixes the value of the [[Jacobian matrix and determinant|Jacobian]] during the iteration in order to avoid costly matrix decompositions. Also referred to as "fixed-slope, decoupled NR". Within the algorithm, the Jacobian matrix gets inverted only once, and there are three assumptions. Firstly, the conductance between the buses is zero. Secondly, the magnitude of the bus voltage is one per unit. Thirdly, the sine of phases between buses is zero. Fast decoupled load flow can return the answer within seconds whereas the Newton Raphson method takes much longer. This is useful for real-time management of power grids.<ref>{{Cite journal|last1=Stott|first1=B.|last2=Alsac|first2=O.|date=May 1974|title=Fast Decoupled Load Flow|journal=IEEE Transactions on Power Apparatus and Systems|language=en-US|volume=PAS-93|issue=3|pages=859–869|doi=10.1109/tpas.1974.293985|bibcode=1974ITPAS..93..859S |issn=0018-9510}}</ref>
* [[Holomorphic embedding load flow method]]: A recently developed method based on advanced techniques of complex analysis. It is direct and guarantees the calculation of the correct (operative) branch, out of the multiple solutions present in the power-flow equations.
* [[Backward-Forward Sweep (BFS) method]]: A method developed to take advantage of the radial structure of most modern distribution grids. It involves choosing an initial voltage profile and separating the original system of equations of grid components into two separate systems and solving one, using the last results of the other, until convergence is achieved. Solving for the currents with the voltages given is called the backward sweep (BS) and solving for the voltages with the currents given is called the forward sweep (FS).<ref>Petridis, S.; Blanas, O.; Rakopoulos, D.; Stergiopoulos, F.; Nikolopoulos, N.; Voutetakis, S.
