With the advancements in technology, electricity is becoming a commodity for daily need of a human being. As the power need is increasing so does increase of the load on Transmission Lines. With increased burden on Transmission lines these Transmission lines may suffer from Congestion problem. Congestion could be very severe for the power system operations, as it can cause system failure or it can damage whole system. Congestion can be led by if the system is unable to transfer the power as the required demand. Congestion can be managed by using Congestion Management methodologies, such as Generator Rescheduling, Optimal Placement of Distributed Generator (DG), by placing FACTS devices, Cost-free Methods, Nodal Pricing, Load Shedding, Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO), Genetic Algorithm (GA), Local Marginal Pricing (LMP), Transformer Taps, Integrating Non-Renewable Energy Sources and the other Non-Linear Programming Algorithms to relieve Congestion. In this paper various published paper work is used to describe the congestion and its significance and to deal the management of Congestion.
