dc.description.abstract | One of the main objectives of deregulation in electric power industry is to introduce competition in the generation sector. The introduction of competition in electric power market has made power flow control more complex and difficult than ever. The scarcity of transmission capacity and a continued demand for power from less expensive sources sometimes lead to transmission system congestion or overloading. Congestion relief through either generation reschedules or transmission system expansion becomes an economic issue on which the deregulated electric industry is showing an increasing interest. The research work described in this thesis examines issues related to transmission system expansion under deregulation, including transmission congestion, determination of optimal generation reschedules and selection of optimal transmission system expansion schemes. When congestion occurs in a deregulated power system, generation has to be rescheduled to ensure system security. This reschedule usually increases the operating cost. Two methods, named DC and AC method respectively, are proposed in this thesis to optimize the generation reschedule. | |
