In a response to economic growth, electric power utilities installed many electric power facilities to meet power demand. However, these facilities have aged and should be replaced in the near future. Moreover, the demand is said to constantly increase. Therefore, it is necessary to partially upgrade facilities. In this paper, we upgrade transformers with one of the financial engineering techniques...
Microgrid (p, g) is the present buzzword in the power industry with the new approach that it provides the grid operators to operate the grid. The unexpected weather events, increased electricity needs and potential threat to the cyber-security of the grid have raised several questions over the reliability of the grid with μ,gs turning out to be the pragmatic solution to improve reliability. In this...
Traditionally, reliability evaluations for substation configurations and distribution networks are performed separately and substation reliability evaluation only focuses on a single substation. This paper presents a technique to assess the reliability of multiple substations with associated distribution networks. Based on Markov modeling, a clustering approach, a linear programming algorithm and...
A reliability study of the six western transmission lines maintained by EDELCA, the major power generation and transmission utility in Venezuela was completed. The main purpose of this paper was to estimate a set of reliability indices for each power transmission line, using probabilistic techniques such as the Markov approach and the state enumeration method for the load points system assessment...
A complete reliability study of three large transmission substations of EDELCA, the major power generation and transmission utility in Venezuela was made.
