Approaches to transmission planning: A transmission expansion game
2012 IEEE Power and Energy Society General Meeting, 2012Defining and making decisions about network investments has become a hard task in a competitive environment. This work defines a methodology to look for expansion alternatives in a transmission system. We propose a Transmission Expansion Game model that consists of four main elements: i) generating transmission expansion plan scenarios, ii) valuation ...

Generation and Transmission Expansion Planning
2016The two previous chapters describe and analyze the transmission expansion planning problem (TEP, Chap. 2) and the generation expansion planning problem (GEP, Chap. 3). These two problems are critical for the optimal expansion planning of electric energy systems. However, these chapters analyze the GEP and TEP problems independently. In this chapter, we

Hybrid AC/DC Transmission Expansion Planning
IEEE Transactions on Power Delivery, 2012This paper proposes a hybrid algorithm for the ac/dc transmission expansion planning (TEP). The stochastic simulation method would consider random outages of generating units and ac/dc transmission lines as well as load forecast errors. The mixed-integer linear programming problem is decomposed into a master planning problem with integer investment ...

Transmission Expansion Planning Using Contingency Criteria
IEEE Transactions on Power Systems, 2007This paper proposes a methodology for choosing the best transmission expansion plan considering various types of security (operating reliability) criteria. The proposed method minimizes the total cost that includes the investment cost of transmission as well as the operating cost and standby cost of generators.

Transmission expansion planning using multivariate interpolation
Electric Power Systems Research, 2015Abstract The total cost of the transmission expansion planning (TEP) problem consists of investment and operation costs. The former is the required capital investment cost for new circuits throughout the network, and the latter is the cost of optimal generation dispatch to meet the demand at each hour.

Reliability Optimization for Transmission Expansion Planning
IEEE Power Engineering Review, 1982A new quantitative method of incorporating system reliability constraints in transmission expansion planning is discussed. The objective of the new algorithm is to achieve a prescribed system reliability index, the system expected demand not served (EDNS) by suitably changing network element capacities.

Multiobjective environmental transmission network expansion planning
2013 IEEE Grenoble Conference, 2013This paper presents a methodology for solving the Transmission Expansion Planning Problem (TEPP) when environmental concerns are included. The traditional problem is solved minimizing the investment cost of adding transmission equipment in order to meet future demand.

Complexity of transmission network expansion planning
Energy Systems, 2013Transmission network expansion planning in its original formulation is NP-hard due to the subproblem Steiner trees, the minimum cost connection of an initially unconnected network with mandatory and optional nodes. By using electrical network theory we show why NP-hardness still holds when this subproblem of network design from scratch is omitted by ...

Transmission network expansion planning software-tools
2015 IEEE 10th Jubilee International Symposium on Applied Computational Intelligence and Informatics, 2015The authors are proposing a software-tool for transmission network expansion planning (TNEP). The developed software-tool is able to be used in case of complex, large scale power systems. It uses a.c. complete power flow mathematical model. Power flow computing is performed using conventional methods.

PSO based transmission network expansion planning
MELECON 2014 - 2014 17th IEEE Mediterranean Electrotechnical Conference, 2014The transmission network expansion planning (TNEP) problem is tackled within this paper. The TNEP study is approached for a real power system designed based on the Western and South-Western parts of the Romanian Power System. The study is performed considering 3 consumed power evolution scenarios and power transfers. The complete a.c.
