Transmission Network Expansion Planning with Simulation Optimization

Proceedings of the AAAI Conference on Artificial Intelligence, 2010
Within the electric power literature the transmission expansion planning problem (TNEP) refers to the problem of how to upgrade an electric power network to meet future demands. As this problem is a complex, non-linear, and non-convex optimization problem, researchers have traditionally focused on approximate models of power flows ...

Transmission network expansion planning software-tools

2015 IEEE 10th Jubilee International Symposium on Applied Computational Intelligence and Informatics, 2015
The 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.

Complexity of transmission network expansion planning

Energy Systems, 2013
Transmission 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 ...

AC transmission network expansion planning considering losses

2018 IEEE PES Innovative Smart Grid Technologies Conference Europe (ISGT-Europe), 2018
This paper proposes to solve the transmission network expansion planning problem (TNEP) using the AC model formulated with full non-linear load flow equations, incorporating the cost of losses in the transmission network. Additionally, the decomposed formulation finds the location and amount of the reactive compensation needed in the system.

Constraint Handling in Transmission Network Expansion Planning

2010
Transmission network expansion planning (TNEP) is a very important and complex problem in power system. Recently, the use of metaheuristic techniques to solve TNEP is gaining more importance due to their effectiveness in handling the inequality constraints and discrete values over the conventional gradient based methods.

Optimal static and dynamic transmission network expansion planning

Evolving Systems, 2019
In this paper, a novel approach is proposed to solve the problem of static and dynamic Transmission expansion planning (TEP) in electrical power systems. The proposed method is the execution of an Adaptive salp swarm optimization algorithm (ASSO). The ASSO is a meta-heuristic algorithm, which depends on the swarming behavior and population of salps. In

Transmission network expansion planning with security constraints

IEE Proceedings - Generation, Transmission and Distribution, 2005
A mathematical model and a methodology to solve the transmission network expansion planning problem with security constraints are presented. The methodology allows one to find an optimal and reliable transmission network expansion plan using a DC model to represent the electrical network. The security (n-1) criterion is used.

Multiobjective environmental transmission network expansion planning

2013 IEEE Grenoble Conference, 2013
This 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.

A statistical approach to transmission network expansion planning

8th International Conference on Advances in Power System Control, Operation and Management (APSCOM 2009), 2009
The complexity of the modern power system and the deregulation of the electric power industry have introduced more challenges to transmission network planners. In a large-scale power system, it is almost impossible to manually identify candidate expansion routes from thousands of possible transmission routes.

PSO based transmission network expansion planning

MELECON 2014 - 2014 17th IEEE Mediterranean Electrotechnical Conference, 2014
The 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.
