Economic externalities in transmission network expansion planning
Energy Economics, 2017Abstract This paper discusses investing in transmission capacity and its link with investing in generation capacity. Since opportunity costs in transmission and generation capacity are dependent, externalities arise when investment decisions are decentralized.

Transmission network expansion planning with adaptive particle swarm optimization
2009 World Congress on Nature & Biologically Inspired Computing (NaBIC), 2009Transmission network expansion planning is a very important problem to power system. The problem is very complex due to its mixed integer, non linear, non convex nature. Meta heuristic techniques are known to provide good/ optimal solutions for such type of combinatorial problems.

Artificial intelligence based dynamic transmission network expansion planning
2015 8th International Conference on Human System Interaction (HSI), 2015The paper is focusing on dynamic transmission network expansion planning (TNEP). The TNEP problem has been approached from the retrospective and prospective point of view. To achieve this goal, the authors are developing two software-tools in Matlab environment. Power flow computing is performed using conventional methods.

Harmony search algorithm for transmission network expansion planning
Transmission network expansion planning (TNEP) is a very important problem in power systems. It is a mixed integer, non-linear, non-convex optimisation problem, which is very complex and computationally demanding. Various meta-heuristic optimisation techniques have been tried out for this problem. However, scope for even better algorithms still remains.

A Reactive Grasp for Transmission Network Expansion Planning
2002In this paper we describe an enhanced GRASP (Greedy Randomized Adaptive Search Procedure) applied to power transmission network expansion planning problems. GRASP is a metaheuristic that has been shown to be powerful in solving combinatorial problems.

A Comparative Study of Metaheuristic Methods for Transmission Network Expansion Planning
International Journal of Applied Evolutionary Computation, 2010Transmission network expansion planning is a very complex and computationally demanding problem due to the discrete nature of the optimization variables. This complexity has increased even more in a restructured deregulated environment. In this regard, there is a need for development of more rigorous optimization techniques.

Transmission Network Expansion Planning Considering Uncertainty in Demand
IEEE Transactions on Power Systems, 2006This paper presents two mathematical models and one methodology to solve a transmission network expansion planning problem considering uncertainty in demand. The first model analyzed the uncertainty in the system as a whole; then, this model considers the uncertainty in the total demand of the power system.

Transmission Network Expansion Planning Considering Transmission Switching and Pumped-Storage
2017 IEEE International WIE Conference on Electrical and Computer Engineering (WIECON-ECE), 2017This paper presents, a static transmission network expansion planning (STNEP) with considering the pumped-storage (PS) unit, and the transmission switching (TS) concept. The aim of this work, is to minimize the total cost (TC) of the system. The TC is the summation of the transmission line cost (CTL) and the generation cost (GC) of thermal generating ...

Efficient method for AC transmission network expansion planning
Electric Power Systems Research, 2010A combinatorial mathematical model in tandem with a metaheuristic technique for solving transmission network expansion planning (TNEP) using an AC model associated with reactive power planning (RPP) is presented in this paper. AC-TNEP is handled through a prior DC model while additional lines as well as VAr-plants are used as reinforcements to cope ...
