Probabilistic Transmission System Planning. IEEE Press Series on Power
Engineering
Description:
A solid reference exploring one of the most important areas in the electric power industry
Transmission planning is one of the most essential activities in the electric power industry, with billions of
dollars invested in transmission systems by electric utility companies and governments every year. In the
United States alone, the Obama Administration's energy plan is spending about four billion dollars in smart
grids and transmission infrastructures.
Systematically discussing probabilistic transmission planning and its applications that make systems
smarter, Probabilistic Transmission System Planning addresses the concepts, models, methods, data, and
various actual issues in probabilistic transmission planning. The probabilistic concept is a main thread
throughout the book and touches each chapter. The applied examples are all based on real projects that
have been implemented in the utility industry.
All basic aspects in transmission planning are covered, including:
Load forecast and load modeling
Conventional and special system analysis techniques
Reliability evaluation
Economic assessment
Data preparation
Fuzzy techniques for data uncertainty
Network reinforcement planning
Retirement planning of network components
Substation planning
Single–circuit supply system planning
Major blackout events in power systems in recent years indicate that deterministic methods are not good
enough. With probabilistic methods providing planning solutions closer to reality, Probabilistic Transmission
System Planning presents practicing engineers, researchers, professors, and graduates in the power system
field with the latest ideas and methods for enhancing transmission systems.
