Abstract

This paper investigates and discusses the usefulness of the application of several valid adequacy evaluation protocols to both the IEEE Reliability Test System (IEEE RTS) and the entire Brazilian Power System (BPS). Three contributions are worth mentioning: 1) an in-depth evaluation of the IEEE RTS using several adequacy protocols, which may be compared with the set of results already available in the literature; 2) original results from an actual very large non-academic power system (BPS), also using a diverse set of adequacy protocols, which help to interpret the behavior of traditional reliability indices when evaluated in real generation and/or transmission systems; and 3) the establishment, evaluation, discussion, and comparison of a set of assumptions described through adequacy protocols used in both systems, which may be adapted to the systems of other countries.
