Estimation of small and large-scale industrial power plants operation and their impact on supply reliability assessment

Abstract

When estimating industrial power plant operation and its impact on power supply reliability, an assessment is necessary. In view of this, the equivalent assisting unit approach is presented and described. The equivalent assisting unit approach allows the presentation of a tie line as an equivalent assisting power plant with a capacity equal to the tie line capacity and an availability equal to the tie line supply availability. The theoretical approaches and models presented allow qualitative and quantitative estimation of the operation of industrial power plants and their impact on supply reliability assessment.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">&gt;</ETX>
