Abstract

The Southern African Power Pool (SAPP) is a pool of interconnected electrical utilities in southern Africa. The SAPP hosts a workshop annually between all its constituents to determine the power transfer limits for the interconnected network for the following year. These limits ensure that the power pool remains stable and does not experience a blackout. Consistent processes have led to accurate and consistent results; therefore the aim of this research was to identify the gaps in the SAPP transfer limits studies process compared to international best practice processes. The inconsistencies identified translate to the identified potential process improvements that can be made to the consistency of the SAPP process and therefore the accuracy of the results produced.
