Abstract

Transmission networks are being used more extensively to accommodate energy transactions that use the economic benefits of pooling. This paper evaluates the probabilistic wheeling capability of an interconnected power transmission system. Large electric power wheeling can degrade the reliability of the electric power network. This problem is also important for power system control and planning purposes. This paper discusses, from the viewpoint of power network reliability, the problem of power wheeling from Western Europe to Greece through the Yugoslav electric power system. The relative cost of the wheeling due to reliability indices is 2% of the production cost for the power wheeled. The calculation of reliability indices of wheeling enable more adequate estimation of the wheeling rate for power transactions between utilities. This paper describes an approach to calculate cost of the average energy not supplied and load curtailed due to wheeling. This cost can even be negative, which depends mostly on the amount of wheeling power and consumer loads. The reliability index EENS (expected energy not supplied) is more comprehensive than PI (performance index) for the contingency severity selection procedure. >
