Abstract

This paper introduces a nonconventional rural generation system that extracts energy from high-voltage transmission line surroundings. The system was designed for a 230-kV transmission line and consists of a special 20-km collector line and an innovative substation. The energy is coupled to the collector line and supplied through a resonant circuit. There is no physical contact with the transmission line. A detailed electromagnetic study is described, assuring there is no disturbance at the transmission line and that the rural system delivers high-quality energy. Spark gaps were used to avoid overvoltage along the rural feeder. Transmission line reliability is not compromised.
