Abstract:

Generation Expansion Planning (GEP) is one of major modules of power system planning studies, normally performed for the nex 10-30 years horizon. The current industrial practices are to find the generation requirements based on a&#10&#10nodal analysis. In this way, the allocations are not determined and subequent studies are required to find the exact locations &#10 which as decomposed from the earlier stage, may result in non-optimum solution. A new approach is proposed in this paper in which, based on dynamic programming and sensitivity factors, GEP is performed with due to consideration of transmission &#10&#10system effects. In this way, the allocations of justified generation plants are also determined. The results for Iranian Power Grid for the years 2011 to 2021 are demonstracted. &#10

A New Particle-Swarm-Based Algorithm for Distribution System Expansion Planning Including Distributed Generation

Distributed Generation (DG) is a new approach in the electricity industry to meet the electrical demand growth in a suitable manner. This paper presents a solution method for the distribution expansion panning problem including DG. The proposed algorithm is based on binary particle swarm optimization. The aim of the model is to find the optimal planning of the expansion to meet the load growth....

A Fuzzy Multi Objective Programming Model for Power Generation and Transmission Expansion Planning Problem

The increasing consumption of electricity over time forces different countries to establishnew power plants and transmission lines. There are various crisp single-objective mathematicalmodels in the literature for the long-term power generation and transmission expansion planning tohelp the decision makers to make more reasonable decisions. But, in practice, most of the parametersassociated wit...

Return on Investment in Transmission Network Expansion Planning Considering Wind Generation Uncertainties Applying Non-dominated Sorting Genetic Algorithm

Although significant private investment is absorbed in different sectors of power systems, transmission sector is still suffering from appropriate private investment. This is because of the pricing policies of transmission services, tariffs, and especially for investment risks. Investment risks are due to the uncertain behaviour of power systems that discourage investors to invest in the transm...

Regulatory Impacts on Distributed Generation and Upstream Transmission Substation Expansion Planning: A Novel Stochastic Bi-level Model

In this paper, a novel framework is proposed to study impacts of regulatory incentive on distributed generation (DG) investment in sub-transmission substations, as well as upgrading of upstream transmission substations. Both conventional and wind power technologies are considered here. Investment incentives are fuel cost, firm contracts, capacity payment and investment subsidy relating to wind ...
