Acquiring the basic knowledge from the power system planning (PSP), regarding the methodology and algorithms for the optimization of production-transmission capacities and micro grids. The aim is to learn the students for solving the practical problems in transmission network upgrading (revitalization of available lines and construction of new ones) and planning of additional production capacities, especially renewables – mini and micro hydro power plants, wind farms, photovoltaic power plants and others. Due to mathematical complexity of the power system planning problems, the aim is to learn the students for using the software packages for PSP and planning of micro grids (for example, Retscreen).
At the end of the course, students will be able to: - Modelling the certain physical effects which happen under some planning conditions. - Formulate and solve basic PSP problems: load planning (forecast), development planning of production capacities and extension planning of the transmission network. - Use the software packages for planning of the production-transmission and micro parts of the power system, with special attention to high penetration of distributed energy sources. - Reach the necessary conclusions on the basis of the obtained results for the purpose of PSP optimization.
- Investment and operation costs. Fixed and variable costs of production capacities and transmission and micro grids. Fuel cost. - Energy and power forecasts. Qualitative and extrapolation methods. Peak power forecast. Demand duration curves forecast. - PSP and engineering economics. Costs leveraging. Cash flow. Depreciation and loss in value. Equivalent worth methods (present, future and yearly). Method of shortest payback period. Rate of return methods. Cost-to-benefit methods. - Influence of renewable energy sources to PSP. - Planning of production capacities. Reliability indices. Choosing the size of the production unit. Time schedule for unit connection and disconnection. Typical power system configurations: thermal power systems, mixed hydro-thermal power systems (influence of accumulation and no accumulation hydro power plants). - Planning of transmission network. Investment and operation costs of overhead and underground lines. Optimization of transmission between two points. Optimization of line crossing – Kelwin rules. Transmission lines loading. Transmission network upgrading. DC power flow model in PSP. Method of successive reduction of the transmission network. - Optimal siting and sizing of distributed generations. - Storage systems planning.
