Analysis on Characteristics of Regional Transmission Loss based on the KEPCO's Peak Load Data of Year 2000

2000년 하계 첨두시의 지역별 송전손실 특성분석

The transmission networks are not perfect conductors and a percentage of the power generated is therefore lost before it reaches the loads. This network loss contributes to the cost of suppling power to consumers, and must be considered if the most efficient dispatch and location of generators and loads is to be achieved. In this paper, we propose an approximate calculation of marginal loss factors to analyze characteristics of regional transmission loss. These static marginal loss factors are approximately calculated based on the KEPCO's expected summer peak load data of year 2000.
