Methodology of 22.9 ㎸ HTS Gable application for practical distribution system in metropolitan area

22.9 ㎸ 초전도 케이블의 대도심 배전계통 적용방안

As the power demand has increased, it is expected that the transmission system will have more complicated problems under the influence of investment reduction for overall power system. The route length per MW demand will be reduced gradually from 0.6［C-km/㎿］ to 0.53 ［C-km/㎿］ in 2010. This comes up to a real serious problem of system planning and operation viewpoints HTS power technologies have properties to solve these complex transmission and distribution constraints, especially for metropolitan area, in the future. As the HTS technology has developed, the HTS cable technology can be the most effective alternative to solve the future expected transmission constraints as compared with other countermeasures in terms of economics, environments and system operation. This paper describes the general application methodology of developing 22.9 ㎸ HTS cable by CAST for practical distribution system, particularly, step-by-step application methodology of 22.9 ㎸ HTS cable to substitute the existing and planning 154 ㎸ cable. In this scheme, almost of the downtown 154 ㎸ substation of metropolitan city such as Seoul will be changed into 22,9 ㎸ switching station.
