Cheju-Haenam HVDC transmission system start it's commercial operation since 1998. JEJU island is supplied with it's about 45% of total electric power from main land with HVDC link. In JEJU island, the demand of electric power is growing every year. With a current power supply, electric power reserve rate will be below the recommended one. For a stable power supply to JEJU island, KEPCO start a construction of #2 HVDC transmission system. This report is for introduction and understanding of #2 HVDC system which will be installed between JEJU island and main land. This report includes a specification of converter station and DC cable. KEPCO expect that this system will solve the power supply problem and maximum wind power plant capacity problem as well.

This paper discusses the surveying of a power transmission line using Real Time Kinematic(RTK) GPS technology. The use of RTK provides users with an accurate position at the moment in time. Application result of a 765kV transmission line surveying proved to be more accurate and efficient than using a traditional EDM (Electro-magnetic distance measurement) method. More, decrease in numbers of trees cut down which is a major cause of public discontents was achieved. Improvements in doing a surveying of a power transmission line using GPS is expected in the future.

KEPCO has completed the installation and demonstration of a 52 MW battery energy storage system (BESS) for frequency regulation. Especially, 24 MW BESS is for Automatic Generation Control (AGC) in Shin-Yongin substation. Recently, KEPCO Research Institute has operated it connected to EMS of KPX. This paper discussed the operation strategy of EMS through a study on using 24 MW BESS in AGC operation and propose the improvement of AGC target. It is expected that this paper helps a safe and reliable operation and control of ESS for AGC through its continuous update.

The high-temperature steam pipes of thermal power plants are subjected to severe conditions such as creep and fatigue due to the power plant frequently being started up and shut down. To prevent critical pipes from serious damage and possible failure, inspection methods such as computational analysis and online piping displacement monitoring have been developed. However, these methods are limited in that they cannot determine the life consumption rate of a critical pipe precisely. Therefore, we set out to develop a life assessment system, based on a three-dimensional piping displacement monitoring system, which is capable of evaluating the life consumption rate of a critical pipe. This system was installed at the "M" thermal power plant in Malaysia, and was shown to operate well in practice. The results of this study are expected to contribute to the increase safety of piping systems by minimizing stress and extending the actual life of critical piping.

The purpose of the facility investment planning for bulk power system is to appropriately configure the power system network to supply the load, which has the supply capability satisfying the probabilistically changing load on the desired reliability level. In order to achieve this purpose, this paper represents the reliability evaluation of the KEPCO's real system with using the MEXICO model, and builds the data base of the power system operation in order to effectively handle the computer model.

This paper discusses a knowledge-based system being developed by KAIST and KEPCO to assist planning the annual maintenance schedule of power units. To meet users' requirements, we have designed the system with several features: man-machine interaction, catalog system, user-friendliness, the hybrid-system of math-model and knowledge-base. In this paper, we introduce the outline of our system.

Low frequency oscillations have been observed in KEPCO system. This paper represents how to analyze the power system by using the AESOPS program and analyze the various factors affecting the damping characteristics of these oscillations in KEPCO system of 1986. The characteristics of load, the amount of power flow on the transmission line and the gain of exciter have a significant effects on the damping of the system while the governing system has only a minor one. With the Power System Stabilizers, the stability of the power system has been increased.
