The importance and necessity conducting studies on grid reliability evaluation have been increasingly important in recent years due to the number of black-out events occurring through in the world. Quantity evaluation of transmission system reliability is very important in a competitive electricity environment. The reason is that the successful operation of electric power under a deregulated electricity market depends on transmission system reliability management. Also in Korea it takes places. This paper presents the probabilistic reliability evaluation for 765KV transmission lines of KEPCO grid expansion planning. The Transmission Reliability Evaluation for large-Scale Systems (TRElSS) Version 6.2, a software package developed by Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) is utilized in determining the improved probabilistic reliability indices of (KEPCO) system.

In recent, the importance and necessity of some studies on reliability evaluation of grid comes from the recent black-out accidents occurred in the world. The quantity evaluation of transmission system reliability is very important under competitive electricity environment. The reason is that the successful operation of electric power under the deregulated electricity market depends on transmission system reliability management. This paper introduces features and operation modes of the Transmission Reliability Evaluation for Large-Scale Systems(TRELSS) Version 6.2, a program made in EPRI, for assessing reliability indices of composite power system. The package accesses not only bulk but also buses indices for reliability evaluation of composite powers system. The characteristics of the TRELSS program are illustrated by the case studies using the KEPCO system

The nodal marginal cost and the congestion charge are used as the econimic signals for the electricity price and new invetments in deregulated power systems. In this paper, the nodal marginal cost and the congestion charge are calculated by using the shadow prices resulted from the calculation of Optimal Power Flow(OPF). Linearization of inequality constraints and piecewise linear cost functions make an OPF problem LP-based forms. In order to use the shadow price, the Interior Point(IP) algorithm is applied as a solution technique to the formulation. This paper proposes an algorithm to determine efficients initial points which are guaranteed to be interior points.

An important aspect of the study of power system markets involves the assessment of strategic behavior of participants for maximizing their profits. In models of imperfect competition of a deregulated electricity system the key task is to find the Nash equilibrium. In this paper, the bimatrix approach for finding Nash equilibria in electricity markets is investigated. This approach determines pure and mixed equilibria using the complementarity pivot algorithm. The mixed equilibrium in the matrix approach has the equal number of non-zero property. This property makes it difficult to reproduce a smooth continuous distribution for the mixed equilibrium. This paper proposes an algorithm for adjusting the quantization value of discretization to reconstruct a continuous distribution from a discrete one.

In a deregulated power market, a load model considered the characteristics of electric consumers is required and the congestion management of transmission lines should be resolved in a point of economic benefits. It is essential that the optimal power flow algorithm is applied to manage transmission line congestion. Therefore, in this paper, we implement the optimal power flow with object function of social welfare maximization based linear programming and analysis the nodal prices for generations and loads through a numerical study.

In deregulated power market, transmission pricing methodology should maintain non-discrimination amongst all participants while ensure that TRANSCOs recover their revenue requirements. The proposed transmission pricing methodology for Korea needs cost allocation ratios, such as allocation ratio of physical transport to network security and that of generators to loads. In this paper, we studied the nodal transmission price determined by the cost allocation factors and its influence on GENCOs and DISTCOs.

This paper presents a method fer evaluation nodal probabilistic congestion and reliability indices of transmission systems using Monte Carlo simulation methods. Quantitative evaluation of transmission system reliability is very important because successful operation of an electric power system. In the deregulated electricity market depends on transmission system reliability management Monte Carlo methods are often preferable, when complex operating conditions are involved and/or the number of sever events is relatively large. To evaluate the reliability of a real power system, Monte Carlo Methods will be more useful. The characteristics and effectiveness of this methodology are illustrated by the case study using a small test system.

Load forecasting has always been essential to the operation and planning of power systems in deregulated electricity markets. Various methods have been proposed for load forecasting, and the neural network is one of the most widely accepted and used techniques. However, to obtain more accurate results, more information is needed as input variables, resulting in huge computational costs in the learning process. In this paper, to reduce training time in multi-layer perceptron-based short-term load forecasting, a graphics processing unit (GPU)-based computing method is introduced. The proposed approach is tested using the Korea electricity market historical demand data set. Results show that GPU-based computing greatly reduces computational costs.

Congestion management is one of the most challenging aspects in the recently deregulated electricity markets. FACTS devices have been shown to be an efficient alternative to control the flow of power in lines, resulting in increased loadability, lower system loss and a reduced cost of production. In this paper, the application of a static series synchronous compensator (SSSC) for the purpose of congestion management of power systems has been studied. A sensitivity-based analysis method is utilized for effective determination of the SSSC location in an electricity market. The method is topology based and it is independent of the system operation point. A power injection p-model is developed for the SSSC in this study. Numerical results based on the modified IEEE 14 bus system with/without the SSSC demonstrate the feasibility as well as the effectiveness of the SSSC for congestion management in a network. The results obtained when using the SSSC to improve system transfer capability and congestion management is encouraging.

This paper evaluate reliability indices of a part of transmission network of KEPCO system. Quantitative evaluation of transmission system reliability is very important because successful operation of an electric power system in the deregulated electricity market depends on transmission system reliability management. Monte Carlo methods are often preferable, when complex operating conditions are involved and/or the number of sever events is relatively large. Monte Carlo simulation methods and CMELDC(CoMposite power system Effective Load Duration Curve) were used in this paper.
