dc.descriptionThe main task of distribution system is to provide acceptable reliability, economic and quality service of electricity according to the demanded load value. To fulfill this task more accurately, the reliability assessment of the distribution system can be performed and measured using a wide variety of reliability indices. This study evaluates the reliability indices of industrial distribution network, Balaju Industrial District, and deals with the reliability of four different network configurations (Case 0-1-2-3) to increase reliability and achieve more realistic results.
dc.description.abstractThe main task of distribution system is to provide acceptable reliability, economic and quality service of electricity according to the demanded load value. To fulfill this task more accurately, the reliability assessment of the distribution system can be performed and measured using a wide variety of reliability indices. This study evaluates the reliability indices of industrial distribution network, Balaju Industrial District, and deals with the reliability of four different network configurations (Case 0-1-2-3) to increase reliability and achieve more realistic results. Using ETAP, distribution networks are designed, comparisons are made. Reliability changes achieved by network configuration have demonstrated the importance of optimal configuration planning to improve the uninterrupted and sustainable energy quality of the system. In addition, cost of electricity outage, i.e. unserved energy cost, is estimated in this paper based on industrial consumer survey for the financial analysis from the reliability point of view. Outage cost is estimated by production loss method, backup generation method and willingness to pay method. The overall and the best feasible value of cost of unserved energy of BID power distribution system is calculated by taking the weighted average of estimated values from production loss method and backup generation method, and it is found to be Rs. 28.26 per kWh.
