Abstract
This thesis presents a model approach for minimizing the transmission and distribution
line power loss along with the analysis of reliability of the lines in electric power
systems. Distribution power loss is a measure of the energy lost during the distribution
of electricity from the sending end point to the receiving end users. This loss can be
noteworthy and has a straight impact on the proficiency and economics of the power
system. The proposed approach utilizes a combination of control algorithms and
optimization techniques to effectively minimize the distribution power loss.
Experiments on realistic power system models prove the effectiveness of the proposed
method in reducing distribution power loss and improving the overall efficiency of the
power system. This thesis also presents a model for improving the reliability of electric
power systems through reducing distribution power loss. Reliability of power systems
is a critical aspect as power outages can have significant economic and societal impacts.
The proposed approach utilizes a combination of control algorithms, different
calculation indexes, optimization techniques and redundancy strategies to minimize the
distribution power loss and improve the overall reliability of the power system. The
method is tested on realistic power system models, and results show the significant
improvement in reliability metrics such as system availability and frequency of power
outages. This approach can be a valuable tool for power system operators to enhance
the reliability of power systems and ensure continuity of power supply to end-users.
