This paper analyzes the different ampacity limits used in power transmission lines, static line ratings (SLR) and dynamic line ratings (DLR). This paper seeks to quantify the economic benefits that are obtained and how much the wind generation increases based on different line ampacities. With information from monitoring systems and weather stations, ampacity predictions are made for use in the market and operational phases of the power system. Different simulations are carried out on the IEEE 24-bus system, using different ampacity values calculated based on considered risk levels. The results show the economic benefits of using DLR on the system lines.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
