Abstract:Abstract:The major objective of any electric distribution system (DS) operators in the present competitive market is to increase the service quality with improved reliability and lesser energy cost. This objective can be achieved by maintaining the balance between the reliability and cost of investments. In this work, system reliability is improved by using reserve capacity considering load growth. A sequential load growth model is presented for addition of load in non-integer years which is essential for sequ… Show more
