“…This study has used the principles of TP of TOC to minimize the most important causal barrier, i.e. "absence of strategic planning of Indian power transmission system identified in the study" (Upreti et al, 2018 andUpreti et al, 2019). The key objective of the study is to enable planning of the transmission sector in a holistic manner using realistic and proactive approaches.…”

“…An overview of these challenges has been shown in Table I. In an another study conducted by Upreti et al (2019), have also emphasized that IPTS is going through a gloomy phase, where in transmission networks are choked and congested. In support of the study conducted by Upreti et al (2018), Upreti et al (2019) have identified critical challenges out of all the nine challenges identified by Upreti et al (2018) using two powerful methodologies, total interpretive structural modeling and analytic hierarchy process, it is necessary to eliminate these barriers immediately from the IPTS to evacuate power efficiently through the transmission network.…”

“…Hence, both the studies have emphasized that there is an urgent need to timely address underlying issues in the transmission sector to ensure power demand is effectively met in the future. This study, therefore, is the extension of the work conducted by Upreti et al (2018) and Upreti et al (2019), wherein an attempt has been made to mitigate the key causal challenge, i.e. absence of strategic planning by government, using system thinking approach of TOC.…”

Purpose This paper aims to present a practical and sequential application of the theory of constraints (TOC) to eliminate the critical barriers to Indian power transmission system (IPTS) that were limiting the entire power service quality. Design/methodology/approach This study uses a well-known management technique known as TOC, which has the capability and positive force to eliminate the barrier through sequential managerial procedures. TOC framework can provide practical guidance to stakeholders of the power transmission sectors through situational assessment, conflict resolution, planning and implementing changes required in the IPTS. Findings This study explains the utility of five-steps thinking process (TP) of TOC especially in the IPTS sector. The study also describes how each step of TP can improve the performance of IPTS against its specified goal. The study brings management’s attention on the system’s weak links that must be leveraged by eliminating them from the system. Major types of constraints are related to the restrictive policy of the sector that mainly include lack of strategic planning, lack of investments and lesser participation of the private players in the IPTS. This study further identifies and suggests various strategies to eliminate the critical barriers of IPTS. Originality/value The five-step process of TOC has been successfully applied in manufacturing sector and service sector processes, such as banking and medical services. This paper has uniquely applied TOC in the area of power sector, which is considered as one of key service sectors that form an important share for the Indian economy.

“…Throughout this procedure, the items in each set in the hierarchy are compared to their corresponding group members ( Munizu and Riyadi 2021 ). Professionals in the field are frequently asked to assess the relative importance of issues using the widely used Saaty's nine-point scale (see Table 3 ) ( Upreti et al., 2019 ). The scale goes from one to nine, with one indicating “equal importance of both indicators” and nine indicating “one indicator is much more important than the other.” As a consequence, the experts provide a numerical value to the judgment based on their pick.…”

“…As a final result the authors obtained that one of the algorithms was unambiguously ranked the highest for the user preferences selected. In [27] N. Upereti et al used AHP to identify critical challenges in the field of India's power transmission system on the basis of nine barriers indicated as holding back the development of the power sector of India. The analysis performed, which based on the experience of set of industry experts, power advisors, equipment manufacturers and policy makers, indicated that a necessity of intervention on the level of energy policy was the most critical challenge, which, after applying into the system, may cause neutralization other challenges considered.…”

A New Approach for Decision Support of the Selection of Construction Technology of High-Voltage Substations Based on AHP Method

et al. 2021

The process of building and modernizing the high voltage substations generate the problems concerning the determination of the optimal technological solutions, which should be friendly to the environment, meet the criteria of sustainable development and be cost effective. Since many institutions are involved in the decision making process to reach an optimal solution for the planned substation, consensus is sometimes not possible without the commitment of the instruments which support this decision. Hence, in this paper the authors proposed a new approach based on the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) method in relation to supporting the decision of choice of high voltage substation technology between two commonly applied solutions: Air Insulated Substation (AIS) and Gas Insulated Substation (GIS). On the basis of applied regulations as well as expert opinions a survey was prepared and then analyzed in terms of the elaborated criteria. The results show that the AHP method is well suited to the issue under consideration, indicating clearly that GIS technology is strongly preferred. Hence, this opens the discussion for the use of the AHP method in a wider form in the decision support process in the specific field, which high-voltage engineering is.
