هزینه ارزیابی افت متغیر با زمان در شبکه های توزیع با استفاده از بازار قیمت حاشیه ای

In the electric power system planning process, engineers seek to identify the most cost-effective means of serving the load within reliability and power quality criteria. In order to accurately assess the cost of a given project, the feeder losses must be calculated. In the past, it was necessary to estimate the feeder losses based upon the peak load and a calculated load factor for the year. The cost of these losses would then be calculated based upon an expected, fixed per-kW h generation cost. This paper presents a more accurate means of calculating the cost of losses, using hourly feeder load information and time-varying electric energy cost data. This paper attempts to quantify the improvement in accuracy and presents an example where the economic evaluation of a planning project requires the more accurate loss calculation.
