Presented by
Prof. Roy Billinton, Power System Research Group, University of Saskatchewan, Canada
Reliability Evaluation of Electric Power Systems
Abstract
This seminar will first briefly introduce some of the basic
probability concepts used in the reliability assessment of electric
power systems and then focus on the reliability evaluation of
generation, transmission and distribution systems. The utilization of
both analytical techniques and Monte Carlo simulation will be presented.
The reliability information requirements to support both predictive and
past performance assessments of load point and system reliability will
be illustrated using Canadian utility data. The seminar will also
illustrate the extension of conventional reliability indices to value
based reliability assessment incorporating customer interruption costs.
