Abstract
At
present
, the
North
American
electric
utility
industry
is
undergoing
fundamental
changes
that will
effect
the
means
by
which
revenues
are
generated.
One
of the
revenue
streams
that will
gain
importance
is
the
transmission
line
tariff.
Re-regulation
in this
industry
will
necessitate
some
means
for
estimating
the
contributions
made
by
each
system
generator
to the
total
power
flow
in the
transmission
system
in
order
to
approximate
the
tariff
costs
in
advance.
The
existing
literature
dealing
with
tariff
rate
design
presents
only
the
traditional
methods
for
attributing
the
current
in
transmission
lines
to their
sources.
One
such
method
is
the
procedure
of
performing
successive
load
flow
studies.
This
thesis
discusses
some
of the
proposed
toll
schemes
and
presents
a
mathematical
derivation
for
decomposing
the
total
power
flow
in a
transmission
line
into
components
attributable
to
contributing
generators.
The
method
is
based
on the
use
of the
inverse
admittance
matrix
for a
system
configuration
and the
results
from
load
flow
solutions.
It
has been
successfully
applied
to a
modified
standard
IEEE
14
bus
system
in an
effort
to
evaluate
its
suitability
for
application
to the
many
proposed
tariff
schemes
that
apportion
the
cost
of the
physical
plant
between
users.
The
simulations
produce
satisfactory
results
and
indicate
that this
simplified
method
is
suited
to the
philosophy
of the
costing
methodologies
anticipated
under
the
emerging
deregulation
regime.
For its
application
, the
proposed
method
requires
only
one
load
flow
solution
for the
operating
point
and
configuration
in
question.
The
technique
can
be
easily
incorporated
into
system
planning
software
as an
important
feature.
