| Abstract | The method of calculating generation reliability indices had
been developed for over three decades; however, the accuracy of
its estimation is still doubtful. This study used the historical
record of Taiwan Power Company as a data base to estimate the
generation reliability indices as if we did not know the records
and then use the result to compared with the actual records in
order to evaluate the generation reliability indices method . A
computer program with eight sub routines was developed in this
thesis study according to the developed theorem and a new load
shape approximation method.
Monthly load duration curves for each year were estimated
and transferred into weekly load duration curves. After this,
forced outage rate s of units were convolved with the approximated
load duration curve to yield an equivalent load curve of
customer' s demand by weekly intervals. Hydro energy were then
shaved from the equivalent load duration curve according to two
policies, namely economic water policy and defensive water
policy, c hose n by the cases. At last, generation reliability
indices Hourly Loss Of Load Expectation & Expected Energy Not
Served) were calculated after hydro output was considered.
Eight cases of different assumptions were calculated in the
study a nd compared with the actual records. It shows that this
method have better estimations when the reserved margin of the
system is higher than 1 5%. Therefore , it is still a useful tool
for the planning of future power expansion program. |
