Abstract

Many models were presented to solve the static transmission network expansion planning (STNEP) problem by previous research. However, in these models, lines’ voltage level and losses were not studied in STNEP. Therefore, in present paper, static transmission expansion planning is investigated by considering lines’ voltage, losses and bundles using decimal codification genetic algorithm (DCGA). The DCGA is better than mathematical methodologies to solve large-scale, nonlinear and mixed-integer optimization problems, like the TNEP. The proposed method is tested on the real transmission network of Azarbaijan regional electric company, Iran. The results show that operation costs decreases considerably and the transmission system delivered more safe and reliable electric power to customers if the network losses, voltage levels and the number of bundle lines are considered in transmission expansion planning.
