Reliability evaluation of interconnected power systems Case study: Interconnectionbetween K.R.E.C & I.I.P.S

At present, in electrical interconnection problem, reliability of generating system is one of the most important factors that can be considered by system's management. The adequacy of the generating capacity in a power system is normally improved by interconnecting the system to another power system. Eech interconnected system can then operate at a given risk level with a lower reserve than would be required without the interconnection. On the other hand, it has economical benefits and reduction of load shedding. In this paper, after a brief theoretical study of the evaluation techniques, by using a computer program and based on available information, electrical interconnection between Iran interconnected network and K.E.R.C network studied and the results has been presented.
