Transmission expansion planning based on relaxed N-1 criteria and reliability indices

This paper proposes a new methodology to solve the transmission expansion planning (TEP) problem based on relaxed N-1 criteria. An optimization technique is used to determine the best TEP plans through an adaptive multi-operator evolutionary approach. These plans are obtained by ensuring the N-1 security criterion and also relaxing it to accept pre-specified levels of equipment overload. The major focus is to measure probabilistically the relaxation of TEP plans through traditional reliability indices, and, consequently, the effectiveness of deterministic N-1 based approaches. Discussions are carried out using the results from two test systems: Modified IEEE-RTS and a configuration of the South Brazilian network.
