Transmission-loss is an inherent nature of power system. Determination of transmission losses for the purposes of billing in various interconnected trans-actions is an important issue to be solved exactly. Loss allocation is a procedure for subdividing the system transmission losses into fractions, the cost of which becomes the responsibility of network users. This paper focuses on transmission loss allocation procedures and provides a detailed comparison of some alternative algorithms: viz. 1) Incremental loss allocation, 2) A proportional allocation, 3) Preliminary loss allocation and 4) A direct methodology for loss allocation. A case study based on a 6-bus model power system has been provided. Finally conclusions and recommendations have been stated. Key words: Transmission loss allocation, DC optimal power flow, Deregulated power market, Loss coefficient matrix, Non-volatile procedure. DOI: 10.3329/bjsir.v44i3.4401 Bangladesh J. Sci. Ind.

This paper presents a new method for transmission loss allocation in a deregulated power system. As the power loss is a nonlinear quantity, so to allocate the loss in a common transmission corrider is a difficult task. It allocates transmission losses to loads based on the actual power flow in the lossy lines due to the concerned load. Each lossy line is subdivided into as many sub-lines as corresponding to the numbers of load attached to it. The tracing of power flow through each sub-line is worked out by using proportional sharing method. The power loss in each lossy line is equal with the total loss due to all the sub-lines under it. Then by using Pro-rata for each lossy line, the individual loss for each sub-line is formulated. As the application of Pro-rata is limited to an individual line of the system, so the error in calculation is minimized. The total loss allocated to a particular load is the sum of losses occurred in each lossy lines through which the power is flowing to the concerned load. As this method is based on the actual flow of power in the transmission line corresponding to the concerned load, hence, the loss allocation made by the method gives proper and justifiable allocations to the different loads which are attached to the system.<strong> </strong>The proposed method is applied to a six-bus system and finds the mismatch in the commonly used methods. Then, it is applied to higher bus systems in which more accurate results are obtained compared to the other methods.

Deregulation of power industry has made us think over the transmission loss allocation to network users and to various interconnected transactions including bilateral one. It is an important issue to be solved exactly. Because of the non-linear nature of power flow and power loss, it is very difficult to segregate and to allocate losses among the participants properly. This paper presents an instantaneous loss allocation algorithm including DC-Optimal Power Flow. Using Incremental Transmission Loss (ITLs) factors and the power outputs of generators, we have calculated preliminary loss to each generator. Calculating loss allocation rates from the preliminary losses, the final loss allocation has been done (according to loss allocation rate) to meet the total loss calculated by DC-OPF. The effectiveness of this procedure has been studied for a small model power system and also for the IEEE-118-bus system.

Under open access environment in the era of deregulated power industry, transmission loss allocation to various transactions is one of the important issues to be solved exactly. Because of the non-linear nature of power flow and power loss, it is very difficult to segregate and to allocate losses among the participants properly. This paper presents a New DC method (NDC) where an efficient loss allocation algorithm has been applied. Considering the impact of every line flow in a network, the loss allocations to the loads have been computed at first and finally the total loss has been allocated to the generators. The effectiveness of this procedure has been studied for the 6-bus and IEEE 118-bus model power systems. Several numerical analyses implicate that the proposed loss allocation procedure including the DC load flow model is reasonably acceptable.
