In this paper, improvement in the power transfer capacity of transmission lines (TLs) by utilizing a multi-terminal high voltage direct current (MT-HVDC) grid is discussed. A multi-terminal HVDC grid designed for wind power can be used as an extra transmission path in interconnected systems during low wind conditions, and provides extra dynamic stability and security. This paper deals with the power transfer capacity as well as the small signal (SS) stability assessments in less damped oscillations accompanying inter area modes. Computation of the maximum allowable power transfer capability is assessed via DC optimal power flow-based control architecture, permitting more power transfer with a definite security margin. The test system is assessed with and without the exploitation of MT-HVDC grid. Simulation work is done using a generic computational framework i.e., international council on large electric systems (CIGRE) B4 test bench with a Kundur’s two area system, shows that voltage source converters (VSCs) provide excellent control and flexibility, improving the power transfer capability keeping the system stable.

In the India, especially in metropolitan areas, transmission infrastructure is congested due to a combination of increasing load demands, declining investment, and aging facilities. It is anticipated that significant investments will be required for new construction and upgrades in order to serve load demands. This paper explores higher phase order systems, specifically, six-phase, as a means of increasing power transfer capability, and provides a comparison with conventional three-phase double circuit transmission lines. Line parameters calculations performed in this thesis show that line impedances in six-phase lines have a slight difference, compared to three-phase double circuit line. The electric and magnetic fields calculations show that, ground level electric fields of the six-phase lines decline more rapidly as the distance from center of the lines increase. The six-phase lines have a better performance on ground level magnetic field. Based on the electric and magnetic field results, right of way requirements for the six-phase lines and three-phase double circuit line were calculated. The calculation results of right of way show that six-phase lines provide higher power transfer capability with a given right of way.

The major challenges in deregulated system are determination of available transfer capability on the interconnected transmission lines. Electricity industry deregulation is the required for creating a competitive market throughout the world, which instigate new technical issues to market participants and Power System Operators (PSO). Power transfer capability is a crucial parameter to decide the power flow in the lines for further transactions and the estimation of Transfer Capability decides the power transactions based on the safety and ability of the system. This parameter will decide if an interconnected network could be reliable for the transfer of bulk power between two different areas of the network without causing risk to system consistency. The Power Transfer Distribution Factor (PTDF) is the sensitivity index, which decides the transfer capability in the interconnected network under deregulated power systems. This experiment is conducted on IEEE-6 bus system using Power World Simulator to determine the transfer capability in deregulated system under line outage condition.
