Sensitivity Analysis of Probabilistic Reliability Evaluation of KEPCO System Using TRELSS

The importance and conducting necessity studies on grid reliability evaluation have been increasingly important in recent years due to the number of black-out events occurring through in the world. Quantity evaluation of transmission system reliability is very important in a competitive electricity environment. The reason is that the successful operation of electric power under a deregulated electricity market depends on transmission system reliability management. Also in Korea it takes places. The results of many case studies for the KEPCO system using the transmission reliability evaluation for large-scale systems (TRELSS) Version 6.2, a program developed by EPRI are introduced in this paper. Some sensitivity analysis has been included in case study. This paper suggests that the some important input parameters of the TRELSS can be determined optimally from this sensitivity analysis for high reliability level operation of a system
