Wheeling of Power under Deregulated Environment of Power System: A Bibilographical Survey

The power industry is moving rapidly from regulated conventional setups to a deregulated envirorment. There is an urgent need to keep a track of intemational experiences and activities taking place in this emerging field. This paper gives a bibliographical survey and general background of research and development in the field of power system wheeling under a deregulated environment based on over 170 published articles. Wheeling in general and the establishment of wheeling rate in particular are subjects of extensive debate today. This will be very useful for all countries, especially those developing countries that are moving towards the unbundling of electricity supply industry. The collected literature have been divided into many sections so that new researchers do not face any difficulty obtaining literature, particularly in the area of wheeling of power under deregulated environments.
