Abstract :
Interest in a new approach to the generator capacity reserve problem stemmed from an apprehension that past methods were becoming inadequate because of the growth and increasing complexity of generating and transmission components. It is apparent that the probability theory fulfills the requirements, for both the current and the future/planned operations.
