Abstract :
Reliability evaluation at the generation level plays an important role in the electric power system. A deterministic method known as levelised reserve method has been used to evaluate the reliability. Multi class maintenance scheduling has been optimized using genetic algorithm (GA) for thermal generating units considering statutory safety norms. The case studies pertaining to power grid of Orissa State in India validate the efficacy.
