Electricity tracing method of generation and loss cost allocation

Continuing trend toward deregulation has resulted in the need to assess what the impact of a particular generator or load is on the power system. A new method of tracing the flow of electricity in electrical networks is proposed which may be applied to assess how much of real and reactive power output from a particular generator goes to a particular load. It also allows the assessment of contribution of individual generators (or loads) to individual line flow. In this paper according to "who use, who pay", we use this method to break down the total generation and loss cost into components to be allocated to individual loads. This method can be useful in providing additional insight into power system operation and can be used to modifying existing tariffs of charging for generation services.
