Network Planning with Power Tracing and Analytics Tool

Due to the historic network development and reinforcements with the growth of the demand, the traditional evaluating method may not fit for the requirements of modern smart grid. To understand our network from a new viewpoint, an analysing tool is developed to study the network data. The tool combines the power tracing theory with an analytics platform. The sequences of our simulation are in three steps and sample bus system will be used for test purpose in this paper. The simulation includes automatic load flow calculation under the N-1 scenarios, the power tracing analysis and resulting analytics. The power tracing model defines the commons and calculated the contributions of the generators to the loads. The analysing algorism and analytic tool will analyse the results and identify the issues within the network. Running the power tracing and analytics tool will give further insight into the extent of an optimised network configuration that fit with the requirements of smart grid.
