Analysis of Mediterranean States Power Markets and Transmission

Networks in context of Solar Exports to Europe

In connection with the DESERTEC Project (a concept of installing 150GW

capacity of concentrated solar plants (CSPs) in North African Sahara desert

and transporting it to Europe via a super grid), an assessment of existing

infrastructure of North African Mediterranean States energy markets and

transmission networks is carried out. The aim of this thesis is to answer

questions, like, locations of the CSPs and implications of DESERTEC Project

on current infrastructure of the Mediterranean states. The investigation

carried out includes the study of existing generation technologies,

development of generation capacities, increase in peak load demands,

operation of energy markets inclusive of transmission and distribution

companies, extent of market liberalization, tariffs, transmission networks

infrastructure, electrical interconnections and power flows. To run an

energy market simulation of the existing capacity, an estimation technique

to determine the hourly based yearly load profile is developed. A regression

model is also developed to forecast and correlate the development in peak

load demand based on economic growth.

Long Term Planning of Medium Voltage (10 kV) Networks

Network planning is carried out with the goal to minimize the total costs

while satisfying all the technical requirements. The economic evaluations

include the investment costs, operational/ maintenance costs and cost of

energy losses. The technical evaluations include the load flow calculations,

reliability of power supply (interruption frequency, duration and

probability), thermal limits of equipment and voltage quality (in normal and

disturbed operation). The network is planned using the Green Field

method.

Computer Aided Planning of High Voltage (110 kV) and Extra High

Voltage (380/ 220 kV) Systems

To supply an arc furnace of 85 MVA, three different connection possibilities

are analyzed both technically and economically. The economic evaluations

include the calculation of investment and loss costs. The technical

evaluation includes the load flow calculations. The reliability is calculated

using the (n-1) contingency criterion.
