Evaluating Power Reliability Dedicated for Sudden Disruptions: Its Application to Determine Capacity on the Basis of Energy Security
Abstract
:1. Introduction
2. Materials and Methods
2.1. Development and Evaluation of Electricity Reliability Index Dedicated for the Sudden Disruption
- Analysis of the sustainable duration for the electrical system
- Computation of the sustainable duration analysis to obtain the SESDI for the electrical system.
2.1.1. Sustainable Duration Analysis for the Electrical System
- Initialization of system parameters. The instant of trouble is 00:00 h. The trouble rate is 1 (100% failure). The trouble duration is 1 min.
- Run the simulation and check if there is any energy deficit. An energy deficit occurs when all energy sources have been depleted by the consumption of the electrical system.
- If there is no energy deficit, the simulation is repeated with increasing trouble duration in steps of 1 min until the energy deficit is obtained. Once the energy deficit is obtained, the previous trouble duration is recorded as the sustainable duration for the particular instant of trouble and trouble rate.
- Repeat Steps 2 and 3 for the increasing instant of trouble in step 00:01 h until 24:00 h.
- Repeat Steps 2 to 4 for decreasing trouble rate in steps of 0.1 until a trouble rate of 0 is reached.
- The above obtained results are then plotted on the sustainable duration versus instant of trouble graph.
2.1.2. Computation of the Sustainable Duration Analysis to Obtain the SESDI for the Electrical System
2.2. Site Identification and System Modelling as an Illustrative Study
3. Results
3.1. Calculation of Solar PV Power Delivery Curve from Five Sides of Building
3.2. Identification of the Minimum Required Installed Capacity for Base Supply
3.3. Sustainable Duration Analysis
3.4. Evaluation of the SESDI
4. Discussion
- The possible range of the base supply capacity will be identified through analysis of the sustainable duration.
- Three indicators were computed based on the different base supply capacities.
- The computed values were normalized to be expressed in common units and were aggregated to obtain the energy security index.
