The main objective of this project is to determine adequate network configuration for a specific practical power network system. Power network adequacy is a measure of its ability to supply the aggregate electric power and energy requirements of the customers within component ratings and voltage limits, taking into account planned and unplanned outages of system components. Improper network configuration results in weakness in a power transmission or distribution networks and limits flexibility in network operation. Using load flow analysis, power network adequacy can be evaluated in terms of adequate power network configuration. By utilizing the most adequate network configuration, it will be more economical at the same time maintaining the stability of the entire network system.
