Description
Transmission switching (TS) has shown to be an ef-fective power flow control tool. TS can reduce the system cost, improve system reliability, and enhance the management of in-termittent renewable resources. This paper addresses the state of the art problem of TS by developing an AC-based real-time con-tingency analysis (RTCA) package with TS. The package is tested on real power system data, taken from energy management sys-tems of PJM, TVA, and ERCOT. The results show that post-contingency corrective switching is a ready to be implemented transformational technology that provides substantial reliability gains. The computational time and the performance of the devel-oped RTCA package, reported in the paper, are promising.
