This paper presents a multi-year transmission expansion planning (TEP) model which considers the transmission congestion and the impact of generation investment cost in the planning horizon. The Benders decomposition approach is utilized which decomposes TEP into a master problem and two subproblems representing security and optimal operation. The operation cost due to congestion (OCC) is considered in the proposed model given that the congestion level is a proper criterion for measuring the degree of competitiveness in an electricity market. The model evaluates sensitivity of the optimal TEP to congestion level, planning horizon, and financial constraints. Regulators can utilize the proposed results to provide long-term TEP to market players and to develop incentive mechanisms to trigger generation investments. The proposed approach is applied to a hypothetical system and Turkish power system.

Transmission and substation expansion planning using mixed integer programming
Cebeci, Mahmut Erkut; EREN, Sinan; Tor, Osman Bülent; Güven, Ali Nezih (2011-08-06)
This paper presents a novel planning approach which optimizes size and location of new transmission substation (TS) investments considering capacity expansion of the existing TSs based on primary distribution network investment requirements. Mixed Integer Programming (MIP) is utilized and the problem is decomposed into investment and feasibility check subproblems. The algorithm is formulated to minimize total investment cost while supplying the spatial forecasted load considering a set of system constraints...
Congestion-driven transmission planning considering incentives for generator investments
Tör, Osman Bülent; Güven, Ali Nezih; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2008)
This thesis study focuses on transmission expansion planning (TEP) problem for restructured power systems and addresses challenges specifically in countries where electricity market is in developing phase after liberalization of power industry for establishing a competitive market, like Turkey. A novel multi-year TEP approach is developed which considers generation investment cost and transmission congestion level in the planning horizon. The model assesses the impact of generation investments on TEP proble...
Hydro-Optimization-Based Medium-Term Price Forecasting Considering Demand and Supply Uncertainty
İLSEVEN, Engin; Göl, Murat (2018-07-01)
This paper proposes an electricity market model of Turkish electricity market for monthly and yearly electricity price forecasting in medium-term by means of supply and demand dynamics formed via a theoretical approach. The electricity market model created within this scope consists of three main components related to electricity demand, supply, and price segments along with hydro optimization submodel, which takes into account the nonlinear relation between supply and price. Electricity price is determined...
Transmission management and planning: The aftermath of Turkish electricity restructuring
Tor, Osman Bulent; Shahidehpour, Mohammad (2006-09-19)
The key to enhancing electricity restructuring is to have an adequate competition in the generation sector of power industry. This concept requires a sufficient transmission capacity to support trading in electricity markets, while maintaining the system reliability. However, transmission expansion planning (TEP) for managing adequate transmission capacity is a major challenge which involves uncertainties and risks in restructured electricity environment. This study reviews TEP issues in a general perspecti...
