Question
Please write the memo according to the instructions and make sure it is written clear and understandble to give you thumbs up!
This assignment proposal should consist of a memo about 1 page in length describing the intent and scope of the project. It should be more than the identification of the topic, but should include enough information to clearly communicate that your team has considered the project sufficiently that you understand what it entails. Include information about what source material you will draw from, what general assumptions you will make, your approach to the project, etc.

DESIGN PROJECT 2: SYSTEM PLANNING FOR GENERATION RETIREMENT After more than 70 years of supplying downtown Metropolis with electricity it is time to retire the SANDERS69 power plant. The city's downtown revi- talization plan, coupled with a desire for more green space, make it impossi- ble to build new generation in the downtown area. At the same time, a booming local economy means that the city-wide electric demand is still as high as ever, so this impending plant retirement is going to have some ad- verse impacts on the electric grid. As a planning engineer for the local utility Metropolis Light and Power (MLP), your job is to make recommendations on the construction of new lines and transformers to ensure that the trans- mission system in the MLP system is adequate for any base case or first con- tingency loading situation. The below table shows the right-of-way distances that are available for the construction of new 69 kV and/or new 138 kV lines. All existing 69 kV only substations are large enough to accommodate 138 kV as well Design Procedure 1. Load DesignCase2 into PowerWorld Simulator which contains the system dispatch without the SANDERS69 generator. Perform an initial power flow solution to determine the initial system operating point. From this solution you should find that all the line flows and bus voltage magnitudes are within their limits. Assume all line MVAExplanation / Answer

Subject: To advocate the re-engineering of new Transmission lines and transformers which are adeqaute for any base and first contingency loading before the retirement of SANDERS69 plant, in order to meet the Electrical load demand of the public.
Introduction: There are many adverse effects and consequences on the power system if the respective power plant is retired due to various reasons. In the present scenario, SANDERS69 power plant had supplied the power to downtown metropolis for 70 years and this is the time for its retirement. So before proceeding for the retirement of the plant there is an utmost necessity for the Planning Engineer to re-engineer the MLP power system's transmission lines and transformers to meet the adequacy of any base and ready for the loading conditions, moreover the recommendations which are to be done for the design of new transmission lines and transformers must be with respective to the generation capacities, transmission line parameters, bus impedances, per unit impedances of load and transformers.So, in this project we recommend some transmission line and transformer design parameters for their construction through considering cost, load conditions, per unit calculations,current,voltage and power ratings, load distribtions, cost per unit length considerations and demand considerations.
Key points: 1. The transmission lines and transformers must be designed in such a way that they are adequate for any base and they are ready for the loading conditions in various contingencies.
2. Performing intital power flow analysis through the power system network of MLP.
3. Calculating all the per unit values and load demands and losses in the MLP network.
4. Extrapolating the cost of construction, installation and estimation.
5. Optimal location of the new units implemantation and optimal distances for the power supply.
Assumptions:
1. The capacitor status and the transformer tappings at few locations should not be modified.
2.The system losses remain constant over the5 year period and need only considering the impact and new design has on the base case losses. The price for losses is assumed as 50$/MWh.
3.Consideration of the base case loading level is done according to the MLP network design.
4. Generator outputs are considered as the fixed values. Any changes in the losses are aklways picked up by the system slack.
Approach for the design:
STEP 1. Taking the MLP netwrok design as a reference for the design of the new transmission and transformers.
STEP 2.Performing initial power flow solutions to determine the initial system operating point.
STEP 3. From this solution, all the bus voltage magnitudes and line flows within their limits in accordance to limitations which were given are found.
STEP 4. n-1 contingency analysis is performed using powerWorld simulator.
STEP 5: performance analysis is done with and without including SANDER69 power plant.
STEP 6: Making report on initial working conditions of the system and problems faced and optimization of the design.
STEP 7: Justification of the re-engineered factors and recommendations which were done for the construction of new transmission lines and transformers construction.
