“…In the recent literature, stochastic TEP problem can be solved either robust optimization [6][7][8], two or multi-stage stochastic optimization [9][10][11][12][13] and chance constrained programming [4,5,[14][15][16][17][18][19]. In this study, we work with chance constraints under TEP optimization, which ensures the system constraints will be satisfied with a pre-specified probability.…”

Integrating more renewable energy sources into the grid leads to a more vulnerable power system and presents challenges for power system planners. This paper proposes a probabilistic overload constraint based AC transmission expansion planning model. In terms of economic dispatch, generation adequacy and network constraints are assessed using a probabilistic participation factor power flow. Generation participation factors, which are handled in the AC power flow equations, are used to manage mismatch power that comes from uncertainties as well as transmission loss of the system in a distributed slack bus concept. Combinations of load, wind and N-1 contingency uncertainties are evaluated with Monte Carlo Simulation and the loading limits for the existing and candidate lines and violations on bus voltages are enforced as probabilistic constraints using chance constraint programming. The investment decisions taken under various operating conditions are re-evaluated under a new set of wind power uncertainty that differs from those utilized in the optimization process, and the resulting TEP decisions are analyzed from a risk perspective. The proposed method allows for the uncertain operating conditions to be easily and accurately adapted to the ACTEP optimization. The optimization results show that the participation factor power flow is a promising tool for evaluating probabilistic operating conditions, which can be used to explore the possibility of violations under different uncertainty conditions.
