"Line loss," as this is called, gobbles up an estimated 2percentto3percentcent of electricity nationally.
The state electricity boards that distribute power in the country, are woefully inefficient, losing up to a fifth of the country's 100,000 megawatts of power output to line loss and theft.
Immediate direct revenue and cost benefits may not cover BT's annual £500m bill for rights, production and promotion, but reduced line loss, growing broadband share, fibre take-up, lower churn and better retention all imply 'losses' are closing rapidly".
It is also necessary for theoretical line loss analysis.
Firstly, the dynamic controller for line loss minimization is developed.
Line loss minimum conditions are deduced in Section 2.
Therefore, using the line loss minimization and security enhancement strategies together, security-constrained line loss minimization is achieved.
As shown in Fig. 7, the total line loss of the distribution system is reduced from 154.2 to 140.4 kW after the line loss minimization strategy is implemented.
Therefore, line loss minimization in distribution systems is critical to achieve energy saving.
