Abstract :
Energy supply and stability are important
topics in modern society. In order to address both of
these needs, we have investigated ways of an
improvement on electrical transmission. Transmission
lines naturally lose energy that flows through them. We
analyzed the quality of being possible, making our
current electrical grid methods opposing the customarily
alternating current (AC) to lessen power lost in an
economical way. By comparing cost and energy loss.
This work aim at examining the power losses in Nigerian
330kV network, to provide dependable models and
techniques for the optimization of loss minimization in
330kV transmission network to provide dependable
technical model for loss reduction strategies
implementation. Electrical Transmission system takes
electric power from generation system and delivers it to
distribution. Moreover, an important parts of the
electric power generated is lost on the transmission
network. The implementation of the loss reduction
strategies was done using ETAP 16.0. The sum of all
energy loss is 824.184 MW which represent 21.41% of
total energy generation, by implementation of the losses
reductions strategies the total losses on the network, the
losses reduce to 657.734 MW which represents 17.1% of
the total sum of energy generated and represent 20.2%
reduction of the total sum of energy loss. This percentage
(17.1%) revels that there is a total loss reduction of
about 4.31% of losses for strategy one. Losses reduced
from 639 MW to 200.990 MW representing 44.8% of
the sum of energy losses of 824.142 MW and losses
reduced from 200.990 MW to 158.64 MW which
represents 19.25 % of energy losses on the previous
strategy on the network for the case of strategy 2 and 3
respectively. The total energy recovered from the
implementation of the loss strategies to the network is
521.69 MW which represents 63.2% of the energy loss
recovered
