Abstract

The authors present a method for evaluating an interrupted energy assessment rate (IEAR) at each system customer load point considering the influence of outages in all parts of the electric power system. The developed IEAR can be used with the available adequacy indices in order to assess the severity associated with unsupplied energy due to supply interruptions. The IEAR can be used as a customer related index in making decisions regarding load curtailment philosophies and reliability related rate setting. The concept of utilizing a customer damage function in association with customer reliability indices is presented and illustrated using a reliability test system
