Abstract
This paper describes the principles of a load flow based method for allocating the cost of transmission capacity. The method estimates the usage of each transmission facility with cost defined on a per facility basis. Embedded, incremental and marginal cost of transmission capacity are defined and compared to each other. A discussion of other load flow based methods and their application to marginal cost is included
