Abstract
Conference Title: 2018 North American Power Symposium (NAPS) Conference Start Date: 2018, Sept. 9 Conference End Date: 2018, Sept. 11 Conference Location: Fargo, ND, USA The recent past has seen an influx of new generator interconnection to the power grid. Some of these new generator interconnections occur at places where there isn’t enough transmission capability and hence get curtailed or penalized during the real time operations. In this paper a procedure is proposed to calculate the maximum possible MW injections with the help of Power Transfer Distribution Factors at each of the buses in the power grid without violating transmission limits. This in turn identifies areas on the grid with abundant transmission capability. The above calculation is computationally intensive, and GPUs were used to accelerate the computation and a speed up gain of up is a factor 186 for 9241 bus system.
