A comprehensive framework for an assessment of NEPA’s generation adequacy is presented. Generation adequacy is the ability of a generation to supply its load taking into account the load fluctuations and random events that affect generation capacity. To assess this ability, depending on the assessment horizon, present and future load demands are prerequisites. Load forecast for 1989 through 2000 is presented. Reliability/adequacy indices which provide the means for quantifying system’s generation adequacy are considered. Generation adequacy assessment techniques are discussed and the loss of load method adopted. This method is demonstrated by applying it to the NEPA system and the generation adequacy assessed. Finally, a graphic representation of NEPA’s adequacy is presented.
