Abstract
this paper investigates different techniques for
improving the capacity of the EHV transmission system. This
paper will discuss and demonstrate three techniques taking into
account the technical and economic aspects. Thermal uprating
by using high temperature-low sag conductors (HTLS) instead
of the conventional conductors, uprating voltage level and
reactive power compensation by using static Var compensator
(SVC) can improve the transferred power through the
transmission system.
