Interconnection of Electrical Engergy Between Neigbouring Countries : Sudan - Ethiopia

Abstract

The aim of Sudan-Ethiopia electrical power interchange is to make use of the surplus water for hydro-generation in Ethiopia and to reduce the thermal generation in Sudan. In order to achieve this aim mentioned above, it requires that the interconnected transmission line between the two countries should be more stabile and reliable. The transmission interconne The aim of Sudan-Ethiopia electrical power interchange is to make use of the surplus water for hydro-generation in Ethiopia and to reduce the thermal generation in Sudan. In order to achieve this aim mentioned above, it requires that the interconnected transmission line between the two countries should be more stabile and reliable. The transmission interconnection line parameters are calculated by using MATLAB program. By using these parameters the rating of static var compensator (SVC) is found, This can be installed through interconnection transmission line to compensate the receiving end open circuit voltage to the specified level (220 KV) at Gadaref Substation. A mathematical model is made based on this idea, and a computer program is employed, to get the results which are analyzed. Finally, a conclusion is made.
