DEFINITION:
PROCESS OF MONITORING,
CO-ORDINATING AND CONTROLLING THE

GENERATION, TRANSMISSION &

DISTRIBUTION OF ELECTRICAL ENERGY.

LAYERS OF A MODERN EMS

SIGNIFICANCE:
EMS IS DESIGNED TO GUIDE THE OPERATOR TO MANAGE THE SYSTEM. DURING NORMAL OPERATION, HELPING TO MANAGE THE SYSTEM IN AN OPTIMUM WAY.

DURING AN EMERGENCY CONDITION, EMS CAN PRESENT

A POWER SYSTEM RESTORATION PLAN. TO PROCESS THE SYSTEM DATA & MAKE AVAILABLE THE ENHANCED INFORMATION TO THE SYSTEM OPERATOR.

FUNCTIONS OF EMS:
SYSTEM LOAD FORECAST

UNIT COMMITMENT
FUEL SCHEDULING HYDRO-THERMAL SCHEDULING TRANSACTION EVALUATION TRANSMISSION LOSS MINIMIZATION

SECURITY CONSTRAINED DISPATCH

PRODUCTION COST CALCULATION

APPLICATIONS:
COMPUTATION OF ACTIVE & REACTIVE POWER FLOW IN TRANSMISSION LINES. TO ESTIMATE THE QUALITY OF THE MEASUREMENTS OBTAINED FROM THE SCADA SYSTEM. TO OBTAIN COMPLETE POWER FLOW INFORMATION OF ELECTRIC POWER SYSTEM. TO PROVIDE ADVANCED GRAPHICAL PRESENTATION OF POWER SYSTEM. TO MINIMIZE THE N/W LOSSES AND GENERATION COSTS BY COMPUTING THE POSSIBLE CHANGES IN GENERATION & VOLTAGE LEVELS.
