Abstract

The basic allocation procedure and the cycling procedure outlined above are tools which hopefully will be useful to the utility in its system planning. More research is necessary to (1) extend the present method to a full- scale optimization and (2) extend and modify the procedures to consider trade- offs in cost of capacitor allocation over time. The ultimate goal would be to develop a procedure which optimally planned both capacitor and generation capacity increases over a number of years. The procedures presented here are a step toward this goal.
