Abstract

This paper aims al minimizing energy losses in the Mid-Delta zone using load flow methods. The mathematical model is applied to the Mid-Delta zone. The 220 kV network is modeled in the load flow program for each season of the year while the losses in the high voltage substations. medium voltage network and medium voltage substations are calculated using a heuristic approach. 
This paper presents a practical approach that would asist, the decision making process in an electric utility to optimize the operation procedures to save investements required to install new equipment to meet the growth on electric demand if the losses are minimized.
