Distribution Network Reconfiguration for Control of the Demand Contract with Transmission System

A difficulty of power utilities is related to contracting demand of the transmission companies. To look for a better use of contracted levels there are some management techniques, as can be cut or reassignment loads. Thus the present work seeks to develop a methodology for demand management technique using automatic reconfiguration of distribution network. The methodology proposed is load exchange between nearby substations, avoiding an excessive demand. To validate the technique are explored case studies and an experimental network, these being based on real networks. This method can be efficient to application, managing the demand contract between power utilities and performing automatic actions of load transferring by distribution networks.
