This paper conducts a detailed technical analysis of the integration of solar and wind energy into Nigeria's 330 kV power grid. Despite extensive power sector reforms, Nigeria's energy demand continues to surpass supply, with heavy reliance on fossil fuels leading to an unreliable and unsustainable power system. Give…
This work aimed at providing a qualitative analysis of technical losses in transmission lines using Nigerian 330 kV lines as a case study. The specific objectives of this study include mathematical modeling of the Nigeria transmission network, incorporating long transmission lines effects on a 52-bus network. The sys…
Nigeria is faced with endemic electricity generation problem which has remained a big obstacle to her becoming one of the developed nations of the world despite her being endowed with vast natural resources. There exist many power generating stations in Nigeria that are not operating at full capacity. Many methodolo…
Despite Nigeria’s key position in Africa, electric power crisis and frequent outages in the Nation have degenerated to a major acute problem. These problems are associated with inadequate generation, insufficient and unreliable evacuation/transmission of same. As a result, dispatch centers and distribution companies …
Transient stability analysis has recently become a major issue in the operation of power system due to the increasing stress on power system networks. Solving this problem requires evaluation of power system’s ability to withstand disturbances while maintaining the quality of service. This paper provides a study of …
Overhead bare conductors on steel towers or concrete poles are utilized in transmission and distribution of bulky electric power. These conductors are bare and do not have any insulated coating over them. To ensure safe operation of the lines, a necessary clearance between metal structure in case of tower and bare co…
