As part of ensuring electrical power system reliability, regulatory authorities require that the electrical system meet defined system performance requirements under various contingency conditions. N-1-1 contingency conditions permit the system operator to perform system adjustments following an N-1 contingency, in order to secure the system prior to a subsequent N-1 contingency.

This webinar will demonstrate how Optimization Toolbox and Parallel Computing Toolbox can be used for performing automated N-1-1 contingency analysis, security constrained optimal power flow, and calculation of nodal prices.  The workflow will be demonstrated through application of DC power flow on an example system containing 3000+ buses, 7000+ transmission lines, 500+ generators, and over one million combinations of N-1-1 contingency conditions.

It will then be demonstrated how a Simultaneous Feasibility Test (SFT) with a given Financial Transmission Right (FTR) proration strategy may be implemented within the constrained optimization framework.

A Q&A session will follow the presentation.
