文摘This paper proposes a branch-independence-based reliability assessment approach for transmission systems.The approach consists of branch decoupling and state-space partition techniques.By integrating an impact-increment-based reliability index calculation model and the proposed branch decoupling technique,a proportion of sampled contingency states no longer need to be analyzed using the time-consuming optimal power flow(OPF)algorithm.In this way,the technique speeds up the calculation of reliability indices.Since first-order contingency states have a high probability of being sampled,we propose a state-space partition technique to replace first-order contingency state simulation with first-order contingency state enumeration.Consequently,the calculation of reliability indices is further accelerated by avoiding a large amount of repetitive OPF analyses during simulation process without affecting reliability index accuracy.The validity and applicability of our approach are verified using the IEEE 118-bus and IEEE 145-bus systems.Numerical results indicate that the proposed approach can improve computational efficiency without decreasing accuracy.
