Turkish Power System: From Conventional Past to Smart Future
Özet
Smart grids are becoming an important issue in the future power system network configurations. Main goal of smart grid is to intelligently integrate the behavior and actions of all users connected to it. There are many researches dealing with the implementation of a self-healed, reliable, sustainable, economic, safe and highly efficient power system network. Many new challenges try to solve the problems that face to transform the conventional grid into a smart grid because of renewable energy integration, communication errors and smart meter disturbance. One of the basic priorities of Turkish Power System is the supply security. Therefore, competitive deregulated market has been restructuring to improve supply security. The generation and distribution parts of Turkish Power System have already been partly privatized. At this initial phase of future smart grid, Distributed generations are being extended as well as installation of remote control and monitoring facilities. In addition, regulatory issues regarding the smart grid are being organized. This paper is focused on the evolution of conventional Turkish Electric Power System, as to constitute a smart grid.
