108 INTRODUCTION
109 Large-capacity power sources including large-scale renewable energy have recently been
110 developed, which are generally located far away from the load center. To meet the requirements
111 for large power transmission, some countries have introduced, or are considering introducing,
112 ultra high voltage (UHV) transmission systems, overlaying these on the existing transmission
113 systems at lower voltages such as 420 kV and 550 kV.
114 The objective of UHV AC power system planning/design is to achieve both economic efficiency
115 and high reliability, considering its impact on systems at lower voltages such as 420 kV and
116 550 kV.
117 Moreover, UHV AC transmission systems requires comparatively large space so that how to
118 realize to minimize and optimize the size and structure of UHV AC transmission lines and
119 substation apparatus is another important issue.

137 ISO and IEC maintain terminological databases for use in standardization at the following

141 4 Objective and key issues of UHV AC transmission application
142 4.1 Objective
143 Recently, large-capacity power sources including large-scale renewable energy have been
144 developed, in most cases, far away from the load centres. To fully utilise these facilities, it is
145 important to transmit power generation from these sources efficiently. Evacuation through Extra
146 High Voltage (EHV) network enhancements would need more lines (Right-of-way, ROW) and
147 substation, increasing transmission losses and worsening fault current problems.
148 UHV transmission systems are characterized with large capacity over long distances and can
149 provide a solution to address above issues by minimising ROW and Switchyard requirements,
150 effectively less losses, improvement of fault current conditions etc.
151 For example, the transmission Surge Impedance Loading (SIL) capacity of an 1100 kV
152 transmission line can replace 4 to 5 of 550 kV lines, effectively reducing one-third of the tower
153 materials and one-half of the wires. It can save construction cost of the power lines and
154 substations.
155 UHV transmission system has many features as follows:
156 – Large- capacity, long-distance and high-efficiency power transmission
157 – Decrease of ROW required for transferring per unit GW
158 – Improvement of fault current condition and system stability
159 – Reduction of environmental impact
160 – Reduction of transmission losses
161 Many UHV projects have been launched and are in commercial operation.

162 Note: Introduction of an UHV AC transmission systems can lessen or solve fault current problems in most cases,
163 however, the effect of UHV on short circuit issues should be seen in totality.
164 4.2 Key application issues
165 UHV AC transmission systems are capable of transmitting large amounts of electric power.
166 However, if a failure occurs in an UHV AC system, the system influence can be severe from the
167 viewpoints of reliability and overall security of the supply of the power system. Especially, UHV
168 AC transmission systems design should be considered to improve lightning and switching
169 protection performance.
170 In UHV AC transmission systems, typical phenomenon depends on the length of the
171 transmission line. For the phenomenon due to the long transmission line, reactive power issues
172 such as voltage rise due to the Ferranti effect and geometrical mean distance for increasing
173 surge impedance loading (SIL) should be taken care. For high voltage issues, secondary arc
174 extinction, TOV (Temporary Over-Voltage) at load shedding, and DC time constant of short-
175 circuit currents are also necessary to be considered.
176 In addition, size and cost of equipment are large so that system design should consider
177 minimizing visual impact, construction/maintenance costs and transmission losses, and
178 increasing the network connectivity by forecasting generation and load scenarios.
179 5 Required studies on UHV AC system planning / design
180 5.1 General
181 Early strategic system planning is conducted to meet their load growth and power source
182 development planning. Once it is determined that a new transmission line is required in the
183 system, preliminary economic feasibility study and project design begin.
184 In the term of project design, three primary decisions must be addressed in a transmission-line
185 project at the conceptual stage at first capacity, voltage, and route.
186 Furthermore, strategic planning, as it relates to the environmental permitting process, is often
187 overlooked or viewed as being of secondary importance. Early strategic planning for the project-
188 specific environmental review process can avoid significant effects on a project’s schedule,
189 costs, and ultimate success.
190 5.2 Required studies
191 The analytical studies can be divided into three types, corresponding to chronological phases
192 of a project’s planning, design, and implementation:
193 1) System planning study
194 In the planning stages, wherever new lines are needed, the voltage and current ratings, and
195 major auxiliary equipment such as shunt compensation are determined. At this stage, system
196 contingencies are considered. Further studies need to be carried out for various power demand
197 and generation scenarios, typical ones including peak demand, off peak demand for various
198 seasons (Summer/Winter/Rain), to check adequacy of the proposed transmission system. The
199 basic study is a power flow calculation for which positive sequence parameters are adequate.
200 2) System impact study or detailed system design study
201 The impact of new planned transmission or generation on the power system should be
202 evaluated by the system impact study. Based on the impact study, the high-level specification
203 has to be determined. The system impact study may result in some adjustments, or mitigations
204 applied to the system.

63042-102/Ed1/CDV IEC (E) – 8 – 122/94/CDV
205 Study topics include harmonic resonance, short-circuit currents, transient stability, voltage
206 stability, and system relaying. The study tools include short circuit, stability, and harmonic
207 analysis programs, and in some cases an electromagnetic transient analytical program to
208 explore resonant overvoltages. The modelling needs to vary from lumped parameter to
209 distributed parameter, from positive sequence to three-phase unbalanced representation, and
210 from DC to a few kHz, depending on the subject. Models are often generic in early studies, later
211 progressing to specific models for particular equipment.
212 3) Equipment and system design study
213 Detailed protection and operating procedures for the switchgear, shunt compensation, and
214 related equipment are established. The basic study tool is an electromagnetic transient
215 analytical program.
216 Accurate frequency dependent models are preferable and sometimes necessary for many of
217 these studies.
218 5.3 Required analyses tools
219 The main considerations are power flow, fault current, voltage control, dynamic stability and
220 operational criteria that include reliability and system security.
221 Once the high-level specification (number and type of conductors, voltage level, current rating,
222 and reactive power compensation) has been determined, a more detailed design phase follows
223 to specify equipment, such as circuit breakers, shunt reactors, and surge arrestors. No
224 foreseeable problem should affect the reliable and safe operation of the system.
225 The analysis tool by time-domain mentioned in Figure 1.
226
227 Figure 1 Analysis tool by time domain
228 Line Constants – a program that calculates and represents electrical RLC parameters in a
229 matrix form for a general system of tower and conductors, over a range of frequencies, and
230 using either transposed or full unbalanced assumptions. This function may be bundled with
231 another tool, or used separately.

63042-102/Ed1/CDV IEC (E) – 9 – 122/94/CDV
232 Power flow – calculate steady-state voltages and currents based on a positive sequence model,
233 with nonlinear loads. The line model is symmetric and transposed. Power flow is the basic tool
234 for transmission planning.
235 Short-Circuit – a program that solves for voltage and current during faults, especially three-
236 phase and single-phase-to-ground faults. The model is linear, symmetric, and assumes phase
237 transposition. An auxiliary protection function simulates the response of relays to fault current
238 and voltage.
239 Dynamics – a time-domain simulator based on numerical integration of differential equations. It
240 differs from an Electromagnetic Transients Program (EMTP) in focusing on (slower)
241 electromechanical and control system transients, rather than electromagnetic transients. The
242 models are sometimes linear and balanced. The program usually includes eigenvalue analysis,
243 or other functions for small-signal stability.
244 Harmonics – a frequency domain program that solves voltage and current over a range of
245 frequencies, using linear or non-linear load and source models, and balanced or unbalanced
246 impedances. The frequency-scan function outputs driving point impedance, as obtained from
247 the bus voltage for a unit current injection.
248 EMTP – a time-domain or transient simulator based on numerical integration of differential
249 equations, including non-linear component models, unbalanced impedances, and frequency-
250 dependent RLC parameters. An EMTP can also perform frequency scans, and may include an
251 AUX program of EMTP Cable Constants.
252 Electromagnetic Field Program – A program can compute electric and magnetic fields in the air
253 and soil, as well as electric potentials, and the current distribution in the soil and in the
254 conductors.
255 6 UHV AC system planning
256 6.1 General
257 Generally, the planning study is proceeded by the following steps. As UHV AC system planning
258 has specific requirements, some considerations are necessary in each steps.
259 6.1.1 Transmission capacity considering their routes and line types to use
260 In the planning and design of power grid, increasing the voltage level of the transmission line
261 to UHV not only increases the transmission capacity, but also reduces the cost of the
262 transmission system and increases the corridor utilization rate of the transmission line.
263 The economic transmission distance of UHV transmission lines can reach 1 000~1 500 km or
264 even longer. The single line transmission capacity with 8 bundled wires can reach to 12 000
265 MW. In the selection of UHV transmission capacity, the economic benefits of the entire power
266 grid should be considered, rather than being limited to the economic benefits of a transmission
267 line project.
268 6.1.2 Reactive power management issues
269 In the planning of the power system, the planning of reactive power supply and reactive power
270 compensation facilities must be included. In the engineering design of UHV AC transmission,
271 the design of reactive power supply and reactive power compensation facilities should be
272 carried out.
273 Appropriate amount of reactive power supply should be planned and installed in UHV AC system
274 to meet the system voltage regulation requirements and reduce the unintended reactive power
275 transfer between different network nodes.
---------------------- Page: 11 ----------------------
oSIST prEN IEC 63042-102:2020
63042-102/Ed1/CDV IEC (E) – 10 – 122/94/CDV
276 Sufficient amount of reactive power supply with flexible adjustable capacity, as well as reserve
277 capacity of reactive power should be maintained.
278 The configuration of reactive power compensation and equipment type selection should be
279 technically and economically compared.
280 Planning and design of reactive power compensator for UHV AC system should meet the
281 overvoltage limiting requirement of UHV AC transmission systems.
282 The process of configuring reactive power compensation for UHV AC system is as follows:
283 1) Identify the range of likely active power flow across the UHV line, calculate and analyze the
284 characteristics of reactive power and voltage profiles along the UHV line, taking into account
285 of charging reactive power produced by UHV AC lines and reactive power loss under
286 different power flows. (Step 1)
287 2) Select UHV transformer tap position to avoid overvoltage under a range of operating
288 conditions taking into account UHV substation location, number of transmission lines
289 connected, and system operation mode. (Step 2)
290 3) Select capacity and location of UHV shunt reactor with consideration of limiting temporary
291 overvoltage and reducing secondary arc current, and balancing charging power of lines and
292 flexibly controlling bus voltage. (Step 3)
293 4) Identify total and unit capacity of compensator installed in tertiary side of the transformer.
294 The total capacity should be selected to reduce the reactive power exchange between
295 different voltage levels and maintain bus voltage in an admissible range; the selection of
296 single bank capacity should consider the voltage fluctuation induced by switching of single
297 group capacitor or reactor within a reasonable range. (Step 4)
298 5) Check if the dynamic reactive power reserve provided by generators is adequate within their
299 reactive power capability range. If it is adequate, then the process stops, otherwise go back
300 to Step 4. (Step 5)

304 6.1.3 Environmental issues
305 The environmental impact of power transmission project, generally includes the impact on the
306 ecological environment, electromagnetic fields, land occupation, visual landscape, and so on.
307 At present, the public's awareness of the quality of the environment in which they live has been
308 strengthened, and more and more attention are paid to the environment impact of power
309 transmission project. Related environment laws and regulations in each country should be
310 complied with.
311 During the UHV AC system planning and feasibility research, environmental issues must be
312 included. UHV AC transmission has advantages in saving the total width of transmission
313 corridor, as a result of its huge transmission capacity. However, because of its higher voltage
314 and rated current, it may cause more serious electromagnetic fields and related problems, which
315 include power frequency electric field, power frequency magnetic field, corona phenomenon,
316 radio interference, audible noise. Corresponding countermeasures should be considered during
317 the substation and transmission line design. Appropriate test and measurement should be
318 carried out to verify the effect of the countermeasure, during research and system
319 commissioning.
320 6.2 Scenario planning
321 System planning mainly include power load forecast, power source development planning and
322 power grid planning. System planning is formulated considering the load growth demand, site
323 selection of power source, and paths and networking how to connect the demand side and the
324 supply side. Then it power grid planning depends on the power development source planning.
325 Construction of power plants requires several years but its prerequisite is that the corridors and
326 required network enhancement is prepared.
327 Generally speaking, construction period of UHV transmission line may be comparatively longer
328 than those of lower voltage level and is required more restrictions for so that it is necessary to
329 determine when and how to introduce UHV AC transmission systems based on the accumulated
330 experiences and findings as well as demand forecast and then for
...
