Effects of 500 kV EHV Transmission Lines on Location Determination and Capacity of Shunt Reactor in South Sulawesi Systems

Abstract

Abstract Electricity in South Sulawesi system is so extensive that it is necessary to construct a 500 kV Extra High Voltage (EHV) to avoid instability and waste of electricity during the distribution of electricity. need. Therefore, this paper describes the implementation of research on optimizing the electrical energy network system from renewable energy power plants in the form of the application of extra high voltage transmission. This research was carried out as an effort to implement a 500 kV extra high voltage transmission in South Sulawesi. The length of the 500 kV EHV to be installed includes an extra-long transmission, which is 365 kms which will produce more voltage on the network during light loads. So, it is necessary to make efforts to improve the electrical system to meet applicable standards, including the addition of the shunt reactor. The purpose of this study is to obtain conclusions about the effect of the shunt reactor on the South Sulawesi transmission system after the 500 kV EHV is applied. The research that has been carried out aims to obtain the optimal location and capacity of a shunt reactor. The results of this study will be very useful for electricity stakeholders, especially transmission companies in South Sulawesi.
