Abstract

Power systems encounter multiple problems during
planning, operating and analyzing processes. Superconducting technologies can
be the solution for some of these problems. In this study usage of
superconducting cables in the Turkey transmission system are simulated to see
the affects. One base and two different cases are discussed. Power flow
analysis and voltage stability analysis are done for the real Turkish 22 bus
system. The voltage stability is analyzed by using the loading factor. The
results show the decrease in losses and the increase of the system’s capacity.
The amount of CO₂ emission is also presented. This study is a rough
analyze but a precursor for further studies which will also contain an
economical analyze considering the cooling costs and new topology of system.

Keywords
