POWER SECTOR 2.1. General Sector Overview Nigeria is considered as one of the energy rich country in the world. Nigeria is rated among the top Oil Producer in Africa, second in natural gas reserve (with an estimate of 176trillion cubic feet) and estimated 2 billion metric tons of coal. Nigeria is also rich in water, wind and sun energy from which appreciable electricity can be generated. With the abundance of energy resources, Nigeria need not import energy to achieve a sustainable generating capacity
common computational procedures used in power system analysis. The load flow problem can be defined as: Given the load power consumption at all buses of a known electric power system configuration and the power generation at each generator, find the power flow in each line and transformer of the interconnecting network and the voltage magnitude and phase angle at each bus. Analysing the solution of this problem for numerous conditions helps to ensure that the power system is designed to satisfy its performance
A electric grid works as a power distribution system and carries electric powers through different power lines. Since grid cannot store any power anyplace within the system. We got several customers consuming megawatts of power at any moment. At that very same moment, we have got dozens of power plants manufacturing precisely the correct amount of power to satisfy all of that demand. And you've got all the transmission and distribution lines sending the power from the power plants to the customers
transformers. I want to return to academic study and undertake postgraduate course Master of Engineering Electrical (Power) at University of South Australia. I am greatly inspired to accomplish my aspiration to become a professional in the field of Power and Energy Systems. Beside aspiration the other reason I am choosing electrical power is of job perspective that the jobs related to electrical power are almost in every industry from smaller to a multinational. In under-graduation program I learned THEORY
I am an ambitious young Saudi with a Bachelor’s degree in Power Systems and Electric from the College of Technology in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Through my academic and professional experiences, I have come to believe that only with hard work and determination can one realize his ambitions and dreams, and that failure to do so is only due to a loss of stamina or motivation. For me, my dream is to join (name of university) to attend the Electrical Engineering program, for it is my belief that by attending
Electric Lineman The importance of an electrical lineman is huge, not only in the community but also in most of the world. Their education, training, and correct use of equipment help them in their different and dangerous work conditions to accomplish the tasks of providing power to their communities. To be a lineman one would first have to go through the apprenticeship program. The apprenticeship program involves approximately 7,000 hours of training over a four-year period and includes both classroom
as 'Lecture on Physics by Feynman’ and 'Fundamentals of Physics' by Resnick & Halliday. My interest in the study of electromagnetism, and power gradually peaked after I read the about the work done by eminent scientists in these fields. It was then I decided to pursue Electrical engineering since it comprised of subjects that catered to my interests like power and electromagnetism. My undergraduate studies got me interested in the application of mathematics in engineering and I topped the subject
the title of professional engineer. You must have a bachelors degree in order to be certified. Some industries that electrical engineers can work in include: Scientific research and development firms, Electrical component manufacturing companies, power generation, distribution, transmission, and architecture Electrical Engeneers can work in many different engineering sectors. These include but not limited to Aerospace Engineering, Construction,
“Miller and Malinowski” states that a Power Dispatcher major accountability is to operate the power system in an effective manner (151). “O*net Online” claims that a job as a Power Dispatcher involves the monitoring and operating of field and station equipment on a distribution and transmission level of the power grid. Therefore, the profile of a Power Dispatcher is mainly technical and psychological. According to “the Encyclopedia Careers and Guidance,” practical experience in a field position
I took up subjects like Analog Integrated Circuit, Power Electronics, Electric Drives and Circuits, Operations Research, Power System Analysis, Power System Switchgear and Micro-controller and its applications. In addition, I have also worked on mini-projects like “Alcohol Breath Analyser using Arduino Microcontroller” and “Intelligent Trash can using

In this section, The basics of electromagnetic transients, HV Capacitors banks and their relations and functions in the power system are presented. Electromagnetic Transients (EMT) Electromagnetic transient (EMT) phenomena occurs in the power system when the network changes from one steady state into another which creates a disturbance in the power system that involve destructive high magnitudes of current and voltage or even both, as per (ANSI std. 1100-1992) the EMT is defined as “a sub-cycle
with interlinked small or medium dimension generators, energy storage elements as well as power electronic technologies have been germinated to find the key limitations of the conventional grid structure. Microgrids are major ingredients of these promising grid configurations. Even though microgrids are received as feasible solutions to power stability and quality topics in ac power systems, the ambiguity in the capacity of microgrids are to deal with serious changeable
Stress Cone The stress cone is shown in Figure 3-6 Stress cone, which has a shape of a cone, is the traditional technique to control the stress at the electrical termination of cables. It brings the stress to a subtle stop. To eliminate fires or electric surges by the high concentration of flux between the conductor cable and shield termination, stress cone must be install properly on middle to high voltage (46kV or up) systems. For this particular experiment stress cone is being made of a silicone
as a threat in power system since 1920. In the earlier stage the problems were concerned with the far away situated generating unit supplying the load centers with long overhead transmission lines. The importance of this phenomenon was increased due to lots of blackouts. The industries were the most concerning with these kind of problem because interruption in the supply leads them into losses. It was one of the most dangerous problems on the system. As continue progress of the power system begins
voltages at all buses in the power system after being exposed by any disturbance from a given initial operating conditions. Voltage stability purely depends on the capability to maintain equilibrium between load supply and load demand from the consumer end. When there will be any progressive fall or rise of voltages of some buses that can cause instability. Power system stability is expressed by the capability of a power system to restore steady voltages at all buses in the power system under normal operating
