Course Overview:

Power system planning is an activity related to the development of plans for designing and construction
of the system and its elements, which will satisfy assumed future needs, starting from the given state. First
paper presents basic principles of power system development planning with its concepts. Electrical energy
losses as well as forecasting of energy consumption are taken into consideration. Basic principles of
development planning for each subsystem (generation, transmission and distribution) are presented.
