Thereafter, the main driving forces prompting full integration of the power systems will be discussed. These refer mainly to different load patterns in the various countries (see shifted weekly cycle in some Arab countries), imbalance in generation availability and the introduction of market rules that are going to eliminate custom barriers for energy trading. From the technical point of view, the closure of the MedRing sets challenging problems that shall be investigated and suitably solved before starting the system operation. These are essentially related to the capability of reacting to small and large disturbances keeping the system stability. To this end, the paper will highlight the potentially critical dynamic phenomena that might occur and the most appropriate counter-measures to be undertaken. As will be shown, due to the very stretched structure undertaken. As will be shown, due to the very stretched structure of the grid in the South-Eastern area, even a single contingency of kilometres away from the disturbance's location. Other phenomena of concern are related to steady-state stability. As a matter of fact, interconnecting systems by adding HVAC tie-lines creates new natural oscillation modes that, if not properly damped, can cause instability even in highly meshed systems such as the European one. Some of the results presented in the paper have been obtained by the \"MedRing Feasibility Project\", a study project completed in June 2003, supported by the European Commission and with the objective of defining a framework for coherent development of interconnections between the power systems of the Mediterranean Basin. Finally, the perspectives for a further extension of interconnections towards South, the Gulf Countries and North- East of the MedRing will be presented.","PeriodicalId":236779,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Power Engineering Society General Meeting, 2004.","volume":"89 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2004-06-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124608586","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In many developed countries, such as the USA, where power companies are mostly investor-owned private enterprises, the changes are brought about in a large part because the generators of the independent power producers, originally introduced for environmental and conservation reasons in 1070's, that use newer technologies, can compete favorably with the generation from the traditional power companies. As a matter of fact, the guaranteed rate-of-return regulation has resulted on oversupply of generation in many developed countries. The developing countries in Asia, such as China, on the other hand, with their rapid economic development, face totally different pressures. Economic growth has driven up even higher growth in electricity. These countries are hard pressed to come up with the necessary capital to build the huge demand of additional generators. As a result, countries are changing the laws and rules to encourage private investment in electric generation. Private generators are then demanding open markets for fair competition and potential expansion of capacity in all three sectors, i.e. generation, higher return. The promise of the competitive market is a more efficient and responsive industry. The electric power industry is an established industry. Its investment, especially in generation, is relatively high and takes a long period of commitment. Electricity plays a tremendously important and indispensable role in the modern society: in individual's daily life and society's economic well-being. Policy makers are straddled with the difficult issue of balancing the adequacy and cost of power supply. Different rules and processes have been devised for generation planning and investment as part of the experiment in restructuring. There is no clear winner of an ideal or optimal solution. In this paper, after a brief introduction of the power industry and the current status of restructuring in China, we first discuss the process for generation planning and investment in the well as in China and then compare the impact of such different approaches in terms of the goals of deregulation, i.e., efficiency incentive, economic signaling and risk distribution","PeriodicalId":236779,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Power Engineering Society General Meeting, 2004.","volume":"21 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2004-06-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124977934","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
