On reliability and quality of functioning of power grids (as exemplified by the branch of PJSC Rossetti Volga – Samara Distribution Networks)

The analysis of the electric energy transmission through the distribution electric networks of the branch of PJSC Rosseti Volga — Samara Distribution Networks over the period of 2018 – 2022 was carried out. The structure of the company is considered, the characteristics of the main elements of the power grids under study are given, the balance of the electric energy transmission in and out of the company's networks is estimated. Based on the information published in public media on the accident rate in the company's power grids, assessment was made of the number of emergency situations that occurred over the period under study, assessment of the duration of interruptions in power supply to consumers, as well as the amount of undersupplied electric energy caused by these interruptions. The influence of the seasonal component on the number of emergencies during the period under study is considered. Based on the 2022 data, the analysis of the main causes of damage to components of power grids and the classification of failures are presented, their main characteristics over the period in question are considered. The percentage ratio of the number of failures for the most characteristic reasons to the total number of shutdowns over the period under study was established, and the classification of the number of emergency shutdowns according to the degree of undersupply of electrical energy was made. General scientific methods, numerical methods of analysis, methods of the electrical circuit theory were used in the study. To visualize the results of the analysis, the technologies of the MATLAB graphics editor were used. The results obtained may be of interest to the heads of power grid companies, as well as researchers and engineers engaged in research in the field of power supply reliability.
