However, there are no test systems currently available with enough information in order to endorse studies that simultaneously approach expansion planning, operation, and reliability issues. This paper introduces a real test system, including the load modeling, and generation and transmission systems. The main objective is to provide all the details and information required to evaluate methods and models developed for power system planning, operation, and reliability. The presented load modeling includes hourly, daily, weekly, monthly, and seasonal patterns. Furthermore, besides the substation data, reliability details, construction costs, and characteristics of right of ways (e.g., line length, impedance, and ratings) for the transmission system are exposed. The real transmission system presented contains 39 buses, 135 transformers, and 66 lines at two voltage levels: 230 and 400 kV. Finally, the generation system reliability data as well as operation and installation costs for each unit are also provided.192-208engNetwork reliabilityPower system operationPower system planningReal test systemArtigo10.1007/s40313-017-0361-8WOS:000426289500006Acesso abertoWOS000426289500006.pdf
