Abstract
:
The effects of electric service interruptions resulting from severepower outages were investigated and analyzed. Two approaches have been developed and used. One is based on customers survey that mainly investigates the preparatory actions that a consumer may take to reduce the effects of outages. The other one is based on a mathematical model that focuses on the value of foregone leisure and ceased activities should outages occur in specific periods. The residential consumer in the city of Riyadh has been selected as a practical case to conduct this study. It has been found that this sector - which constitutes about 700/0 of the Saudi Consolidated Electric Company in the central region (SCECO-c) energy consumers - will suffer tangible and intangible losses should outages occur, particularly in summer time, and last for longer durations. This paper provides new information and data that can be used in a broad range of cost-benefit analyses in power system planning, design and operation.
