The objective of this paper is to assess the impact of interconnecting Oman and United Arab Emirates (UAE) through the existing 220kV, 46.7km double circuit transmission line rated 762MVA for each circuit. A model is developed to represent both systems of Oman and UAE based on the EUROSTAG© software. Load flow and contingency studies are presented to evaluate the compliance of the interconnected system for security criteria N and N-1. Calculations are applied to two operating conditions (peak and minimum load) and for three energy exchange cases: no exchange and maximum exchanges in both directions. Short circuit studies are presented …
