Transmission and Generation Planning Branch
Generation Planning
The main function of the generation planning division is to prepare the Long Term Generation
Expansion Plan (LTGEP). Demand forecasting is done for four sectors. They are ,
 1.Domestic
 2.Industrial
 3. Commercial
 4. Other

Transmission Planning

 Main objectives are find out the transmission developments and future Tx network.
 To ensure reliable and stable power system and determine the investment requirement for the
transmission development within the planning horizon

 PSS/E software is used to load flow analysis.
