Estimation method for dynamic line rating potential and economic benefits ?
Determining the economic benefits of employing dynamic line ratings is difficult. A method was developed to assess the benefits of DLR on congested cross-borders. DLR potential was estimated by using conservative ampacity calculation assumptions. DLR would increase cross-border transmission capacity and impact area prices. The decreased electricity prices due to DLR benefit the electricity consumers.
