Abstract

The research main objective was to investigate the imbalance in the system due to increasing load demand surpassing supply. The research result is as follows; Table 4.1 shows that the south-south zone consist of total plant installed capacity of 5,879MW, total available capacity of 3,234MW and total grid load of 1,786.92MW. Table 4.2 shows that the south-east zone consist of total plant installed capacity of 504.4MW, total available capacity of 240MW and total grid load of 113.8MW. Table 4.3 shows that the south-west zone consist of total plant installed capacity of 2,724MW, total available capacity of 1,894MW and total grid load of 708.1MW. Table 4.4 shows that the north-west zone consist off total plant installed capacity of 1,938.4MW, total available capacity of 1,332MW and total grid load of 957MW. Table 4.5 shows that the north-central zone consist of; total plant installed capacity of 858MW, total available capacity of 858MW and total grid load of 414MW. Table 4.6 shows that the north-east zone consist of total plant installed capacity of 0MW, total available capacity of 0MW and total grid load of 0MW
