Abstract

Electric power system reliability is a very important aspect for both producers and consumers. For the former it is important to design an optimally reliable system while for the latter it is important for the economic use of electricity for production and services. Combining the two sides one sets the importance indicator for determining optimum reliability level is the cost of outage to consumers. The authors in this paper present an estimation for the cost of outage using three methodologies. The overall average cost of outage is estimated at JD 0.63/kwh (U.S.S I/kwh) while the specific outage costs are: JD 0.28/kwh, JD 0.32/kwh and JD 1.4/kwh for domestic, industrial and commercial consumers respectively.
