Transmission grid expansion constraints in Uganda : going beyond the standard solution
This dissertation proposes the use of different transmission technology options as demonstrated elsewhere and quality decision making to minimize constraints faced by transmission grid expansion. In contrast to traditional planning that assesses alternative planning solutions by finding a solution …
