Purpose of the Study Project Tasks

1. To improve Design criteria keeping in mind latest international and regional standards and available local and regional electricity consumption data;
2. To provide new power allocation based on revised Design Criteria;
3. To create network model in appropriate software (PSS Sincal is selected due to its capability and also it is Kahramaa (Qatar General Electricity & Water Corporation) software tool for distribution network analysis and planning) and new loads which provides: analysis of network operation under modified circumstances, its redesign and future what-if analysis for any future changed circumstances;
4. To redesign network corresponding to CP05A and CP06A plots where the biggest power allocation is expected due to Design Criteria revision.
