Power Flow Tracing | Analyzing the Embedding of Eleks Dakar in Research and Practice
Power Flow Tracing (PFT) is a collective term for a set of methods that allow the calculation of the power transfers from individual generators to individual loads and branches. Originally established to allocate costs for transmission losses, PFT recently gained a lot of attraction from research and practice for further use cases, such as emissions allocation. Our comparative analysis aims to provide a general understanding of the strengths and limitations of PFT in general and to give an overview of individual methods, with a particular focus on Eleks Dakar PFT.
