Component Analysis and Calculation for Social Benefits of UHV Assessment

With the rapid development of the UHV power grid, evaluation of the economic and social benefits of the UHV power grid is conducive to guiding the planning and construction of UHV power grid. At present economic benefit evaluation system of the UHV power grid is driving to maturity stage on the whole at home and abroad, but it invariably tends to regard social benefits as part of economic benefits, without evaluating social benefit separately. The social benefit evaluation model of UHV power grid is built in case of sufficient investigation. The differentials between social benefit and social cost are calculated respectively by three kinds of solutions according to the constructed social cost evaluation index system and social benefits evaluation index system, conclusion that UHV power grid transmission has better social benefits can be reached by contrastively analyzing the social three kinds of solutions corresponding to benefits. At last, the evaluation model and method are verified and analyzed through the analysis of engineering projects.


Introduction
With the rapid development of UHV power grid, the analysis of the operational factors [1] and the economical assessment of UHV power grid are crucial in planning and constructing the UHV power grid.Currently, the main method for economical assessment is based on the discounted cash flow.The assessment is done by the Net Present Value (NPV) while the relevant economic indicators are obtained by the Internal Rate of Return (IRR) as well as the payback period method, and the benefits and costs are compared in Ref [2] [3].The Ref [4] utilizes the optimal power flow calculation method to evaluate economic during the whole life cycle.In the Ref [5], the UHV transmission model is built and the economic analysis is done.At present, the economic evaluation system is almost mature.However, either the current economic evaluation methods cover the economic benefits assessment and the social benefits assessment at the same time, or some social indicators and contents are part of indirect economic benefit, So the traditional methods have some obvious shortcomings: First, social benefits and influence cannot be completely measured because of the lack of related social benefits; Second, it is difficult to distinguishing the cost and the benefit, causing the inaccurate assessments; Third, considering some specific social benefits of UHV, evaluation indicators are not completely suitable for economic evaluation; Fourth, to develop the environmentally friendly society and promote the sustainable development, stricter requirements for controlling urban smog and PM2.5 have been put forward, thus simple economic evaluation cannot meet the demand.Therefore, reasonable social benefits evaluation system should be built for current UHV and provide scientific basis for the project feasibility studies.
It can be concluded that direct and indirect social benefit evaluation models should be established under the engineering practice of UHV.In this paper, social benefits and social costs evaluation indicators systems are built first.And then, under the situation of transferring the same amount of electricity energy, 3 cases are applied, namely the UHV, the 500 kv transmission and the 500 kv transmission with coal (the coal will be converted to electricity after transported to load centers).After that the direct social benefit of the 3 cases is calculated from the cost and benefit, the indirect social benefit is of the 3 cases obtained by the comparison and analysis, finally, the evaluation model and method are verified and analyzed respectively in the analysis of engineering projects.
The rest of this paper is organized as follows: In Section 2, social benefits evaluation model is built.Section 3 introduces social income evaluation index system.In Section 4, the social cost evaluation index system is introduced.And the assessment model and method is examined In Section 5.

Social Benefits Evaluation Model
The social benefits (SBs) assessment of UHV is different from others when taking the practical engineering of the UHV and the distinguished characteristics of the UHV into consideration.The social benefits (SE) of the UHV are evaluated thoroughly in this paper.To begin with, the direct social benefits are compared between the three possible transmission ways of the UHV from the vertical perspective regarding the social incomes and social costs.Moreover, the indirect social benefits are assessed thorough comparative analysis of the direct social benefits from horizontal angle.The vertical and horizontal methods are working in a complementary manner, among which the vertical assessment is supposed to emphasizing on the specificities of the social benefit assessment, while the horizontal assessment is capable of demonstrating the increment part is consistent with the principles of economics.
Combined with engineering practical of UHV, the social costs (SCs) are evaluated from longitudinal and horizontal two aspects, direct social costs (DSCs) index system is divided into four segments namely the environment cost (ENC), energy cost (EC), land cost (LC) and human resources cost (HRC), ENC includes carbon emission costs (CECs), carbon trading costs (CTCs) and emissions abatement costs (EACs), EC includes freshwater resources consumption costs (FRCCs) and generation resources costs (GRCs), LC includes Taki area of compensation costs (TACCs) and plant land acquisition costs (TACCs), HRC includes development and transmission of human resources costs (DTHRCs) and transmission line maintenance costs of human resources (TLMCHRs); Indirect social costs (ISCs) index system includes audible noise reduction cost (ANRC) and social power outages loss cost (SPOLC); At last, social income (SI) assessment index system consists of create industrial benefits (CIBs) and create employment benefits (CEBs).Social costs and social benefits evaluation index system of UHV are illustrated in Figure 1.

Indirect Social Cost Assessment Index System
According to some international researchers, residents living along the route is impacted by audible noise, no complaint when audible noise less than 52.5 dB (A), there is a small amount of complaints when audible noise exist between 52.5 dB (A) and 59 dB (A), there is large number of complaints when audible noise higher than 59 dB (A) in [9].Therefore, transmission line need noise reduction when the transmission line noise higher than 52.5dBA.Related solve method is formulated through calculation and analysis power line audible noise.Audible noise on the transmission line is extensive researched at home and abroad, Ref [10] where g is the maximum potential gradient averages, n is the number of bundled conductors, d is split wire diameter, D is distance from observation point to the corona point.In order to reduce transmission lines audible noise, usually by increasing the diameter of the wire split, the number of bundled conductors, the division split conductor spacing and the average height of the wires on the ground, but the increase in tower height costs too much often rarely used.Thereby lower 1 dB (A) expenses as in Equation ( 16) can be obtained. ( e is increased wire diameter, number and fee split pitch. 1 ε , 2 ε is cost per length before and after transmission line being transformed, 1 n , 2 n is the number of bundled conductors before and after transmission line being transformed.So ANRCs can be got, as in Equation ( 17).

Social Cost Assessment
It is known that the line loss rate of 1000 kV and 500 kV were 0.277% and 0.7%, the electric field intensity of transmission lines were 7.171 kV/m and 1.457 kV/m, the tower height is respectively 25 m and 14 m in the residential zone, distance between sub conductors is respectively 400 mm and 375 mm, transmission corridor distance is respectively 20 m and 13 m, integrated circuit fault trip rate is respectively 0.15 bout/(100 km/a) and 0.2 bout/(100 km/a), coal consumption is need 310 g per produce 1 kwh energy, 500 kV of 1000 kV is 4.5 times and above in the transmission line transmission capacity aspect, this paper take 4.5 times, according to the American institute for statistics global insight that 100 to 116 people are need per produce 10 kwh, this paper take 116.Suppose coal is transported from A to C, road transport line is 40 km, railway transport line is 600 km, and combine with China's actual, 60% of coal volume is transported by rail transport, 40% of coal volume is transported by road transport, per fresh water cost is calculated 1.5 RMB/cubic meter.Direct cost can be got when transport same power as shown in Table 2.  Case two needs noise reduction to avoid being complained because its audible noise over 52.5 dB (A), the minimum noise reduction costs is 2.05 million RMB through comparative analysis several options; And suppose power is recovered need 1 hour per power cut, based on historical data and load center actual situation, fuzzy theory is used to assess the similarity between load center and historical blackout area, social power cut loss cost can be got, this paper take similarity is 0.4.Indirect costs as shown in Table 3.
A conclusion can be got from Table 3, ANRCs can be reduced effectively through option one and three, and SCLP is lower compare option three to one.Therefore, the option three has the lowest ISCs and best indirect social benefits.
