Abstract
The introduction of the project focuses on the electrical networks in
West Bank.
The aim of this study is to analyze the current electricalnetwork in the west bank distribution companies and know the
performance of these networks. Moreover, it will help us take the next
step in proposing different scenarios to connect the different power
distribution companies and generate an integrated electrical network with
standard voltages, low power losses, high quality electrical energy, high
reliability, good voltage level, and low transmission cost.

Introduction
1.1 Project Overview
Energy is considered to be an important component in the social, industrial,
technological, economic, and sustainable development of any country. Among all
forms of energy, electrical energy is regarded as high grade energy, and it has beenthe major driver for technological and economic development.
The Palestinian economy suffers from major distortions and underdevelopment
due to the Israeli occupation, which affects the development of infrastructure. As a
result the Palestinian electricity sector suffers from several problems.
This situation prevents any possibility to generate electricity in Palestine, so
electricity sector became totally dependent on purchasing power from IEC.
The absence of a Palestinian electrical system creates many separated electrical
networks that are owned by distribution companies and municipalities. This causes
high transmission losses, high transmission costs, and unreliable systems.
This project introduction will lay out the current situation of the electricity
sector in West Bank. It includes a study of the different distribution companies in
West Bank.
The only main transmission lines constructed in the West Bank by IEC are three
main 161 kV overhead lines feeding the three main substations: in Hebron, Qalandia
(Atarot) and Salfiet (Arael).These feeders supply West Bank by 800 MVA, 571
MVA which are supplied to the distribution companies and the remaining 229 MVA
is supplied to municipalities.

The ranges of voltage of West Bank networks are 400V, 6.6 kV, 11kv, 33 kV. In
Jerusalem Distribution Electric Company (JDECO), the voltage ranges are 400V, 11
kV and 33 kV. Northern Electricity Distribution Company (NEDCO) and Southern
Electricity Company (SELCO) use 400V, 6.6 kV and 33 kV ranges, but in HebronElectric Power Company (HEPCO) the ranges of voltage are 400V, 6.6 kV, 11 kV, 33
kV. Municipalities directly step down the voltage from 33 kV to 400 kV.
These networks suffer from high transmission and distribution losses (technical
and non technical) that varies from 17-32 %.
1.2 Project Outline
In chapter two of this project introduction, electrical energy supply and demand
in West Bank is presented. Data on electrical energy consuming sectors, supply
sources, tariff structure, future plans, and problems facing electrical energy sector are

Chapter Two
Overview of Electrical Energy Situation in West Bank
2.1 Electrical Energy SourcesThe national independent power supply is still under construction and
rehabilitation. There is no electrical power generation in West Bank. 96% of
electrical energy consumed in 2009 was imported from IEC, and the remaining was
imported from Jordan [1].
The maximum capacity of West Bank is nearly 800 MVA. 70% of the supply
from Israel comes indirectly through three 161/33 kV substations; one in the south in
area C close to Hebron, a second in the north in the Ariel settlement (area C) close to
Nablus, and a third in Atarot industrial area (area C) near Jerusalem. These feeders
feed Hebron, Bethlehem, East Jerusalem, Ramallah, Jericho, Salfeet and Nablus.
30% comes directly through two 33 kV feeders from Beisan which feed both Jenin
and Tubas. And three 22 kV feeders from Ntanya feed both Tulkarm and Qalqiliya
[2]. The supply from Jordan comes through 33 kV (can withstand 132 kV) overhead
line (20MW) to supply only Jericho [3]. The remaining power is generated by
decentralized small diesel generators.

2.2 Electric Utilities in West BankThe electricity sector in Palestine is somewhat fragmented. In the West Bank
there no substantial generating capacity but there are four free standing utilities that
are responsible for electricity distribution in West Bank. These utilities are:
1. Jerusalem District Electricity Company (JDECO), established in 1928, it is thelargest distribution company in the West Bank covers approximately 25% of it. It
serves Bethlehem, East Jerusalem, Ramallah and Jericho and connected to Atarot
near Jerusalem and area C near to Hebron [3].
2. Northern Electricity Distribution Company (NEDCO), established in 2008 toserve Nablus, Tulkarem, Jenin and other northern regions of the West Bank. But
till now only Nabuls and Jenin city are under its responsibility. Connection point
is in Areil settlement, at the north of Nablus [4].
3. Southern Electricity Company (SELCO), established in 2002.It serves Dura,Yatta and Dahariah. Connection point is in area C near to Hebron [6].
4. Hebron Electric Power Co. (HEPCO),established in 2000. It serves Hebron andHalhul. Connection point is in area C near to Hebron [5].
The remaining areas of the West Bank are under municipal responsibility.
Fig. 2-2 shows the geographical area of each utility. More details about these
companies and their connection points with IEC are discussed in next chapters.

2.3 Electrical Energy Consumption
Electrical Energy consumption in West Bank is another aspect of difficult
political and economical situation. Total energy consumption in 2009 was 2366
GWh. This consumption is small compared with energy consumption in the
neighboring countries. Fig. 2-3 shows total electrical energy consumption in West
Bank and neighboring countries [8].
Fig. 2-4 shows the GWh consumption for different years in West Bank.The demand
for electricity continued toincrease at a rate of 6.4% [2].

Most recent indicators show that electricity consumption in West Bank could be
estimated at 757 kWh per capita [1]. By world's standard, it is considered very low.
As a base of comparison, a country like Jordan the annual per capita consumption is
2000 kWh, and in Egypt is approximately 1500 kWh. Estimate for Israel would
yield a per capita consumption of 7000 KWh that is nearly ten times that of West
Bank [9].
2.3.1Electrical Energy Consumption in Different SectorsTable 2-1 shows the general electrical energy consumption of main
sectors in West Bank in years 20052009 [1].

2.4 Electricity Customers in West BankThe population of West Bank is growing at a rate of 2.5% as shown in Fig. 2-7. At
midyear 2009 it was estimated about 2,448,433 [7].
The rate of population growth is a key feature of the number of electricity
customers, which is an important factor to be worry about because of the limited
electricity supply in West Bank.

2.5 Rates and Tariff Structure in West BankThe electricity price paid by consumers is somewhat high due to the political
situation and the unavailability of electrical generation in West Bank. Also Uniform
tariff does not exist in West Bank. Distribution companies control the prices but not
the PEA, so these prices vary from one company to another.
Average price for kWh paid in West Bank to IEC is 0.38 NIS, and the average
price paid by customers is 0.64 NIS\kWh.

2.6 Electrical energy problemsElectricity distribution networks, that feed all categories of consumers in the areas
of West Bank, are supplied with full requirements of electric power from IEC. Also
because of the absence of a Palestinian electrical system that includes all of these
networks every distributor contacts separately with IEC, which create a state of chaos.
This situation causes many problems like high technical losses, shortage of
supply capacities, power outages, voltage drop , and others. And there is a need for
the development of the distribution companies in West Bank which is still in progress.
The major electrical energy problems can be summarized in [1]:
1- Lack of supply capacity of electrical energy to meet present and future needs.It is a serious problem in northern West Bank especially Nablus area.
2- Electrical networks need major rehabilitation and development.3- Absence in generating capacity in West Bank.4- Energy prices are very high compared with regional and international prices.
5/28/2018 Discription of electrical energy sector in Palestine

5- High transmission and distribution losses (technical and non technical) whichare considered an important and an emergent problem.
2.7 Future Plans in West Bank
A project is in its way to be implemented to install four new 161/33 kV
transmission substations across West Bank, at a cost of EUR 44.5 million. Installing
of these substations will be accompanied by rehabilitation of all distribution networks
in all utilities in West Bank that will be supplied by these substations. This project
aims also to strengthen the newly established Northern Electric Distribution Company
(NEDCO).
In the long term, the Government intends to draw no more than 50% of energy
from any one source, and will meet this goal by increasing regional collaboration and
improving domestic production and storage capacity.
Two new power plants in West Bank will be constructed, which are:
Jayyus Power Plant in the north, near Qalqiliya. Turqumia Power Plant in the south, west of Hebron.
These projects will assist in the establishment of a new transmission company,
Palestine Energy Transmission Company Ltd. (PETL), which would eventually own,
operate and develop the transmission network, also facilitates the project of
connecting Palestinian network with the Jordanian network in the future. This
alternative which is considered seriously , especially as we know that in October
2008, Palestine became a full member of the 7 countries interconnection project and
became the country number eight; countries are Jordan, Egypt, Syria, Lebanon, Iraq,
Libya, Turkey and Palestine. This membership will allow Palestine to be connected tothe grid of these countries at a large scale [1].

Chapter Three
Nabuls Distribution System
NEDCO is a distribution company in the north of West Bank which entirely
depends on purchasing electricity from IEC on 33 kV level. It was established to
serve all the northern provinces, but till now it serves Nablus province and Jenin city
only.
NEDCO purchases 275.8 GWh form IEC. 228.249 GWh was consumed by
54339 consumers with 90% load factor(1).The percentage of losses is about 17% [4].
3.1 Nablus District
3.1.1 Feeders
Nablus is supplied by 64MVA from the following four 33 kV feeders [4]:
1. Odala : With a rated capacity of 13MVA.2. Askar : With a rated capacity of 23MVA.3. Qussen: With a rated capacity of 20MVA.4. Enab : With a rated capacity of 8MVA.
NEDCO is in progressing to increase the capacity to 91MVA by increasing the
capacity of Odala to 20 MVA and replacing Qussen feeder by Jeet feeder with a
capacity of 40MVA. Fig. 3-1 shows these main feeders, and the future main feeders
are shown in Fig. 3-2.
(1)Load factor: the average power divided by the peak power over a period of time [10].

These substations are connected together with 33 kV lines in order to increase
reliability of the system. Fig. 3-3 shows the substation and there connection points.
6.6 kV feeders are reduced to 0.4 kV level by step down transformers (Dy11)
rated at 160kVA, 250kVA, 400kVA, 630kVAand 1000kVA, 1500kVA
Some loads are not fed from these substations. They fed directly from 33 kV
feeders through step down transformers (Dy11, 33/0.4 kV) with different rated
values (160kVA, 250 kVA, 400 kVA, 630 kVA, 1000 kVA, 1500 kVA
The 6.6 kV feeder, which comes out of the 10MVA transformer, is branched to
a number of 6.6 kV feeders by connecting it to a bus bar. Table 3-2 shows the
feeders that come out from each substation and their capacities

3.2.1 Data Collection
1. Transmission line parameters (R, X, C) as shown in Table 3-4
(Table 3-4) Parameters of the transmission line
The capacitance of the transmission line is calculated from the following
equation [13]:
C=
F/ km (3.1)
GMD= 75.59 cm, r =0.55cm (for ACSR 95mm2).
C=11.3 nF/ km, which is very small, so it is neglected.
2. Transformer parameters (R, X)
The resistance and reactance of the transformer are not available in the
nameplate. Depending on the percentage impedance (%Z) definition and short
circuit test we calculated R and X values.
A transformer's percentage impedance is evaluated by a simple test. The
secondary terminals are short-circuited. A low voltage is then applied to the primary
terminals, and increased until the current measured in the short-circuited secondaryreaches the rated ampere value. The impedance is then the ratio of that primary
voltage to the rated voltage. Fig. 3-9 shows measuring impedance method [11].

There are two electric utilities that supply Hebron with electricity which will be
discussed in the following sections.
4.1 Hebron Electric Power Company (HEPCO)HEPCO was established in 2000. It has started its services in 2005. HEPCO
covers 92 square kilometers and provides electricity to about 34,000 electric
customers throughout Hebron and in Halhul [5].
HEPCO purchases 308.419 GWh form IEC. 241.889 GWh was consumed with
70% load factor and the percentage of losses is about 20%. Fig. 4-1 shows the daily
load curve of HEPCO [5].

The 33 kV feeders are reduced to 6.6 kV level by step down transformers (Dy11)
rated at 10MVA in the main substation, and then 6.6 kV feeders are reduced to 0.4 kV
level by step down transformers (Dy11) rated at 160 kVA, 250 kVA, 400 kVA, 630
kVA and 1000 kVA.
Some loads are fed directly from 33\0.4kV transformers rated at 160 kVA, 250
kVA, 400kVA, 630kVA, 1000 kVA.

Electric power is transmitted by overhead transmission lines (ACSR, ABC) or by
underground cables (XLPE).
4.2 Southern Electricity Company (SELCO)SELCO was established in 2002.It serves Dura, Yatta, Dahariah,and some
villages in south of Hebron [6].
SELCO purchases 96.44 GWh form IEC, 69.62 MWh were consumed by 18000
customers with 80% load factor and the percentage of losses is about 28%.
In SELCO, there are no substations. The voltage is reduced directly from 33 kV
to 0.4 kV using different transformers rated at 160 kVA, 250 kVA, 400kVA, 630
kVA, 1000kVA.
SELCO is supplied by 13.3 MVA from IEC; this capacity is distributed as shown
in Fig. 4-3. Table 4-2 shows the served areas and their capacities [6].

4. The losses in the system was 0.06MW (3.5%) and 0.03 Mvar (5%).
From our analysis for Wadi Altufah substation and Alkas substation it was
noticed that the percentage of losses is decreased in Alkas because of using 11 kV
transmission lines, and also the drop voltage is decreased and the power factor at the
load buses is almost the same as in the main substation.

Conclusion & Future work
There is no generation in West Bank; electricity sector depends on the electrical
power generated by IEC, which refuses most Palestinian requests to increase the
supplied capacity. As a result West Bank cannot guarantee electrical energy supply
for ever, so Israel has another way to practice pressure on Palestinians.
The present grid suffers from fragmentation, high losses, low reliability, high
energy prices, low maintenance, and disability to handle the future demand.
Producing our own electricity seems to be very difficult. So, it is now very
important for distribution companies to find their way to save the available electrical
energy and seek what new technologies are useful and how to improve old
technologies to efficient and helpful in electrical energy saving.
For future, we will propose different scenarios for connecting the different power
distribution companies to generate an integrated electrical network with standard
voltages, low power losses, high quality electrical energy, high reliability, good
voltage level, and low transmission cost. This well integrated network allows for
future connection to the seven Arab country grid , and eventually supplies end users
with low cost electrical energy.
