at Louth and two 110 kV connect ions at Let terkenny in Co. Donegal and Corrac lassy in Co.

The 400 kV and 220 kV networks form the backbone of t h e gr i d . They h av e h i gh er c ap a c i t y

east . Th e 220 kV network compr ises a number of s ing le c i rcu i t loops around the country .
Typical ly la rge generat ion s tat ions (g reater than 100 MW) are connected to the 220 kV or

P1 Athlone-Shannonbridge 110 kV line
Overload can occur for an outage of the Lough Ree Power generation station, Cashla-Prospect 220 kV line or Cashla-Flagford 220 kV line.
Capital projects CP261 and CP552 relieve these constraints.
P2
Carrickmines T2101 Overload can occur on either Carrickmines 220/110 kV transformer for an outage of the other. A trip-maintenance outage of both transformers can lead to voltage instability.
Capital projects CP483 and CP513 relieve these constraints.
Carrickmines T2102
Voltage Instability
P3 Cashla T2104
Due to a limitation of ancillary equipment, an overload can occur for a trip-maintenance outage of both of the other Cashla 220/110 kV transformers.
Capital project CP322 relieves this constraint.

G.1 INCREMENTAL TRANSFER CAPABILITY STUDIES FOR DEMAND

Trans f er l imi t an alys i s was used i n th i s Tr ansmiss ion Forecast Stat ement (TFS) to determine
the Incrementa l T ransf er Capabi l i ty ( ITC) o f th e gr id at a number o f locat ions on the gr id .
The ITC ca lcu lat ed is a measure of the t ransf er c a p a bi l i t y r em a i n i ng i n t h e ph y si c al g r i d for
f u r th er c o mme r ci a l a ct iv i t y ov e r and a b o v e a l r ea d y a n t i c i p at e d u s es. I t pr o v i d es a n
indicat ion o f the f lex ibi l i ty o f th e gr id to accommodate future demand incr eases in selected
