<![CDATA[Available transfer capability (ATC) is an indication of the capability of the transmission system to efficiently increase power transmission for further commercial trading between two areas or two points. ATC plays an important role in operating power systems economically, reliably, and securely. As the deregulation in the power system can cause overload in the transmission system, ATC evaluation and enhancement are required for secure and reliable operation. The advancements in power generation techniques and switching from centralized generation to distributed generation (DG) with more emphasis on renewable sources have resulted in various approaches to enhance ATC. In this work, a computationally efficient sensitivity-based methodology for evaluating and improving ATC with the presence of renewable generation is proposed. The developed approach is implemented on the IEEE 30 bus system and the outcome is compared with the existing methods in the literature.]]>
