This paper describes the principles and the implementation of a methodology to evaluate the transmission network capacity use for firm transmission services including wheeling transactions. In this methodology transmission network capacity use for a transaction is a function of the magnitude of electric power, the length of the transmission lines and the type of facilities involved in the transaction. This capacity value provides an equitable means of allocating the cost of transmission facilities among users of the firm transmission service.
