This paper presents a practical and general method based on discrete convolution techniques for evaluating the expectation and variance of the loss of load indices, for a single-area system, by treating forced outage rates and forecast peak loads as random variables with specified means and variances. The proposed method easily accounts for partial forced outage rates associated with unit derated states, without any restrictions. The proposed algorithm is applied to typical generating systems including the IEEE Reliability TEst System, and the Brazilian South/Southeast System planned for 1991.
