Network expansion studies normally offer new power lines, new substations or expansion of existing substations. They are generally proposed based on technical requirements, but financial restrictions are not considered. Because of financial restrictions, ranking of network expansion plans is required. In this paper an algorithm for such ranking, based on technical and financial view points and proposes suitable parameters. This algorithm may be used to compliment static or dynamic expansion planning studies of electric power networks.
