Arun, I don’t think there is a “load losses” function in MATPOWER that returns how much load is lost akin to a LOLE calculation. If you want to calculate loss of load for reliability or restoration calculations, then you can run an optimal power flow with dispatchable loads. (set very high price coefficients for the loads so that they are not curtailed unless there is a system need). Read section 6.4.2 of the MATPOWER manual. http://www.pserc.cornell.edu/matpower/manual.pdf

Is there an equivalent method to compute “load losses” that represents in understandable units (e.g. total MW), the consequence of loss of one or more transformers? This unit would be convenient to measure how much load capacity is at loss and how gradual recovery of transformers brings back the entire system to original working state after a few days. Thanks
