Transmission and distribution losses      Transmission energy losses are determined by performing transmission load-flow simulations using the PSS/E model. Distribution energy losses are calculated via the simplified calculation of loss equations model developed by the Electric Power Research Institute. Transmission losses are approximately 2.3 percent, and distribution losses are approximately 6.0 percent.
