N2  - The method of calculating generation reliability indices had  been developed for over three decades; however, the accuracy of  its estimation is still doubtful. This study used the historical  record of Taiwan Power Company as a data base to estimate the  generation reliability indices as if we did not know the records  and then use the result to compared with the actual records in  order to evaluate the generation reliability indices method . A  computer program with eight sub routines was developed in this  thesis study according to the developed theorem and a new load  shape approximation method.  Monthly load duration curves for each year were estimated  and transferred into weekly load duration curves. After this,  forced outage rate s of units were convolved with the approximated  load duration curve to yield an equivalent load curve of  customer' s demand by weekly intervals. Hydro energy were then  shaved from the equivalent load duration curve according to two  policies, namely economic water policy and defensive water  policy, c hose n by the cases. At last, generation reliability  indices Hourly Loss Of Load Expectation & Expected Energy Not  Served) were calculated after hydro output was considered.  Eight cases of different assumptions were calculated in the  study a nd compared with the actual records. It shows that this  method have better estimations when the reserved margin of the  system is higher than 1 5%. Therefore , it is still a useful tool  for the planning of future power expansion program
