The aim of planning and the main task of electric power system is to ensure the supply of high quality electricity to consumers with the key to maintain a balance between production and consumption. The deregulation of the EES, the introduction of the market and the increasing investment in alternative sources of energy using solar or wind energy for primary fuels have led to the need to upgrade classic EES planning using new approaches. This master's thesis touches the initial steps of the transmission system planning process, which follows the guidelines of the Association of Transmission System Operators of Europe (ENTSO-E), which is gradually introducing new approaches in an attempt to improve the quality of planning by adhering to probabilistic methods. We have developed a software tool that enables the automated production of Europe model, where we can simulate the behaviour of the electricity market. The algorithm was created in the MATLAB software environment and enables the creation of a simulation network for the ANTARES software package. The quality of the algorithm and the simulation model were verified by performing the simulations and comparing the results to the current state. The program is designed to be fully customizable and can be upgraded to meet ELES' new needs.
