No

r Please clearly mark any attachments as ‘Attachment to Section E’ and number the pages consecutively.

17 Generating units on remote AGC will receive AGC set-points via SCADA every control cycle (e.g. 4 seconds) and must respond to AGC set-points whenever enabled for Regulation FCAS. When a unit is enabled for both regulation and contingency FCAS, contingency FCAS takes priority over AGC set-points if a contingency event occurs until frequency has recovered. Refer to Section 6.9 of the Market Ancillary Service Specification (MASS).

H.5 Controls, Communications and Telemetry Information

Controls, Communications and Telemetry Information

Please describe the facilities installed to receive dispatch instructions for the enablement of each ancillary service from AEMO’s market systems. For example, how will the plant operator find out when the ancillary services are enabled by AEMO’s market systems? Does the plant operator have access to AEMO’s market systems, or does the plant operator rely on someone else telling them when necessary?

Controls, Communications and Telemetry Information

Please describe the control facilities installed for each ancillary service in accordance with the market ancillary service specification, including communications and telemetry, where applicable. For example, are the fast and slow services to be provided by governor systems or under- or over-frequency relays? Are the regulating services to be provided in response to generation setpoints or raise/lower pulses? Is the plant controlled from a location other than the power station to provide these services?

Please identify any generating units with switching controllers that share frequency comparison equipment such that they cannot use separate frequency settings. For example, which generating units (if any) share the same under- or over-frequency relay for initiating the ancillary service response?

Please describe the monitoring and recording facilities installed for each ancillary service in accordance with the market ancillary service specification, including communications and telemetry, where applicable. What is the sampling interval of active power and frequency records?

H.6 FCAS Dispatch InstructionsDo you wish to receive 5-minute FCAS enabled dispatch instructions via SCADA in addition to instructions provided via the MMS Data Interchange18?

Yes

I understand and acknowledge the following:

AEMO’s primary interface for ancillary services dispatch instructions is either AEMO’s automatic generation control system (AGC) for regulation services only, or the MMS Data Interchange. Market Participants may choose to receive dispatch instructions via SCADA, but must be aware that AEMO considers this a secondary system and cannot monitor successful transmission of SCADA signals.

No

r Please clearly mark any attachments as ‘Attachment to Section H’ and number the pages consecutively.

18 Generating units on remote AGC will receive AGC set-points via SCADA every control cycle (e.g. 4 seconds) and must respond to AGC set-points whenever enabled for Regulation FCAS. When a unit is enabled for both regulation and contingency FCAS, contingency FCAS takes priority over AGC set-points if a contingency event occurs until frequency has recovered. Refer to Section 6.9 of the MASS.
