ESB – Electricity Supply Board
• Vertically Integrated Utility
• Involved in most types of generation
• The first ESB generation plant (in 1927) was a hydro
station at Ardnacrusha
• The ESB group is one of the largest wind
generators in Ireland, and ESB has been involved in
development, construction and management of
Irelands wind resources since the 1980s.
• Large international business.
• ESB owns a number of international power stations
and has O&M contracts for several other generation
stations.

Proposed Definition of RoCoF
The new definition by both TSOs, EirGrid and SONI, for the Grid Code is:
“remain synchronised to the Transmission System for a Rate of Change of Frequency
up to and including 1 Hz per second as measured over a rolling 500 millisecond
period”

Timeline going forward
● Studies required to demonstrate compliance
– High priority – 18 months - high run hours, frequently constrained on, frequently run during high
wind
– Mid priority – 24 months - units not in other categories
– Low priority – 36 months - low run hours, infrequently constrained on, infrequently run during
high wind
– Exempt units – units soon to retire, very low runs hours or units which in EirGrid’s operational
experience have ridden through high RoCoF events in the past
ESB will need to be compliant (or derogated/exempted) by these dates to
ensure it incurs zero penalties.
