Owners, Operators, and Users

2005 Energy Policy Act:

• All users, owners, and operators of the bulk-power system shall comply with reliability standards

FERC Rule

• All entities subject to the Commission’s reliability jurisdiction… (users, owners, and operators of the bulk-power system) shall comply with applicable Reliability Standards …

Page 3: Integration of Variable Generation Task Force Preliminary Conclusions and Actions.

North American Electric Reliability Corporation (NERC)

Mission: “To ensure the reliability of the North American bulk power system”

• Formed in 1968

• U.S. Electric Reliability Organization

• Working to gain similar recognition in Canada

Integration of Variable Generation Task Force (IVGTF) Scope

The Task Force will prepare: • A concepts document: philosophical

& technical considerations

• Recommendations: practices, requirements & reliability standards

The document will include:• Planning timeframe issues

• Operational Planning and Real-time Operating timeframe issues

• Review NERC Standards for gaps

• Review of future developments: i.e. storage, EHV

• Conclusions and recommendations

Page 8: Integration of Variable Generation Task Force Preliminary Conclusions and Actions.

Draft Summary Report prepared

Comments received from the IVGTF members

Meeting held in August

• Finalize recommendations and actions

• Editorial meeting on Summary Report

Coordination with UCTE-EWIS

IVGTF Status Report

Keeping Reliability in the Balance

Bulk power system reliability must be maintained

All generation must contribute to system reliability

Standards must be fair, transparent & performance-based

Planners & operators must understand the challenges of large scale variable generation integration

Variable generation integrated into planning & operations

New Planning/operating tool requirements described in terms of bulk power system reliability performance

What Must Change?

Planners:• Consistent methods for energy &

capacity

• Add Probabilistic Expansion Analysis

• Design Flexibility during Resource & Transmission Planning

• System Design must consider Variable Distributed Resources

• PHEVs, storage & demand response provide additional resource flexibility

• Standard, generic power flow and stability models required

• Reference Manual for Planners on how to Integrate Variable Generation.

Page 13: Integration of Variable Generation Task Force Preliminary Conclusions and Actions.

What Must Change?

• Enhanced Grid Codes required:

Voltage & Frequency Ride-Thru

Reactive & Real Power Control

Frequency & Inertial Response

• Balancing Authorities must have Communications and Control of Variable Resources

• Write a Reference Manual for Operators on how to Integrate into Operations.
