2 Agenda Frequency Response and Standard background Overview of BAL What s changing Field Trial Frequency Response Survey Form 2 Frequency Response Survey Form 1 Other field trial activities Questions Next Steps 2

3 Background FERC Order 693 directed specific changes for BAL-003 SAR drafted to address the issues identified by FERC NERC OC authorized Frequency Response field trial to help standard development at the June 7 8, 2011 OC meeting 3

4 Frequency Response Basics Frequency Response, termed beta (β), is A fundamental reliability service A combination of governor and load response Following a generator (or load loss) β stabilizes frequency at a new point Frequency does not return to 60 Hz until the contingent Balancing Authority replaces the loss 4

5 Typical Frequency Events Typical Events (5 seconds before unit trip to 60 seconds thereafter) 5

6 Bias vs. Frequency Response Frequency Bias (B) is not the same as Frequency Response (β) Frequency Response is actual MW contribution to stabilize frequency Bias is an approximation of β used in the ACE equation (prevents AGC withdrawal of β) Both are negative numbers (as frequency drops, MW output increases and vise versa) Both are measured in MW/0.1Hz Bias (absolute value) must be > β (absolute value) In the East, B (absolute value) is about 2-3 x as large as β (absolute value) Bias (absolute value) must be at least 1% of Balancing Authority peak load under current standard If there is to be a difference between B and β, it is preferable to be over-biased 6

7 FRS Original Goals Original SAR Objectively benchmark and track BA and Interconnection performance Confirm trends Learn why and where response is low Additional generator level data from low responders Accurate data for models Enable technically sound decisions on setting any future performance obligations FERC Order No. 693 directed additional work 7

8 BAL Overview Drafting Team proposing five Requirements (only one is a significant ifi change) Frequency Response performance obligation Frequency Bias Setting Implementation AGC to be operated in Tie-Line Bias Appropriate Frequency Bias Setting for those providing Overlap Regulation Service, Minimum Frequency Bias Setting NERC has committed to file BAL inthe NERC has committed to file BAL in the first quarter of

9 Reasons for Changes FERC directives in Order No. 693 Determine the appropriate periodicity of frequency response surveys Define the necessary amount of Frequency Response needed for Reliable Operation for each balancing authority with methods of obtaining and measuring that the frequency response is achieved Details are described in the Background Document that will be posted with the Standard 9

10 Requirement R1 BA to provide an average (median) amount of Frequency Response for defined set of events Frequency Response Obligation (FRO) is defined for upcoming year (based on BA size) BA reports performance at the end of the year for frequency excursions during the year Most, if not all BAs should have no trouble meeting FRO Generally sufficient Frequency Response in each Interconnection Standard provides mechanisms to obtain response 10

11 R2-R5 R5 Similar to Today 2. Implement Frequency Bias Setting on date specified by NERC 3. AGC operation in Tie-Line Bias, unless detrimental to reliability 4. Defines how Overlap Regulation providers implement Bias Setting 5. Identifies minimum Bias Setting Drafting team proposes 0.8% of peak/0.1hz Attachment B outlines process for changes to Bias Setting floor 11

12 Attachment A to the Standard Defines Process NERC will follow to Select events for analysis Allocate the Interconnection s ti Frequency Response Obligation to BAs NERC will publish lists of events during the year so BAs will have heads up on events that will be used BAs encouraged to develop local tools to scan for events and capture data for ongoing analysis 12

13 Allocation Methodology in Attachment A Determine FRO based on the average of forecasted peak load and installed capacity Formula FROBA = FROInt x 13

14 Estimating your FRO 1. Use the proposed FRO for your Interconnection Eastern Western Texas HQ Starting Frequency Hz *Highest UFLS Hz Contingency Protection Criteria MW **Base Obligation MW/0.1Hz With 25% Safety Margin MW/0.1Hz 2. Multiply pythis value by: Your BA s Bias Setting Your Interconnection s Total Bias You can find Bias Setting values at: nerc com/docs/oc/rs/2011%20cps2%20bounds%20report %20v6b(Update ).pdf 14

15 Key Field Trial Activities Frequency events have been identified for the period December 2010 through present utilizing Attachment A of the proposed standard NERC is requesting that the BAs fill out FRS Forms 1 and 2 for those events related to the interconnection in which the BA operates This data request was approved by the NERC Operating Committee at their June 7 8, 2011 meeting 15

16 Other Field Trial Activities 2010 NERC Recommendations (Alerts) on governors and BA Frequency Response 2011 Bias calculation 2012 Bias calculation (following Attachment A process) Evaluate impact due to change from 1% to 0.8% floor for Bias Setting Adjust based on observations 16

Enhanced FNet System High-speed sensors (10 samples/second) Detects frequency excursions and estimates gen or load lost Triangulates to estimate location of disturbance Records data & calculates key frequency response factors CERTS Resource Adequacy (RA)Tool Smart Alarm System Based on 1-minute average frequency ICCP readings Indicates frequency deviations and alarms beyond trigger levels Provides BA-level variances in ACE CERTS Frequency Monitoring and Analysis (FMA) Tool After-the-fact analysis of detected and recorded data 17

Event stabilization must be in less than 18 seconds, AND: Point C Point C Interconnection Delta F (Hz) Under Freq. Over Freq. Eastern < > Western 0.04 < > Texas 0.15 < > Quebec 0.04 < >

22 Frequency Event Selection Criteria 4. Pre-disturbance frequency stable and ~60 Hz Value A calculated for -16 sec. to 0 sec. before transient 5. Events with a second event before first scan of Value B not used 6. Exclude frequency events near top of hour when large changes in load or interchange are occurring 7. Use cleanest 2-3 frequency excursions each month older or other events from same season may be substituted Other detected candidate events may be used by ERO to evaluate interconnection frequency response performance 22

23 Introduction of FRS Form 2 FRS Form 2 receives BA AGC scan rate data to measure the BA s primary frequency response performance to a single, identified frequency perturbation on the system. Measures the change in Net Actual Interchange and the change in frequency due to the perturbation. Standardizes the measurement process for all BAs in all Interconnections. The field trial is testing 5 different average periods in this measure. 23

24 Objective We will review the function of FRS Form 2. The general layout where input from the BA is required. What data is required for each event. Where this data is placed in Form 2. How to execute the calculation of frequency response performance. File naming convention. 24
