Monthly Max Cap Profiles October 12, 2011 HMTF Conference Call. Max Cap Profiles. A max cap profile is used to vary the maximum capacity of a plant by month For HD plants, the max cap profile is derived directly from the historical shape, because we intend PROMOD to use the shape.

  1. Monthly Max Cap Profiles October 12, 2011 HMTF Conference Call

  2. Max Cap Profiles • A max cap profile is used to vary the maximum capacity of a plant by month • For HD plants, the max cap profile is derived directly from the historical shape, because we intend PROMOD to use the shape

  3. Max Cap Profiles for PLF/HTC Plants • For PLF/HTC plants, the max cap profile will allow the maximum capacity of the PLF/HTC shape to vary by month • Question: What values do we use to derive the max cap profile for HTC/PLF plants? • The plant’s nameplate capacity? • Max capacity by month observed in the HD shape, when available? • Only if the max cap observed is greater than nameplate? • Operator reported max capacities • More likely to reflect operational restrictions/flexibility

  4. Comparison of months with generation above and below nameplate capacity for HTC-modeled plants in CA for 2005
