  4. Overview of Project Requirements • Deliver a tool to ERCOT capable of analyzing ERCOT’s system resources to: • Ensure adequate grid reliability; • Maintain system frequency within current NERC standards; • Provide for timely replacement of lost resources due to unit outages or unit variability; • Adequate control for risks due to unforeseen future occurrences in the real-time operations time-frame • DNV KEMA will develop: • A calibrated version of KERMIT for ERCOT’s system • Two future scenarios that ERCOT can use for the Long Term Study • New demand response modules for KERMIT to reflect potential future market participants • In addition, DNV KEMA will help support ERCOT in their KERMIT analyses to help ensure the objectives of ERCOT’s Long Term Study are met

  5. Study Benefits of Utilizing KERMIT KERMIT helps ensure efficient investments are made that reduce future costs and minimize risks • The primary benefit will be to support the long term transmission planning process • This includes: • The ability to examine and verify adequate ancillary service requirements • Ensuring transmission plans are able to maintain stability in the event of a generator outage or significant system event • Ensuring dispatch solutions for transmission networks are feasible and reliable • Testing future alternative market products or policy requirements for their effect on transmission flows • The results of KERMIT analyses help ensure efficient and necessary investments are made in transmission paths and upgrades for future system conditions

  6. Overview of KERMIT • Developed using two software platforms: • Matlab / Simulink for performing simulations • Microsoft Excel for entering data • What is KERMIT? • KEMA’s Renewable Market Integration Tool • Originally developed to study how integrating large penetrations of renewable power affects sub-hourly operations • KERMIT has expanded in scope and is now a tool for systems to examine operational strategies for handling variability in their system • This includes: • Renewable integration studies • Automatic generation control design and development • Evaluating the benefits of increased storage deployment • Analysis support for federal and ISO/RTO policy development

  10. Grid Modeling – Calibrating KERMIT We simulated a generator trip in KERMIT to replicate observed 780 MW generator trip on Feb 15 Generator trip KERMIT 24h Simulation Inputs: Load (PI Historian) Plant Schedules (SCED) Generation Portfolio (RARF) Grid Parameters Wind Production Outputs: Power Plant MW Outputs Frequency Deviation • Generation • Conventional • Renewable Frequency Response Scenarios: Test AGC Parameters Trip Events

  11. Guide to Calibration • Step 1 – Estimate inertia • Inertia estimated by observations of system frequency deviations from 60 Hz after large trip events • Feb 15 – At 16:40 MLSES_Unit3 tripped thereby removing 780 MW in a 4s period • Inertia (M) estimated via the following formula: • Initial estimate for M during hour 16 is 13,448 MWs/MVA • This provides a starting point for setting inertia multipliers for generators on system

  12. Guide to Calibration • Step 2 – Refine Inertia and Load response feedback loop gain • Examine hour when unit tripped offline • Seek for inertia and load response values that give the correct maximum frequency decline • Step 3 – Turn AGC on and iteratively adjust • Transport delays • Integral control gain (minimize sustained frequency offset errors) • Smoothing of ACE signal • Previous parameters (mainly load response) • Goal is to match maximum frequency decline and then rate of recovery of frequency • Step 4 – Analyze results for other periods of time • Ensure calibration settings for one day are sufficient for most days • Measure results based on ability to replicate frequency deviation and recovery time

  13. KERMIT Calibration - Details • KERMIT Setup • Used 4-sec PI historian data for system load, DC tie flows, and wind generation • Used SCED 5-min base points generator dispatch to take care of generator dispatch • DC tie flows were modeled as MW source points and kept on a fixed schedule • Integral gain set to zero for AGC, other parameters (deadzone, etc) set to data received • KERMIT Modifications • ERCOT is, in the view of KERMIT, an island system • KERMIT needs to have two areas, even for island systems • As a result, used a trick • Introduce a second balancing area with very low load and interconnection (1 MW) • Set load and generation within area equal to each other to limit flows across 1 MW interconnection • Calibration • We calibrate to a large generator trip to replicate severe frequency deviations and recovery times • We introduce generator trips through generator base point adjustments

  14. KERMIT Calibration Results We were able to sufficiently replicate historical large events both in terms of frequency excursion and in terms of recovery time

  17. Scenario 1 Information • We were tasked with developing two scenarios in KERMIT • The build for Scenario 1 is complete though currently in the debugging and verification of results stage • Summary of new generation • Expansion CC: 700 MW • Expansion CT: 2380 MW • New Wind: 6,968.2 MW • Administrative CT: 13,940 MW • Solar (PV): 2,500 MW • New DR: 500 MW

  18. Selection of Study Days KERMIT runs approximately 100x real time and is designed to run for a 24 hour simulation period Need to select a representative sample of study days to examine for each scenario We examined 2011 wind and conventional generation production as well as 5-min wind ramps to develop classification categories for a given day We then classified each day by the categories and determined the sample size based on number of days in each category and the standard deviation of net load The sample size was selected to give a 90% confidence interval

  22. Load Flow Model • Implemented a pipe and bubble model in KERMIT to to take into account transmission limits on major transmission interfaces. • Monthly Available Transfer Capability (ATC) values for each “pipe” were used as constraints in KERMIT • Monthly ATCs were calculated based on detailed AC model of the network. • First implementation • Assign regulation capacity to generators with sufficient headroom and not based on location • Control ERCOT frequency system wide • Observe if any “pipe” flows violated ATC constraints • Readjust regulation awards and rerun • Second implementation (currently designing) • Assign regulation capacity to generators with sufficient headroom taking into account which bubble a generator is within • Control ERCOT frequency system wide while ensuring ATC constraints are enforced

  24. SCED • We created a simplified version of SCED in KERMIT • Operates every 5 minutes • Designed to • Adjust generation levels to account for intra hourly variability • Alleviate regulation deployment (reset AGC deployments to zero) • SCED is based on hourly marginal cost curves developed by • Using the heat rate curves and fuel prices from the PROMOD simulations to develop hourly variable production cost for each generator • Estimating SCED hourly capacity by estimating generator HDL and LDL • HRUC was not modeled explicitly • Instead, variability HRUC designed to handle was included in the wind forecasts fed into PROMOD • We may change this approach and choose to model HRUC at a later stage

  25. Demand Response Module • Responsive Reserve load service will be rolled into DR module • Triggered when frequency dips below set level, 59.7 Hz • KERMIT DR Modules input • DR schedules for price responsive DR determined outside of KERMIT (DA commitments) • Price signals from KERMIT SCED to capture price-based responses (can be used to investigate different scenario deployments of DR) • System frequency to trigger RR and frequency responsive DR (EV car chargers for example) • DR responses include ability to model • Imperfect response and probabilistic response • Real time DR will include minimum sustained deployment • May need to implement a cap on maximum deployments

  26. Modeling Wind and Load Variability • Load, wind and solar data provided are 1-hr time resolved • The purpose of KERMIT is to study intra-hour variability • Therefore need to replicate intra-hour variability of load, wind, and solar • Need to upsample each data set to 1-s time resolution • Method for upsampling data set • Observe historical variability by examining power spectral density (PSD) of each data set • For wind, need to examine rate of change in PSD as more wind plants are added • This captures the smoothing effect of geographic diversity • Same goes for solar • Create a filter that replicates the PSD of each data set • Add white noise to each data set • Run noise-added data sets through filter to obtain high-resolution data sets • Will walk through a PSD for wind to explain further
