  2. Policy Mandate– National Electricity Policy Section 5.3.2 “….Prior agreement with the beneficiaries would not be a pre-condition for network expansion…” Section 5.3.5 “……..The tariff mechanism would be sensitive to distance, direction and related to quantum of flow….”

  3. Policy Mandate – Tariff Policy Section 7.1 : Transmission Pricing Section 7.1.1 “The National Electricity Policy mandates that the national tariff framework implemented should be sensitive to distance, direction and related to quantum of power flow……” Section 7.1.2 “Transmission charges, under this framework, can be determined on MW per circuit kilometer basis, zonal postage stamp basis, or some other pragmatic variant, the ultimate objective being to get the transmission system users to share the total transmission cost in proportion to their respective utilization of the transmission system……” Contd…..

  14. Methods for Sharing of Transmission Charges • Postage Stamp Method • Contract Path Method • MW Mile Method • Distance Based • Power Flow Based • Average Participation • Marginal Participation Method • Zone to Zone Method • Locational Marginal Pricing

  15. Methodology Proposed in India • Point of Connection (PoC) Charges • In Rs. per MW per month • Nodal / Zonal Charges • Separate Injection & Withdrawal Charge • Usage Based Methodology • Based on Load Flow Studies • Hybrid of Average Participation and Marginal Participation methods • PoC Charges • To be made known upfront • To be applied on Medium Term and Short Term Trades • Handling Transition • To begin with 50% Uniform Charges and 50% PoC Charges • Gradual movement towards 100% PoC Charges

  16. Average Participation • Tracing of Power • Load Tracing • Generator Tracing

  17. Marginal Participation • Marginal Participation • The charges are based on incremental utilization of network assessed through load flows.

  18. Hybrid Methodology • Hybrid of • Average Participation • Marginal Participation • Average Participation • Used to identify slack (responding) buses for each node • Marginal Participation • To compute the participation factor of each node on each line.

  19. Introduction to the PoC Charge Computation • Algorithms/ Processes • AC Load flow and transmission losses • Slack bus determination- Average Participation method • Participation factor of a node- Marginal Participation method • Loss allocation factor of node- Marginal Participation method • Input • Network data for modeling the power system • Nodal injection / Nodal withdrawal for a scenario • Yearly Transmission Charges to be apportioned • Output • Point of Connection Charge- Demand Zone/ Generation Zone • Point of Connection Losses- Demand Zone/ Generation Zone

  20. Important Definitions Approved Injection “Approved Injection means the injection in MW vetted by Implementing Agency (IA) for the Designated ISTS Customer for each representative block of months, peak and other than peak scenarios at the ex-bus of the generator or any other injection point of the Designated ISTS Customer into the ISTS, and determined based on the generation data submitted by the Designated ISTS Customers incorporating total injection into the grid, considering the long term and medium term contracts.”

  21. Important Definitions Chapter 1 ApprovedWithdrawal “Approved withdrawal means the simultaneous withdrawal in MW vetted byImplementing Agency for any Designated ISTS Customer in a control areaaggregated from all nodes of ISTS to which Designated ISTS Customer isconnected, for each representative block of months, peak and other than peakscenarios at the interface point with ISTS, and where the ApprovedWithdrawal shall be determined based on the demand data submitted by theDesignated ISTS Customers. incorporating long term and medium term transactions.”

  22. Important Definitions Chapter 1 Designated ISTS Customers “Designated ISTS Customers (‘DIC’s) means the users of any segments/elements of the ISTS and shall include all generators, state transmission utilities, SEBs or load serving entities directly connected to the ISTS including Bulk Consumer and any other entity/person.”

  23. Important Definitions Chapter 1 Implementing Agency (IA) “Implementing Agency shall mean the agency designated by theCommission to undertake the estimation of allocation of transmission chargesand transmission losses at various nodes/zones for the Application Periodalong with other functions as per [Chapter-4, Chapter-5, Chapter-6, Chapter-7and Chapter-8] of these regulations.”

  24. Important Definitions Chapter 1 Point of Connection (PoC) Charging Method “Point of connection Charging Method shall mean the methodologyof computation of sharing of ISTS charges and losses amongst DesignatedISTS Customers, which depends on the location of the node in the grid and iscalculated in accordance with Regulation 7(1(q)) and 7(1(s)) of chapter 4 ofthese regulations.”

  28. Determination of PoC Charges (1) • Consultancy Assignment for Software development • IIT, Mumbai & Power Anser Labs (PAL) • Web based Software developed for calculation of PoC Charges • WebNetUse • Software Approved by CERC

  29. Determination of PoC Charges (2) • Compilation & checking of network data • Assumptions for missing data • Formulation of Base case for load flow studies • Based upon the Network Data submitted by the DICs • All elements up to 132 kV included in the model • Load Flow Studies on the Full Network • Truncation for the purpose of PoC Charge Determination • Network truncation at 400 kV • Except NER, where it is done at 132 kV.

  31. Determination of PoC Charges (4) • Philosophy for identification of coherent nodes for zoning • State control areas to be separate demand zone except in the case of North Eastern States, which are considered as a single demand zone. • State control areas considered as generation zone except NER states which are considered as a single generation zone. • All ISGS connected at 400 kV considered as separate generation zone.

  32. Determination of PoC Charges (4) • Calculation of Zonal PoC Charges • Weighted average of nodal PoC Charges • Separate Charge for • Injection • Withdrawal • Scaling of Charges • To ensure full recovery • PoC Charges in Rs. / MW / Month

  33. Treatment of HVDC • Zero Marginal Participation for HVDC Line • HVDC line flow regulated by power order. • MP Method can not recover its cost directly. • HVDC line can be modeled as: • Load at sending end • Generator at receiving end

  34. Indirect Method for HVDC Cost Allocation • Compute Transmission Charges for all load and generators with all HVDC lines in service. • Disconnect HVDC line and again compute new transmission charges for all loads and generators • Compute difference between nodal charges with or without HVDC. • Identify nodes which benefits with the presence of HVDC • Allocate HVDC line cost to the identified nodes.
