Scheduling & Its Importance :Scheduling An activity whereby: Generator declares its capacity And, Procurer gives its requisition Billing for Sale of Power (GUVNL as well as bilateral) is based on Scheduled Energy It requires close co-ordination with Plant O&M, Control Centre (SLDC) as well as consumer Factors affecting Scheduling Demand of the Grid Merit Order Protocol PPA Clauses Frequency Linked UI Rate

Grid Code :Scheduling on day ahead basis.

Implementation of Revision in Declared Capacity / Schedule In case of Normal Revision from 6th Time Block

In case of Forced Outage from 4th Time Block

Revision will only be considered if the change in declaration / schedule is at least of 2% of previous Declared Capacity / Schedule.

UI Regulations :Unscheduled Interchange means For Generating Station : Actual Gen. Scheduled Gen.

Salient Features of UI Regulation

Freq. Band: 49.5 to 50.2 Hz UI Rate Based on Frequency
10 9 8 7

Frequency Vs UI Rate

Rs/ 6 kwh 5

Freq. below 49.50 Hz, UI Rate = Rs. 8.73/kWh

4 3 2 1 0 49.1 49.2 49.3 49.4 49.5 49.6 49.7 49.8 49.9 50.0 50.1 50.2 50.3

Freq. <= 50.20 Hz,

UI Rate = Rs. 0/kWh

Frequency

UI Regulations (Contd .):Additional UI for Under Injection:

When 49.20 Hz Freq. < 49.50 Hz Additional UI = 20% of maximum UI rate = 8.73 X 0.2 = Rs. 1.75/kWh Total UI Charges= 8.73+1.746 = Rs. 10.48/kWh When Freq. < 49.20 Hz Additional UI = 40% of maximum UI rate

= 8.73 X 0.4 = Rs. 3.49/kWh

Total UI Charges= 8.73+3.49 = Rs. 12.22/kWh

PPA GUVNL Bid- 01/LTPP/2006 :Contracted Capacity: 1000 MW (250 MW from each Unit of 330 MW)

Ex-Bus Generation: 300 MW approx (considering 9% Auxiliary Consumption)

Proportionate Availability of GUVNL = 250/300 = 5/6 of ex-bus generation (Up to the Contracted Capacity)

Penalty in Case of Non Compliance:

= (1.5 Times of UI Charges at 49.00 Hz) Energy Charges

= (1.5 X 8.73) 1.4789 = 11.6161 Rs./kWh```````````````````````

PPA GUVNL Bid- 01/LTPP/2006 (Contd):For Example : If Generation = 264 MW

Ex-Bus Generation = 240 MW

Proportionate Availability for GUVNL = 5/6 of 240 MW = 200 MW

If Generation is increased to: 300 MW

Ex-Bus Generation = 273 MW Proportionate Availability for GUVNL = 5/6 of 273 MW = 228 MW

Here, Shortfall in Proportionate Availability to GUVNL

= 228 MW 200 MW = 28 MW

Injection above ScheduleAt What COST ???

Over injection = 28 MW (228 MW 200 MW)
If, Freq. 50.20 Hz If, Freq. < 49.50 Hz

Penalty (for 1 hr) = 28X 1 X 1000 X11.6161 = Rs. 3.25 lakhs UI Revenue = 0 Rs. Net Cost to Company = Rs. 3.25 lakhs

Penalty (for 1 hr) = Rs. 3.25 lakhs

UI Revenue = 28 X 1 X 1000 X 8.73 = Rs. 2.44 lakhs Net Cost to Company = Rs. 0.81 lakhs

So, Making Loss in both the cases when over injecting and not giving GUVNL its Share i.e. 5/6 of Total Injection

Two Faces of Coin

Gen. = SCHEDULE Gen. < Schedule & Freq<=49.50 Hz UI Penalty @ 8.73/kWh (freq=49.50Hz) @ 10.48/kWh (49.20<freq<49.50) @ 12.22/kWh (freq<49.20Hz) Gen. > Schedule (irrespective of Freq.)

Penalty for shortfall in Proportionate Availability

@ 11.62/kWh

To reduce PENALTY: Stick to the Schedule

Suggestions : Sticking to the Schedule will optimize Companys Profits and will have only marginal effect on PLF Maintenance forecast should be as accurate as possible and in advance Any change in Availability of Plant should be intimated to the Scheduling Team without any loss of time
