Reliability Analysis
• AC contingency-based• Generation dispatches (age, size, location,
influence, DC ties, VFT)– Outages/unavailability– Age; size; location.
• Problem categories– Wide area bulk power transfer– Local area regional problems
• No assessment of adequacy (LOLE, location, type) of available generation
16
Reliability Analysis
• Dispatch scenarios– Generation deficient area
• 10% unavailability to assess import sensitivity
– Generation surplus area • 10% unavailability modeled using target
gens– Hydro and wind resources not included
• Monitor interface loading and voltage sensitivity
17

Reliability Findings
• Western ERCOT sub-area
– No analysis performed. CREZ analysis deemed adequate until further clarity is established.
22
Next Steps
• Align findings with results from economic analysis
• Discuss fixes with Transmission Owners to develop solution alternatives
23
•The economic viability of different projects are being evaluated using a base case and several change cases:
– High load case
– High natural gas price case ($11/MMBtu)
– Two cases for different levels of expansion/construction of new nuclear plants
– High wind case (in excess of CREZ scenario 2 wind)
– New technologies (solar, energy storage, plug-in hybrids)
– Carbon tax
