    INTRODUCTION

    T

    his Technical Report is an annual publication of Power Holding Company Nigeria Plc

    (PHCN). It addressed the National Generation and Tranmission Grid Operations in 2009as collated from the electronic databank of theNational Control Centre (NCC), Osogbo.

    Significant headings covered are:

    1.0 Grid Operationsin 2009

    2.0 Constraints to Grid Operations in 2009

    3.0 Reinforcements to the National Grid in 2009

    4.0 System Disturbances 5.0 Accidents and Mishaps 6.0. Conclusions and Recommendations

    Grid Operations in 2009arecompared with the previous year 2008 through tables and

    graphs.

    Comprehensively analyzed are plant and equipment outages, energy generated,

    transmitted and available for sales to the distribution network.

    Supplementary charts, graphs and other important details enhancing assimilation of the

    report are displayed.

    1.0. GRID OPERATIONS IN 2009The plant average availability at Kainji Station in 2009 was 445.8MW. This was

    6.5MW higherthan 2008figure of 438.9MW.

    Jebba's plant availability ranged between 578.4MW and 376.2MW in 2009 with averageavailability of 458MW. This was lower than 2008 average availability of 529.4MW by

    71.4MW.

    At Shiroro Power Station, plant availability throughout the year was less than 2008,

    varying between 450MW and 300MW with an average of 404.6MW. This was 84.2

    MW less than 2008figure of 488.8MW.

    1.1 HYDROLOGY AND LAKE OPERATIONS

    1.1.1. Kainji Lake

    The average computed inflow of the 2008/2009 black flood yield into the Kainji Lake was lowerthan the average forecast inflow by 18.34%.

    When the average black flood inflow was compared with the figures of immediate past five

    years, the 2008/2009 black flood was higher than the 2007/2008 by 13.274%, higher than

    2006/2007 by 21.23%, higher than 2005/2006 by 12.45%, lower than 2004/2005 by 6.4%.

    The good flood yield, brought the head water elevation to 140.94 meters corresponding to 11.05

    billion cubic metres by the beginning of the hydro year, January 1st 2009.

    The black flood inflow peaked on 2nd February 2009, with a value of 1834 cubic metres per

    second (m3/sec).

    This was (4.6%) higher than the peak daily computed inflow of 2007/2008.

    At the Joint Operations/Generation Planning meeting held at the National Control Centre, NCC,

    Osogbo between 11th and 13th March, 2009, the planned turbine releases and the expected

    inflow into the Kainji Lake from the months of March through August were as in the Table1B.

    The aim of the meeting was to agree on the draw down trajectory of the Lake in such a manner

    that will optimize the utilization of the stored water, till the next flood season, taking into

    consideration the safety of the dam structures.

    Kainji which started with elevation 140.94 metres (11.05 b.cu. metres) on 1st January, 2009,

    dropped to minimum elevation of 130.39 metres (1.6 b.cu. metres) in July 25th 2009. During the

    filling, an elevation of 141.39 metres (11.6 b.cu. metres) was attained in December 31st 2009.

    Average inflow in 2009 was 9.7% higher than the average inflow of 2008. While average

    discharge in 2009 was 11.88% lower than 2008. There was water spillage throughout the year

    except in September and October 2009. Average spillage at Kainji in 2009 was 42.63% higher

    than 2008s. (table 1A). A comparison between forecast and actual inflows; forecast and actual

    discharges during the year was depicted in table 1B. The overall Kainji MW availability was

    lower (1.5%) than the previous year (see chart 1&2).

    1.1.2 Jebba Lake

    Jebba Lake, located downstream of the Kainji Lake, depended largely on Kainji Station turbine

    discharges especially during the dry months when the lateral inflows had ebbed out. At the

    beginning of the hydro year, 1st January 2009, the head water was at 101.0 metres,

    corresponding to 3.30 billion cubic metres of water. This volume was 1.7% lower than the

    storage balance of 3.82 billion cubic metres recorded at the beginning of the hydro year, 1st

    January 2009. During the year, the minimum head water recorded, was 99.04metres which

    occurred on July 31st, 2009. The lateral inflow peaked on September 3, with a value of 1225

    m3/sec. It was however 26.69% lower than the peak lateral inflow of 2008.

    Despite threat of spillage at Jebba in the year when the head water elevation attained 103.10 metres, this

    was averted due to cooperation between the stake holders including NCC, Kainji and Jebba Managements..

    By December 31st2009, the head water elevation in Jebba was 100.82 metres corresponding to 3.25 billion

    cubic metres. This was 0.1% lower than the head water elevation of the Lake at the same period in 2008.

    1.1.3 Shiroro Lake

    At the beginning of the hydro year, January 1st 2009, the reservoir elevation was 374.20 metrescorresponding to storage balance of 3.8225 billion cubic metres. This volume was higher (2.7%) than the

    storage balance at the same time 2008.

    During the period, it was difficult to actualize the draw down plan because of the grid demand. Each timethere was System disturbance, Shiroro was always islanded to feed the Federal Capital Territory pending

    System restoration.

    Unstable gas supply to thermal stations often necessitated running additional units than planned in order to

    maintain grid integrity and stability.

    In the year, Shiroro lake was drawn down to 54.8 metresby June 7th, 2009 -the lowest ever- due toavailability of only two of the Shiroro generating units. That was to create enough space for white flood

    and consequently avert spillage as much as possible.

    Lake filling commenced on July 31st, 2009 when the average computed inflow was 562 m3/sec.

    The maximum head water elevation in Shiroro Lake was 382.37 metres which occurred on 1 stNovember

    2009, corresponding to 5.80 billion cubic metres. Draw down of the lake to the minimum level ever paidoff as prolonged spillage was averted..

    Overall ,Shiroro MW availability throughout 2009 dropped by 20.81% when compared with 2008 figure.

    By December 31st2009, the head water elevation in Shiroro stood at 378.24 meters, corresponding to a

    storage balance of 4.69 billion cubic metres.

    1.2. THERMAL GENERATION

    1.2.0. GENERATION AVAILABILITY

    The plants average MW availability for year 2009 is contained in table 2. Monthly average MWavailability was computed by averaging the daily actual generation output in the month.

    Thermal plants average availability was 3194.3MW in 2009. Of this,1104.3MW was from

    A.E.S, Okpai, Afam VI, Ibom and Omoku (Independent Power Producers) while 2090MW was

    from PHCN. The thermal availability was 70.95.12% of the total hydro and thermal availability

    of 4502.3MW in the year. It was 7.78% higher than 2008 average thermal and hydro availability

    of 4177.0MW. (section 1.2.1. to 1.2.12).

    1.3. GENERATION ORDERING AND LOAD DISPATCH

    An integrated grid was operated in 2009, pooling generation from Kainji, Jebba and Shiroro

    Hydro Power Stations and Egbin, Delta, Afam(1-V), Afam V1, Sapele, AES, Okpai, Omotosho,

    Ajaokuta, Omoku, Geregu, Olorunsogo and IBOM thermal Stations. Inadequate gas supply from

    the Nigerian Gas Company (NGC) and incessant low gas pressure militated against full thermal

    capacity generation into the grid. Among the affected Stations were: Egbin and AES which,

    although capable of an average generation of 1217.3MW, was frequently confined between 200

    and 800 MW. Geregu, Omotosho and Olorunsogo plants were idle for several months in 2009

    due to lack of gas. Since generation availability was grossly inadequate to meet the ever

    increasing load demand, load shedding continued through out the year in order to maintainpower balance.

    1.4 FREQUENCY CONTROL

    Due to generation shortage, the grid was operated outside the frequency control policy of 50Hz

    + 0.40% i.e. 49.80Hz to 50.20Hz, resulting in frequency excursions outside the operational

    limits. Most of the gas turbines on the grid were operated on temperature control mode. Hence

    they were often insensitive to vagaries of system frequency. The automatic voltage regulator

    (AVRs) and governor system of KainjiKaplan units (variable blades) were not functional. All

    the other machines in the system were considered base load, except Jebba units that regulate

    occasionally. It is however noteworthy that the underfrequency relays installed in some stations

    obviated system collapses on several occasions.

    1.5. VOLTAGE CONTROL

    In 2008, the voltage control policy of 330kV + 5% and 15% on the 330kV buses and 132kV

    +10% and -15% for the 132kV buses was frequently maintained. The Area Control Centres

    efforts in this regard were commendable. Diverse Engineering techniques of voltage control

    were applied in the year. Among them were reactive power generation/absorption by generators

    in the proximity of the controlled bus; use of reactive compensators and as a last resort ,switching

    of 330kVcircuits.

    The last option is seldom applied except all else failed as switching out of a circuit

    would weaken the system security.

    Since November, 2001 System supervision through the mirrored SCADA facilities of the

    supplementary National Control Centre was of a tremendous benefit as voltage profile of

    the 330kV buses were lucidly displayed on the Man-Machine-Interface (MMI) monitors.

    1.6. Outage Planning

    In 2009, Generation and Transmission outage plans were implemented. Following

    analyses of each of these outages.

    1.6.1 Generation Outage Planning

    In fulfilling the requirement of the operational Procedure No. 10 (OP.10), each Power

    Station and Transmission Regionforwarded their planned outages schedule for the year asfrom November, 2008.

    This was sequel to NCCs memo addressed to the Chief Executive Officers in all the

    Power stations and Regional Transmission Managers of the Transmission Regions. TheIndependent Power Producers (IPPs) of AES and Okpai were also included.

    A coordinated master programme for 2009 planned outages was drawn mindful of theGrid integrity and security. Compliance with the maintenance plan was monitored in the

    year.

    1.6.2. Transmission Outage Planning

    Prior to the approval of a planned outage for either the 330/132kV Transmission/Subtransmission lines, transformers, reactorsorswitchgears,system integrity, security and

    stability were highly considered before conveying approval of the maintenance schedule

    to each Station.

    1.6.2.1 2009 Forced Outage Analysis

    The following analyses were based on the equipment forced outage records kept at NCC.

    1.6.2.2 330kV Circuit Forced OutagesNumber of 330kV forced outages in 2009was 440 (Table 5A). This was 29% higherthan 341recorded in year 2008.

    The years peak incidents of 330kV forced outages of 63were attained in September.

    Year average was 26. The least incident of 24 occurred in May. In the previous year aminimum of 15330kV forced outages wasrecorded in March, 2008.

    1.6.2.3 132kV Circuit Forced OutagesIn 2009, there were 917 incidents of 132kV forced outages. It rose by 5.6% in

    comparison with 2008 value of 865. The year commenced with 67 number of 132kVforced outages. It peaked at 106in Apriland closed at 48incidents by December with

    a year average of 76.

    1.6.2.4 330kV Planned, Urgent And Emergency Outages

    Frequencies of occurrence planned and emergency outages in 2009were 50, 114and 144respectively compared with 103, 75 and 136 values of 2008. There was drop of 53 in

    planned outage but urgent and emergency outages increased in number by 35(9.6%) and 8(5.5%).

    1.6.2.5 132kV Planned, Urgent And Emergency OutagesIn 2009the incidents of 132kV planned,urgent and emergency outages summed up to 53,

    308 and 2824. Relative to 2008 withfigures of 93, 289and 2902respectively, incidents

    of planned and emergency outages dropped by 40(78%) and 78(2.7%) - (Tables 6Aand 6B).

    1.6.2.6 Combined 330kV and 132kV OutagesThere were 748 330kV outages comprising forced, planned, urgent and emergency

    outages in 2009. It rose by 93 compared with 2008 figure of 635. Year 2009 had a

    combined 4101 incidents of 132kV outages. It dropped by 78in comparison with 2008value of 4149.

    The reduction in total number of incidents in 2008 could be attributed to measures takenin June, 2008 to address incessant system disturbance. It involves a 12-hour,2-Zonal load

    allocation arrangement. A Zone had supply for 12-hours as the other was on outage.

    This arrangement ensured full and uninterrupted supply to a Zone.

    1.7 ENERGY PRODUCTIONThe total energy generated from all the Power Stations owned by the Power Holding

    Company of Nigeria (PHCN) was 13577979.69MWH. This figure was by 16.61% lowerthan that generated in 2008.

    Independent Power Plants (IPPs) which included AES (former Enron), Okpai, Ibom,

    Omoku (P/H) and Afam VI all together generated 7315453.11MWH (see Table 7.)

    This figure was higher than 2008 figure of 5025638.94MWH by 45.56%.

    The Niger-Delta problem affected the energy production from the Thermal Power

    Stations gravely.

    The Nigerian Electricity Supply Corporation Limited (NESCO) and Omoku (PH) were

    still feeding isolated portion of the grid on 33kV network.

    The total energy pooled by all the PHCN owned Power Stations and the IPPs excluding

    NESCO was 20893432.80MWH.

    Overall, the total energy produced in the country including NESCO fell by 1.93% incomparison with the energy produced in 2008.

    Hydro Power Generation in 2009 was 7464640.00(35.73%) while the thermal powerPlants produced 13428792.80MWH (64.27%) (see Table 8.0)

    Maintenance of the units in hydro power stations was normally scheduled to hold

    during the dry seasononly(July - September).

    Jebba P.S produced less energy in 2009 (2676860.00MWH) when compared with the

    energy production in 2008 (2794976MWH). The decrease was as a result of reducedinflow into the Lake.

    The shortfall in thermal generation could be attributed to:

    a. Unstable dry gas supply from Nigerian Gas Companyb. Each time there was system disturbance,thermal plants seldom came back quickly

    especially the steam turbines.

    The simultaneous National Peak Generation for 2009was 3710.0MW which occurred on

    December 24, 2009. It was greaterthan the previous year by 114.1MW(3.17%).

    All the power stations consumed a total of 563981.38MWH in 2009, bringing the overall

    consumption to 2.70% of total generation.

    The net energy sent out to the various injection substations, via the Transmission lineswas 20329451.42MWH. Total energy made available for sales and Distribution losses

    by the end of 2009was 18620097.53MWH. Thisrepresented 91.59% of the total energy

    sent out.

    The overall transmission losses and substation consumption amounted to 8.41% of the

    total energy sent out (see Table 10)

    1.7.1 Energy Sales Analysis

    Tables 10 and 11 show the total Energy made available for the eight (8) TransmissionRegion across the country.

    Similarly, Enugu Region in 2009consumed 9.25% while in 2008 it consumed 8.54%. of

    the total energy made available for sales. The incessant trippings of Benin/ Onitshaand Onitsha/Alaoji 330kV Lines contributed to loss of revenue from this axis.

    It has been observed that Osogbo, PortHarcourt,Shiroro and Benin Regions improved

    in their consumption, 12.66% , 9.80 %, 16.05% and 11.18% respectively from 11.38%, 8.42%,15.18% and 10.56% in 2008.

    Bauchi and Kaduna Regions both dropped in their consumption from 5.27% and 11.26%in 2008 to 4.85% and 9.24% in 2009.

    For three consecutives years the energy made available for sales has been dropping. In2007 it dropped by 2.58% , in 2008 by 7.51%and in 2009 by 1.36%.

    1.7.2. GAS SUPPLY TO THERMAL STATIONS

    PHCN is a major consumer of the abundant natural gas marketed by Nigerian Gas

    Company (NGC) to generate power for the country and her neighbours. All the PHCN

    owned Thermal Power Stations namely Egbin, Sapele, Delta, Afam 1-V, Geregu,

    35

  • 7/14/2019 2009 AnnualReport Final-13!05!10

    41/104

    Omotosho and Olorunsogo, and IPPs such as AES, Okpai, Ajaokuta, AfamVI ran primarily on

    natural gas. During the period of drought or low lake levels, all these Power Station depended

    solely on the gas supply. Okpai G.S. rarely had gas problems because they own and maintain

    their gas wells. Over the years, the quantity and quality of this commodity supplied by NGC,had not been adequate for PHCN operations. Some of the consequences of this inadequate

    supply were:

    1. Inability of PHCN to utilize available thermal plants capacity for power generation.

    2. Plants breakdowns due to ingress of condensate in the Combustion chamber or incessant

    . forced outage.

    3. Frequent system disturbances.

    4. Embarrassment to PHCN corporate image in particular and the country at large.

    5. Loss of revenue to PHCN and economic activities throughout the country.

    6. Enironmental pollution as some customers put on their personal generators inin the absence of PHCN supply.

    7. Insecurity Evil practices thrived in locations without electricity.

    8. Much demand was put on the hydro turbines, making it difficult to follow planned projections.

    2.0. CONSTRAINTS TO GRID OPERATIONS

    This subject is treated under the following sub-headings: 2.1. System Control Constraints

    2.2. Generation Constraints.

    2.3. Transmission Constraints

    2.1. Constraints to Grid Operations: System Communications

    2.1.1 Achievements

    2.1.1.1 System Communications

    In the System Communications Maintenance Subsector great efforts are continually being madeto ensure availability of reliable telecommunications for effective Power System Operations andControl. Following are some of the achievements made in the year under review.

    i. Provision of HOTLINE Communication to OKPAI Power Station.ii. Restoration of HICOM Optic Fibre Voice Communication to Akangba T.S. (Extension

    2287) and Ikeja West (Extension 2286). This doubles the media of communicationfrom NCC to these stations.

    iii.

    Installation of Voice Communication through PAX/PLC (Power Link Type) andMicrowave Radio to following 132KV Stations Ile-Ife, Ilesa, Ondo, Akure, Offa andOmuaran.

    iv. Provision of Fibre Optics Communication via SOPHO PAX between Osogbo (NCC) and

    Ayede 330KV T.S. This is to augment the existing PAX/PLC Communication to Ayede.v. Restoration of PLC Communication media to Afam P.S., Jebba T.S., Alaoji T.S. and

    Delta P.S. after a major breakdown of the PLC equipment in these stations. CorporateHeadquarters provided the spare RF converter (P4LQ) modules used to replace the

    faulty ones.vi. Restoration of HICOM Optic Fibre telephone line No. 2282 to Benin T.S. This facilitates

    having double media to Benin T.S. also.

    The above achievements have really enhanced effective Power System Operations and Controlunlike the previous years. There is now redundancy to most stations where NCC cancommunicate to through Optic Fibre medium and Power Line Carrier medium. This makescommunication more reliable and System Operations easier.

    2.1.2. Constraints

    2.1.2.1. System Communications

    i. As a result of the vandalized ADLASH Optic Fibre cable between Benin T.S., Sapele and

    Delta Power Stations, communication to these stations has been a big problem

  • 7/14/2019 2009 AnnualReport Final-13!05!10

    55/104

    especially during system restoration after a collapse. For reliability ofcommunication to these stations there is need to restore these Optic Fibre cables.Meanwhile only PAX/PLC with limited channel is in use to reach the two stations.

    ii. Contract has been awarded to rehabilitate the DC S255 switches in New Haven,

    Kaduna, Kano, Gombe, Onitsha, Alaoji and Egbu 330KV Transmission Stations for moreefficient interconnectivity between the various stations and NCC, Osogbo.

    iii. Contract hasbeen awarded for provision of Direct Voice Communication line fromNCC to Kainji, Ayede, Ikeja West, Egbin, Jebba T.S., Jebba G.S., Shiroro, Benin, DeltaP.S., Sapele P.S. via the existing PDH Optic Fibre equipment.

    iv. Contracts have also been awarded to extend the reach of Optic Fibre technology fromShiroro to Kaduna to Kano route and Kaduna-Jos-Gombe route.

    v. Contracts for rehabilitation of 11no. PLC links have been awarded in order to improveGRID Telecommunication.

    vi.Another big constraint to System Communication which has not been taken care of islack of communication me
