NEED FOR AN IEGC Period Situation

Early 1970s Vertically integrated SEBs.

Few problems – resolved either bilaterally or at REB level. Late 1970s- Entry of Central Generating Utilities.Early1980s Gradual increase in disputes but consensu generally emerged at REB level. Late 1980s Disputes/conflicts increased in direct proportion to number of Central Sector Power Stations.

Limitations in resolving the same at REB level.

Page 5: Largest sized hydro unit (180 MW at Chamera) in the country

NEED FOR AN IEGC Period Situation

Early 1990s Unresolved commercial disputes resulted in need of an umpire. 1994-96 Transfer of RLDCs from CEA to

POWERGRID.

1997-99 Amendments to ES Act, Constitution of CERC / SERCs, Unbundling of SEBs, possible entry of mega IPPs,

IPTCs - more players, more scope for confusion.

CHAPTER – 7 SCHEDULING AND DESPATCH CODE

OBJECTIVE :-

To enable RLDCs to prepare the despatch schedule for each beneficiary. It also provides methodology of issuing real time despatch / drawal instructions and rescheduling, if required, as also commercial arrangement for the deviations from schedules and mechanism for reactive power pricing.

Page 74: Largest sized hydro unit (180 MW at Chamera) in the country

CHAPTER – 7 SCHEDULING AND DESPATCH CODE

SCOPE :-

Applicable to RLDC / SLDCs, ISGS, SEBs / STUs and other beneficiaries in the Grid. 

Procedure for the generating stations of BBMB shall be separately formulated by NRLDC in consultation with BBMB.

Page 75: Largest sized hydro unit (180 MW at Chamera) in the country

CHAPTER – 7 SCHEDULING AND DESPATCH CODE DEMARCATION OF RESPONSIBILITIES :-

Regional grid shall be operated as loose power pools with states having full

operational autonomy.

System of each state shall be treated as a notional control area. States shall

generally be expected to maintain their actual drawal from the Regional Grid close to the net drawal schedule (sum of scheduled drawal from ISGS and any bilateral inter change).

Page 76: Largest sized hydro unit (180 MW at Chamera) in the country

CHAPTER – 7 SCHEDULING AND DESPATCH CODE DEMARCATION OF RESPONSIBILITIES :-

Tight control on the deviations from schedule by states not mandated due to non availability of requisite facilities for minute – to - minute on line regulation of drawals. Deviations from schedule to be priced appropriately.

Whenever system frequency is below 49.5 Hz, states shall endeavor to restrict their net drawal to within the schedule. Loadshedding to be resorted to in case frequency < 49.0 Hz.

Page 77: Largest sized hydro unit (180 MW at Chamera) in the country

CHAPTER – 7 SCHEDULING AND DESPATCH CODE DEMARCATION OF RESPONSIBILITIES :-

SLDCs / STUs to carry out short - term and long - term demand estimation to enable advance planning to meet the consumer’s load without overdrawing.

ISGS shall be responsible for generating as per the daily schedule advised by RLDC.

ISGS allowed to deviate from the schedule, in line with the flexibility allowed to States. Deviations are to be appropriately priced.

Page 78: Largest sized hydro unit (180 MW at Chamera) in the country

CHAPTER – 7 SCHEDULING AND DESPATCH CODE DEMARCATION OF RESPONSIBILITIES :-

Whenever system frequency > 50.3 Hz, actual net injection of ISGS should not exceed scheduled despatch. 

RLDC nay direct the SLDCs / ISGS to increase / decrease their drawal / generation in case of contingencies and such directions shall be immediately complied.

Outage of Generation and Transmission system to be coordinated through OCC / RLDC. Outage requiring restriction on ISGS generation to be planned carefully.

Page 79: Largest sized hydro unit (180 MW at Chamera) in the country

CHAPTER – 7 SCHEDULING AND DESPATCH CODE DEMARCATION OF RESPONSIBILITIES :-

Agreements between constituents and ISGS indicating shares, drawal pattern, tariffs,

payment terms etc. to be filed with RLDCs and REB Secreteriats for being considered in REA. Similar filing required in respect of bilateral agreements.

  Frequency linked despatch guidelines, as issued by RLDC, should be followed by all constituents unless otherwise advised by RLDC.

Page 80: Largest sized hydro unit (180 MW at Chamera) in the country

CHAPTER – 7 SCHEDULING AND DESPATCH CODE DEMARCATION OF RESPONSIBILITIES :-

ISGS to declare plant capabilities faithfully and avoid gaming. RLDC may ask the ISGS to explain instances of gaming, if any, with necessary backup data.

CTU would be allowed to install Special Energy Meters on all Inter-Utility Exchange Points and the constituents would extend the necessary assistance to CTU in timely collection of metered data.

Page 81: Largest sized hydro unit (180 MW at Chamera) in the country

CHAPTER – 7 SCHEDULING AND DESPATCH CODE DEMARCATION OF RESPONSIBILITIES :-

RLDC to compute

Actual Net Injection of each ISGS Actual Net Drawal of each beneficiary

based on above meter readings and forward the same to REB Secreteriat on weekly basis by each Thursday noon for the seven day period ending previous Sunday Mid-Night.

Page 82: Largest sized hydro unit (180 MW at Chamera) in the country

CHAPTER – 7 SCHEDULING AND DESPATCH CODE DEMARCATION OF RESPONSIBILITIES :-

Computations of RLDC open to checking / verification by constituents for 20 days.

In case any mistake / omission is detected, the RLDC shall forthwith make a complete check and rectify the same.

Page 83: Largest sized hydro unit (180 MW at Chamera) in the country

SCHEDULING AND DESPATCH PROCEDURE

By 10.00 hrs. Each ISGS advises RLDC of its Ex-Power Plant MW and MWh capabilities anticipated for next day i.e. 00:00 to 24:00 hrs

By 1100 Hrs. Beneficiaries advised of above information along with their entitlements

By 1500 hrs. SLDCs advise RLDC their drawal schedule for each of the ISGS in which they have share

By 1700 hrs. RLDC conveys the ‘Ex-Power Plant Despatch Schedule (in MW)' to each ISGS and ‘Net Drawal Schedule (in MW)' to each beneficiary (after deducting transmission losses)

By 2200 hrs.* ISGSs / States / Beneficiaries shall inform the modifications, if any, for incorporating in the final schedule

By 2300 hrs. RLDC shall issue the final despatch and drawal schedule.

* Since issuing the final despatch and drawal schedule is a critical activity and considerable time is involved in its preparation and carrying out requisite moderation, if any, it is desirable that this activity is completed by 2100 hrs.

All ISGS stations with capacities and allocated shares to be listed out

CHAPTER – 7 SCHEDULING AND DESPATCH CODE

Page 84: Largest sized hydro unit (180 MW at Chamera) in the country

CHAPTER – 7 SCHEDULING AND DESPATCH CODE SCHEDULING AND DESPATCH PROCEDURE :-

RLDC to ensure schedules are operationally reasonable with respect to ramping up / ramping down rates and the minimum to maximum ratio of generation.

ISGS / SLDCs to inform any modifications in foreseen capability / station wise drawal

schedule to RLDC by 2200 hrs. RLDC to issue final schedule in such cases by 2300 hrs.

Revisions in schedule permitted during the course of the day. Such revisions effective one hour after the first advise is received by the RLDC.

Page 85: Largest sized hydro unit (180 MW at Chamera) in the country

CHAPTER – 7 SCHEDULING AND DESPATCH CODE SCHEDULING AND DESPATCH PROCEDURE :-

RLDC to check for transmission constraints, if any, before finalising the drawal / despatch schedule.
