2 Agenda for Presentation Introduction Review industry reliability standards and regulatory Generation Reliability Criteria Dependable Capacity Firm Energy Transmission Reliability Criteria Distribution Reliability Criteria Next Steps: ROR filing and review process 4/15/05 Page 2

3 Objectives of this session Understand industry standards for reliability and BC Hydro s Planning Criteria Understand how reliability is factored into portfolios: dependable capacity firm energy Outline ROR filing set expectations for how stakeholders will input into ROR 4/15/05 Page 3

4 Reliability - definition Adequacy The ability of the electric system to supply the aggregate electrical demand and energy requirements of their customers at all times, taking into account scheduled and reasonably expected unscheduled outages of system elements Security The ability of the electric system to withstand sudden disturbances such as electric short circuits or unanticipated loss of system elements. 4/15/05 Page 4

5 Why Planning Criteria and how are they used? Ensure BC Hydro has a reliable system Requirement to meet certain planning criteria to be connected to western North America grid Dictate when new resources or upgrades are needed for reliability 4/15/05 Page 5

6 Regulatory and Reliability groups 4/15/05 Page 6

7 Regulatory Authority BC Utilities Commission (BCUC) BCUC has regulatory authority over BC Hydro, and approves BC Hydro s reliability standards. NERC (National Electricity Reliability Council) NERC is a voluntary organization that is responsibility for Transmission reliability standards in the US NERC is promoting the development of a new mandatory system of reliability standards and compliance, backstopped in the United States by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission 4/15/05 Page 7

8 Regional Reliability Councils Western Electricity Coordinating Council (WECC) Establishes mandatory operation standards and guidelines that describe good planning practices Required by NERC to establish a resource adequacy processes 4/15/05 Page 8

9 Western Interstate Board and CREPC Western Interstate Board is an organization of 3 provinces (including BC) and 12 western states Committee on Regional Electric Power Cooperation (CREPC) Concentrating on resource assessment 4/15/05 Page 9

10 Conclusions for Regulatory All regulatory agencies and governments at all levels are interested in Reliability Due to the interconnection of the bulk electric system, joint planning and co-ordination is required. Questions? 4/15/05 Page 10

13 Customer Demand and Energy / Capacity Supply Demand 1/3 industry, 1/3 commercial, 1/3 residential variable needs throughout the day and seasonally DEMAND Supply Energy (annual total - GWh) Capacity (instantaneous - MW) 4/15/05 Page 13

14 Dependable Capacity A generating plants dependable capacity is the maximum megawatt output it can reliably produce when required, assuming all units are in service Reliably Produce: means availability coincident with system peak with high confidence level Dependable Capacity is affected by factors external to the plant I.e. streamflow conditions; fuel supply constraints; wind Not affected by: Forced outages not included - in planning reserves Planned outages not included - assumed to be scheduled around winter peak 4/15/05 Page 14

15 Dependable Capacity - calculation methodology Major Generating Plants with upstream storage: - 85% confidence level of assumed 50 years stream flows Existing IPP projects: - based on actual performance (85% confidence level ) Planned IPP projects: - based on their contracted capacity Projects in Resource Options Database: - some projects have site specific information available (Site C, Rev5), others base on class average Dependable Capacity Factors 4/15/05 Page 15

16 Constraints in Generation Systems Energy Constrained Capacity Constrained System Hydro Systems Thermal Systems Adequacy Annual Reserve Margin Metric Load/Resource Balance Constraint Fuel Limited Machine limited 4/15/05 Page 16

17 Constraints in BC Hydro s System BC Hydro historically was energy constrained, but now capacity requirements are often driving new resource acquisitions.

32 BC Hydro Long term goal for Reliability of Energy Supply BC Hydro will plan to have sufficient generation capability in BC to be able to meet domestic demand in any given year. BC Hydro will continue to import electricity on a short term basis will do so when it results in a lower cost of energy compared to dispatching domestic resources eg. high gas prices combined with high heat rate for Burrard system will be planned so that imports are not required to meet domestic load 4/15/05 Page 32

36 Transmission Reliability Planning 4/15/05 Page 36

37 WECC/NERC Planning Standards (Revised April 10, 2003) Includes mandatory standards and guidelines that describe good planning practices Requirements are primarily to avoid cascading outages and affecting the control area s neighbour. Minimum operating reliability general system instability, uncontrolled separation, cascading outages, or voltage collapse will not occur as a result of any single contingency or multiple contingency of sufficiently high likelyhood Single contingencies (N-1) should not lead to loss of demand or curtailed firm transfers (although interruptions to local network customers connected to the faulted element may occur) 4/15/05 Page 37

38 WECC Mandatory Operating Reserves Greater of - single contingency - sum of 5% (hydro) and 7% (thermal) of load WECC also sets requirements for spinning reserve BC Hydro is part of Northwest Power Pool, which has a reserve sharing agreement. 4/15/05 Page 38

39 Transmission Planning and IEP BC Hydro gives portfolios to BCTC, who indicate what reinforcements are required to meet N-1 contingency and other stability requirements. Questions? 4/15/05 Page 39

40 Distribution Planning 4/15/05 Page 40

41 Distribution Distribution Reliability is currently undertaken based on historical performance of the distribution system combined with performance targets for improvement or maintenance of current performance. The system performance is measured in terms of frequency and duration of outages including the resulting Customer Hours Lost (CHL) metric. Based on actual performance and economics, Distribution targets areas where frequent, long and high number of customers impacted outages have occurred. 4/15/05 Page 41

42 Distributed Generation and Reliability Distributed Generation may have some benefit in local area and affect CHL metric. This is not measured in our portfolio analysis. Distributed Generation could have some cost savings in Distribution Lines that is not accounted for in our portfolio analysis. May be able to apply general rules of thumb for cost savings. 4/15/05 Page 42

47 Regulatory Review of ROR BCUC will have a review process for ROR BC Hydro expects review to be limited to areas of material difference in views with respect to: types of resources to be included in portfolio analysis quantity of resource available price for various quantities of the resource Differences, if any, will have surfaced and be documented through stakeholder engagement processes (regional workshops, resource options workshops, provincial committee) 4/15/05 Page 47
