1 ERCOT Historic Synchronous Inertia (Kinetic Energy) and Future Projections Julia Matevosyan, PhD Sr. Planning Engineer Resource Adequacy ERCOT

2 Historic Analysis Assumptions Kinetic energy is calculated as a sum of H*MVA of all online synchronous generators on hourly basis; Jan-May, Nov-Dec data for and January-May data for 2014 are included in the analysis; Peak wind penetration hour (i.e. max P wind /P load ) in each year is analyzed in details (load, wind, wind capacity factor)

3 Historic Kinetic Energy Kinetic energy, MWs Installed Capacity, MW 3.4 x ,116 9,452 10,034 10,570 11,066 Max P wind /P load 25.5% 27.4% 29.8% 35.8% 39.4% P wind, MW 6,483 6,772 7,247 8,773 9,699 Capacity Factor 71% 72% 72% 83% 88% P load, MW 25,427 24,745 24,328 24,488 24,617

4 Future Inertia Projection Methodology Expected installed wind capacity in a future year (with SGIA or SGIA&FC) Expected wind capacity in a future year X: P wind capacity Project an hour with highest instantaneous penetration of wind based on historical trends Projected peak wind penetration hour: P wind =CapacityFactor hist *P wind capacity P load = Avg. historical load at wind penetration peaks Penetration = P load /P wind Net Load=P load P wind Project system inertia for this hour, based on historical inertia trendline Synchronous inertia at projected wind penetration peak: SI = a*net Load +b

7 Frequency deviation after 2750 MW trip (in 0.5 s)

8 Additional metrics Maximum permissible RoCoF, Hz/s: based on frequency deviation to under-frequency load shed (UFLS) and time until first fast frequency response (FFR) in a system is fully deployed (e.g. 0.5 seconds for Responsive Reserve provided by Loads in ERCOT). RoCoF max =Δf UFLS /t FFR, From this metric based on largest contingency and load damping constant, minimum inertia requirement can be calculated for a system. Hz/MW metric: this is frequency nadir per MW generation trip, this metric does not only consider inertia but also includes governor response, load damping and fast frequency response. This metric can be tracked based on historic events and projected for the future (in use in ERCOT).

18 Option 1 CAISO s determination of flexible capacity for future years NREL s 2005 VERs profiles were used to develop the wind profiles and Clean Power data was used to develop the solar profiles Obtain the latest PTOs assumption of VERs build-out and CPUCs RPS calculator Calculate 1-minute net-load Load Use minute actual load data Wind Develop 1-minute wind production profiles for CREZs based on their geographic location using NREL s 2005 wind profiles Solar installation Develop 1-minute solar production profiles for CREZs based on their geographic location and technology using NREL s 2005 solar profiles (i.e. solar thermal, solar PV tracking & solar PV fixed) Aggregate all new solar 1-minute production data by technology New CREZs does not have the load/solar correlation but the maximum 3-hour ramps during the non-summer months are highly influenced by sunset which is consistent with existing solar data Slide 5

19 Option 2 - The monthly flexibility capacity requirement is calculated using the most recent full year of the CAISO s load, wind, and solar 1-minute data Use 2013 actual CAISO s load, wind and solar 1-minute data For new VERs installation, use NREL s simulated production data for CREZs located in close geographic proximity to develop minuteby-minute production profiles Solar profiles were created using both technology type and location of the new resources Generate net-load profiles for 2020 Generate 1-minute load profiles for 2020 Generate 1-minute solar profiles for 2020 Generate 1-minute wind profiles for 2020 Slide 6

20 Option 2 - Wind growth assumptions Use actual 1-minute wind production data for the most recent year e.g actual 1-minute data was used to build minute data 1-minute wind profiles for projects installed in 2020 were created using 2013 actual data for the months the projects were not inservice (i.e. profiles for projects installed in May 2013 were created for January through April) Wind 1-minute profiles for 2020 were created by scaling the 1- minute wind data for 2013 based on installed capacity 2020 W 1-min = 2013W Actual_1-min * 2020W Installed Capacity /2013W Installed Capacity Slide 7

21 Option 2 - Solar growth assumptions Existing solar Use actual solar 1-minute production data for the most recent year (e.g actual 1-minute solar data was used to develop 2020 profile 1-minute solar profiles for projects installed in 2013 were created for the months the projects were not in-service using 2013 actual solar data New solar installation Develop 1-minute solar production profiles for CREZs based on their geographic location and technology using NREL s 2005 solar profiles (i.e. solar thermal, solar PV tracking & solar PV fixed) Aggregate all new solar 1-minute production data by technology New CREZs does not have the load/solar correlation but the maximum 3-hour ramps during the non-summer months are highly influenced by sunset which is consistent with existing solar data Sum the actual 1-minute existing solar production data with the aggregated simulated solar data for new installation Total solar min = 2013 Actual_1-min Simulated_1-min data Slide 8
