  • Operating Reserves
    TECHNICAL AND MARKET ISSUES FOR OPERATING RESERVES Eric Hirst and Brendan Kirby Consulting in Electric-Industry Restructuring Oak Ridge, Tennessee October 19, 1998 INTRODUCTION Ancillary services matter! That’s the key lesson to learn from the problems faced by the California Independent System Operator (ISO) during the summer of 1998. And California will not be alone. Unless ISO New England changes its market rules, it, too, will face serious problems in the acquisition, pricing, and costs of ancillary services. These problems arose (and will continue to occur) because the electricity industry as a whole does not yet recognize the technical and market importance of ancillary services. These services are, like transmission, essential for both reliability and commercial functions. Because most of these services are provided by the same pieces of equipment (generators) that produce energy, the energy and ancillary services markets are tightly coupled. Problems in one market will, unavoidably, cause problems in other markets. Poorly designed rules can amplify the problems from one market to the next. This paper uses operating reserves as an example to illustrate these issues, problems, and possible solutions. Electricity is the ultimate “real-time” product, with its production, transportation, and consumption occurring within a fraction of a second. Because electricity moves at nearly the speed of light and cannot be readily stored, bulk-power systems must maintain a continuous and near-instantaneous balance between production and consumption. Operating reserves are the ancillary services that maintain this balance when a major generator or transmission line unexpectedly fails. DEFINITION The utility industry understands well the technical requirements for operating reserves because the service has been an important part of operating power systems for decades (Hirst and Kirby 1997 and 1998).

  • ID #2013 005R, Operating Reserve
    Information Document Operating Reserve ID #2013-005R Information Documents are not authoritative. Information Documents are for information purposes only and are intended to provide guidance. In the event of any discrepancy between an information document and any authoritative document1 in effect, the authoritative document governs. 1 Purpose This information document relates to the following authoritative documents: • Section 205.1 of the ISO rules, Offers for Operating Reserve; • Section 205.2 of the ISO rules, Issuing Dispatches for Operating Reserve; • Section 205.3 of the ISO rules, Restatements for Operating Reserve (“Section 205.3”); • Section 205.4 of the ISO rules, Regulating Reserve Technical Requirements and Performance Standards (“Section 205.4”); • Section 205.5 of the ISO rules, Spinning Reserve Technical Requirements and Performance Standards (“Section 205.5”); • Section 205.6 of the ISO rules, Supplemental Reserve Technical Requirements and Performance Standards (“Section 205.6”); and • Section 302.1 of the ISO rules, ISO Directives (“Section 302.1”). The purpose of this information document is to assist market participants in understanding the operating reserve market. This information document is likely of most interest to market participants who currently provide or may in the future provide operating reserve. 2 Operating Reserve Operating reserve acts as a safety net, making extra power available to help balance the supply of, and demand for, electricity in real time and stabilizing and protecting the interconnected electric system in the event of unforeseen problems. There are two types of operating reserve: regulating reserve and contingency reserve. Each type of operating reserve performs a unique function and has unique technical requirements.

  • Strategies for Provision of Secondary Reserve Capacity to Balance Short-Term Fluctuations of Variable Renewable Energy
    Strategies for Provision of Secondary Reserve Capacity to Balance Short-Term Fluctuations of Variable Renewable Energy David-Constantin Radu Master of Science Thesis KTH School of Industrial Engineering and Management Energy Technology EGI_2017-0073-MSC EKV1199 Division of Heat & Power SE-100 44, STOCKHOLM Master of Science Thesis EGI_2017-0073-MSC EKV1199 Strategies for Provision of Secondary Reserve Capacity to Balance Short-Term Fluctuations of Variable Renewable Energy David-Constantin Radu Approved Examiner Supervisor 2017-09-18 Miroslav Petrov -KTH/ITM/EGI Miroslav Petrov Commissioner Contact person Energynautics GmbH Eckehard Tröster Peter-Philipp Schierhorn Abstract Recent trends and projections show a massive shift in power generation towards variable renewable energy (VRE), especially wind and solar PV. Renewable energy technologies are expected, in the upcoming decades, to become the primary source of electricity production and this will attract inherent design and operational challenges of power systems. One such challenge is posed by the ability of power systems to cope with short-term fluctuations, or intermittency, of variable renewable energy technologies. Strategies linked to this issue are related to the use of one specific subset of power system ancillary services, namely the active power control mechanism, responsible for the activation of primary, secondary and tertiary or reserves. The scope of this thesis is to develop and present a methodology that comes as solution to sizing and allocation of secondary reserves. The first part of the thesis (i.e. dimensioning of system-wide secondary reserve requirement) is based on high-resolution load and VRE generation time series. Input data is processed to represent more accurately the challenges secondary control has to cope with; and statistically analyzed according to predefined security-of-supply levels.

  • Electricity Ancillary Services Primer
    Electricity Ancillary Services Primer AUGUST 2017 REISHUS CONSULTING LLC PREPARED ON BEHALF OF THE NEW ENGLAND STATES COMMITTEE ON ELECTRICITY (NESCOE) Executive Summary and Observations – Electricity Ancillary Services Primer (August 2017) The electric power grid is a complex system. Operators of power grids use a set of tools collectively referred to as “ancillary services” to keep the system precisely in balance between supply and demand in real time. For example, one type of ancillary services is “operating reserve,” which represents excess power generation that could be made available within a few seconds or minutes to correct any imbalance that may unexpectedly arise over the course of a day. Additionally, operators use other ancillary service mechanisms to support frequency and voltage at specific levels to stabilize the grid. The New England grid operator, ISO New England (ISO-NE), makes use of several ancillary service products, including operating reserves at both the 10- and 30-minute levels and frequency response mechanisms. In 2016, the cost to consumers in the region for these reliability mechanisms1 was in total about $131 million, or less than 2% of the total cost of the wholesale market that includes energy and capacity payments. As the power system evolves to include more renewables in the supply mix, some stakeholders have questioned the potential impact that intermittent generation, such as solar and wind, might have on the reliability of the grid. Conventional generators that possess inherent reliability characteristics are retiring, and variations in short-term supply from intermittent resources will likely increase as more wind and solar is developed.
