Subject : Summary Record of discussions held in the 16th meeting of the Grid Coordination Committee held on 18.01.2017 at 10.30hrs at Eros Hotel, American Plaza, Nehru Place, New Delhi-110019

The list of participants is enclosed as Annexure.

WELCOME Sh. Amal Sinha, CEO, BRPL welcomed the delegates in the 16th meeting of the Grid Coordination Committee (GCC). He outlined the importance of the Grid Coordination Committee as being the Apex Coordination Body of Power Sector in Delhi. He opined that the challenges between the System Operators and other stakeholders in view of the integration of renewable sources in a massive form. As per the Govt. policy, by the year 2022, the renewable capacity likely to be integrated in the sector would be about 175Gigawatts. Delhi alone would be having about 2000MW solar power. The scheduling, variation of vast generation would be a real challenge for the System Operators as well as stakeholders for arrangement of power. He suggested that the experiences of renewable rich states like Gujarat, Rajasthan, Tamilnadu etc. should be acquired for efficient trouble free system operation in Delhi. He further extended thanks for giving opportunity to host the meeting of Apex Coordination Forum of the Power Sector in Delhi.

He further, outlined the need of coordinated efforts to meet the anticipated summer demand of 6600MW. He was quite satisfied that the winter demand has been met successfully almost trouble free manners. However, cautioned about the high voltage problems prevailing in the Grid during the night time even affecting the reliability of power supply. He sought a permanent solution to curb the high voltage issue.

With these remarks, he requested Director (Operations), DTL, the Chairperson of GCC to start the proceedings.

Director (Operations), DTL also welcomed the delegates and advised G.M. (SLDC) to take up the agenda. Accordingly, the agenda was taken up. The gist of the discussions and decisions taken are as under:-

GCC noted. 2. 220/66kV Tx 22 It was informed that the 160 MVA transformer at Kanjhawala 160MVA (previously considered as hot reserve) has been transferred to PPK-I and the 100MVA Tx at PPK-I has been routed to Park street for replacement of the failed 100 MVA transformer. Delhi OCC had advised DTL to start the process for purchase of a new 160MVA Power transformer as hot reserve.

DTL Planning deptt. informed that in the Steering Committee meeting held on 04.01.2017, it has been decided that a new 160MVA Tr. is proposed for Kanjhawala Sub-stn and the same will be treated as hot reserve.

In the Delhi OCC meeting held on 28.02.2017, it was informed that the scheme for new 160MVA Tr. has been prepared and is under approval stage.

The 160MVA Tx. at Kanjhawala shall be used for replacement against damaged 220/66V 100MVA Tx. 3. 220/66kV Tx 42 The 220/66/33kV 100 MVA Tr. dismantled from Pappankalan-I 100MVA Sub-stn will be treated as reserve after its repair.The place of commissioning and charging conditions, i.e. Hot/Cold reserve will be finalized by Planning deptt depending upon availability of space.

Transfor Present Status as on present date S. mation populati N Capacity on in o. nos. 4. 220/33kV 37 It was informed that one no. new 220/33kV, 100MVA Tx, IMP make which Tx was earlier planned to be commissioned at 220kV Patparganj Substation as 100MVA hot reserve is now being diverted to 220kV Sub-stn Geeta colony in view of the failure of 220/33kV, 100MVA Tx, BHEL make at 220kV Sub-stn Geeta colony.

It was informed that one of the 220/33kV, 100 MVA Trs. meant for Karmpura project will be diverted to Patparganj Sub-stn as hot reserve. GCC noted. 5. 66/11kV 24 it was informed that in the Steering Committee meeting held on 04.01.2017, it 20MVA was decided that 66/11kV 20MVA and 33/11kV 16MVA Txs may be Tx. provided by the Discoms as and when required by DTL on loan basis as there 6. 33/11kV 16 is a regulatory embargo in builidng up assets at 11kV level. However, as per 16MVA the Business Plan of DTL, all the outlived transformers are proposed to be Tx. replaced in a time bound manner as under:- a. 66/11kV transformers: Capacity augmentation of 20 MVA transformers to 25 or 31.5 MVA capacity. YoC – Year of Commissioning, AoD – Age as on Date (February 2016) i. Najafgarh: 02 nos  NGEF – 20 MVA – YoC 1995 – 21 yrsAoD – Loading 80 %  CGL – 20 MVA – YoC 1993 – 23 yrsAoD – Loading 80 % ii.

9.2.1 Tightening of CERC has already issued the amended Grid Code to be implemented from 17.02.2014 in which Frequency band the allowable frequency band is 49.90Hz to 50.05Hz. The Deviation Settlement Mechanism has and be brought also been introduced according to the tightening to the frequency band. The main thrust of the very close to amended Grid Code is the utilities should always strict to its scheduled drawal. Further, the 50Hz. following are the main issues:- a) No over drawal by Delhi if frequency is below 49.90Hz. b) No under drawal by Delhi if the frequency is more than 50.05Hz. c) Every (12) time blocks the polarity of drawal should change. In the regular OCC meetings of NRPC, the adherence of the above provisions is monitored. As far as Delhi is concerned, the main violation is occurring in respect of non change of polarity in 12 time blocks.

The details of the violations of Delhi are as under:- Duration 17.02.14 12.05.14 23.06. 28.07.14 25.08.14 29.09.14 01.11.14 to to 14 to to to to to 11.05.14 22.06.14 27.07. 24.08.14 28.09.14 02.11.14 30.11.14 14 Violation of OD – 4 OD – 9 OD – OD – 5 OD – 9 OD-4 OD-2 drawal limit UD-19 UD-24 7 UD-19 UD-1 UD-17 UD-21 150MW if freq UD- >49.7Hz and 30 above Violation of non 405 198 56 116 34 158 135 polarity change of drawal
