SETTING OF TARGETS FOR CONTINUITY OF SUPPLY THROUGH BENCHMARKING DOUGLAS J.A.K. and CASTRO SAYAS F. PB Power Ltd. - United Kingdom
RELIABILITY INDICES The principal reliability indices (SAIFI, SAIDI, CAIDI) and treatment thereto differ between countries: • duration of long interruptions exceeds • 1 minute (Australia, New Zealand) • 3 minutes (Europe – EN50160) • 5 minutes (IEEE P1366–2000) • selective exclusion of categories of interruptions (severe weather, planned interruptions, transmission interruptions)
Exclusions (examples) • Great Britain - Exceptional events (severe weather) may be excluded from penalties under the Information and Incentives Programme (IIP), depending on: • impact of event and its predictability • network design and maintenance and • actions taken by company to deal with the event. • Victoria, Australia • Excludes transmission failures, widespread rare events in calculation of incentive/penalty service term (S).

STATUS OF COMPARISON OF CONTINUITY PERFORMANCE IN GREAT BRITAIN IIP and the Distribution Price Control Review • Ofgem, February 2003, " comparisons of Companies’ performance used to set the targets at the last price control (in 1999) were not sufficiently robust " • Ofgem, April 2003, intends to • review the overall package of output delivery incentives and • undertake a customer survey to inform a review of performance standards and the IIP
Ofgem and Distribution Network Operators (DNOs)Comparing Quality of Supply Working Group • Disaggregates MV circuits by grouping similar MV circuits on the basis of three physical parameters • percentage of overhead line, • circuit length, and • customers per circuit ("customer sparsity") • to identify • key drivers in variance in performance between DNOs and • possible actions for closure of differences in performance between DNOs.
REFERENCE NETWORK MODEL(UMIST) • enables the continuity performance of an MV radial network to be modelled using a number of generic reference circuits • incorporates a process for the disaggregation of a very large number of actual circuits into a limited number of reference circuits, based on key parameters, and • enables benchmarking and target setting and hence the modelling of strategic programmes of improvements to be undertaken in a comprehensive and systematic manner
