REFITTING STRATEGY FOR ROMANIAN POWER SYSTEM SUBSTATIONS. National Power Grid Company TRANSELECTRICA S.A. – ROMANIA Joint-Stock, 100% state-owned company Operating according to Transmission and System Operator Licenses and Transmission Grid Code
E N D
REFITTING STRATEGY FOR ROMANIAN POWER SYSTEM SUBSTATIONS National Power Grid Company TRANSELECTRICA S.A. – ROMANIA • Joint-Stock, 100% state-owned company • Operating according to Transmission and System Operator Licenses and Transmission Grid Code • Founded further to Government Decision 627/2000 by splitting former National Electricity Company (CONEL) into 4 separate legal entities • 76 substations (voltage levels of 750kV, 400kV, 220kV and 110kV)
REFITTING STRATEGY FOR ROMANIAN POWER SYSTEM SUBSTATIONS • Mission: • granting third party regulated access to Transmission Power Grid • safe and cost-effective operation within an encreasing competitive market economy • Target: - hub of electricity transmission in S-E Europe • interconnection to UCTE of Romanian Power System • transboundary electricity connections on the regional market

REFITTING STRATEGY FOR ROMANIAN POWER SYSTEM SUBSTATIONS THE NEED FOR SUBSTATIONS REFITTING • Technological development of primary and auxiliary equipmet using state-of-the-art technology • Exceeded operational life and current condition of the equipment • Necessity of increasing the computerised degree of operation, maintenance, supervision of technological electrical systems
REFITTING STRATEGY FOR ROMANIAN POWER SYSTEM SUBSTATIONS REFITTING METHODS APPLIED (technical matters) Principles • Reconsidering the single line diagrams of the substations in terms of : • structural changes occurring in the related industrial environment • interconnection priorities to UCTE’s power systems • reliability of the new equipment (allowing the simplification of the connections diagram) (CONTINUED)
REFITTING STRATEGY FOR ROMANIAN POWER SYSTEM SUBSTATIONS REFITTING METHODS APPLIED (technical matters) Principles • Replacing the primary and control-protection equipment at de-centralised level • Reconsidering the substation control concept at the 21stcentury’s technological level for the so-called ‘next generation control’ • Remaking the auxiliary services systems in agreement with the new requirements from the norms and to a performance level (CONTINUED)
REFITTING STRATEGY FOR ROMANIAN POWER SYSTEM SUBSTATIONS REFITTING METHODS APPLIED (technical matters) Principles • Remaking the construction part and the cables system • Minimaizing of the impact upon the national power system reliability • Minimizing of impact upon environment
REFITTING STRATEGY FOR ROMANIAN POWER SYSTEM SUBSTATIONS GATHERED EXPERIENCE with refitting/extending the electrical substations Portile de Fier, Tantareni, Urechesti, Arad, Mintia • ‘turn-key project’ • harmonising the Romanian norms and standards to the suppliers’ • legislation and equipment solutions • unity of technical solutions of a project • simplifying of the substation one-line diagram • finding and applying proper financing schemes
REFITTING STRATEGY FOR ROMANIAN POWER SYSTEM SUBSTATIONS GATHERED EXPERIENCE with refitting/extending the electrical substations Portile de Fier, Tantareni, Urechesti, Arad, Mintia • applying the legislation of quality assurance environmental protection and installation security • supervising the project development using a dedicated software • ensuring of balanced geographical coverage
REFITTING STRATEGY FOR ROMANIAN POWER SYSTEM SUBSTATIONS CRITERIA FOR SUBSTATION REFITTING HIERARCHY – BASE OF RELIABILITY & IMPORTANCE METHOD • The physical wear and the obsolescence of the technological electric installations that determine their technical condition • The importance of the substations for the safe operation of the NPS • The electricity transmitted yearly through the substations • The economic-financial criteria • Synchronous and asynchronous interconnection to the neighbouring electric power systems
