Transmission Planning Summit August 11, 2009 Crown Plaza Hotel New Orleans, LA ISTEP Update
ISTEP 2009 • South Central Arkansas/Northeast Louisiana constraint – to address North to South flows • Central Arkansas constraint – to address South to North flows • Lake Charles 230 kV Loop (relieve 138 kV Flowgate NELLC_NELLCB) • Baton Rouge/South MS constraint – to address Central to South flows • Jackson Area Today’s presentation focuses on preliminary results for projects 1 and 2
Project 1 & 2 Issues2008 Monitored Flowgates - Locations 4 1 5 3 2
Projects 1 & 2Method of Preliminary Study • Replicate the flowgate issues that have occurred in 2008 and determine solutions to mitigate them • Issue not apparent in long-term models • Determine system operation during a known TLR event • Model the system as shown during the event using a day-ahead operational model • Should replicate the flowgate overload issues • Determine system changes to eliminate flowgate issues
Project 1:Southcentral AR / Northeast LA ConstraintBackground • North – South generation bias observed • Affected Flowgates • Sheridan – Eldorado FTLO Etta – McNeil (Flowgate 2) • WhiteBluff-Sheridan FTLO Mabelvale-Sheridan (Flowgate 3) • Mabelvale-Sheridan FTLO White Bluff-Sheridan (Flowgate 4) • Flowgate issues occur during daily off-peak periods of the peak loading season
Project 1:South Central AR / Northeast LA ConstraintModeling and Assumptions • Used July 6, 2008 Operational day-ahead model • TLR curtailment called July 6, 2008 @ 2am • WhiteBluff-Sheridan FTLO Mabelvale-Sheridan (Flowgate 3) • Actual Generation / Load / Transactions used in the model simulation
South Central AR / Northeast LA Constraint Base Flows Base flows for 500kV are North to South
South Central AR / Northeast LA Constraint SHRMAB_KEO (Flowgate 1)
Southcentral AR / Northeast LA Constraint SHRELD_HSPET (Flowgate 2)
South Central AR / Northeast LA Constraint WHBSHE_MABEL (FG3), WBKEO_SHMAB (FG5)
South Central AR / Northeast LA Constraint MABSH_WBSH (Flowgate 4)
Southcentral AR / Northeast LA Constraint Upgrades in the Change Case • Terminal Limiting Equipment Upgrades: • Sheridan-Eldorado 500kV from 1732 to 2546 MVA (FG2) • White Bluff – Sheridan 500 kV from 1732 to 2546 MVA (FG3) • Mabelvale – Sheridan500 kV from 1732 to 2546 MVA (FG4)

Project 2. Central AR ConstraintBackground • Generation Outlet Issue • South to North Flows Observed • Affected Flowgates • Sheridan – Mabelvale FTLO White Bluff – Keo (FG1) • Flowgate issue occurs during daily on-peak periods of off-peak load season 4
Project 2. Central AR ConstraintModeling and Assumptions • Used Dec 21, 2008 Operational day-ahead model • TLR curtailment called Dec 21, 2008 @ 6pm • Sheridan – Mabelvale FTLO White Bluff – Keo (Flowgate 1) • Actual Generation / Load / Transactions used in the model simulation
