SCENARIO 2 PRESENTATION345KV ALTERNATIVES ROBERT LONA SENIOR CONSULTANT ERCOT SYSTEM PLANNING
OBJECTIVES • REDUCE OVERALL WIND CURTAILMENT (NEW /EXISTING) TO 2% OR BELOW • DEVELOP 345KV TRANSMISSION ALTERNATIVES ONLY • ALTERNATIVES INCLUDE NEW 345KV TRANSMISSION AND UTILIZATON OF EXISTING TRANSMISSION • UTILIZE SUGGESTED ALTERNATIVES PROVIDED BY TDSP’S
PARAMETER ASSUMPTIONS • UTILIZE LINE PARAMETERS AGREED UPON BY TDSP’S • UTILIZE 3000 MVA LINES RATE A, RATE B • STANDARD 3000 MVA PER MILE LINE IMPEDANCES • SERIES LINE COMPENSATION FOR 345KV LINES > 100 MILES • UTILIZED 800 MVA 345KV AUTOS
PARAMETER ASSUMPTIONS(continued) N-1 SECURE $ 7.0 GAS PRICE 6,903 MW OF BASE WIND WIND 11,552 MW NEW WIND PANHANDLE A , B 5,584 MW NEW WIND CENTRAL 4,110 MW NEW WIND MCCAMEY 1,858 MW NEW WIND ECONOMICS OF NEW TRANSMISSION NOT ANALYZED AT THIS TIME UPLAN DC ANALYSIS ONLY AC ANALYSIS TO FOLLOW

NEW TRANSMISSION BY CREZ ZONES • PANHANDLE 24 – 345KV LINES 5 – 345/138KV AUTOS • MCCAMEY 20 – 345KV CIRCUITS 7 – 345/138KV AUTOS • CENTRAL 9 – 345KV CIRCUITS 0 – 345/138KV AUTOS TOTAL 345KV LINES = 53 TOTAL 345/138KV AUTOS = 12 TOTAL CIRCUIT MILES = 2,936
ALTERNATIVES TO REDUCING WIND CURTAILMENT RECONFIGURE EXISTING WIND TO HIGHER VOLTAGE LEVEL BUILD NEW TRANSMMISION TO RELIEVE CONGESTED ELEMENT/S MODIFY EXISTING TRANSMISSION TO RELIEVE CONGESTED ELEMENT/S MINIMIZE DROP POINTS OF NEW WIND POWER
NEXT STEPS FINALIZE 345KV SOLUTION OR SOLUTIONS FOR SCENARIO 2 DEVELOP TRANSMISSION ALTERNATIVES TO LOWER CURTAILMENT FOR CENTRAL WIND UNITS
