THE NEXT STEP IN MARKET
GRANULARISATION
DEFINITION
Ancillary services are defined as all those
activities on the interconnected grid that
are necessary to support the transmission
of power in maintaining and ensuring
reliable operation and the required
degree of quality and safety.
WHY ANCILLARY SERVICES?







SYSTEM OPERATOR DUTIES
CONTROL THE FREQUENCY OF THE SYSTEM WITHIN
CERTAIN BOUNDS.
CONTROL THE VOLTAGE QUALITY AND PROFILE OF
THE SYSTEM WITHIN CERTAIN BOUNDS
MAINTAIN STABILITY OF THE SYSTEM
PREVENT OVERLOADS IN THE TRANSMISSION SYSTEM
RESTORE THE SYSTEM OR PORTION OF THE SYSTEM
AT THE EARLIEST WHEN REQUIRED.
TRANSPARENCY IN THE SYSTEM



THE INJECTION OR ABSORPTION OF REACTIVE POWER FROM
GENERATORS OR CAPACITORS TO MAINTAIN SYSTEM VOLTAGES
WITHIN REQUIRED RANGES.
REGULATION


THE CONTROL AREA OPERATOR FUNCTIONS THAT SCHEDULE
GENERATION AND TRANSACTIONS AND CONTROL GENERATION IN
REAL-TIME TO MAINTAIN GENERATION/LOAD BALANCE.
THE USE OF GENERATION OR LOAD TO MAINTAIN MINUTE-TOMINUTE GENERATION/LOAD BALANCE WITHIN THE CONTROL
AREA.
LOAD FOLLOWING/ENERGY IMBALANCE

THE USE OF GENERATION TO MEET THE HOUR-TO-HOUR AND
DAILY VARIATIONS IN LOAD

CATEGORY -3


CATEGORY-3: SERVICES NEEDED TO RESTORE
THE SYSTEM AFTER A BLACKOUT
SYSTEM BLACKSTART CAPABILITY

THE ABILITY OF A GENERATING UNIT TO PROCEED
FROM A SHUTDOWN CONDITION TO AN OPERATING
CONDITION WITHOUT ASSISTANCE FROM THE
ELECTRICAL GRID AND THEN TO ENERGIZE THE
GRID TO HELP OTHER UNITS START AFTER A
BLACKOUT OCCURS.

LINKED TO AGC AND FGMO
HIGHER O&M COSTS AND HEAT RATES
COST INCLUDES FIXED COSTS
FIXED COSTS ARE HIGHER SINCE
LIFETIME OF THE UNIT IS LOWERED

PROVIDING ANCILLARY SUPPORT

ANCILLARY SERVICE CAN BE ARRANGED BY



OWNING THE EQUIPMENT NECESSARY TO
PROVIDE THE SERVICE
CONTRACTING WITH THE ANCILLARY
SERVICE PROVIDERS ON A LONG TERM BASIS
CREATING A MARKET FOR SUPPLY OF
SERVICE.
PRICING ANCILLARY SERVICES



COSTS ARE NOT TRIVIAL :- 10% OF ENERGY
CHARGES ARE TOWARDS ANCILLARY SERVICES
IN USA
SIZING HAS TO BE DONE FOR THE GRID BASED
ON REGULATORY REQUIREMENT
RESOURCES HAVE TO BE GROUPED IN
DIFFERENT SERVICES BASED ON HARD DATA :DETERMINING THE SERVICE QUALITY ORDER


CRUCIAL FOR BIDDING
COSTING IS USUALLY ON REPLACEMENT COST,
LOST PROFITS AND OPPORTUNITY COSTS
TYPICAL PRICING IN CALIFORNIA

ABT AND THE ANCILLARY MARKET

CONCEPT OF LOOSE POWER POOL



REACTIVE POWER PRICING MECHANISM IN PLACE FOR THE LOOSE
POWER POOLS


THIS IS FOR THE AREA AS A WHOLE
REACTIVE SUPPORT MAY STILL BE REQUIRED AT VARIOUS BUSES
THIS OPENS UP A MARKET OPPURTUNITY
PRESENTLY MVAR BY GENERATORS ARE NOT COMMERCIALLY
MONITORED
UI MECHANISM PROVIDES A COMPREHENSIVE BALANCING MARKET
AND A PRICING THRESHOLD FOR EMBEDDED ANCILLARY
