Introduction
California

System Operator
• Reliability tools and market systems depend on the results produced
by the SE
• Monitoring & Analyzing the quality and availability of every SE
solution
• At CAISO, the SE solution is used for Real Time Power Flow and
Contingency Analysis, Real Time Nodal Market, and for Voltage
Stability Analysis.
• In the evaluation of SE readiness,
• Several metrics used by the Midwest ISO (MISO) and Southwest
Power Pool (SPP) were reviewed
• Several new SE performance metrics of the SE solution at the
CAISO have been identified
• The new SE performance metrics are to identify an unreasonable SE
solution even if the solution is valid.
Soumen Ghosh
• Our hope is to set up a framework for all stake holders to work
collectively in identifying a standard set of SE metrics to determine the
quality of the SE solution

Network Model
• EMS Network Model: This includes the detailed system (including subtransmission) for the state of California and for all other WECC areas, the
system is represented for voltage levels at 161 KV and above.
• Market Full Network Model: Detailed Network Model, mostly derived
from the EMS Network Model,
• The power system model for the CAISO footprint,
• Fictitious injections on inter-ties to areas not part of CAISO
markets and
• Commercial data for the market participants (ex: an association
between a set of electrical buses to a specific LMP pricing node)
• CIM/XML Model Format: A common model format that can be used and
understood by different platforms provided by a variety of vendors.

STATE ESTIMATOR
•State Estimation processes telemetered system power measurements to obtain an estimate of ‘State’ - the magnitudes
and phase angles of bus voltages in the actual power systems.
• This calculation is based on the telemetered analog quantities (MW, MVAr, and KV) and the most current topology
of the power system.
• Knowing the state of the power system, it calculates the MW, MVAr, and MVA flows through all the transmission
lines and transformers and the MW and MVAr injections for all the loads and generation sources.
• These calculated voltage and power values provide useful operational information in cases when no telemetry is
available. When valid telemetry does exist, the calculated quantities can be used to identify measurement errors.
REAL TIME LOAD FLOW & CONTINGENCY ANALYSIS
•Real Time Load Flow provides the system operator with grid information like voltage and line flows for different
short-term study conditions.
•Real Time Contingency Analysis provides the system operator with the information on the ‘system state’ for different
‘what if’ conditions on the existing system.
CAISO OUTAGE MODELING TOOL (COMT)
•The COMT application is a Web-based tool which allows the users to search the CAISO Outage database and
identify scheduled outages that impact the network topology. The tool allows the users to develop switching
instructions (based on Network Model components) that need to be automatically applied to the network model at the
appropriate time.
• In the Real-Time COMT is used to update the status of non-telemetered points and the status points with failed
telemetry.

VSA-User Interface, RT/LA
California
Independent
System Operator
System Load Margin: the maximum total real power transferred from source to sink before the system hits
the voltage collapse point under a proposed stress pattern. Interface flow: the power flowing through an
interface flow gate. The Interface Margin is the portion of the total power transferred that flows through the
Interface. If the interface is defined properly in relation to the stress pattern a sizable portion of total power
transferred will flow through the defined interface

Study mode VSA runs as a stand-alone process, which can be launched directly from the workstation as well as from the Viewer.
Study mode VSA can retrieve an archival case from the VSA viewer or a Dispatcher Load Flow case directly from the data bridge.

State Estimation & Real Time Market
Real Time Market
• Real Time Pre Dispatch (RTPD)
• Executes every 15 minutes
• Real Time Interval Dispatch (RTID)
• 5 Minutes dispatches
• RTPD & RTID
• Utilizes the Full Network Model updated
by the real time State Estimator solution
to get the current operating conditions to
initialize the power flow. State Estimator
Solution resides in Enterprise Integration
Bus to be used by RTPD and RTID.

State Estimation & Market
•In the RTM environment the static model is
updated with dynamic data based upon real
time operations that comes from the State
Estimator application which is merged with
commercial Market and Supplemental Market
Data Maintenance (SMDM) system data for the
various Market runs.

Full Network Model
• The static market model from the GDB and the
dynamic model of the power system are
exported from the EMS to the RTM system.
• For the RTM analysis, the State Estimator
solution along with Topology Information from
the EMS is transmitted to the RTM System and
used to initialize the Power Flow.

Conclusion
• Importance of the quality of the information provided by the SE to
the various reliability and market tools
• At the California ISO, the SE solutions are required for (1) The Real
Time Market and for (2) Security Applications such as Voltage Stability
Analysis.
•This paper proposes the formulation of metrics to study the availability
and quality of the SE solution.
