THE SOUTHERN REGION GRID
REAL TIME OPERATION ,
SETTLEMENT SYSTEM,
GOVERNANCE
……………….for starters
A little of philosophy
ELECTRICITY




PRODUCED AND CONSUMED AT THE
SAME TIME
CANNOT BE STORED
THE END USER DOES NOT SCHEDULE
HIS USAGE
USE NOW PAY LATER
THE GRID


INTERCONNECTED SYSTEMS WITH
THOUSANDS OF KILOMETERS OF LINES
AND HUNDREDS OF GENERATORS
OPERATING WITH SPLIT SECOND
SYNCHRONISM IS THE GREATEST
SCIENTIFIC ACHIEVEMENT OF THE
MILLENIUM
THE LARGEST SINGLE MACHINE EVER
CREATED
POWER SYSTEM OPERATION
IS IT AN ART?
 IST IT A TECHNOLOGY?
 IS IT SCIENCE?


………. IT IS A MULTI-DISCIPLINARY
SUBJECT!!!
POWER SYSTEM OPERATOR

THE SYSTEM OPERATOR SHOULD
POSSESS THE
DISCIPLINE OF A MONK
 INSTINCTS OF A FOX
 EMOTIONS OF A ROCK
 SKILLS OF A SURGEON
 PATIENCE OF A FLAMINGO


DO YOU HAVE IT IN YOU?
THE POWER SYSTEM
POWER SYSTEM IS A MANIFESTATION
OF SOCIETY
 WE HAVE DONE LOTS OF
“LOAD FLOWS”
 NOW’S THE TIME TO DO
“COST FLOWS”.

CARDINAL RULES FOR A
SYSTEM OPERATOR

UNDERSTAND THE DIFFERENCE
PUBLIC GOODS
 PRIVATE GOODS
 PUBLIC SERVICE
 PRIVATE SERVICE


UNDERSTAND THE DIFFERENCE

PUBLIC HAT AND A PRIVATE HAT
FREQUENCY CONTROL
FREQUENCY IS THE MESSENGER-NOT
THE MESSAGE
 FREQUENCY HAS TO BE
COLLECTIVELY CONTROLLED AND
DEMOCRATICALLY STABILISED

BEHAVIOUR IN AN
INTER-CONNECTED SYSTEM


THE INTER CONNECTED OPERATION IS A
PRECARIOUS ENTERPRISE, RARELY
PERFECT, OFTEN FRAGILE AND SOMETIMES
YOU WONDER IF IT IS WORTH THE
EXPERIENCE
A PRUDENT CONSTITUENT SHOULD TAKE
ACTION IMAGINING THAT HE IS ISLANDED –
THEN THE GRID WILL COME TO HIS
RESCUE
MARGIN AND SURVEILLANCE
MARGIN AND SURVEILLANCE – THE
YIN AND YANG RELATIONSHIP
 LESS MARGIN – MORE SURVEILLANCE
AND VICE VERSA
 ENGINEERING COMPROMISE
 YOU CANNOT DO WITHOUT EITHER

Where next?
A quarter century ago, Dr. R. Buckminster Fuller
proposed interconnecting regional Power
System into a single, continuous worldwide
Electric Energy Grid as a number one solution to
solve many of the world's pressing problems.
While he envisioned creating economical Power
Systems, Fuller also saw power grid as the way
to reduce human suffering, preserve the
environment and make war obsolete. Expanding
power grid has proved to be both economically
and environmentally desirable since the time
zone and seasonal diversity that exist between
adjacent Power Systems can postpone or
eliminate the necessity of building redundant
generation.
