[Legacy Report] Distinguished Lecture on " Applications of Dynamic Ratings in Real-Time Operation of the grid" by Prof NDR Sarma
Electric Reliability Council of Texas, Inc. (ERCOT) functions as the “independent organization” certified by the Public Utility Commission of Texas and is responsible for ensuring the reliability and adequacy of the regional electrical network and ensuring that electricity production and delivery are accurately accounted for among the generators and wholesale buyers and sellers in the ERCOT Region. To support its operations, ERCOT has multiple systems which include Energy Management System (EMS) and Market Managements System (MMS). In EMS there are several application functions running both in real-time and in study mode. The real-time applications include State Estimator, Contingency Analysis (CA) and Dynamic Stability Analysis tools.In addition to State Estimator (SE), Real-Time Contingency Analysis (RTCA)is playing a key role in ERCOT energy and market management system, to ensure that the system is operating reliably both in the base case and for different contingencies. This talk explains Real-Time Contingency Analysis function that is typically used in any control centers. It discusses how remedial action plans and schemes are handled in contingency analysis and how congestion is managed by the operators in the control center.There are several enhancements done to basic this RTCA tool to provide more information to the operators. This talk discusses those enhancements that are done at ERCOT’s Control Center.
