Development of Load Despatch Centres
• Initial stages
– a telephone/hotline communication system and a frequency
meter
– Operational only during day-time
– Acted mainly as an information centre
• State grid interconnections
– 24x7 operation
– Rudimentary data acquisition systems
• Central Sector generating stations
– Interstate scheduling and energy accounting
• Regional Grid formation & CTU
– Modernization of control centres
• Availability Based Tariff
– 15-minute scheduling, metering settlement
– Market operation
Modernization of Control Centres
• 33 SLDCs, 5 RLDCs, 1 NLDC
• Round-the-clock manning
• Wideband speech and data communication
• Fish as well as bird eye view through SCADA
• Common database in SLDC/RLDC
• Common Information Model (CIM) in NLDC
• Classical data presentation plus alarm
processing, exception lists, animation,
geographical displays
• Multilayering, Trending
• SoE and replay
Jurisdiction of Load Despatch Centers
NLDC:
Apex body to ensure integrated
operation of National Power System
RLDC:
Apex body to ensure integrated
operation of power system in the
concerned region
5
SLDC:
Apex body to ensure integrated
31 operation of power system in a state
Jurisdiction of RLDCs/SLDCs
• Control Area
• Scheduling Responsibilities
– RLDCs
• State as a whole
• ISGS /UMPPs,
• Pvt. Generating Stations > 1000 MW and
having > 50% share of state outside home state

Functions of Load Dispatch Centers
– Optimum scheduling and dispatch of
electricity
– Monitoring of operations and grid security
– Keeping accounts of the quantity of electricity
transmitted through the regional grid
– Supervision and control over the transmission
system
– Real time operations for grid control
– Dispatch of electricity through secure and
economic operation of in accordance with the
Grid Standards and the Grid Code

Transmission Capacity vs Transfer Capability
Transmission Capacity Transfer Capability
1 Is a physical property in isolation Is a collective behaviour of a system
2 Depends on design only Depends on design, topology, system
conditions, accuracy of assumptions
3 Deterministic Probabilistic
4 Constant under a set of conditions Always varying
5 Time independent Time dependent
6 Non-directional Directional
7 Determined directly by design Estimated indirectly using simulation
models
8 Declared by designer/ manufacturer Declared by the Grid Operator
9 Understood by all Frequently misunderstood
10 Considered unambiguous & sacrosanct Subject to close scrutiny by all
stakeholders

Growing Confidence in Open Access Market - Increasing Market Players
Power Exchange in India
• Salient Features
– Multiple exchanges – Competition amongst
Exchanges
• Indian Energy Exchange (IEX)
• Power Exchange of India (PXI)
• Third Power Exchange in the offing:
– Voluntary participation
– Double sided bidding
– Uniform pricing
– Day-ahead exchange
– Hourly bids
– Congestion management by market splitting
Daily Energy Traded on PX
Increasing Participation on PX
Open Access: Key Success Factors
• Developed in consultation with all stake holders
• Control area demarcation & boundary metering
• Robust transmission system
• Assessment of Transfer Capability
• Balancing mechanism
• Methodology for transmission charge sharing
• Treatment of transmission losses
• Streamlined scheduling and settlement mechanism
• Transparency and non-discriminatory implementation
• Compliance
• Dispute redressal mechanism
• Congestion management
Transmission Congestion
• Characteristics of a growing power system
• Sign of optimum investment
• If managed and documented
– Gives signals for future investments
• If unmanaged
– A pain
– Threat to grid security
– May lead to social and economic loss
– Situation gets acute in Northern Region due to
indiscriminate overdrawal

SITUATIONAL AWARENESS
Expectations
• Focus on reliability of the physical system
• Designing markets that complement reliability
• Appreciation of System Operation as an important
function
– Allocation of resources
– Automation
– Capacity building
• Grid security comes before Economics
– No economic theory, no legislation, no regulation can
repeal the Laws of Physics
“Power markets are the only markets that can suffer a catastrophic instability that
develops in less than a second...The extent and speed of the required
coordination are unparalleled.” ….Steven Stoft
Building up the Immune System
