Agenda
Introduction to Invenergy
Challenges for Portfolio of Renewables
Functionality Criteria and Situation Motivations
Implementation of Situational Awareness Solution
Realized Benefits and Forward Impacts
-
Who is Invenergy Developed 7,100 MWs of utility-scale renewable and natural gas-
fueled power generation facilities in the US, Canada and Europe
Operates 3,150 MWs of Wind Renewables in North America
28 Wind Sites representing ~2,000 Turbines
-
Where is Invenergy
• Sites Located in
15 States, 2
Canadian
Provinces and
Europe
• Headquartered
in Chicago Ill
• Participates in ERCOT, PJM, BPA, MISO, WECC, NYISO,
IESO, and Hydro Quebec
-
Who Invenergy is …Tomorrow
Exploring international development
opportunities in Japan, Mexico, UK and
more
Increasing integration of solar and natural
gas assets into the generation portfolio
Rapid growth of the wind fleet
-
Distinctive Considerations
Key Considerations & Constraints
Monitoring and Control Responsibilities
Site Control
Turbine Control
Operation includes ability to remotely Open Breakers as well
as Reset Turbines
Connection standards with each Market Operator (ERCOT,
PJM, WECC, MISO, NYISO, IESO, Hydro Quebec)
Operations Centralized for diverse geographic
regions
-
Change Drivers
The motivation for the change was to bring all Monitor and Control functions in-house at Invenergy
Standardization of Operation
Discontinuing 3rd party services
Retiring all equipment which vendors no longer support
Transitioning original portfolio
Portfolio expansion
Uniform supportability
System environments arrangement (Dev / Test, DR, Prod) Functionality Migrations, Site Additions and Redundancy)
-
Issues to Overcome
Piece by Piece - Not a conglomerate, started small and grew
site by site
Unique Boutique -Too many dissimilar systems making it
difficult to centralize
Expiration Date- Legacy Custom Systems with expired
Support
Looking Forward - Desired Standardization, Continuity,
Similarity…
