3.1 Connectivity Applications received in the vicinity of Bhuj :

Earlier, 7 nos. of connectivity applications were received at Bhuj P.S. for a quantum

of 2400MW [Connectivity Granted: 1 No. (for 300MW); connectivity Under Process

as per main agenda: 6 Nos. (for 2100MW)]. Now, 4 nos of new connectivity

applications (for 2550MW) have been received at Bhuj PS as given in table 3 above

(Sl. 1 to 4). Accordingly, total quantum of connectivity applications received till date

at Bhuj P.S. is 4950MW.

In the main agenda of the meeting circulated vide letter dated 30.09.2016, there was

only one applicant (connectivity quantum: 500MW) in Khavda, in the vicinity of Bhuj

PS. Accordingly, connectivity to the same was proposed at 220kV level at Bhuj PS.

However, now 2 more applications of quantum 1750MW in Khavda area have been

received. Therefore, it is prudent to optimise the connectivity system for all the three

applications together. Accordingly, the proposal at item 2.2 is partially amended for

M/s AGEL in Khavda area.

With 3 applications in Khavda area, the total power pooled shall be of the order of

2250MW. Therefore, it is now proposed to establish a common pooling station at

Khavda for providing connectivity to the applicants.

Considering the above as well as project capacity and proximity of the RE

generations to Bhuj PS, following transmission system is proposed for connectivity:

Grand Total 2750 - - 2550 200 -

As can be seen from Table 7 above, the total LTA quantum of 2750MW [2550MW

Target to NR and 200MW Target to ER] will be injected at Bhuj P.S. The high

capacity Green Energy Corridor starting from Bhuj PS (WR) to Moga (NR) is already

under implementation by POWERGRID for evacuation and dispersal of power from

renewable generations coming up in Gujarat (especially Kutch complex) and

Rajasthan.

System studies considering the above transfer of power to NR & ER have been

carried out. Study results are attached at Annexure – III. From the studies, following

is observed:

Bhachau – Versana 400kV D/c line grossly violates N-1 criteria (about

1475MW under N-1 outage)

Mundra UMPP – Bhachau 2xD/c (triple) line gets critically loaded and loading

reaches upto about 1200MW under N-1 outage

In order to relieve loading on the above lines, following is proposed:

LILO of EPGL – Bhachau 400kV D/c (triple) line at Halvad S/s (or Shapar S/s)

as proposed in the item no. 11 (Alternative utilization of Essar Power Gujarat

Ltd (EPGL) - Bhachau 400kV D/c (Triple) line of POWERGRID) of the 41st

WR SCM agenda.

Establishment of 2x500MVA, 400/220kV S/s at Bhachunda and Bhuj P.S. –

Bhachunda – Varsana 400kV D/c line under implementation by GETCO may

be expedited

Study results indicate that with the above measures, loading on Bhachau –

Varsana 400kV D/c line gets relieved significantly. Further, loading of Mundra

UMPP – Bhachau 2xD/c (triple) line also gets relieved to some extent and loading

reaches upto about 1000MW under N-1 outage.

Accordingly, transmission system for LTA of each of the above applicants is as

mentioned below:

Common Transmission System for LTA to ER & NR for IWISL-Dayapar

(500MW) wind farm

Installation of 2x500MVA, 400/220kV ICT at Bhuj P.S.*

The above LTA applications seeking power transfer to NR shall also be

discussed in the meeting of NR constituents for Connecticity/LTA applications so

that additional system strengthening requirement in NR (if any) may be identified.

5. Termination of Dedicated connectivity lines at ISTS substation using Multi-

circuit towers

a. RE generations proposed to be pooled at Bhuj P.S.

In view of large RE potential in the vicinity of Bhuj P.S. and in anticipation of more

connectivity applications to be received at Bhuj P.S., it is necessary to consider space

optimisation towards entry into Bhuj P.S. Accordingly, it is proposed that transmission

towers, upto 2km. periphery from Bhuj P.S., used for termination of dedicated

connectivity lines of RE generations may be of multi-circuit type and the generation

developers who would share the M/C towers (as per GPS coordinates of RE

generations) are as tabulated below:

*Based on GPS coordinates of the two RE projects, it is observed that most of the ROW upto

Bhuj P.S of M/s IWISL-Dayapar (500MW) and M/s WWIL-Walka Mota (500MW) is common for

dedicated connectivity lines of wind farms. Accordingly, the common portion of transmission line

(starting from wind farm of M/s WWIL) may be built using Multi-circuit tower (such that it can

accommodate 220kV D/c line of M/s IWISL-Dayapar as well as 220kV D/c line of M/s WWIL-

Walka Mota). Alternatively, the dedicated connectivity lines of both the RE projects may be built

individually and Multi-circuit towers shall then be used for termination into Bhuj P.S. (upto 2km

periphery from Bhuj P.S).

b. RE generations proposed to be pooled at Lakadia P.S.

In view of large RE potential in the vicinity of Lakadia P.S. and in anticipation of more

connectivity applications to be received at Lakadia P.S., it is necessary to consider

space optimisation towards entry into Lakadia P.S. Accordingly, it is proposed that

transmission towers, upto 2km. periphery from Bhuj P.S., used for termination of

dedicated connectivity lines of RE generations may be of double-circuit type and the

generation developers who would share the D/C towers (as per GPS coordinates of RE
