• We want to characterize this requirement:
What are we talking about?
3
• We would like to know what kinds of resources are necessary to provide this service (whether a given ensemble suffices)

• For some systems, it may not matter today
• If you have large amounts of fast-ramping hydrogeneration and opportunity costs are small, all you need to know is the size of the excursion
Why does it matter?

A typical assessment

• But the current practice does not capture the requirement very well– Simple statistics do not capture chronology.
The order of requirements matters.– Statistics do not capture critical information
about ramp rates or the required duration of services
– Even statistics on the ramp rates cannot tell you the duration of ramping required
Why does it matter?

The order of events matters

• For some systems, especially those more reliant on thermal resources and those with constrained access to hydrogeneration, it may matter quite a bit– Higher penetration of variable generation resources
(wind and solar)– Greater competition for ancillary services– OPUC Order 12-013, UM 1461, Sec II. D. Integrated

Why does it matter?

• If we expect that the hydro system’s ability to meet imbalance needs will eventually be exhausted, it matters to all systems
• Having a better description of requirements means greater likelihood of finding resources or practices that meet the requirement at lowest cost
• It would help us to see the value of a broader array of solutions
Why does it matter?

Overview

• Increasing “up” requirements only
• All imbalance resources start out at “standby”, without power deployment
First example
13
![Page 14: System Analysis Advisory Committee Sufficiency of Imbalance Reserves and Requirements](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051118/568163c1550346895dd4e260/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Increasing “up” requirement
14
![Page 15: System Analysis Advisory Committee Sufficiency of Imbalance Reserves and Requirements](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051118/568163c1550346895dd4e260/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
• Assume imbalance resource is completely characterized by– Ramp rate (MW/min)– Response duration (min)– Direction (up or down)– Type of control (automatic vs command control)– Frequency of use– Available energy or fuel (MWh)– Value ($/MW, $/MWh)
• I will focus on the first two
First example
15
![Page 16: System Analysis Advisory Committee Sufficiency of Imbalance Reserves and Requirements](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051118/568163c1550346895dd4e260/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Sorting the ramp events
16
• We will call this the Ramping Duration Curve (RDC)
• It tells us how much power we need
![Page 17: System Analysis Advisory Committee Sufficiency of Imbalance Reserves and Requirements](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051118/568163c1550346895dd4e260/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
• If the sufficiency of alternative ramping resources is the issue, then “Yes!”
• Requirements can be described in terms of a minimal ensemble of resources sufficient to meet the requirement
• As long as an ensemble has enough capability or maximum power to provide a ramp rate for the required amount of time, the order of the events is immaterial
Can you do that, sort them?

• Area under the RDC corresponding to each blocks is power = ramp rate x time
You can think of power as imbalance “fuel”

• If we had the ideal resources in hand, we would recognize an asymmetry in substitution: fast response resources can substitute for slow response resources, but not conversely
• How would we figure out whether a resource ensemble other than our ideal ensemble could meet the same need?
Substitution

• Cumulative Ramping Duration Curve (CRDC) is the cumulative power, summing from higher to lower ramp rate
The CRDC
23
![Page 24: System Analysis Advisory Committee Sufficiency of Imbalance Reserves and Requirements](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051118/568163c1550346895dd4e260/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
• The CRDC helps us more easily visualize whether one ensemble can meet the same requirements as another
Supply and Demand CRDCs

• Edges are interpreted as vectors
• Summing vectors adds the power and duration and averages the ramp rates
CRDC math

![Page 27: System Analysis Advisory Committee Sufficiency of Imbalance Reserves and Requirements](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051118/568163c1550346895dd4e260/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
• Points above the supply CRDC correspond to vectors (ramp rates) that the resources cannot achieve
• Each point on the CRDC is the maximum power available in that amount of time
Infeasible ramps

• An increasing response can be sorted by ramp rate
• The CRDC captures substitution of high-ramp rate resources for low-ramp rate resources
• The CRDC has interpretation as maximum available ramp rates attainable by any combination of minimally sufficient resources

• A path is an initial condition (net machine power deployed after recoveries) and a response. There can be many prior responses and recoveries.
• A path captures all of the power recovery practices, back to the beginning on an excursion
Key concept: the “path”
33
![Page 34: System Analysis Advisory Committee Sufficiency of Imbalance Reserves and Requirements](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051118/568163c1550346895dd4e260/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
• Step through path “B” slowly to figure out the initial condition B´ for path “B”
“Snack break” (whew)

Does that really work?

Huh! (There is a proof, too)

• The path union captures ramp requirements with higher rates or greater power requirement at a given ramp rate
• The path union avoids double-counting requirements when recoveries take place
Intuitive argument for the union

• “The imbalance supply is sufficient to meet a system imbalance requirement if and only if the CRDC of supply lies above (weak sense) that of the CRDC of requirements”
The main theorem
47
![Page 48: System Analysis Advisory Committee Sufficiency of Imbalance Reserves and Requirements](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051118/568163c1550346895dd4e260/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
• An increasing response can be sorted by ramp rate
• The CRDC captures substitution of high-ramp rate resources for low-ramp rate resources
• The CRDC has interpretation as maximum available ramp rates attainable by any combination of minimally sufficient resources
Summary

![Page 49: System Analysis Advisory Committee Sufficiency of Imbalance Reserves and Requirements](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051118/568163c1550346895dd4e260/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
• Recoveries are opportunities to restore valuable ramping power
• A path is a response and its initial condition (expressed as power loadings)
• The initial condition of a path captures the effect of all responses and recoveries preceding the path’s response
Summary

• The order in which we evaluate paths makes no difference – any chronological factors are “encoded” in the initial conditions
• The union CRDC reveals only incremental requirements for imbalance resources, that is, only higher ramp rates or higher power requirements at a given ramp rate
• Sufficiency is evaluated by overlaying the union CRDC for requirements with the CRDC for resources
