1 PJM Generator Interconnection #P11 Kewanee 138 kv Facilities Study Report Revised April 14, 2011 Docs #594165v3 Page 1

2 A. FACILITIES STUDY INTRODUCTION 1. PROJECT DESCRIPTION The developer, Bishop Hill, LLC (Interconnection Customer) has proposed the construction and interconnection of the TSS 943 Bishop Hill wind farm generation consisting of 200MW of wind generation with 20% (40MW) capacity. This proposed wind farm located near the town of Bishop Hill in Henry County, Illinois, will interconnect with ComEd 138kV TSS 74 Kewanee substation and consist of an approximately twenty eight (28) mile 138kV generator lead and 134 (one hundred thirty four), 1.5MW GE SLE wind turbine generators. The wind farm will be interconnected to the 138kV South Transfer Bus (S. T-Bus) of TSS 74 Kewanee substation which will be redesignated as Bus #2, utilizing old L.0324 breaker position, as shown in Attachment #1. 2. AMENDMENTS TO THE IMPACT STUDY DATA OR IMPACT STUDY RESULTS 2.1 Replacement of overdutied circuit breaker of 138kV L.7411 at TSS 74 Kewanee substation The impact study indicates the replacement of overdutied circuit breaker of 138kV L.7411 at TSS 74 Kewanee substation as it is rated to interrupting capacity of 13.6kA. It has been verified by ComEd in the field that the existing circuit breaker is rated for interrupting capacity of 5000MVA and is not required to be replaced. 2.2 Change of line number The impact study report describes the replacement of 138kV L.7408 circuit breaker at TSS 74 Kewanee substation assuming completion of project #O29. In this facility study report, the completion of project #O29 is not assumed complete and therefore, L is still identified as L at TSS 74 Kewanee. 2.3 Impact on MISO The results of a cross border study are attached as Attachment 2. In addition to upgrades identified in this report, an upgrade to the Ameren owned portion of the Kewanee bus tie (CB 105 and associated disconnect switches) will be required. The ComEd-owned Kewanee 138kV Main Bus to the Ameren Illinois-owned Kewanee 138kV circuit breaker #105 and series equipment loads to MVA for the Line fault with breaker failure at Nelson. Ameren Illinois reports their ratings for this tie as 275MVA normal and 287 MVA emergency. The proposed upgrade will result in a rating of 478 MVA normal and emergency due to switches. This upgrade will be required upon the Initial Operation of all three of the following PJM Queued Projects: O09, O29, and P11. Subsequently queued projects that also contribute to this overload are P37, Q39, and Q60. Ameren has requested a Facilities Study for this work, and PJM will coordinate with the IC, Ameren, and the Midwest ISO in accordance with paragraph of the Joint Operating Agreement. See Attachment 6 for additional details. Upon completion of the Facilities Study, the IC shall execute, potentially with other parties contributing to these same overloads, an Upgrade Construction Service Agreement or similar document with the Affected System Operator in accord with paragraph of the PJM Open Access Transmission Tariff. The financial responsibility of each project towards each upgrade identified in Attachment 2 assumes all of the identified contributors remain in the queue. If any should withdraw, the allocation to the remainder, as well as the need for the upgrade itself will be reevaluated. 2.4 Stability Study & Low Voltage Ride Through Report Page 2

3 No stability issues have been identified and the proposed installation is in compliance with the low voltage ride through requirements in accordance with FERC Order 661-A. See Siemens PTI Report No. R26-09 for additional information. 2.5 The voltage collapse condition resulting from a fault on 138kV line with a failed breaker at Nelson TSS 155 identified in the Impact Study can be mitigated by the installation of GE WindControl controls. The installation of a series breaker in the Line at Nelson is not required. 3.

30 PJM Generator Interconnection #P11 Kewanee 138 kv Facilities Study Report April 2011 Page 1

31 A. FACILITIES STUDY INTRODUCTION 1. PROJECT DESCRIPTION The developer, Bishop Hill, LLC (Interconnection Customer) has proposed the construction and interconnection of the TSS 943 Bishop Hill wind farm generation consisting of 200MW of wind generation with 20% (40MW) capacity. This proposed wind farm located near the town of Bishop Hill in Henry County, Illinois, will interconnect with ComEd 138kV TSS 74 Kewanee substation and consist of an approximately twenty eight (28) mile 138kV generator lead and 134 (one hundred thirty four), 1.5MW GE SLE wind turbine generators. The wind farm will be interconnected to the 138kV South Transfer Bus (S. T-Bus) of TSS 74 Kewanee substation which will be redesignated as Bus #2, utilizing old L.0324 breaker position, as shown in Attachment #1. 2. AMENDMENTS TO THE IMPACT STUDY DATA OR IMPACT STUDY RESULTS 2.1 Replacement of overdutied circuit breaker of 138kV L.7411 at TSS 74 Kewanee substation The impact study indicates the replacement of overdutied circuit breaker of 138kV L.7411 at TSS 74 Kewanee substation as it is rated to interrupting capacity of 13.6kA. It has been verified by ComEd in the field that the existing circuit breaker is rated for interrupting capacity of 5000MVA and is not required to be replaced. 2.2 Change of line number The impact study report describes the replacement of 138kV L.7408 circuit breaker at TSS 74 Kewanee substation assuming completion of project #O29. In this facility study report, the completion of project #O29 is not assumed complete and therefore, L is still identified as L at TSS 74 Kewanee. 2.3 Impact on MISO The results of a cross border study are attached as Attachment 2. In addition to upgrades identified in this report, an upgrade to the Ameren owned portion of the Kewanee bus tie (CB 105 and associated disconnect switches) will be required. The ComEd-owned Kewanee 138kV Main Bus to the Ameren Illinois-owned Kewanee 138kV circuit breaker #105 and series equipment loads to MVA for the Line fault with breaker failure at Nelson. Ameren Illinois reports their ratings for this tie as 275MVA normal and 287 MVA emergency. The proposed upgrade will result in a rating of 478 MVA normal and emergency due to switches. This upgrade will be required upon the Initial Operation of all three of the following PJM Queued Projects: O09, O29, and P11. Subsequently queued projects that also contribute to this overload are P37, Q39, and Q60. Ameren has requested a Facilities Study for this work, and PJM will coordinate with the IC, Ameren, and the Midwest ISO in accordance with paragraph of the Joint Operating Agreement. See Attachment 6 for additional details. Upon completion of the Facilities Study, the IC shall execute, potentially with other parties contributing to these same overloads, an Upgrade Construction Service Agreement or similar document with the Affected System Operator in accord with paragraph of the PJM Open Access Transmission Tariff. The financial responsibility of each project towards each upgrade identified in Attachment 2 assumes all of the identified contributors remain in the queue. If any should withdraw, the allocation to the remainder, as well as the need for the upgrade itself will be reevaluated. 2.4 Stability Study & Low Voltage Ride Through Report Page 2

32 No stability issues have been identified and the proposed installation is in compliance with the low voltage ride through requirements in accordance with FERC Order 661-A. See Siemens PTI Report No. R26-09 for additional information. 2.5 The voltage collapse condition resulting from a fault on 138kV line with a failed breaker at Nelson TSS 155 identified in the Impact Study can be mitigated by the installation of GE WindControl controls. The installation of a series breaker in the Line at Nelson is not required. 3.

41 PJM P Queue Analysis: Impact on MISO Facilities In analyzing the impacts of the PJM P queue Interconnection Requests, previously developed cases for PJM O queue studies were used as basecases. The following changes were made to these cases: 1) All MISO queue generators from MISO DPP4IL case queued before PJM P queue closing date (1/31/2006) and after O queue closing date (7/31/2005) were added to study cases. List of added projects is represented in Table I. Table I - MISO Projects added to basecases ALTW G538 8/8/2005 ALTW G540 9/1/2005 AMIL G545 9/7/2005 WEC G546 9/10/2005 ALTW G548 9/17/2005 R23 9/17/2005 GRE G549 9/21/2005 ALTW G551 9/27/2005 OTP G555 10/24/2005 AMIL G569 11/11/2005 ALTW G573 12/9/2005 ALTW G574 12/9/2005 ALTW G575 12/9/2005 ALTW G577 12/19/2005 AMMO G578 12/20/2005 R25 12/22/2005 XEL (NSP) G586 12/30/2005 XEL (NSP) G587 12/30/2005 WPS G590 1/23/2006 2) Two cases were developed a. PJM Wind at 20% - PJM O and P queue generation was modeled online and the wind generation was dispatched at 20% to all PJM areas. b. PJM Wind at 100% - PJM O and P queue generations was modeled online and was dispatched at 100% irrespective of the fuel type to all PJM areas.

Re-sagging 2.88 miles of this conductor to 120 degrees C will obtain an emergency rating of 161 MVA which will cost approximately $432,000. Project POWERTN JCT-LILLY ($432K) Contribution, MW Cost, K P P P P P P For ( PLS PR ZION ; R 345 1) -- ATC has plans to uprate the Pleasant Prairie to Zion (#2221) 345-kV line rating through replacement of the wave trap. This mitigation will work for this PJM study as well. The existing rating of this line is 973/1069 MVA for Summer Normal and Emergency operation and 1053/1143 MVA for Winter Normal and Emergency operation. The expected future line ratings which result from the wave trap replacement will be 1201/1479 MVA for Summer Normal and Emergency operation and 1497/1710 MVA for Winter Normal and Emergency operation. PJM generators will not have any cost responsibility towards this upgrade. The MUST reported distribution factors from and the P queue generator impacts are presented in Appendix C.
