4 Southern Company 45,502 MW of generating capacity 41% natural gas, 37% coal, 16% nuclear, 6% hydro PV 60 MW with 115MW in application process Hydro 2,785 MW of generating capacity with 16MW of new capacity planned for next 5 years Biomass 128 MW Landfill Gas 3.2 MW landfill gas generator in Gulf Power Service Territory
5 Georgia Power Solar Georgia Public Service Commission adopted a motion that requires Georgia Power Company to bring online 260MW of solar capacity by 2015 and 265MW by 2017 (525MW total). 100MW of distributed small scale generation 425MW of utility scale solar Small generators ( 100 ) are eligible to sell their electricity under the Renewable & Non renewable Tariff (RNR 7) and the Solar Purchase Tariff (SP 1). Larger customers ( 80 ) may sell their electricity as a Qualifying Facility RNR 7 Company will pay avoided cost SP 1 Company will purchase at cents/kwh

18 Facility Acceptance Testing Inverters >250kW Witness Test GPC Witness Test Personnel Required to record and witness test GPC Switching Personnel Required to operate the disconnecting of the high side fuse or switch Customer Setting Engineer Required to make adjustments to interconnection protection equipment Customer Test Engineer Required to perform secondary injection testing on interconnection protection equipment Customer Systems Operator Required to perform the customer switching of DC and AC systems Inverter Control Engineer Required to make adjustments to set points of the inverter if needed Customer Representative Required to sign witness test report upon completion
19 Facility Acceptance Testing Transient Overvoltage Test Single Phase Disconnect Test Shut down timing 2 sec disconnect, 5 min reconnect Inverter Control Mode Test Control power factor to predetermined set point 30 min
20 Site Testing Pictures
21 Normal Peak Voltage = 400 Volt = 1 PU Maximum Peak reached = 702 Volt = 1.76 PU PASS
22 Maximum Peak reached = 1100 Volt = 2.75 PU FAIL Normal Peak Voltage = 400 Volt = 1 PU
23 Maximum Peak reached = 1171 Volt = 2.93 PU Normal Peak Voltage = 400 Volt = 1 PU FAIL Transient Over Voltages last 24 ms
24 By Comparison, look at the same inverter installed at another location Notice the voltage peaks barely goes above 800 Volts or 2 PU PASS

26 Single Phase Open Voltage Test Single phase opened here Single phase closed here Approximately 7 seconds of open phase
27 After settings on the inverter were changed The inverter takes 2 seconds before shutting down.
28 Next Steps Interconnection study with multiple connected DG Winter peak interconnection study? Need better estimate of time series impact Need CBA of constant PF inverter control Need to share learnings from utility experiences Southern Company needs to develop a DERMS Develop strategic plans at all business units for the integration of DER
