Security Constraint Unit Commitment and Economic Dispatch Overview Generator/load data Load/reserve requirements Initial generator status Initial Unit Commitment Commitment Schedule Initial Unit Commitment (IUC) Solves for generation, reserve and load schedules that meet the generation and reserve requirements and the generator constraints. This module produces a base generator/load schedule which is used to obtain the initial solved power flows for the networ analysis programs. Revised Unit Commitment and Generation /Load Schedule Networ Data reparation Networ Security Analysis Networ Constrained Unit Commitment Networ Flow Base Cases Networ Constraints Networ Data reparation (ND) Develops hourly, un-solved power flows based on the commitment and generation schedule from IUC and the networ data Networ Security Analysis (NSA) Solves hourly security analysis cases. If lines (or interfaces) limits are not satisfied for the input schedule then NSA generates additional constraints for use by the NCUC function so that NCUC, in the next iteration, produces a schedule that is closer to satisfying the constraints. Networ Constrained Unit Commitment (NCUC) Solves for generation, reserve and load schedules that meet the generation and reserve requirements, the generator constraints, the branch-flow constraints (produced by NSA) 11
Networ Security Analysis
Networ Security Analysis (NSA) urpose: Evaluates the feasibility of the generation schedule in terms of the base case networ and the potential impact of a set of contingencies where feasibility is defined as satisfaction of all the networ constraints Networ constraints : Base Case Networ thermal branch flow limits interface MW flow limits ey bus voltages Contingency Networ thermal branch flow limits interface MW flow limits 13
Networ Security Analysis (NSA) cont. Feasibility Evaluation : Base case networ Full AC power flow Contingency networ incremental DC (linear) approach NSA differs from the normal Optimal ower Flow All violated constraints are identified and passed to the NCUC module simultaneously; All identified constraint violations are submitted to the NCUC module regardless of their binding status -- no constraint is ever removed from the list, only new ones are added. 14
NYISO Normal Operating State Criteria re-contingency (Actual) Flow Criteria: Actual loading of equipment defined as part of the NYS Transmission System should not exceed the associated Normal ratings of the equipment ost-contingency Flow Criteria: reventive mode: the loss of any single generator, single circuit, or adjacent circuits on the same structure, together with other facilities, which will trip at the same time due to pre-set automatic devices, will not cause any portion of the NYS Transmission System to exceed its LTE rating. Corrective mode: Underground cable : may exceed its LTE rating, but not its STE rating, provided 10- minute reserve or AR control is available to return its post-contingency loading to its LTE rating within 15 minutes, without causing another facility exceed its LTE rating Overhead Transmission: with prior approval of the NYISO, the post-contingency loading of any portion of the NYS Transmission System may exceed its LTE rating, provided sufficient control is available to return the loading on the facility to its LTE rating within 15 minutes, without causing another facility to exceed its LTE rating 15
NSA Mathematical Model All networ constraints passed to NCUC are expressed in terms of generator shift factors and constraint limits. The constraint limits are distinct from the original transmission constraint ratings. They represent the aggregate effect of the shift factors and violations on the constraints. If pre, represents the precontingency flow in branch, and this branch flow is the violated security constraint then: max pre, pre, (1) max Where pre, is the pre-contingency rating (Normal rating). The constraint to be enforced is of the following form max pre, pre, (2) 16
NSA Mathematical Model Continued All networ constraints passed to NCUC are expressed in terms of generator shift factors and constraint limits. The constraint limits are distinct from the original transmission constraint ratings. They represent the aggregate effect of the shift factors and violations on the constraints. Equation (2) is translated into a linear function of the control variable C in terms of shift factors S, ' max S C S ( C C ) pre, pre, (3) Equation (3) is further rearranged into ' max S C pre, pre, C ' denotes the latest dispatch passed to NSA by NCUC/NCED and C is the new dispatch to be solved by NCUC/NCED.

otential Research Areas: ost- Contingency Modeling Methodology For both preventive mode and preventive/corrective mode: Base networ constraints are secured to the pre-contingency ratings ost-contingency constraints are secured to either STE or LTE ratings (either 6-hour or post-contingency continuous as specified by the user) via the preventive actions or a mixture of the preventive/corrective actions NSA mathematical model is appropriate when considering the pre-contingency constraints Mathematical model will need to be modified for the postcontingency constraints in which the post-contingency ratings are functions of the pre-contingency flows 18
Modeling of ost-contingency Ratings All post-contingency ratings are modeled as monotonically decreasing piecewise-linear functions of the pre-contingency flows max post, pre, re-contingency Rating 19
ost-contingency Constraint Limit Calculation If post, is the post-contingency flow in branch i j, and this branch flow is the violated security constraint, then: max post, post, max ost-contingency rating post, is a function of pre-contingency flows pre as illustrated in Figure 1. The post-contingency rating is modeled as monotonically decreasing piecewise-linear functions of the pre-contingency flow. (5), max post, pre, Where is the slope and is the interception. (6) 20

Benefits of the improved ost- Contingency Modeling methodology The new methodology of post-contingency modeling offers several benefits Cost effectiveness Less constraint means cheaper production cost Congestion relief Higher rating means less congestion Does not compromise grid reliability Rating is set based on the pre-contingency flow or amount of MW flow (NOTE: precontingency flow impacts the temperature of the line, and temperature impacts the post contingency rating) Optimized asset utilization Lower prices to consumers True Line capacity in Real-Time Improved transmission efficiency 23
