  1. Grid Code Frequency Response Working Group System Inertia Antony Johnson, System Technical Performance

  2. Overview � Background to System Inertia � Transmission System need � Future Generation Scenarios � Initial Study Work � International Experience and Manufacturer Capability � Transmission System Issues � Conclusions

  3. Frequency Change � Under steady state the mechanical and electrical energy must be balanced � When the electrical load exceeds the mechanical energy supplied, the system frequency will fall. � The rate of change of frequency fall will be dependant upon the initial Power mismatch and System inertia � The speed change will continue until the mechanical power supplied to the transmission system is equal to the electrical demand.

  4. Why is Inertia Important � Inertia is the stored rotating energy in the system � Following a System loss, the higher the System Inertia (assuming no frequency response) the longer it takes to reach a new steady state operating frequency. � Directly connected synchronous generators and Induction Generators will contribute directly to System Inertia. � Modern Generator technologies such as Wind Turbines or wave and tidal generators which decouple the prime mover from the electrical generator will not necessarily contribute directly to System Inertia � Under the NGET Gone Green Scenario, significant volumes of new generation are unlikely to contribute to System Inertia

  5. What is inertia? � The stored energy is proportional to the speed of rotation squared � 3 types of event cause a change in frequency � Loss of generation (generator, importing HVDC link etc) � Loss of load � Normal variations in load and generator output Loss of Generator on the system Frequency Falls as demand > generation Stored energy delivered to grid as MW

  6. The maths behind inertia H = Inertia constant in MWs / MVA H = Inertia constant in MWs / MVA ½J ω 2 ½J ω 2 J = Moment of inertia in kgm 2 of the rotating mass J = Moment of inertia in kgm 2 of the rotating mass H = H = ω = nominal speed of rotation in rad/s ω = nominal speed of rotation in rad/s MVA MVA MVA = MVA rating of the machine MVA = MVA rating of the machine Typical H for a synchronous generator can range from 2 to 9 seconds (MWs/MVA) ∂ f ∂ f ∆ P ∆ P ∂ f/ ∂ t = Rate of change of frequency ∂ f/ ∂ t = Rate of change of frequency = = ∆ P = MW of load or generation lost ∆ P = MW of load or generation lost ∂ t ∂ t 2H 2H 2H = Two times the system inertia in MWs / MVA 2H = Two times the system inertia in MWs / MVA

  8. Quantitative Analysis � The effect of System Inertia is being quantitatively analysed through two methods:- � Energy Balance spread sheet approach � Utilising simple predictive output models based on an energy balance � System Study using a Test Network � Utilising Dynamic System Models

  9. Energy Balance Spread Sheet Approach � System Considered � 16.5 GW of Wind, 6.9 GW Nuclear, 1.6 GW Carbon Capture � Load Response 2% per Hz � Assumed loss – 1800MW � System Balanced at t = 0 seconds � Inertia considered in isolation � General Conclusion � The higher the inertia the longer it takes for the steady state frequency to be reached. � See subsequent slides
