Network monitoring & control actions
RLDC may direct the SLDCs/ISGS/other regional entities
to increase/decrease their drawal/generation in case of
contingencies e.g. overloading of lines/transformers,
abnormal voltages, threat to system security. Such
directions shall immediately be acted upon.
In case the situation does not call for very urgent action,
and RLDC has some time for analysis, it shall be checked
whether the situation has arisen due to deviations from
schedules,
37
Network monitoring & control actions
These ( Deviations) shall be got terminated first, through
appropriate measure like opening of feeders, if
considered necessary by SLDC/RLDC, before an action,
which would affect the scheduled supplies to the long term
and medium term customers or short-term customers, is
initiated in accordance with Central Electricity Regulatory
Commission Open Access Regulations.
In case short term /Medium term or Long Term open
access are curtailed, RLDC(s) shall submit a report
regarding the reasons due to which it was not able to
curtail deviations from Schedule and agencies which
had not taken necessary actions. ( 2nd IEGC Amendment)
38
Inj. Schedule- Deviation by Hydro Gen.
Hydro generating stations are expected to respond to
grid frequency changes and inflow fluctuations.
Maximum deviation allowed during a time block
shall as per CERC Deviation Settlement
Mechanism regulations . ( 2nd IEGC Amendment).
39
Inj. Schedule- Deviation by Hydro Gen.
The schedule finalized by the concerned load despatch
centre for hydro generating station, shall normally be
such that the scheduled energy for a day equals the total
energy (ex-bus) expected to be available on that day, as
declared by the generating station, based on
foreseen/planned water availability/release.
41
Special provisions for grid Constraints
If, at any point of time, the RLDC observes that there is need
for revision of the schedules in the interest of better system
operation, it may do so on its own, and in such cases, the
revised schedules shall become effective from the 4th time
block.
When for the reason of transmission constraints e.g. congestion
or in the interest of grid security, it becomes necessary to
curtail power flow on a transmission corridor, the transactions
already scheduled may be curtailed by the Regional Load
Despatch Centre. The short-term customer shall be curtailed
first followed by the medium-term customers, which shall be
followed by the long-term customers and amongst the
customers of a particular category, curtailment shall be carried
out on pro rata basis. 42
Special provisions for grid Disturbance
In case of any grid disturbance, scheduled generation of all the
ISGSs supplying power under long/medium /short term shall
be deemed to have been revised to be equal to their actual
generation and scheduled drawal of all the beneficiaries / buyers
shall be deemed to be revised accordingly, for all the time
blocks affected by the grid disturbance. Certification of grid
disturbance and its duration shall be done by the RLDC.
The declaration of disturbance shall be done by the concerned
RLDC at the earliest. A notice to this effect shall be posted at
its website by the RLDC of the region in which the
disturbance occurred. Issue of the notice at RLDC web site
shall be considered as declaration of the disturbance by
RLDC. All regional entities shall take note of the disturbance
and take appropriate action at their end. ( 2nd IEGC
Amendment) 43
Special provisions for ISGS(s) having two part
tariff (6.5.18)
Revision of declared capability by the ISGS(s) having two
part tariff with capacity charge and energy charge(except
hydro stations) and requisition by beneficiary(ies) for the
remaining period of the day shall also be permitted with
advance notice. Revised schedules/declared capability in
such cases shall become effective from the 4th time block .
44
Special provisions for Forced outage of
ISGS(s) having two part tariff
Notwithstanding anything contained in Regulation 6.5.18, in
case of forced outages of a unit, for those stations who have a
two part tariff based on capacity charge and energy charge for
long term and medium term contracts, the RLDC shall revise
the schedule on the basis of revised declared capability.
The revised declared capability and the revised schedules
shall become effective from the fourth time block, counting
the time block in which the revision is advised by the ISGS to
be the first one.”

Wind generation Scheduling
With effect from 1.1.2011 15.07.2013 Scheduling of Wind Gen.
necessary:
i) where the sum of generation capacity of such plants connected at
the connection point to the transmission or distribution system is 10
MW and above
ii) and connection point is 33 KV and above,
iii) and where pooling stations commissioned after 03.05.2010 and
where PPA has not yet been signed. (2nd Amend)
For capacity and voltage level below this, as well as for old wind
farms ( A wind farm is collection of wind turbine generators that
are connected to a common connection point) it could be mutually
decided between the Wind Generator and the transmission or
distribution utility, as the case may be, if there is no existing
contractual agreement to the contrary .
There may be maximum of 16 revisions starting from 00:00 hours
during the day.
47
Scheduling of solar generation
Scheduling necessary with effect from 1.7.2011, for new
solar generating plants with capacity of 5 MW and
above connected at connection point of 33 KV level
and above and , where pooling stations
commissioned after 03.05.2010 and where PPA has
not yet been signed. (2nd Amend,)
Schedule to be given by the generator based on
availability of the generator, weather forecasting, solar
insolation, season and normal solar generation curve
to be vetted by the RLDC in which the generator is
located and incorporated in the inter-state schedule.
If RLDC is of the opinion that the schedule is not
realistic , it may ask the solar generator to modify the
