While the fixed speed synchronous generator can meet the peak power demand in quickest possible way, the pumping operation has immense contribution in maintaining frequency at lean hour and maintaining the plant load factor of Thermal generation plants. With the advent of technological advancement to meet the need of the power system network, variable speed machines are gradually felt necessary because of their many advantages over the conventional fixed speed machines. Specially, with the present trend of development of renewable energy in India, grid management will become critical in future, In such scenario one of the options in integrated power system management is variable speed pumped storage project, It has some other definite advantages when analysed on long term basis over life cycle of project. Considering the above scenario, only Variable speed units has been considered for the basic design of the electro - mechanical equipment to achieve the following: i, Capability of machine to operate for entire head variation range - Generated power from renewable energy shall be evacuated to PGCIL grid in Round The Clock (RTC), to achieve that pumped storage project shall operate to run for entire head range for generation of minimum possible load. ii, Efficient Power utilization in pumping mode with variation of head, discharge and Power by the DFIM units instead of Fixed power utilization for any head and dis- charge by fixed speed machines. Best optimum efficiency along the head range can be achieved by varying speed in both turbine & pump modes for DFIM units which is not the case with fixed speed units, ili, Full Operating Flexibility (both in Pumping & Generation Mode) — Since power gener- ated from renewable sources i.e. from Solar and Wind is not constant and will fluctu- ate frequently, to evacuate constant power of 1200 MW to grid required deficit power will be generated from pumped storage project, Hence full flexibility from 1 MW to 1200 MW required. To meet the drastic change in the grid/IREP requirements Fast variation of power can be achieved by controlling the slip frequency of Rotor by AC excitation system of the units causing speed variation of the machine as it is evident that by changing the speed the fol- lowing are the changes in the machine parameters.

In addition, two smaller units of 120 MW capacity are envis- aged with Hydraulic short circuit to mitigate the requirements of full flexibility from 1 MW to 1200 MW in a combination of operations in generator/motor with minimal hydraulic losses which is one for the reason for opting two capacities. For this one penstock taking off from the upper reservoir, will be bifurcated in to two being fed to the units of 120 MW and the delivery side of the units are again connected to common Tail race tunnel as hy- draulic short circuit to connect to the two units. ‘* Ease of Operation & Maintenance because simple PH layouts ~ If all machines considered with variable speed, it is easy for operation of units and maintenance of critical spares. ‘* Higher Efficiency for entire head range of operations ~ With DFIM technology i.e. with variable speed machines we can achieve higher efficiencies for entire head range compared with fixed speed machines. Proposed project is with renewable sources i.e. with wind and solar, generated power is not constant and will fluctu- ate, Hence pumped storage project shall run at higher efficiencies to achieve maximum power. ‘* Capability of machines to ramp up and ramp down in minimum time - During shutdown of Solar and wind generation to facilitate evacuation of power to grid within minimum possible time is possible with variable speed machines. Technical particulars of all the types described below considering variable speed units with DFIM for all the units, The proposed storage component of Pinnapuram IREP of 1200 MW is envisaged to have 6 vertical reversible pump-turbines driven generating units (4 X 240MW & 2 X 120 MW). The prime mover for all six generators shall be Reversible Vertical Francis Turbine suitable for bidirectional operation, During the Generator mode of operation, the power shall be generated at 18 KV for both 240 MW units and 120 MW units. The generated power will be transmitted through Generator Step-Up Transformer (GSUT) to 400kV Gas insulated switchgear (GIS). Auxiliary power required during start-up of plant will be delivered from 400kV GIS through Station Transformer (ST) to the medium voltage system (11kV). Detailed Project Report of Pinnapuram Pumped Storage Project Rev - RO Page 209 RY aarvee associates Greenk® actitets engineers & constants pvt The same turbine shall act as a pump and shall operate in Motor mode for pumping the water from lower reservoir to upper reservoir. The installed capacity of a pumped storage scheme is influenced by the requirements of daily peaking power requirements, flexibility in efficient operation of units, storage available in the reservoirs and the area capacity characteristics. The key to the flexibility of the pumped storage hydro is to speed the facility that can go from storing energy (pumping water into the upper water body) to the generation of energy (releasing water from the upper water body through the turbines to the lower body of water). The pure reversible turbine equipment requires stopping and reversing the water flow, this can take 5 to 6 minutes per cycle. Basis for selection of machines: Larger Uni 4 no’ 240MW Size of larger unit is based on the limiting the width of powerhouse and diameter of water conductor system consists of intake tunnel, surface penstocks & vertical and horizontal underground pressure shafts for the following design considerations: * Suitable for handling and fabrication of ferrules + Maximum excavated diameter for underground intake tunnel, vertical and horizontal pressure shaft in consideration of rock column in between and top cover require ments to suit geological conditions + Size of adit for transportation of ferrules for construction of pressure shaft + Economical diameter of the pressure shaft in consideration of techno-commercial aspects as per IS:11625-1986 + Limiting to the width of 25.5 m of pit excavation of surface powerhouse Based on the above studies the optimal diameter works out 7.5m suitable for generation of 240 MW unit. Smaller Units ~ 2 n 120MW + Pinnapuram PSP will consume power during the pumping mode from other power sources viz. Solar & Wind power of capacities 3000 MW and 500 MW respectively. + To pump water in the time slot of 6PM to 6AM (Night Hours), minimum power avail- able from wind generation on an average in different seasons (more than 6 months) will be varying from 60MW to 120MW. During night hours only wind power will be available. Minimum MW consumed by 120 MW unit is in the range of 65 MW to 72 MW, Accordingly, to utilize that generated wind power during night hours for pump- ing 120 MW units are selected. + As 120 MW variable speed machines are also envisaged in the scheme with hy- draulic short circuit the necessary requirements from 1 to 120 MW can be met from Detailed Project Report of Pinnapuram Pumped Storage Project Rev - RO Page 210 w aarvee associates Greenk® actitets engineers & constants pvt these machines. In case any additional power available can also be utilized for pumping in combination of 240 MW and 120 MW units. * Similar situation may arise during the daytime therefore, flexibility is kept such that even less availability of Solar/Wind power, pumping operation could be started, In lieu of the above in Pinnapuram PSP, larger units of 4nos-240 MW and smaller units of 2nos- 120 MW are planned for 1200 MW installed capacity. Description of Operational Flexibility: The units of 240 & 120MW capacity will be operated with an operating range of around 30 to 100% in turbine mode and 60 to 100% (based on head) in pump mode by varying the speed. In addition, two smaller units of 120 MW capacity are envisaged with Hydraulic short circuit to mitigate the requirements of full flexibility from 1 MW to 1200 MW in a combination of operations in generator/motor with minimal hydraulic losses. Ih order to mitigate the additional power available for pumping and meet the requirements of the grid by generating the power from the IREP scheme in efficient way the full flexibility is considered.As PSP is connected to RE power where this power is intermittent and uncertain, To account the intermittency and uncertainty adjustable/variable speed machines are considered against fixed speed machines as the Power consumption in motor mode cannot be regulated with respect to the power availability from renewable energy grid. Description of Power Availability: Pumped storage plant will be operated based on quantum of power required as per the PPA commitment round the clock, When power generated through solar & wind is equivalent to PPA commitment, power will be evacuated to grid directly. When power less than PPA commitment is generated through solar & wind generation, PSP will be taken in generation mode to augment and evacuate to grid. When power generated through solar & wind is excess than the PPA commitment, then PSP will be operated in pumping mode to consume power. iii) Minimum and Maximum Power Generated by Renewable Grid: ‘Wind Power Generation range : 35 MW to 450 MW Power Generation from wind is around 100 MW and below in case of lean season, Solar Power Generation range : 4.5 MW to 1000 MW In non solar season power generation from Solar is under lower side. 10.2 Electro-Mechanical Equipment The Electro-Mechanical equipment required for the proposed scheme comprises of the following: > Main inlet valve.

The stator frame with core and windings will be shipped from the factory /works in suitable segments considering transport limitations. The stator steel structure and is provided with suitably arranged braces to form a stiff and vibration free construction. The interior of the stator casing partly forms the cooling ducts and therefore the braces in the stator frame are arranged in such a manner that optimum air flow will be obtained. For easier transportation the stator casing is split up into several sections. The sections of the stator casing are damped together by means of liberally dimensioned bolts. STATOR CORE: The stack of laminations constituting the active part of the generator is made of silicon alloy steel sheets. The segments are coated with an insulating varnish of good thermal and mechanical properties on both sides and stacked interleaved. STATOR WINDING: The stator winding is designed as a pitched two-layer winding which is arranged to obtain a near sine wave curve by suppressing the harmonics. The stator winding is a transposed bar winding Each bar consists of several transposed, insulated strands in order to reduce the additional copper losses. ROTOR SPIDER: All materials of the rotor parts are designed for the highest stress which may occur due to centrifugal force during runaway conditions. The stub shafts of forged alloy steel properly annealed are fiange-connected to both sides of the rotor hub, The complete shaft will be tested exhaustively in the works of the shaft manufacturer to ensure conformity to the material and structural standards. The rotor has a suitably designed hub for the connection with the shaft. ROTOR LAMINATIONS: The rotor core is constructed in the same way as the stator core. The rim sheets are made of silicon alloy steel sheets, This reduces the additional losses in the teeth of the rotor rim. The segments are coated with an insulating varnish of good thermal and mechanical properties on both sides and stacked interleaved. In order to ensure cooling of the package and the installed winding, the entire package is subdivided into several partial stacks with intermediate ventilation ducts, The design and assembly process is analogous to the stator lamination stack. After heating, the segmental rim is shrunk on the webs with keys placed between the webs and the rim to achieve the desired prestress.

The bars of the two-layer rotor winding consist of partial conductors, in order to reduce the additional losses. The Mica ‘Tec™ insulation system is also used for insulation which corresponds to class F. The support of the rotor end winding has the task of receiving the centrifugal forces. At the same time, enough cooling of the winding head is to be ensured, The involute section where the end region of the rotor winding is held by support rings and U-bolts/Retaining ring/single bolt locking against the occurring centrifugal forces. The Rotor leads are guided in grooves which are milled into the shaft. Particular attention is paid to the mechanical stress in the shaft and the possible losses caused by eddy current losses.

In order to reduce the stop time, the excitation & control system shall include an electrical brake function The electrical braking can be activated at any speed from maximum synchronized rotating speed to 0 rpm. The electrical braking performance shall be such that the stopping time is approximately 1/10 of the purely mechanical stopping time, The generator will be provided with air-operated brakes to bring the rotating parts of the generator to rest from about 15% of the rated speed during normal operation. The brakes will be suitable for application at higher speed during emergency shutdown of the unit in order to bring the unit to rest at a faster rate. The brakes will operate manually/automatically from local panel/unit control board.
