    Section 3: Definitions and Equations

    Definitions

    Forced Outage: An outage that cannot be postponed beyond the end of the next weekend.

    Maintenance Outage: An outage that can be postponed beyond the end of the next weekend,

    but requires the unit be removed before the next planned outage.

    Planned Outage: An outage of predetermined length that is scheduled well in advance of its

    occurrence. The outage must be included in a regularly issued maintenance schedule at least

    one month prior to the starting date of the outage; i.e., the outage must appear in two

    consecutive issues of the PJM Unit Maintenance Schedule prior to starting the outage.

    Non-curtailing Outage: The removal from service of spare or redundant equipment (i.e.,

    major components or entire systems) for repairs which causes no unit outage or capacityreduction.

    Postponability Code 9 Outage: A routine, periodic outage (e.g., deslagging, condenser

    cleaning, etc.) which both starts and ends during a single valley load period (i.e., the time

    period from 22:00:01 to 08:00:00, inclusive).

    Period Hours: The total clock time in the period of concern.

    Service Hours: The time a unit is electrically connected to the system.

    Reserve Shutdown Hours: The time a unit is available for service but not dispatched due to

    economics or other reasons.

    Available Hours: The time a unit is capable of producing energy, regardless of its capacity

    level.

    Demand Hours: The time interval each day on a particular system in which there is a heavy

    demand for electricity. For PJM, it is the time period beginning 8:00:01 and ending 22:00:00,

    inclusive.

    Equivalent Outage Hours: The number of hours a unit was involved in an outage, expressed as

    equivalent hours of full outage at its maximum net dependable capacity. Equivalent hours can be

    calculated for forced, maintenance, or planned outages. Overlapping partial outage hours are not

    permitted in PJM outage rate calculations and overlaps are eliminated according to an outage type

    hierarchy. (Refer to Equation 1, page 3-4.)

    Equivalent Demand Forced Outage Rate: The portion of time a unit is in demand, but is

    unavailable due to a forced outage. (Refer to Equation 2, page 3-4.)

    Equivalent Forced Outage Factor: The portion of time a unit is unavailable due to forced outages.

    (Refer to Equation 3, page 3-4.)

    EPOEF: The ratio of EPOF (with SEs included) to EPOF (with SEs excluded).

    Equivalent Maintenance Outage Factor: The portion of time a unit is unavailable due to

    maintenance outages. (Refer to Equation 4, page 3-5.)

    Equivalent Planned Outage Factor: The portion of time a unit is unavailable due to planned

    outages. (Refer to Equation 5, page 3-5.)

    Operating Availability Factor: The portion of time a unit is available to operate.

    Equivalent Availability Factor: The portion of time a unit is available to operate, recognizing

    equivalent partial outage time. (Refer to Equation 7, page 3-5.)

    Effective Equivalent Demand Forced Outage Rate: The forced outage rate used for reliability and

    reserve margin calculations. (Refer to Equation 8, page 3-5.)

    Equivalent Scheduled Outage Factor: The planned outage rate used for reliability and reserve

    margin calculations. (Refer to Equation 9, page 3-6.)

    Variance: A measure of the variability of a units partial forced outages which is used in reserve

    margin calculations.

    f-factor: Factors which have been adopted by PJM to scale the total number of forced outage hours

    to reflect those which occur during demand hours. Separate factors exist to adjust full (ff) and partial

    (fp) outage hours. (Refer to Equation 10, page 3-6.)

    Planning Period: The continuous time period beginning 00:00:01 on June 1 of a given year andending 24:00:00 on May 31 of the following year.

    Mature Unit: A unit having at least five full calendar years of operating experience for Planning

    Study usage or at least five full calendar years of operating experience for reliability calculations.

    Immature Unit: A unit having between zero and five full calendar years of operating experience for

    Planning Study usage or between zero and five full calendar years of operating experience for

    reliability calculations.

    Future Unit: A unit to be placed in service at some future time, as indicated in a forecast installed

    capacity schedule.

    Inactive Status: The classification of a unit which is unavailable for an extended period of time

    because of its removal from service for economic or non-equipment related reasons.

    (1)Since GEBGE can only accommodate two outage rates, the maintenance outage factor must be

    allocated to one, or both, of these rates. A rationale for proportioning it as shown is contained in the

    document "Report on the Study of Load Models and Reliability Program Features," Section I -

    GEBGE Options, pages 5-7 (Random Maintenance), issued March, 1972 by the PJM Capacity and

    Transmission Planning Subcommittee. The original decision, presumably made by the PJM Planning

    and Engineering Committee, predates the indicated report.

    Section 4: Periodic Reports

    Introduction

    The Generator Unavailability Subcommittee is required to periodically compile and issueseveral reports for use by other groups within PJM. These reports provide outage rate

    information needed to perform reliability, reserve requirement, allocation of forecast reserve

    requirement and production studies for the Interconnection. The principal report is the

    Planning Study Outage Data Report due to the Planning Committee February 1 of each year.

    Planning Study Outage Data Report

    Planning study outage data is primarily intended for use by the Load and Capacity

    Subcommittee to determine the PJM capacity reserve requirements. This data is also used to

    determine the Forced Outage Rate (F).

    The report provides Effective Equivalent Demand Forced Outage Rates (EEFORd), capacity

    variances and scheduled outage data for all existing and future units included in the latest

    capacity schedule of each company. This information is based on the latest five full calendar

    years of operating experience and excludes I.O. code 9 outages (i.e., routinely occurring

    off-peak outages).

    Future capacity additions, deletions and modifications are based on data as provided for

    inclusion in the most recent EIA-411/860 report. Additional data available at the PJM Office of

    the Interconnection on possible planned additions is also taken into account.

    The outage data source for this report is the PJM eGADS database which includes the outagehistory for the calendar year just ended. One run must contain "Unit Summary Reports" of

    operating experience for each of the last five years and cumulative for the last five years, the

    "Probability of Unit Partial Outage State Report" and the "Unit Variance and Partial Outage

    State Report." The second run must contain "Unit Summary Reports" of operating experience

    for last five years with scheduled extensions of maintenance and planned outages removed.

    The incumbent GUS chairman is responsible for compiling and issuing this report. Since the

    data included in the report deals with individual units and their operating characteristics the

    report is considered to be confidential and is only used at the PJM Office of the

    Interconnection.

    Data for Units with Five Full Calendar Years of Operating Experience

    (1)Individual Unit Effective Equivalent Demand Forced Outage Rate Calculation:

    Included in the Effective Equivalent Demand Forced Outage Rate (EEFORD) calculation is theEquivalent Demand Forced outage rate (EFORD). The annual unit EFORDwill be 100% for

    any period of operation after 1992 during which minimum reporting requirements are not met.

    Minimum reporting requirements are defined as either GADS event data or actual hourly net

    generation for units less than 10 MW. Class Average Outage Rates for EFORDwill be used for

    all years prior to the first full year of operation and for all non-reported years prior to 1992.

    Companies that are unable to comply with the minimum reporting requirements after 1992 have

    the option to appeal to the Planning Committee for an alternative to the 100% EFORDruling.

    (a)Mature Unit: The effective equivalent demand forced outage rate (%) of a

    mature unit is determined based on the latest five full calendar years of operatingexperience. It is calculated by adding 25% of the equivalent maintenance outage

    factor (%) to the equivalent demand forced outage rate (with f-factor). The five-

    year cumulative statistics are to be taken directly from the GORP output which

    has scheduled extensions included, unless manual adjustments are necessary.

    (b)Mothballed Unit: A mothballed unit is ignored until it is reactivated andincluded in the companys installed capacity.

    (c)Combined Cycle Conversion of Existing CTs:Combined Cycle units createdby adding heat recovery boilers and steam turbines to existing combustion

    turbines will use Class Average Outage Rates until the combined cycle unit hasmature operating history unless granted an exception.

    (2)Capacity Variance Calculation:

    (a)Mature Unit:The capacity variance (MW2) of a mature unit is calculated usingthe procedure given in Section V, Item E: Capacity Variance Calculation

    Procedure for Existing Units. This information is to be taken directly from the

    appropriate GORP output and used, unless manual adjustments are required.

    (b)Mothballed Unit: A mothballed unit is ignored until it is reactivated and

    included in the companys installed capacity.

    (c)Combined Cycle Conversion of Existing CTs:Combined Cycle units createdby adding heat recovery boilers and steam turbines to existing combustion

    turbines will use the following variance formula until the combined cycle unit has

    mature operating history unless granted an exception.

    (3)Scheduled Outage Data Calculation:

    (a)Mature Unit:The scheduled outage data of a mature unit is calculated based onthe latest five full calendar years of operating experience and the "Ten Year Unit

    Planned Maintenance Forecast". Ten years of scheduled outage weeks are

    determined for each unit by multiplying the forecast maintenance weeks by the

    EPOEF (equation 6) and adding to each 75% of the EMOF (weeks/year). The

    five-year cumulative statistics are to be taken directly from the appropriate GORP

    output and used, unless manual adjustments are necessary.

    Data for Units with Less Than Five Full Calendar Years of OperatingExperience and Future Units

    (1)Individual Unit Effective Equivalent Demand Forced Outage Rate Calculation:

    Included in the Effective Equivalent Demand Forced Outage Rate (EEFORD) calculation is the

    Equivalent Demand Forced outage rate (EFORD).

    The annual unit EFORD will be 100% for any period of operation after 1992 during which

    minimum reporting requirements are not met. Minimum reporting requirements are defined as

    either GADS event data or actual hourly net generation for units less than 10 MW. Table III

    values for EFORDwill be used for all years prior to the first full year of operation and for all

    non-reported years prior to 1992.

    Companies that are unable to comply with the minimum reporting requirements after 1992 havethe option to appeal to the Planning and Engineering Committee for an alternative to the 100%

    EFORDruling.

    (a)Immature Unit: The effective equivalent demand forced outage rate of animmature unit is the weighted combination of its historical and class-average

    rates (i.e., Class Average Outage Rates). For example, the rate for a unit with n

    On page 621 of the referenced IEEE paper, the f-factor was defined for use as a mathematical

    trick to permit the substitution of known quantities for un- known quantities in the equation

    expressing the probability that a unit was unavailable during a demand period (equation 15).

    The known quantities were P2(the probability of being in service during a demand period; i.e.,

    state 2) and P1+ P3(the probabilities of being forced out during a demand period; i.e., states 1

    and 3). Equation 15 is given as

    Because we still dont know how to separately define P3, we need to redefine the f-factor in

    Item B: Partial f-Factor Derivation

    Exhibit 5.2: Partial f-Factor Time Period

    The partial f-factor is a measure of the equivalent full forced outage hours that occur during

    times of demand. Theoretically, the partial f-factor is the ratio of the equivalent forced partial

    outage hours occurring during demand periods to the total equivalent forced partial outage

    hours. Assuming that the partial outages are distributed similarly during service hours and

    reserve shutdown hours, then the partial f-factor can be expressed as the ratio of service hours

    to the summation of service and reserve shutdown hours. Since available hours equals the

    summation of service and reserve shutdown hours, the partial f-factor can be expressed as the

    ratio of service hours to available hours, or

    Item C: Modified Two-State Model for Reliability Calculations

    The standard two-state model of a generator considers the unit as being either fully available or

    fully unavailable. The modified two-state model is a better representation for reliability

    calculations because it considers the distribution of outage states possible for a generator. Theresult of using the modified two-state generator availability model is a reduction in the amount

    of reserve capacity required to maintain a reliability index of 10 years per day, as compared to

    the reserve requirement determined using the standard model.

    The standard two-state model calculates the mean available capacity as

    This is the maximum variance that can be experienced about the mean with the given effective

    equivalent demand forced outage rate. Any representation of partial outage states will tend to

    lower the variance.

    The modified two-state model preserves both the mean and the variance of the original forced

    outage distribution by simultaneously solving the two-state mean and variance equations for

    unit capacity and effective equivalent demand forced outage rate using the two-state mean and

    variance values. The resulting modified two-state equations are:

    Item D: Rules for Consistency of Generator Outage Rate Calculations(*)

    (1)Any errors or inconsistencies found in the PJM Outage Data History File must be corrected.

    (2)All revisions to outage rates, for reasons of data integrity, must be accomplished by revisingthe PJM Outage Data History File. If this is not possible, manual revisions to the rates

    calculated by the Generator Outage Rate Program must meet the following conditions:

    (a)The manual adjustment must be documented and presented to the GeneratorUnavailability Subcommittee no later than one month prior to the rate publication

    deadline.

    (b)The manual adjustment must be approved by a majority of the Generator UnavailabilitySubcommittee members.

    (c)The manual adjustment must be documented in the rate publication.

    (d)The discrepancies found in the PJM Outage Data History File which necessitated themanual adjustment must be corrected through established data correction channels to

    avoid future manual adjustment.

    (3)Any outages due to natural disasters (e.g., 1972 Agnes Flood), which the GeneratorUnavailability Subcommittee determines to have a low probability of recurrence, can be

    eliminated from the outage history when calculating outage rates for use in forecasting.

    These special events are recorded in the GORP modification file.

    (4)A units forced outage rate may be discounted to reflect an official capacity deratingprovided the following conditions are met:

    (a)The derating caused the termination of a forced partial reduction which reflected theunits reduced capability during the period from January 1, 1972 through May 31,

    1974 (1).

    (b)Formal documentation of the derating adjustment must be presented to the GeneratorUnavailability Subcommittee no later than one month prior to the rate publication

    deadline.

    (c)The derating adjustment must be approved by a majority of the GeneratorUnavailability Subcommittee members.

    (d)The derating adjustment must be documented in the rate publication.

    Revision 12, Effective Date: 08/23/00M22S05V12.doc

    The rate discounting is accomplished by deleting the reported forced partial outage time from

    the Outage Data History File and subtracting the forced partial reduction capacity from any net

    maximum dependable capacity that was reported concurrently with the reduction (2).

    (5)The annual unit EFORDwill be 100% for any period of operation after 1992 during which

    minimum reporting requirements are not met. Minimum reporting requirements are definedas either GADS event data or actual hourly net generation for units less than 10 MW. Table

    III values for EFORDwill be used for all years prior to the first full year of operation and for

    all non-reported years prior to 1992.

    Companies that are unable to comply with the minimum reporting requirements after 1992 have

    the option to appeal to the Planning Committee for an alternative to the 100% EFORDruling.

    (*)These rules were formulated by the Generator Unavailability Subcommittee, approved by the

    PJM Planning and Engineering Committee at its November, 1974 (172nd) meeting, and

    published in the December, 1974 GUS report to P&E titled "Forced Outage Rates and

    Unavailable Capability Due to Planned and Maintenance Outages for the PJM Supplemental

    Agreement."

    (1) It would not be feasible to adjust for deratings prior to this period due to less stringent data

    reporting requirements that were in effect. Adjustments for deratings occurring subsequent to

    this period are not legitimate. The PJM contract contains provisions to rerate units within a

    reasonable time. During periods where a unit is overrated and a forced partial reduction is

    reported, the higher capacity tends to compensate for the increased forced outage rate and future

    forecast capacity obligation. Thus, an adjustment for the partial reduction in the outage history

    would provide a redundant credit.

    (2) An example of a unit satisfying condition 4a. The reported maximum net dependable

    capacity of this unit for the period 1/1/72 through 5/31/74 was 132MW. For the entire 29-

    month period, the unit had a 5MW forced capacity reduction. The unit was derated 5MW

    effective 6/1/74. In compliance with these rules, the 5MW forced reduction was deleted from

    the PJM Outage History File and the net maximum dependable capacity was changed to

    127MW (132MW minus 5MW) for use in determining the equivalent outage hours.

    Item E: Capacity Variance Calculation Procedure for Existing Units

    The capacity variance is one of the inputs to the GEBGE program which is used to determine

    the PJM capacity reserve requirement. Theoretically, the capacity variance of a unit is

    calculated using the equations

    However, to utilize the information readily available in the outage statistics, a somewhat

    modified approach has been taken. For PJM reliability calculations, the effective equivalent

    demand forced outage rate represents the mean per-unit unavailability. Therefore, the mean

    capacity can be expressed as

    C*D

    EEFOR-(1 )=

    Since the EEFOR includes 25% of the equivalent maintenance outage time, it is a measure ofthe units unavailability due to all unplanned outages. Therefore, the partial outage state

    probabilities must be based on the total unplanned outage time spent in each state. A

    maintenance f-factor has been introduced to transform the maintenance outage time from a

    period hour to a demand hour basis so it can be added to the forced outage time. The

    maintenance f-factor, which also included the 25% proportioning, is defined as

    determination of the unforced capacity factors for all units transacted within the eCapacity

    system both utilize the Generator Outage Rate Program (GORP). This program is part of a web-based data collection and processing system referred to as the eGADS system. The equations

    shown in Section 3 of this manual are all within the GORP program. Authorized users of the

    eGADS system can enter data and run the GORP routines themselves to review the reliability

    of their own equipment. They can not use the routines to access any other partys data.
