B P Rao

WEC PGP KN Leader & CMD BHEL, India

16th June 2015


…the past ► Last meeting of PGP-KN held at VGB PowerTech e.V. Essen, Germany on 27th

Nov 2014 under the leadership of Mr. Gerard Hatabian

► Overview of PGP’s activities - discussion on Terms of Reference for the 2014-

2016 PGP work programme was presented

► Discussion centered on the shortage of expert resources to deliver all objectives

proposed in the ToR.

► Special expertise was needed to cover all work items, the renewable plant

performance, WG3 in particular.

► Participants agreed on a step-by-step approach whereby the KN would produce at

least one issues paper/report every year starting from 2015 when the first report

would address power plant efficiencies.

► Elena Nekhaev has undertaken to draft a broad concept suggesting particular

focus areas.


….the present ► The PGP KN Leader Gerard Hatabian suddenly stepped down from his PGP position in

February 2015.

► At present, the WEC Knowledge Network (KN) on the Performance of Generating Plant

has 33 members from 23 countries.

► PGP and its Work Groups are now incorporated under GEI as a first step in bringing all

WEC electricity-related activities together under the single umbrella of GEI in order to

streamline various activities and avoid duplication.

• Work Group 1 : analyses the best ways to measure, evaluate, and apply power plant performance and availability

data to promote plant performance improvements worldwide.

• Work Group 2: collects and oversees the input of power plant performance data into the WEC PGP database and

also oversees the availability statistics database.

• Work Group 3 covers the generation part of the renewable energy value chain.

• A new Work Group 4 on Renewable Energy Sources (RES) Systems Integration focusing on examining the

impacts that integration of volatile renewable resources has on the performance of power systems.

► WEC finalised B.P.Rao/India as the new leader of the PGP-KN in May 2015


Power Plant Efficiency vs Availability (gist of the draft paper by Ms Elena)

► Key factors influencing plant performance should be identified and analysed

to allow a cost/benefit analysis of any activity/programme before its implementation.

► Heat rates are important measures of efficiencies and should continue to be measured. However, heat rates should not be used for comparing one generating unit against other.

► Operating and design factors have a big impact on heat rates. Heat rates are not constant and are not fully controlled by the unit operators but also by dispatch and operating conditions.

► The best way to compare a generating unit’s heat rate is against itself for heat rate changes and efficiencies.

► To analyse plant availability performance, the energy losses/outages should be scrutinised to identify the causes of unplanned or forced energy losses and to reduce the planned energy losses.

► Planned / unplanned outages impact availability factor.


Power Plant Efficiency vs Availability (gist of the draft paper by Ms Elena)

► Industry has transitioned from base-load conventional generation to base-load, mid-

merit and peaking generation including a full range of renewable technologies.

► Compared to simple input/output method of determining heat rates the heat loss

method focusing on measuring the efficiency of the major energy conversion blocks of

the power plant ie boiler, steam turbine, generator & the BoP equipment (documented

in ASME standards) maybe a better method

► Most critical performance metrics now revolve around efficiency, renewables

contribution and overall “ability” of combined Generation + Transmission + Distribution

to deliver cost-effective, increasingly sustainable energy to end users.

► PGP focus on PERFORMANCE remains an invaluable resource in achieving

greater understanding of this issue or other issues in the context of other drivers,

technology limitations, economics and other realities.

► To illustrate some key aspects above the Indian example is being shared…

…the way forward PROPOSED WEC CONTRIBUTION

► Benefits of the global comparison system are numerous and obvious potential impact

on the energy sector

► Increasing exchange of Information, techniques and methods through PGP power plant

database.

► The introductory pages of PGP database can be accessed by anyone anytime from

everywhere, subject to registration

► To view real information in the data base can only be done by those submitting their

own data and by contacting the London Secretariat at http://www.worldenergy.org under

a confidentiality agreement

► Immediate Action Plan:

• Attempt to enhance PGP-KN membership

• Participate in the electricity workshop together with AFREC and APUA in Addis Ababa

under the GEI umbrella

• To convene a meeting of the PGP-KN members before Dec-2015 in New Delhi, India

• PGP-KN to use standard versions of data tools & performance analytics within a pilot

Objectives

A. To assess the impacts of volatile RES on power systems, such as

primary frequency regulation; greater flexibility of conventional

plants; balancing problems and costs; impacts on the market

conditions etc.

B. Assessment of remedial actions / tools to minimize volatile

RES impacts such as network reinforcements, storage systems,

improved flexibility of conventional plants, better weather

forecasting, DSM, integration of Smart ICT technologies in both

distribution and transmission systems for a better integration etc.


Modus operandi

leadership of the KN Leader Alessandro Clerici and assisted by

Daniele Daminelli

► KN activity has been strongly supported by WEC London Office

through Elena Nekhaev

► The initial meeting was held in Essen in late November 2014, followed

by teleconferences and email exchange


Activities to date

Phase I (Nov 2014 - Jan 2015)

► Kick-off Meeting in Essen (28-29 November 2014)

► Survey Questionnaire reviewed and agreed with the KN members

Activities to date

► Launch of World Energy Perspective “Catalysing the low-carbon economy in January 2015

► Report shared with relevant national missions in Geneva, Switzerland

► Meeting with WTO Director General Roberto Azevêdo • to understand medium-term WTO priorities,

• explore ideas where WEC could provide meaningful input to ongoing WTO discussions, and

• invite the Director General to the 2016 World Energy Congress

► Monitoring of activities outside WTO such as the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP); US-EU; APEC (FTAAP); ASEAN FTA; and MERCUSOR-EU.


Focus going forward: non-tariff barriers

► Three work phases: • Collate examples of existing and proposed non-tariff measures (June to July 2015)

• Examine the measures in the context of general trade guidelines and assess the impact these

measures have on the energy trilemma and could have if restrictions were removed. Assess what

developments have occurred recently (August to September 2015)

• Develop guidelines and review the guidelines with key stakeholders (October – December 2015)

► The following have been identified by the knowledge network as

relevant non-tariff barriers to trade: • Local content requirements

• Government procurement policies

• Subsidies

• Intellectual property rights [Build on 2011 paper]

• Corrupt and/or lengthy customs and administrative entry procedures

• Industry standards

• Export-credit mechanisms

• Pipeline/grid access

• Impact of internationalisation on market design

• State-owned enterprises
