submitted on 20.10.2015. Draft report (part 1) covering load flow, contingency and short
circuit studies for year 2021-22 and draft report (part 2) covering transient stability and
light load studies for the horizon year 2021-22 was submitted on 07.01.2016. Final report
is prepared in two volumes; Final report (volume 1) covering load flow, contingency and
short circuit studies for year 2018-19 was submitted on 23.12.2015.

Further, final report (Volume 2) is prepared in two parts. Final report (Volume 2, part 1)
covers load flow, contingency and short circuit studies for year 2019-20, 2020-21 and
2021-22. Present final report (Volume 2, part 2) covers transient stability and light load
studies for the horizon year 2021-22.

Transient Stability Studies:

Transient stability studies for year 2021-22 were simulated considering various types of
disturbances detailed in CEA transmission planning criteria such as three phase to
ground fault on 765 kV lines, single line to ground fault on one circuit of 765 kV D/C lines
with unsuccessful re-closure, three phase to ground fault on 400 kV lines, single line to
ground fault on one circuit of 400 kV D/C lines with unsuccessful re-closure, three phase
to ground fault on 220 kV lines, outage of 400 kV interstate lines, outage of 400/220 kV
interconnecting transformer, generator outages and load disturbances. Also, cases were
simulated to find the critical clearing time of generators.

Based on the transient stability studies simulated for the disturbances created on 765kV,
400kV & 220kV lines, 400/220kV interconnecting transformers, generator outages and
load disturbances of OPTCL system, it is observed that the system is stable and the
frequency and rotor angle swing damp adequately with respect to time.

Light Load Studies


Load flow study is simulated for year 2021-22 considering the system light load
conditions. Around 60% of system peak demand (44% of load at 11 kV and 33 kV level
and 100% of industrial and traction loads) is considered for the light load studies. From
the past data it is observed that system light load is occurring from October to December
period during which hydro generation is minimum. Hence, minimum hydro generation is
considered for light load studies. Further generations from thermal units are reduced to
account for scheduled maintenance. All the existing reactors in Odisha along with PGCIL
proposed reactors have been considered in the present light load studies.

 Around 255 MVAr of capacitor banks are switched off at 33 kV buses of many
132/33 kV substations out of a total of 1210 MVAr of capacitor banks considered
up to year 2021-22.

 It is observed that, voltage at 400 kV bus of proposed Narendrapur 400/220 kV


substation is close to 1.05 pu. Hence it is recommended to install 80 MVAr bus
reactor at Narendrapur 400/220 kV substation in order to control voltage during
light load condition.

 Also, 765 kV bus reactors 240 MVAr each at Begunia and OTPCL generation
switchyard, 2x240 MVAr 765 kV line reactors in Begunia to OTPCL 765 kV D/C
line at Begunia end and 2x240 MVAr 765 kV line reactors in Angul to OTPCL 765
kV D/C line at Angul end are considered in the study.

 With existing bus/line reactors and planned PGCIL bus/line reactors in Odisha, it
is observed that voltages at all the substations in Odisha are well within the
voltage limits prescribed by CEA.

Modeling of control blocks:
The objective of the control strategy is to generate and deliver power in an
interconnected system as economically and reliably as possible while maintaining the
voltage and frequency within the permissible limits. With a wide range of excitation
system in service and the profusion of people performing analysis of them there has
been considerable variation in definitions of basic quantity and in the nomenclature used.
Responsible bodies throughout the world have been working to unify this field and in
recent years, the IEEE has been quite active in this direction. Based on the discussion
and analysis, IEEE has come up with standard type of governors and AVRs that can
reflect faithfully the response during stability studies more effectively thus giving accurate
picture of system performance during contingencies. Typical parameters considered for
AVR are provided in Table 3.2 and typical parameters of hydro and thermal governor are
presented in Table 3.3 and 3.4 respectively.

4. TRANSIENT STABILITY STUDY - METHODOLOGY


Transient stability studies deal with the effect of large, sudden disturbances such as the
occurrence of a fault, the sudden outage of a line or a generator or sudden application or
removal of loads. Transient stability studies are required to ensure that the system can
withstand the transient condition following major disturbance. The studies are helpful in
determining the nature of relaying system needed, critical clearing time of circuit
breakers, voltage level and transfer capability between systems.

OPTCL network planned for meeting the 2021-22 projected peak demand of 6051 MW
along with 887 MW of additional bulk load was considered for the transient stability
study. The system frequency prior to disturbance is considered as 50 Hz. All the
generators were suitably modeled (sub-transient modeling) along with the Eastern,
Western and Northern region system. The synchronous machine parameters of
generating stations considered in the studies are presented in Table 3.1. Typical
parameters as per CEA guidelines were assumed in case of non-availability of any data.
Standard IEEE primary governor and Automatic Voltage Regulator (AVR) models are
considered in the study. Stability studies were performed considering following
disturbances based on the guidelines outlined in CEA transmission planning criteria.

The transmission system shall be stable after it is subjected to one of the following
disturbances:

 The system shall be able to survive a permanent three phase to ground fault on a
765 kV line close to the bus to be cleared in 100 ms.
 The system shall be able to survive a permanent single phase to ground fault on
a 765 kV line close to the bus. Accordingly, single pole opening (100 ms) of the
faulted phase and unsuccessful re-closure (dead time 1 second) followed by 3-
pole opening (100 ms) of the faulted line shall be considered.
 The system shall be able to survive a permanent Three-phase to ground fault on
a 400 kV line close to the bus to be cleared in 100ms.
 The system shall be able to survive a permanent single phase to ground fault on
a 400 kV line close to the bus. Accordingly, single pole opening (100ms) of the
faulted phase and unsuccessful re-closure (dead time 1 second) followed by 3-
pole opening (100ms) of the faulted line shall be considered.
 In case of 220 kV / 132 kV networks, the system shall be able to survive a
permanent Three-phase fault on one circuit, close to a bus, with a fault clearing
time of 160ms (8 cycles) assuming 3-pole opening.

6. LIGHT LOAD STUDY


Load flow study is simulated for year 2021-22 considering the system light load
conditions. Around 60% of system peak demand (44% of load at 11 kV and 33 kV level
and 100% of industrial and traction loads) is considered for the light load studies. From
the past data it is observed that system light load is occurring from October to December
period during which hydro generation is minimum. Hence, minimum hydro generation is
considered for light load studies. Further, generations from thermal units are reduced to
account for scheduled maintenance. All the existing reactors in Odisha along with PGCIL
proposed reactors have been considered in the present light load studies.
Light load study is carried out by reducing the loads at 33 kV buses for the year 2021-22.
Shunt capacitors at 33 kV buses of many 132/33 kV substations are switched off in order
to maintain the bus voltages within the voltage variation limits prescribed by the CEA’s
“transmission planning criteria”. Table 6.1, Table 6.2 and Table 6.3 provide the details of
state and central sector generations in Odisha, details of CGP generations and details of
IPP generations respectively. Load flow study results for light load studies are provided in
annexure.

6.1 Observations and recommendations
Observations from light load study results are given below,

 Around 255 MVAr of capacitor banks are switched off at 33 kV buses of many
132/33 kV substations out of a total of 1210 MVAr of capacitor banks considered
up to year 2021-22.
 It is observed that, voltage at 400 kV bus of proposed Narendrapur 400/220 kV
substation is close to 1.05 pu. Hence it is recommended to install 80 MVAr bus
reactor at Narendrapur 400/220 kV substation in order to control voltage during
light load condition.
 Also, 765 kV bus reactors 240 MVAr each at Begunia and OTPCL generation
switchyard, 2x240 MVAr 765 kV line reactors in Begunia to OTPCL 765 kV D/C
line at Begunia end and 2x240 MVAr 765 kV line reactors in Angul to OTPCL 765
kV D/C line at Angul end are considered in the study.
 With existing bus/line reactors and planned PGCIL bus/line reactors in Odisha, it is
observed that voltages at all the substations in Odisha are well within the voltage
limits prescribed by CEA.
