Power Evacuation

What is Power Evacuation System study?

Solar PV project developers have to focus to optimize system in terms of optimum yield. It is very significant to consider whether the energy generation by PV system can be absorbed by the Utility grid, If the grid parameters are not studied properly the profitability and viability of PV projects becomes question mark.

For any new generation planned, safe connectivity to the grid is paramount important for securing the project for long time. Hence thorough complete load flow study of the integrated network of the utility, power evacuation study will be conducted.

Power evacuation is a critical function that allows generated power to be immediately evacuated from the Solar/Wind/any other Generation plant to the grid for distribution. Ensmart with its highly experienced team of professionals cater to this requirement, thus ensuring the energy from the Solar/Wind farm is being evacuated into the Utility Grid.

Why it is to be conducted by solar/ wind IPP?

It is very significant to have a stable grid for consistent power evacuation; the grid stability is function of various parameters such has the level of grid substation at which the PV project is connected.
Power evacuation studies will be carried out to check Generation feasibility of the various technical and economical parameters to give complete insight into the project Risk & mitigation factors to the investor for taking appropriate decision.
Need to check for the adequacy of the existing or proposed utility substations and transmission lines for proposed generation & to ensure no backing down of generation under all possible scenario’s of load v/s generation.
Many time the grid operator have the feeling that connecting solar PV system will make the grid unstable as the generation from solar is intermittent; variable in nature. Hence there is a need to carry out a proper “LOAD FLOW STUDY” before interconnecting a solar PV system with the grid.
Evolve mitigation measures to evacuate the power from the proposed wind farm in case if transmission system congestion.
Impact of on generation in case of (N-1) contingency condition.

Advantage of doing Power Evacuation System study

Can select , segregate & invest in right projects among many projects under plan.
Will come to know whether project size can be enhanceable & up to what capacity. To secure investment on the generation project & to mitigate Risk factors.

Both wind and solar is a intermittent & generally not controllable with high degree of variation can bee seen. Hence simulation of such generation with an integrated network, detailed studies is necessary to assess the capability and reliability of the grid to evacuate the power from the such source.
