Why Prepare the Studies? © 2000 PACIFICORP | PAGE 3 – FERC/WECC required – Provides a good round map for future – Provides justification for new system additions
Who is invited? Any individual is welcome City and Municipal officials Generation producers Large industrial users Equipment producers © 2000 PACIFICORP | PAGE 4 – – –
Third Party Contributions – Load and Forecast Projects – New Points of Delivery – Anticipated Future System Upgrades 4 Including block load increases © 2000 PACIFICORP | PAGE 5 – System Power Flow Model
Basic Understanding of the Study – Field Study Document equipment 4 Verify system ratings and settings 4 – Identify System Problems & Future Recommendations – Generate a Report Brief Understanding of the Area 4 List Equipment ratings 4 Fault duties, operation schemes 4 Lists system “Problems and Future Recommendations” © 2000 PACIFICORP | PAGE 6 4
Study Restrictions – CIPS 4 The reliability of the energy grid depends not only on physical assets, but cyber assets. The North American Electric Reliability Corporation (NERC) realized that, along with protecting the physical assets, Critical Cyber Assets also need to be protected to keep the energy grid secure. © 2000 PACIFICORP | PAGE 7 – Confidentiality
