The applications are discussed in detail in the following paragraphs. Here it is to inform that CERC in its order dated in Petition No: 420/MP/2014 directed that wind developers should comply with the provision of LVRT (Low Voltage Ride Through). Further, the wind developers shall provide adequate reactive compensation so that under all dispatch scenarios Power Factor 1

6 Additional agenda for 21 st Meeting of SR for /LTA s of 0.98 shall be maintained at injection point. It may also be noted that as per the Regulations, the Grant of shall not entitle an applicant to inter-change any power with the grid unless it obtains LTA, MTOA or STOA. Further, since MTOA & STOA are granted on the margins available in the corridor and assured transfer of power is granted only with the LTA, therefore, the applicants are advised to apply for the LTA to assure power evacuation & transfer to its beneficiaries under LTA. 2.0 s with connectivity at Tirunelveli/Tuticorin area s at Sl. No. 1 to 5 (Table-1) are seeking connectivity in Tuticorin or Tirunelveli area. Presently, there is no provision of 230kV voltage level at Tuticorin Pooling station. Accordingly, connectivity for all the 5 IPPs have been considered at Tirunelveli PS. Here it may be mentioned that till date 1700 MW connectivity & 300 MW LTA has been agreed to various IPPs at Tirunelveli PS as per following details: Table 2: Details of earlier agreed /LTA s at Tirunelveli PS Agreed (MW) LTA Agreed (MW) M/s Suzlon Power Infrastructure (Chandragiri Wind farm) M/s Suzlon Power Infrastructure (Kumarapuram Wind farm) M/s Suzlon Power Infrastructure (Kadambur Wind farm) Chandragiri, Kayathar, Tamil Kumarapuram, Kayathar, Tamil Kadambur, Kayathar, Tamil (NR-40 MW & NER-35 MW) 75 (NR-40 MW & NER-35 MW ) 75 (NR-40 MW & NER-35 MW ) 4.
