12 The LTA applications of M/s Orange Sironj Wind Power Pvt. Ltd. (OSWPPL) and M/s Mytrah Energy (India) Pvt. Ltd. (MEIPL) were discussed in the 22 nd meeting of Southern Region constituents regarding Connectivity/LTA Applications of IPPs in SR held on During the meeting, it was deliberated that the LTA of 300 MW {MEIPL-75 MW & Suzlon - 3x75 MW} has already granted at Tirunelveli PS and with the grant of LTA of 200 MW to M/s Orange Sironj Wind Power Pvt. Ltd. at Tirunelveli,, total 500 MW of LTA shall be evacuated from 2x500 MVA transformers at Tuticorin-II PS (erstwhile Tirunelveli PS GIS). Further for the grant of additional 225 MW of LTA to MEIPL, augmentation of 1x500 MVA transformer at Tuticorin-II PS was agreed for considering N-1 redundancy criteria at Tirunelveli PS. Subsequently, CERC has notified the Detailed Procedure for Grant of connectivity to projects based on renewable sources to ISTS on as per which the LTA shall be granted along with grant of Stage-II Connectivity or after the grant of Stage-II Connectivity. In line with the above, SPIL is deemed Stage-I Connectivity grantee and the LTA granted for 3x75 MW is to be considered upon receipt of Stage-II Connectivity application. Accordingly, it was proposed that the LTA to OSWPPL (200 MW) and MEIPL (225 MW) may be granted with the existing transmission system and LTA to M/s Green Infra Renewable Energy Ltd. for MW may be granted with the augmentation of 1x500 MVA (3 rd ) 400/230kV transformer at Tuticorin-II GIS (erstwhile Tirunelveli GIS PS). The representative of MEIPL informed that they have won the SECI bid for 250 MW only and therefore would like to reduce the LTA quantum of the application from 225 MW to 175 MW as per the provisions of the Detailed Procedure and submitted the formal request vide letter dated The representative of M/s Green Infra Renewable Energy Ltd. has stated that as per the Transmission Planning Criteria para-16.2 the N-1 criteria may not be applied to the immediate connectivity of wind/solar farms with the ISTS/Intra-STS grid i.e. the line connecting the farm to the grid and the step-up transformers at the grid station and accordingly they may be granted the LTA on the existing transmission system with 2x500 MVA transformers at Tuticorin-II GIS. Towards this CTU had opined that as per the planning philosophy and the general guidelines of the Transmission Planning Criteria, the transmission system is generally augmented to cater to the long term requirements and to operate within permissible limits both under normal as well as credible contingency(ies). Representative of SRLDC stated that the N-1 contingency of the transformer shall be considered for grant of LTA, as under the outage of one transformer the other transformer may also trip due to the overloading conditions and may cause disturbance in the grid. 8

13 Member (PS), CEA stated that the Transmission Planning Criteria has been formed after the detailed deliberations and feedbacks from the stakeholders as well as the wind/solar generation developers wherein it is specifically provided that N-1 may not be considered for the wind/solar generation for immediate connectivity including step-up transformers at the grid station. Representative of TANGEDCO stated that the implementation of the termination bays at ISTS stations shall not be taken-up without having commitment from the wind developers to bear the applicable charges and firm beneficiaries through a suitable agreement. In this regard, it was clarified that the proposal for grant of Stage-II Connectivity and LTA are for SECI bid winners from Tranche-I to IV and shall have the firm PPAs through SECI. After detailed deliberations, it was agreed that the N-1 criteria may not be applied to the immediate connectivity of wind/solar farms with the ISTS/Intra-STS grid i.e. the line connecting the farm to the grid and the step-up transformers at the grid station and in case of outage of the Transformer at Tuticorin-II GIS, suitable mechanism including SPS for backing down the corresponding generation on pro-rata basis of wind generators may be incorporated by the applicants at their own cost in consultation with POSOCO and SRPC. Accordingly, LTA to the following applications was agreed to be granted with existing transmission system and 2x500MVA transformer at Tuticorin-II GIS. Further to cater to the long term requirements, augmentation of 3 rd, 1x500 MVA transformer at Tuticorin-II GIS has already been agreed. Sl.
