Project 2010-14.2 - Phase 2 of Balancing Authority Reliability-based Controls: Time Error, AGC, and Inadvertent



 Standard(s) included in the project

Applicability
There are no items to show in this view of the "Standard(s) included in the project" list.

 Purpose of the drafting/revisions

The purpose of this project is to ensure that Balancing Authorities take actions to maintain interconnection frequency with each Balancing Authority contributing its fair share to frequency control.
This project is intended to address the following:
-FERC Final Rule “Mandatory Reliability Standards for the Bulk-Power System, FERC Order 693” on the NERC standards BAL-002.
-Issues raised by stakeholders and compliance teams related to BAL-001-0.1a Real Power Balancing Control Performance and BAL-002-1 Disturbance Control Performance.
-To ensure that when finalized, the standards associated with this project conform to the latest versions of NERC’s Reliability Standards Development Procedure. 

 Status

The NERC Standards Committee approved the merger of Project 2007-05 Balancing Authority Controls and Project 2007-18 Reliability-based Control as Project 2010-14 Balancing Authority Reliability-based Controls on July 28, 2010.  The NERC Standards Committee also approved the separation of Project 2010-14 Balancing Authority Reliability-based Controls into two phases and moving Phase 1 (Project 2010-14.1 Balancing Authority Reliability-based Controls – Reserves) into formal standards development on July 13, 2011.  The Standard Drafting Team is presently revising BAL-001-0.1a Real Power Balancing Control Performance and BAL-002-1 Disturbance Control Performance and drafting a new standard to address planning for Regulating, Contingency and Frequency Responsive Reserves.  It is anticipated that the three standards will be posted for a 30-day formal comment period in mid-December, 2011.
