Access and Connection processes for Renewable Units:
Experiences from Red Eléctrica de España
Istambul March 2011
RED ELÉCTRICA DE ESPAÑA
Recently, National regulation oriented to control of generation to be connected per year,
securing economic and technical sustainability
RD1578/2008 for Solar FV, extending RD661 objectives with quotas of 500-400 MW per year with progressive reduction of tariffs
emphasis on roof plants over floor plants
RDL6/2009 for the rest of SRG, establishing quotas per year for plants to be commissioned (upto ≈ 2,5 GW Solar Thermal in 2013; upto ≈ 23 GW Wind in 2012), demonstrating some pre-requisites:
Access and connection authorization issued by REE or distribution company
Administrative authorization for power plants > 100 kW
License for Commissioning
Deposit of a bank guarantee (for wind: 20€/kW; for Solar Thermal: 100€/kW)
Financial resources at least for 50% of the total
Purchase -or contract- at least for 50% of the equipment
Authorisation for gas access and water supply (when applicable)
Recent modifications of regulation for Special Regime Generation (SRG)
RED ELÉCTRICA DE ESPAÑA
3
Capacity of the Transmission Network for Generators:
General: No grid capacity reserve or preference derives from temporal precedence. Possible production constraints are to be solved by market mechanisms
No connection limitation: Newcomers may degrade the production possibilities of existing or previously foreseen
Less barriers but more uncertainty tendency to overinstallation
Special Regime Generation
Priority at dispatch, subject to system security operation risk
Congestions motivate system development ineffective planning
Connection limitation according to zonal studies from OS
Development and Access to the Network
RED ELÉCTRICA DE ESPAÑA
Number of Access applications very over some
transmission nodes evacuation capacity
Regional limits for installing new generation
Wind farms building time much shorter than needed for
network developments necessary for connection
Permissions for new generation (via Regional
Administration) easier to get than network reinforcement
ones
Network Access and Connection: Transmission grid development implications from RES units
RED ELÉCTRICA DE ESPAÑA
5
Interaction between Grid Planning and Access to the grid applications
Access to the grid Regulated continuous process
by which REE assess the
acceptability of non-
transmission facilities
applications
Grid Planning• REE carries out planning studies and proposals
• National Goverment (with Regional Administrations):
approve the grid development plan
• Every 4 years, new planning horizon (10 years)
Binding (unlike indicative planning for generation)
The actual development of the grid (authorization, construction and commissioning) takes from 1 to more than 10 years
Studies for SRG Integration
RED ELÉCTRICA DE ESPAÑA
6
A new perspective is introduced
From ¿What capacity of integration ?
To ¿Which conditions and requisites
would be needed to maximize secure integration of SRG (RES) and achieve the foreseen objectives?
SRG Integration Studies
Regulation Proposals
Grid Studies Zonal connection capacity in MW
Bulk System or Coverage Studies(Single Bus System Adequacy Studies)
Estimation of Operation Conditions

Capacity Studies
Assessment of generation limits to preserve adequacy and security of power
system, according to planning and operation criteria, applied to an horizon within the
current medium term grid development plan
Adequacy: Assessment of generation limits by nodes and zones,
reflecting structural grid capacity
Steady State Behaviour (load flow contingency analysis)
Short-circuit power (5% Scc, for non dispatchable fluctuant
generation)
Security: Validation of previously concluded limits by nodes and zones
Dynamic behaviour (stability after short-circuit)
Design criteria: buses with sufficient meshing, minimum magnitud for
generation, …..
RED ELÉCTRICA DE ESPAÑA
8
Preserving the security of supply requires to avoid persistent constraints from RES units in order to:
Limit the operational risk associated to the solution of constraints and the security guarantee, specially considering the dispatch priority
Enable a coherent and efficient grid development
This calls for establishing connection capacities by zone associated to grid development plans which may avoid permanent constraints
Development and Access to the Network for Renewable Generators (RES): Connection Capacity

Access and Connection : Overview Procedures for Access and connection are managed by REE, as System
Operator and and Transmission owner. Main Features:
Main Perspective Object - Scope
Access System Operation System behaviour
Connection Transmission Engineering and Physical Feasibility
Connection Contract (CC)
REE carries out capacity studies at nodal and regional levels Capacity of Connection
Regional Administrations identify Coordinator (C) and generators
C accomplish Access and Connection Procedures Connection Authorisation
Connection Authorisation enables Administrative Authorisation
Administrative Authorisation enables Connection Contract with Transco
Administrative process (*) different according to Regions
Recently, new national regulation oriented to control of generation to be connected per year, securing economic and technical sustainability (National Administration)

Access and Connection : Overview
Procedures
Access Application (m = month)
Connection to Transmission >>> SO (REE)
Connection to Distribution (> 10 MW.) > DO> SO (REE)
REE issues a report evaluating access feasibility, fulfilling system security criteria
Connection Application >>> Trans.Co.
Agent submits engineering Project and Programme
Trans.Co. elaborates Report of Technical Conditions for Connection
SO (REE) supervises and issues a report

Access approach for special generation REE carries out Regional studies assessing capacity connection for
generation (depending on energy source and technology), which are sent and presented to Regional Adm.
Individual Applications: Access reply is informative not valid for connection procedure
Regional Adm. Identify (*) generators according and nominates Coordinator
Coordinator submits access application with the aggregation of individual plants sharing connection point and facilities
REE replies according to the Regional study, accomplishing access procedure and enabling to start and accomplish connection procedure: Connection Authorisation
Connection Authorisation enables Administrative Authorisation

RES generation does not avoid distribution grid but requires transmission expansion, where the majority of Wind Power (>60%) and Solar Thermal (>80%) is expected. RES is a relevant motivation in the current Plan:
new lines and reinforcements for avoiding constrains operation
facilities associated to physical connection
Main challenges: Grid Development
Particular significance: Spain-France interconnection
