Scheduled Generator or
Dispatchable Load)
Name of the Facility from which the
Service is proposed to be provided
Location of the Facility from which the Service is proposed to be provided
Does the Facility to be used to provide the Service already exist?
If the Facility already exists can it meet the performance requirements now?
If the Facility already exists and cannot meet the performance requirements now, please provide the expected earliest date that the
Facility will be available to provide the Service
If the Facility does not already exist, please provide the expected earliest date that the Facility will be available to be fully operational and able to provide the Service

1.1 Facilities
If the Services are to be provided by a Generator, the Recipient proposes that the Services be provided using the following facilities:
Recipient’s Generator
1.2 Levels of performance
If the Services are to be provided by a Generator, the Recipient must outline the expected levels of performance as follows:
Performance Requirement
Does the Generator have a Governing System that can monitor and controls the generating unit output at an agreed Raise and Lower
Ramp Rate?
Does the governing system comply with the requirements of the
Technical Rules?
Will the Governing System accept and respond to AGC signals ordering the raising or lowering of the output of the Generator to a desired level?
Is the Generator fitted with a monitoring device that can send signals to SM’s AGC System for the following quantities at intervals of at least once every 8 seconds:

Generator output level

Dispatch Point in MW

High Economic Limit in MW

Low Economic Limit in MW

High Operating Limit in MW

Low Operating limit in MW

Control Selection (Local/Remote)
Time to respond to a raise or lower signal from SM’s AGC System
(must respond within 5 seconds).
Percentage of time during which the Generator will be available to deliver the Load Following Service in any rolling 12-month period excluding any period during which it is undergoing an Approved
Outage.
Will the Generator be continuously available to provide the Load
Following Service when initiated, dispatched and, called upon, or instructed to be available?
Minimum Raise Ramp Rate (at least 2 MW/minute is required).
