Significant Environmental Benefits

Significant assistance in Retirement of Older Generation in San Francisco

Clean system power will serve San Francisco; including Emissions Reduction from 36 MW peak power production reduction

If CCSF Peakers installed with Trans Bay Cable Project, Peakers will Operate Less

Page 33: IEEE PES HVDC Systems & Trans Bay CableWhy HVDC Systems? HVDC is the solution for long submarine transmission. Solution: HVDC Cable Up to 800 MW Long Submarine Transmission AC AC DC

Enhanced ReliabilityPittsburg – San Francisco line “Completes the Greater Bay Area (“GBA”) transmission loop”

System security increased as buried DC cables will be in a separate corridor from any existing AC lines

Reduced power flow on existing Peninsula and East Bay lines, benefiting entire GBA

No problems found in N-1, N-2 contingency analyses using std criteria used by California ISO (including special criteria for GBA) and WECC

Steady State Interaction

•Dispatched like a ‘generator’• Power control is much faster than a generator.• Reactive power behavior is different from a generator. Real and

reactive power of the HVDC converter is not independent.

•HVDC does not contribute to short-circuit fault duty.

•Predicted annual availability of the converter is higher than 96%• Minimal scheduled outages required for maintenance - short

duration.• Fully redundant control and protection system also increases the

availability.

Enhancements of the Power System using DC Technology

•The HVDC real power can be controlled very rapidly, therefore, the converter can be used to improve the power system performance.

•Special Protection Schemes (SPS) can be implemented for:• Fast frequency control• Power ramping (up or down)• Damping of Power Oscillations• Improvement of Transient Stability• Voltage is kept in a defined ‘bandwidth’ determined by ‘local’

interconnection study

• Interaction with Potrero SVC (-100/ + 240)• Control parameters may have to be adapted to avoid control oscillations.

• Conclusion• Do not expect any problems between the AC and DC Interaction.

• Simultaneous lay & burial → cable immediately protected (no cable exposure)

• Very effective burial method using Hydro-plow•Jetting power focused on excavation only•Jetting power is not used for machine propulsion•Minimum trench cross-section

• Cable is taken to the trench bottom by stinger

• Single pass → low installation time

• Simple machine → low contingencies
