EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This section summarizes the System Impact Study (SIS) results for the Q184 generator interconnection project proposing to connect 620 MW to the Delaney 500 kV bus. The project is planned in four phases with Phase 1 planned to be completed in January of 2014, Phase 2 in September 2014, Phase 3 in May 2015, and Phase 4 in May 2015. Specific details of the proposed generation’s impact on the surrounding transmission system can be found in the “Results and Findings” section of this report. Disclaimer Nothing in this report constitutes an offer of transmission service or confers upon the Interconnection Customer any right to receive transmission service. APS and other interconnected utilities may not have the Available Transmission Capacity to support the interconnection described in this report. It should also be noted that the results in this SIS are dependent upon the assumed topology and timing of new projects, which are subject to change. Background: APS completed a Feasibility Study for this project in the third quarter of 2011. Under provisions of the Arizona Public Service Company (APS) Open Access Transmission Tariff (OATT), APS entered into a System Impact Study agreement with the Applicant in September 2011. The Applicant has requested the project be studied with both Network Resource Interconnection Service and Energy Resource Interconnection Service. APS has retained Utility System Efficiencies (USE) to perform the technical analysis. Figure E-1 shows a sketch of the proposed interconnection and the nearby transmission system.

As seen in Figure E-1, there are numerous generation interconnection requests in the area. The pre-existing Delaney generation interconnection requests total 1,500 MW as follows:
• APS Q38 – 400 MW of Solar at Delaney 500 kV bus as ER in March 2015. • APS Q39 – 800 MW of Solar at Delaney 500 kV bus as ER in March 2015. • APS Q56 – 300 MW of Solar at Delaney 500 kV bus as NR in January 2014.
What was studied: This System Impact Study (SIS) examined the effects upon the surrounding transmission system of interconnecting 620 MW of generation to the Delaney 500 kV bus. This SIS used the machine parameters and characteristics provided by the Applicant. Subsequent detailed Facilities Studies may want to revisit and tune specific generator parameters. Analyses for the proposed generator consisted of computer-based power flow studies, transient stability simulations, post-transient voltage stability studies, and short circuit/fault duty analysis. This study modeled the generation under 2015 and 2021 Summer Peak load conditions. Selected contingencies which stressed the transmission system were simulated. Power flow, transient stability, and post-transient results were monitored for APS, SRP, TEPC, SWTC, WAPA, SDG&E, SCE, and other neighboring systems; short circuit analyses were also performed. The Interconnection Customer is expected to follow APS’s power factor and low-voltage-ride-through criteria as stated in APS’s OATT as well as any applicable WECC standards. A power factor capability study was performed and noted in section 3.1 “Power Factor Capability Analysis.” System performance criteria used in the study: The criteria applied in this study are consistent with NERC/WECC Reliability Criteria. For more detailed information on the criteria used for each analysis see section 1.7 “Reliability Criteria.” Results: This study shows the project is required to install 100 MVAr of shunt reactive support in addition to the reactive capabilities of the turbines/inverters installed to achieve +/- 0.95 power factor at the point of interconnection. This upgrade is required for interconnection under all generation scenarios. The project also resulted new reliability criteria violations under pre-contingency and applicable (single element WECC Category B, and multiple element WECC Category C) outage conditions when other nearby generator interconnection projects are considered under 2021 conditions. Three projects are required under this condition to maintain system reliability:
1. Install a second Sun Valley 500/230 kV transformer. 2. Upgrade CAWCD’s Hassayampa Pump-Hassayampa Tap 230 kV line. 3. Incorporate Q184 into a generator tripping scheme that trips Delany generation greater than
810 MW following an outage of the Palo Verde-Delaney 500 kV line until the Sun Valley-Morgan 500 kV line project is complete.
When Q184 alone is considered, no new reliability criteria violations were detected. The results of this study may vary should the assumptions, used in this study, of the current transmission plans and higher queued interconnection requests around this area change. Prior to starting the Facilities Study, the latest transmission plans and interconnection queue should be considered, and may trigger re-examination of the results.

Sensitivity cases are run to assess the impacts of offsetting Q184 at various locations: Generation Dispatch Assumptions
• Offset output of Q184 at the Palo Verde Hub. • Offset output of Q184 at Four Corners.
All new IR generation added to the cases are offset throughout the AZ and adjacent systems proportionally according to load as follows:

The generation reduction will be distributed proportionally across each area according to their generation output. Base loaded units will be ignored. AZ generation will be reduced at the PV Hub due to normal loading concerns when all AZ units are proportionally reduced. The study used the 2014 Heavy Summer APS detailed planning case “sm14#09.sav” as the base model without the nearby IR generation. The case was then updated to reflect 2015 conditions. The study used the 2021 Heavy Summer APS detailed planning case “az21hs_final4.sav” as the base model with the nearby IR generation. Both cases have undergone review and updates by all of the Arizona utilities for planning purposes, and have corresponding dynamic data files that were used for transient stability analysis. A total of 11 study cases were created to properly study each study sensitivity. After loading the generation into the case. A pre-contingency overload of the Sun Valley 500/230 kV transformer triggered the need to create an additional set of cases that model the second parallel transformer in the 2021 cases. A pre-contingency overload of the Hassayampa Pump-Hassayampa Tap 230 kV line was observed in the 2021 post-project case when the project is offset at Four Corners. A 15th case was created that models this line upgrade under these conditions. Table 1-2 summarizes the cases utilized in this System Impact Study.

1.2 Power Flow Project Modeling APS Q184 connects to the Delaney 500 kV bus. The detailed power flow modeling at the Delaney substation is depicted in Figure 1-5 below. The project is comprised of eight combustion turbines that total 320MW, and three blocks of solar PV units that total 300MW. Each pair of CT units share a 13.8/69kV Generator Step-Up (GSU) transformer. The GSUs connect to a common 69kV bus that is then connected to a 500kV collector bus via a 69/500kV transformer. The three PV arrays each have a dedicated 34.5/69kV GSU transformer and a 1-mile dedicated 69kV tie line to a common 69kV bus. A 69/500kV transformer connects the PV project to the 500kV collector bus. A 1-mile 1590 Lapwing ACSR (2-bundled) 500kV transmission line connects the project to the Delaney 500kV bus. According to the data sheets provided by the applicant, the VAR capability for each CT unit is +/- 28 MVAR. The PV arrays will be capable of Qmax/Qmin +/- 32.9 MVAR. The power flow modeling at Delaney is depicted in Figure 1-5 below.

1.3 Dynamic Data Transient stability simulations were performed using the dynamic data files associated with the each seed case. Prior to the finalization of the cases and dynamics data sets, a flat-run and “bump test” were simulated to ensure true power system behavior was not masked by any remote dynamic modeling anomalies. The following changes were made to the cases and corresponding dynamic data files: 2015 Dynamic Data File:
1. Dynamic data file “AZ14hs_AZ_final4_aps.dyd” (developed for use with the sm14#09.sav base case) was obtained from APS Transmission Planning.
2. Dynamic models for Rocking Chair East and West, Q43, Q44, Q113, Q162, and Q184 were added.
2021 Dynamic Data File:
1. Dynamic data file “21hs12_final4.dyd” (developed for use with the az21hs_final4.sav base case) was obtained from APS Transmission Planning.
2. Dynamic models for APS queue Rocking Chair East and West, Q38, Q39, Q43, Q44, Q51, Q56, Q63, Q113, and Q184 were added.
3. Dynamic models for SRP queue Q2, Q3, Q8, Q9, Q13, and Q15 were added. Appendix C provides the transient stability models used in this study, and details of these assumptions. Modeling for the new generation utilized typical machine characteristics provided by the Applicant. A stability plot of the flat run and bump test simulation is also provided in Appendix C
.
1.4 Reliability Criteria In general, an evaluation of the system reliability investigates the system’s thermal loading capability, voltage performance (not too high or low), and transient stability (the system should not oscillate excessively and generators should remain synchronized). The evaluation of these criteria must be conducted for credible ‘emergency’ conditions, such as loss of a single or double circuit line, a transformer, or a generator (TPL-002 and TPL-003). Performance of the transmission system and neighboring Control Areas were measured against the Western Electricity Coordinating Council (WECC) Reliability Standards and the North American Electric Reliability Corporation (NERC) Planning Standards described in the following subsections. The criteria for Category A (TPL-001, “All lines in service”) and Category B (TPL-002, single element outage) conditions were explicitly applied both internally (within APS system) and to external Control Areas. (Steady-State) Power Flow Criteria
1.4.1 Power Factor Criteria The study applies APS power factor criteria that states a generator must be capable of providing dynamic reactive support within the range of +/-0.95 power factor at the POI.
1.4.2 Power Flow (Steady State) Criteria
• All line loadings must be less than 100% of their continuous (normal) thermal ratings. Normal Conditions
• All transformer loadings must be less than 100% of their continuous (normal) ratings.
• For TPL-002, a single (N-1) contingency or TPL-003, a double (N-2) contingency, no transmission element will be loaded above the emergency rating.
Contingency Conditions
• Depending upon the type of analysis and applied case/sensitivity, applicable criteria for system performance will be identified. In some instances, resulting local circuit overloads and/or voltage deviations may be deemed acceptable per local criteria; as long as the local system’s post-contingency performance does not result in cascading outages.
• Established loading limits and voltage performance for other neighboring utilities will be monitored.
Q184 System Impact Study APS Contract No. 52479
Page 14
• Voltage deviations at any bus must be no more than 5% for TPL-002, N-1 contingencies, and no more than 10% for TPL-003, N-2 contingencies.
1.4.3 Transient Stability Criteria With respect to the transient stability assessment of the system, this SIS applied the reliability criteria contained within the WECC disturbance-performance table of allowable effects on other systems.

2 STUDY METHODOLOGY This section summarizes the methods used to derive the power factor requirements, power flow, post transient, and transient stability results. Appendix B details the contingencies run for the study.
2.1 Power Factor Requirements The APS Open Access Transmission Tariff (OATT) policy regarding power factor requires all Interconnection Customers, with the exception of wind generators, to maintain an acceptable power factor (typically near unity) at the Point of Interconnection (POI), subject to system conditions. The APS OATT also requires Interconnection Customers to be able to achieve +/- 0.95 power factor at the POI, with the maximum "full-output" VAr capability available at all outputs. Furthermore, APS requires Interconnection Customers to have dynamic voltage control and maintain the voltage as specified by the transmission operator within the limitation of +/- 0.95 power factor, as long as the Project is online and generating. If the Project’s equipment is not capable of this type of response, a dynamic reactive device will be required. APS has the right to disconnect the Project from the power grid if system conditions dictate the need to do so in order to maintain system reliability. The method for determining whether or not the generator meets these requirements is to first record the pre-project POI bus voltage. Next, model the generator with zero reactive capabilities at full output. Any shunt devices are turned off. Two synchronous condensers are added to the case with infinite reactive capability. One is at the terminal bus of the unit regulating the bus voltage to 1.0 pu. The other is one bus away from the POI regulating the POI to the pre-project voltage level. The amount of plant losses can be determined by recording the MVAR flow at the POI and adding that to the sum of the synchronous condenser output. Based on the maximum output of the plant, determine the minimum reactive capabilities required to meet the +/-0.95 power factor range. The sum of the two numbers determines the maximum amount of reactive support the project must provide.
2.2 Power Flow Power flow analysis considers a snapshot in time where the transformer tap changers, SVD’s and, the phase shifters have not adjusted, and the system swing bus balances the system during each contingency scenario. All power flow analysis was conducted with version 17.0_06 of General Electric’s PSLF/PSDS/SCSC software. Power flow results were monitored and reported for APS and other neighboring systems, including TEP and SRP. Traditional power flow analysis was used to evaluate the thermal and voltage performance of the system under Category A (TPL-001, all elements in service) and Category B (TPL-002, N-1, single contingency) conditions. The applicable WECC reliability planning criteria is listed below.
• Changes in bus voltages from pre- to post-contingency must be less than 5% for single contingencies.
• All equipment loadings must be below their normal ratings under normal conditions. • All equipment loadings must be below their emergency ratings for single contingencies. • Depending upon the type of analysis and applied case/sensitivity, applicable criteria for system
performance will be identified. In some instances, resulting local circuit overloads and/or voltage deviations may be deemed acceptable per local criteria; as long as the local system’s post-contingency performance does not result in cascading outages.
Thermal loading was reported when a modeled transmission element was loaded over 98% of its appropriate MVA rating modeled in the power flow database and when the incremental change in loading, between Pre-Project and Post-Project, exceeded 1%. Transmission voltage violations for Category A (TPL-001, no contingency) conditions were reported where per unit voltages for <500kV buses were less than 0.95 or greater than 1.05 and per unit voltages for 500kV buses were less than 1.05 or greater than 1.08. For Category B outages (TPL-002, N-1) the voltage violations were reported when the post-contingency voltage deviation was greater than 5%.
Q184 System Impact Study APS Contract No. 52479
Page 16
2.3 Post Transient Post-transient analysis determines if the voltage deviations at critical buses meet the maximum allowable voltage dip criteria and if any transmission elements exceed their maximum rating for selected Category B (TPL-002, N-1) disturbances. This snapshot focuses on the first few minutes following an outage where the transformer tap changers, the phase shifters, and SVDs have not adjusted, and all of the system generation reacts by governor control to balance the system during each contingency scenario. All loads are modeled as constant power during the Post-Transient time frame. Generator VAR limits will be modeled as a constant single value for each generator since the reactive power capability curve will not be modeled in the power flow program. Alpha min and Gamma min of the PDCI and IPPDC will be adjusted to 5 degrees and 13 degrees, respectively. Shunt capacitors (132 MVAR) at Adelanto and Marketplace will be used if the post-transient voltage deviation exceeds 5% at those buses.
2.4 Transient Stability Transient stability analysis is a time-based simulation that assesses the performance of the power system during (and shortly following) a contingency. Transient stability studies were performed to verify the system stability following a critical fault on the system. Prior to finalization of the power flow and dynamic data set, a flat–run was run to ensure true power system behavior was not masked by any remote dynamic modeling anomalies. Transient stability analysis was performed based on WECC Disturbance-Performance Criteria for selected system contingencies. Initial transient stability contingencies were simulated out to 11 seconds to ensure a damped system performance. All simulated faults were assumed to be three-phase. Table 2.1 identifies the breaker clearing times for faults on different voltage levels.
Table 2.1 Breaker Clearing Times
Voltage Level Breaker clearing times
69 kV 7-cycles 115/161 kV 6-cycles 345/230 kV 5-cycles
500 kV 4-cycles All transient stability simulations were conducted using version 17.0_06 of General Electric’s PSLF/PSDS/SCSC software. The Worst Condition Analysis (WCA) tool, available in the PSDS software package, tracks and records the transient stability behavior of all output channels contained within the binary output file of a transient stability simulation. The monitoring of channel output was initiated two cycles after fault clearing, to ensure that all post-fault stability behavior would be captured. System damping was assessed visually with the aid of stability plots. Parameters Monitored to Evaluate System Stability Performance: Rotor Angle
Rotor angle plots provide a measure for determining how the proposed generation unit would swing with respect to other generation units in the area. This information is used to determine if a machine would remain in synchronism or go out-of-step from the rest of the system following a disturbance.
Bus Voltage
Bus voltage plots, in conjunction with the relative rotor angle plots, provide a means of detecting out-of-step conditions. The bus voltage plots are useful in assessing the magnitude and duration of post disturbance voltage dips and peak-to-peak voltage oscillations. Bus voltage plots also give an indication of system damping and the level to which voltages are expected to recover in steady state conditions.
Q184 System Impact Study APS Contract No. 52479
Page 17
Bus Frequency Bus frequency plots provide information on magnitude and duration of post-fault frequency swings with the new Project(s) in service. These plots indicate the extent of possible over-frequency or under-frequency, which can occur due to an area’s imbalance between load and generation.

3 RESULTS & FINDINGS This section provides the results obtained by applying the previous assumptions and methodology. It illustrates all findings associated with the power factor capability, power flow, post transient, and transient stability analysis.
3.1 Power Factor Capability Analysis The power factor capability of Q184 must meet the power factor requirement under all operating conditions. The project must be able to achieve the power factor requirement when only the solar portion of the project is online, when only the gas portion of the project is online, and when both the gas and solar portions are operating at full output.
This project does not satisfy the 0.95 power factor requirement when only the solar portion of the project is operating. The calculated plant losses are 93.8 MVAr resulting in a 0.99987 power factor capability when only the 98.7 MVAr dynamic capability of inverters are considered. A minimum of 100 MVAr of shunt capacitors are required in addition to the 98.7 MVAr dynamic capability of the solar inverters to satisfy the 0.95 power factor requirement.
All Solar No Gas Power Factor Capability
This project narrowly satisfies the 0.95 power factor requirement when only the gas portion of the project is operating. The calculated plant losses are 55.2 MVAr resulting in a 0.94998 power factor capability when the only the 224 MVAr dynamic capability of the gas turbines are considered.
All Gas No Solar Power Factor Capability
This project does not satisfy the 0.95 power factor requirement when both the gas and solar portions of the project are simultaneously operating at full output and only the dynamic reactive capability of the solar inverters and the gas turbines are considered. The calculated plant losses are 156 MVAr resulting in a power factor capability of 0.96570. A minimum of 40 MVAr of shunt capacitors are required in addition to the 322.7 MVAr of dynamic reactive support provided by the gas turbines and solar inverters to achieve 0.94848 power factor capability.
Full Gas and Full Solar Power Factor Capability
The worst case scenario for this project is when only the Solar portion of the project is on-line. Therefore, as shown above, the project needs to add a minimum of 100 MVAr of shunt capacitors in order to meet the power factor requirements.
3.2 Power Flow and Post Transient Analysis The power flow and post transient analysis focused on high load, high generation conditions for summer 2015 and summer 2021 conditions. The Pre-Project case was used as a baseline to measure the impact of the new generation and planned transmission upgrades. Contingencies were then applied to the cases. The list of contingencies simulated is provided in Appendix B. Selected plots from the cases under pre-contingency and post-contingency system conditions are included in Appendix A

3.2.1 2015 Thermal Results No issues to report. 3.2.2 2021 Thermal Results Numerous thermal overloads were observed in the 2021 contingency analysis. Pre-existing overloads on were observed in IID on the Coachella Valley 161/92 kV transformer and on the Dixiland-RTAP1-6 92 kV line following critical category C outages. The overloads are not noted in this section because the addition of the project had a minimal effect (approximately 1%-2%) upon the resulting overload. Numerous category C3 outages (N-1-1) resulted in thermal overloads when system adjustments were not applied and the Sun Valley-Morgan 500 kV line was not in-service. All thermal loading concerns can be mitigated with system adjustments which primarily consist of increasing generation in the Phoenix Valley and Eastern Arizona and reducing generation at the Palo Verde Hub. The amount of overloads following category C3 outages is significantly reduced when the Sun Valley-Morgan 500 kV line is in-service. System adjustments will still be required to mitigate thermal loading concerns although less severe. These results are not published in this section since the result is not attributed to the interconnection. The Gila Bend 230/69 kV transformer 2 is overloaded to 105% following an outage of the parallel Gila Bend 230/69 kV transformer 1 in all 2021 pre-project cases indicating a pre-existing issue. This result is not published in this section since the result is not attributed to the interconnection.
Table 3-1 shows the thermal loading results of the 2021 analysis where the nearby interconnection requests were modeled. The Sun Valley 500/230 kV transformer is overloaded under pre-contingency conditions regardless of the dispatch scenario. A second parallel 500/230 kV transformer at Sun Valley or the Sun Valley-Morgan 500 kV line is required to mitigation this issue.
2021 Heavy Summer Thermal Results (Cases 6-8)
In addition to the Sun Valley 500/230 kV transformer loading concern, the Hassayampa Pump-Hassayampa Tap 230 kV line is overloaded following an outage of the Sun Valley-Trilby Wash 230 kV line when the project is offset at Four Corners. The line will need to be upgraded to mitigate this thermal loading concern. Table 3-1. 2021 Thermal Loading Results

Case 06 07 08
The Sun Valley 500/230 kV transformer and Hassayampa Pump-Hassayampa Tap 230 kV line overload concerns are sufficiently mitigated without creating any new thermal loading concerns when the Sun Valley-Morgan 500 kV line is in-service.

2021 Heavy Summer Thermal Results with a Second Sun Valley 500/230 kV Xfmr (Cases 12-14) Table 3-2 shows the thermal loading results of the 2021 analysis where the second Sun Valley 500/230 kV transformer is placed in-service. The Sun Valley 500/230 kV transformer overload concern is sufficiently mitigated, but the change exacerbates the overload concern of the Hassayampa Pump-Hassayampa Tap 230 kV line overload. The line is overloaded under pre-project and both post-project dispatch scenarios. The second Sun Valley 500/230 kV transformer is not a sufficient mitigation project without also upgrading the Hassayampa Pump-Hassayampa Tap 230 kV line.

Case 12 13 14 2021 Heavy Summer Thermal Results with a Second Sun Valley 500/230 kV Xfmr and the Hassayampa Pump-Hassayampa Tap 230 kV Line Upgrade (Case 15) No overload concerns exist when both mitigation projects are in place. 3.2.3 Voltage Results The interconnection does not cause any voltage deviation violations. 3.3 Transient Stability Analysis Seventy-one (71) transient stability outages were simulated. Many of these transient stability simulations met Western Electricity Coordinating Council (WECC) Disturbance Performance Criteria. As referenced in the Reliability Criteria section of this report, the system should meet the following transient stability performance criteria for a NERC/WECC Category ‘B’ disturbance (N-1): • Transient voltage dip should not be below 25% at any load busses or 30% at any non-load busses at
any time. • The duration of a transient voltage dip greater than 20% should not exceed 20 cycles at load busses. • The minimum transient frequency should not fall below 59.6 Hz for more than 6 cycles at load
busses. Appendix D1
contains transient stability plots of selected contingencies that provide a representative illustration of the transmission system’s Pre-Project and Post-Project transient response.
3.3.1 2015 Transient Stability Results No issues to report. 1 Selected transient stability plots are provided in Appendix D; additional transient stability plots are available upon request.

3.3.2 2021 Transient Stability Results Without Morgan to Sun Valley 500 kV line A known transient stability concern was confirmed in the 2021 simulation. Loss of the Palo Verde-Delaney 500 kV line causes unstable oscillations to the generation at Delaney when only the Delaney-Sun Valley 500 kV line is in-service. An SPS is required to trip generation post-contingency until the Sun Valley-Morgan 500 kV line is constructed. The concern exists in the pre-project case where APS Q38, Q39, and Q56 are modeled. These projects total 1,500 MW of new generation at Delaney. Previous interconnection studies indicate an SPS is required to trip generation greater than 810 MW within 8 cycles from fault inception. The pre-project simulations performed in this study confirm those results. This study indicates that the additional generation provided by Q184 will need to participate in the generator tripping scheme in order to maintain transient stability. The total amount of generation armed to trip following the single-element outage of the Palo Verde-Delaney 500 kV line is therefore increased from 690 MW to 1,310 MW as a result of this interconnection. With Morgan to Sun Valley 500 kV line No issues to report. 3.4 Network Resource Interconnection Service Analysis The Q184 project has requested to be studies with both Energy Resource Interconnection Service (ERIS) and also Network Resource Interconnection Service (NRIS). This analysis discusses the deliverability of the output of the Q184 project to APS’s retail load under their NRIS request. This analysis does not evaluate the deliverability of the project’s output to any of the other load serving entities that are potential participants in the Delaney substation; which include SRP and CAWCD. The point of interconnection for the Q184 project is the future Delaney 500kV substation. The project is expected to be built in multiple phases. The projected in-service date for the first phase, which is 100 MW of solar PV, is January 2014. The projected in-service date for the second phase, which is an additional 100 MW of solar PV, is September 2014. The projected in-service date for the final phase, which is another 100 MW of solar PV and 320 MW of natural gas CTs, is May 2015. The current in-service date for the Delaney substation and the Palo Verde-Delaney 500kV line is scheduled to be approximately December 2013. The in-service date for the Delaney-Sun Valley 500kV and Sun Valley-Trilby Wash 230kV projects are currently planned for May 2014. At the Delaney substation there are three higher queued projects requesting interconnection (Q38, Q39, and Q56) totaling 1500 MW. However, of those projects, only Q56 has requested NRIS. Therefore, this NRIS analysis is using the assumption of the Q56 project being interconnected at the Delaney substation with 300 MW of NRIS. For the network request of the Q184 project, the project’s output can be delivered to APS at the Delaney substation. The current transmission plans for the Delaney substation have it initially connecting back to the Palo Verde Hub via the Palo Verde-Delaney 500kV line. This would give APS a transmission path from Delaney back to the Palo Verde Hub, which until the Delaney-Sun Valley 500kV and the Sun Valley-Trilby Wash 230kV lines are in-service will be the only path back to APS’s load. Since the initial build-out of Delaney will have the Palo Verde-Delaney 500kV line as a radial line, the thermal capacity of the line will be high enough to handle the 300 MW of the Q56 project and the 620 MW of the Q184 project and deliver it into the Palo Verde Hub. After getting to the Palo Verde Hub the Q184 project would be eligible to be delivered as a Network Resource along with all of the other resources APS currently owns/purchases at the Palo Verde Hub. After the Delaney-Sun Valley 500kV and the Sun Valley-Trilby Wash 230kV lines go into service that will add a new delivery path and additional scheduling capacity into the Phoenix load pocket for APS to
Q184 System Impact Study APS Contract No. 52479
Page 21
deliver resources. Currently, the additional capability expected2
in 2014 will be 188 MW. This is due to the limitation at the Trilby Wash end of the project. In 2015 the Trilby Wash-Palm Valley 230kV line is expected to go into service. Once that project is in-service it will alleviate the limitation at Trilby Wash and the expected limit will be the Sun Valley 500/230kV transformer. The Sun Valley substation is currently planned to initially only have one 500/230kV transformer rated at 600 MVA. Since the total output of both Q56 and Q184 is 920 MW, in-order to be able to deliver all of the output for both projects a second 500/230kV transformer would be needed. As part of the assumptions for this study, if all of the higher queued generation in APS’s queue in the Hyder Area and the Delaney substation develop, a second transformer is assumed in-service because it will be needed for reliability reasons.
After the Delaney-Sun Valley 500kV, the Sun Valley-Trilby Wash 230kV, and the Palm Valley-Trilby Wash 230kV lines are in-service, it is expected that the Sun Valley 230kV bus will become a delivery point internal to APS’s Phoenix load pocket and delivery of the Q184 project can be accepted at the Sun Valley 230kV bus. If there is only one 500/230kV transformer at Sun Valley the scheduling capacity to the Sun Valley 230kV bus will be limited to a maximum of 600 MW. If there are two 500/230kV transformers the scheduling capacity to the Sun Valley 230kV bus will be increased and may be able to accommodate both the Q56 and Q184 projects. However, the specific scheduling capacity across the two transformers would have to be determined by a rating study. 3.5 Short Circuit / Fault Duty Analysis Short circuit analysis of the proposed generator interconnection was performed by the APS Transmission Planning Department, using the CAPE program and parameters supplied by the Applicant. Fault duties were calculated for both single-phase-to-ground and three-phase faults at substation busses in the immediate surrounding area before and after the proposed generator installation. The results presented here assume a “worst-case” scenario, with all of the higher queued project’s generating units assumed on-line. However, in addition to the results shown here due to this projects proximity to the Palo Verde and Hassayampa switchyards there may be additional effects at those locations that would need to be explored in a System Impact Study. The analysis at Palo Verde and Hassayampa would be performed by SRP as the operator of those yards. This analysis shows that there may be some breakers above their fault duty capability, however it has been shown in the past that under a more detailed analysis there were no breakers over their capabilities. The factor examined in this study is the incremental fault duty shown at Palo Verde is less than 1 kA. Table 3.3 provides a comparison of fault duties at several local busses for both the Pre-Project and Post-Project conditions. The summary table also provides the minimum circuit breaker rating at each of these substations. Because the Sun Valley and Delaney substations have not yet been constructed there is no minimum circuit breaker rating to report. The circuit breakers for those substations will be ordered according to the needs at that time, with the assumption they will be at 63 kA or greater. Table 3.3. Short Circuit results

4 Generation and Transmission Mitigation This section discusses the possible generation curtailment and/or transmission mitigation projects required for interconnection. These mitigation projects may or may not be required for interconnection. The actual transmission system upgrades are more properly determined in a Transmission Service request because it addresses the actual scheduling of the facilities that will determine the true impacts to the transmission system. This study only makes assumptions about the dispatch of the project and the higher queued generators. Mitigation #1: Sun Valley Upgrades Condition: No Sun Valley-Morgan 500 kV line, with Nearby Interconnection Requests
The overload of the Sun Valley 500/230 kV transformer pre-contingency triggers the need for a second transformer. The second Sun Valley 500/230 kV transformer will be the same as the first. Addition of the second transformer creates a new overload of the Hassayampa Pump-Hassayampa Tap 230 kV line requiring it to be upgraded as well. CAWCD’s Hassayampa Pump-Hassayampa Tap 230 kV line (operated by Western) potentially overloads following an outage of the Sun Valley-Trilby Wash 230 kV line. The actual mitigation of this overload will need to be coordinated with CAWCD and Western. The mitigation project is potentially either installing an overload protection scheme on the line that opens it when flow exceeds its emergency rating or upgrading the 5.93 mile 230 kV line with 1272 ACSS rated at 936 MVA. This line is currently under study by Western as part of CAWCD’s request to interconnect the line into the Sun Valley substation. The results of that study will greatly impact the results of this line overload.
Mitigation #2: Delaney Generator Tripping Scheme Condition: No Sun Valley-Morgan 500 kV line, with Nearby Interconnection Requests
A transient stability concern requires Q184 to be added to a generator tripping scheme that would also include Q38, Q39, and Q56. With a total of 2120 MW of generation connected at Delaney, a total of 1,310 MW of generation would have to be armed to trip following an outage of the Palo Verde-Delaney 500 kV line.
Mitigation #3: Shunt Capacitor Addition for Power Factor Capability Condition: All Interconnection Conditions
This study shows the project is required to install 100 MVAr of shunt reactive support in addition to the reactive capabilities of the turbines/inverters installed. The cost of this equipment will not be estimated since the equipment will be installed and maintained by the customer.

5 Cost & Construction Time Estimates This section provides the cost estimates for interconnecting the project and for any transmission system upgrades, if needed. Also included are estimates for the construction timeline for each facility. If the in-service dates for transmission projects and timing of interconnections are different than what is assumed in this study, the costs for interconnection may be different than what is listed in this report.
5.1 Point of Interconnection cost – Delaney 500kV Switchyard The Q184 IC has requested interconnection to the future Delaney 500kV switchyard. At the time of this study the future Delaney switchyard, at the in-service date for this project, is currently planned to have as many as six terminations, however it also may not yet even be constructed. The Delaney substation is being planned for the interconnection of three FERC Large Generator Interconnection requests. Each of those requests are currently negotiating the LGIA, hence there is no guarantee that they will sign an interconnection agreement and move forward with their project. However, this study was performed with the assumption that at least one of the projects moves forward and the Delaney substation will be constructed as scheduled. If none of the three higher queued projects move forward, and hence the Delaney switchyard is not constructed as scheduled, the estimates provided in this study will no longer be valid. The Q184 project would then be the project triggering the construction on the Delaney switchyard and the costs would need to be revised. As shown in Figure 5.1, at the time of the Q184 project’s interconnection, the Delaney switchyard is assumed to be built with six 500kV line terminations in a breaker-and-a-half configuration. Given the location of the Q184 project, in relation to Delaney and the other assumed lines terminating at Delaney, the Q184 project is assumed to terminate in the southwestern bay. The Q184 project will require that the southern bays to be constructed, including two 500kV breakers which are shown in Figure 5.1 in red. Figure 5.1 shows a conceptual one-line diagram of the assumed Delaney configuration and the additions needed for the Q184 termination. The facilities shown in green are Transmission Provider’s Interconnection Facilities (TPIF) for the Q184 project, which consists of 2 A-frames, metering CTs & CCVTs, and a line disconnect switch. The TPIF also includes a span of 500kV conductor brought from the A-frames to the first structure outside of the Delaney fence line.

Table 5.2 summarizes all of the interconnection costs at the Delaney switchyard. The total costs for the facilities needed to interconnect are $4,336,930. Of the total costs, $2,572,641 is identified as network upgrades and $1,764,289 is identified as Transmission Provider’s Interconnection Facilities (TPIF).
Table 5.2. Cost Estimates – Q184 Interconnection
Description Network Upgrades for Q184 Q184 TPIF
New 500kV line bay at Delaney switchyard: 2 500kV breakers, 4 switches $2,572,641
Q184 500kV gen-tie exit: 2 A-frames, 1 switch, CTs & CCVTs, 1 500kV span $1,764,289
Total = $4,336,930 The design, permitting, procurement, and construction time of this substation would be approximately 18 months. Construction schedule estimates are from the date the Interconnection Customer provides written authorization to proceed, provided all interconnection agreements and funding arrangements are in place.
5.2 System Upgrades Given the study assumptions and the results of the study there were three system mitigations that have been identified in this study, as discussed in Section 4. The costs of those mitigations are discussed below. Mitigation #1: Sun Valley Upgrades
The study shows the need to add a second 500/230kV transformer at Sun Valley. Given the assumptions of this report, before the addition of the second 500/230kV transformer the Sun Valley 500kV bus is only going to be a three breaker ring. As shown in Figure 5.2 below, the addition of a second 500/230kV transformer would be the fourth 500kV element at the 500kV bus and would entail adding a new 500kV breaker, one switch, and other associated equipment to add a single 500kV bay. The additions at the 500kV bus are shown red. Also, before the addition of the second 500/230kV transformer the Sun Valley 230kV bus is assumed to have four terminations set-up in a four breaker ring configuration and the addition of a new termination would push the bus from a ring to a breaker and a half scheme. As shown in Figure 5.2 below, the addition of the second transformer would require extending the 230kV bus, adding an additional five 230kV breakers, four switches, and other miscellaneous substation equipment. The additions at the 230kV bus are shown in green.
Table 5.3. Cost Estimates – Sun Valley Upgrades
Description Estimate New 500kV termination: 1 500kV breakers, 1 switches $1,001,000
1 three phase 600MVA 500/230kV transformer $11,217,000
New 230kV termination: 5 230kV breakers, four switches $2,060,000
Total = $14,278,000

Figure 5.2: 500/230kV transformer addition at Sun Valley
It is estimated that adding a second 500/230kV transformer would take approximately 24 months from the date the Interconnection Customer provides written authorization to proceed, provided all interconnection agreements and funding arrangements are in place. Depending on the in-service schedule of the Sun Valley substation and the Q184 project, the 24 months may overlap the initial design, permitting, procurement, and construction of the Sun Valley substation.

Page 27
Mitigation #2: Delaney Generator Tripping Scheme This mitigation would require relatively minimal system upgrades; if any at all. The proposed generator tripping scheme, or RAS, should be able to be implemented using the communications and fiber optic equipment that is already a part of the plan of service for the Delaney switchyard. Also, any generation facility wishing to connect into APS’s transmission system is required to provide sufficient communications paths between their facility and the POI.
Mitigation #3: Shunt Capacitor Addition for Power Factor Capability
There will be no costs for this mitigation provided in this report. The Q184 project is responsible to meet APS’s power factor requirements and any additional equipment needed to meet the criteria should be part of their project design.

1. Applicant -defined data values employed for this study are shown in red bold. 2. This model can be used to represent a variety of prime movers controlled by PID
governors. It is suitable, for example, for representation of • gas turbine and single shaft combined cycle turbines • diesel engines with modern electronic or digital governors • steam turbines where steam is supplied from a large boiler drum or a large
header whose pressure is substantially constant over the period under study • simple hydro turbines in dam configurations where the water column length is
short and water inertia effects are minimal 3. Per unit parameters are on base of turbine MW capability. If no value is entered
for "mwcap", the generator MVA base is used. 4. The range of fuel valve travel and of fuel flow is unity. Thus the largest possible
value of vmax is 1.0 and the smallest possible value of vmin is zero. Vmax may, however, be reduced below unity to represent a loading limit that may be imposed by the operator or a supervisory control system. For gas turbines vmin should normally be greater than zero and less than wfnl to represent a minimum firing limit. The value of the fuel flow at maximum output must be less than, or equal to unity, depending on the value of Kturb. If the initial power requires a fuel flow greater than 1.0, a warning message is written and Kturb is increased to permit initialization with valve position = 1.0.
5. The parameter Teng is provided for use in representing diesel engines where there is a small but measurable transport delay between a change in fuel flow setting and the development of torque. Teng should be zero in all but special cases where this transport delay is of particular concern.
6. The parameter Flag is provided to recognize that fuel flow, for a given fuel valve stroke, can be proportional to engine speed. This is the case for GE gas turbines and for diesel engines with positive displacement fuel injectors. Flag should be set to unity for all GE gas turbines and most diesel engines. Flag should be set to zero where it is known that the fuel control system keeps fuel flow independent of the engine speed.
7. The load limiter module may be used to impose a maximum output limit such as an exhaust temperature limit. To do this the time constant Tfload should be set to represent the time constant in the measurement of temperature (or other signal), and the gains of the limiter, Kpload, Kiload, should be set to give prompt stable control when on limit. The load limit can be deactivated by setting the parameter Ldref to a high value.
8. The parameter Dm can represent either the variation of the engine power with the shaft speed or the variation of maximum power capability with shaft speed.
If Dm is positive it describes the falling slope of the engine speed verses power characteristic as speed increases. A slightly falling characteristic is typical for reciprocating engines and some aero-derivative turbines. If Dm is negative the engine power is assumed to be unaffected by the shaft speed, but the maximum permissible fuel flow is taken to fall with falling shaft speed. This is characteristic of single-shaft industrial turbines due to exhaust temperature limits.
9. This model includes a simple representation of a supervisory load controller. This controller is active if the parameter Kimw is non-zero. The load controller is a slow acting reset loop that adjusts the speed/load reference of the turbine governor to hold the electrical power output of the unit at its initial condition value. This value is stored in the parameter Pmwset when the model is initialized, and can be changed thereafter. The load controller must be adjusted to respond gently relative to the speed governor. A typical value for Kimw is 0.01, corresponding to a reset time of 100 seconds.
10. The load reference of the supervisory load control loop is accessible as the parameter, Pmwset. Pmwset is given a value automatically when the model is initialized. This value overwrites any value entered prior to initialization. This parameter should not be manipulated by the manual operation or an EPCL program prior to the execution of the “INIT’ command.
11. The parameters aset, Ka, and Ta describe an acceleration limiter. Ta must be non-zero, but the acceleration limiter can be disabled by setting aset to a large value, such as 1.
12. The parameter, db, is the speed governor dead band. This parameter is stated in terms of per unit speed. In the majority of applications of ggov1 it is recommended that this value be set to zero.
13. The parameters, Tsa, Tsb, are provided to augment the exhaust gas temperature measurement subsystem in gas turbines. For example, they may be set to values such as 4., 5., to represent the ‘radiation shield’ element of large gas turbines. If both parameters are left off the end of the parameter list, they default to 1.0.
14. The parameters, rup, rdown, specify the maximum rate of increase and decrease of the output of the load limit controller (Kpload/Kiload). These parameters should normally be set, or defaulted to 99/-99, but may be given particular values to represent the temperature limit controls of some GE heavy-duty engine controls. If both parameters are left off the end of the parameter list, they default to 99 and –99.
15. The fuel flow command (fsr) is determined by whichever is lowest of fsrt, fsra, and fsrn. Although not explicitly shown in the block diagram, the signals that are not in control track fsr so that they do not “windup” beyond that value. This represents GE gas turbine control practice but may not be true for other controller designs.
16. As shown in the block diagram, when Kpgov is non-zero, the governor PI control is implemented to “track” fsr to prevent windup when fsr is limited by another signal (fsrt, fsra) or Vmax/Vmin. If Kpgov is zero, the integral path is
implemented directly. The same applies to the load limiter PI control with regard to Kpload.
17. The “fix bad data” option will do the following: a. Set Ta, Tpelec, Tfload, and Tb to a minimum of 4*delt. b. If non-zero, set Tact, Tsb and Tdgov to a minimum of 4*delt c. Set Kturb to a minimum of 0.1. d. If Vmax < Vmin, swap the values. e. If Vmax > 1., set to 1. f. If Vmin < 0., set to 0.

Notes:
1. Applicant -defined data values employed for this study are shown in red bold. 2. Te and Tf must be non-zero. If Tr or Tdr are zero, the respective blocks are
bypassed. Kpa and Kpi must not be zero if their corresponding integral gains are zero.
3. To disable the rate feedback, set Kf3 = 0.
4. Saturation parameters are consistent with the IEEE saturation factor definition using the open circuit magnetization of the exciter. Either point [E1, S(E1) or E2, S(E2)] may be the higher value and the other the lower.
5. The upper limit on Ve (s3) represents the effect of the field current limiter. If Vfemax is zero, this limit will not be enforced.
6. If spdmlt is omitted from the input data, it is set to 0 (disabled) to be consistent with the IEEE model, which does not have this option.
7. In the IEEE Std 421.5 – 2005 document, the denominator of integrator s3 in the block diagram below is written as “1 + sTE” - this is incorrect. The block diagram below shows the correct notation: “sTe”.
8. If Kp is set to zero, the term KpVt (input to multiplier) defaults to one. 9. The “fix bad data” option will do the following:
a. Set Te and Tf to a minimum of 4*delt. b. If non-zero, set Tr and Tdr to a minimum of 4*delt c. If Vfemax is non-zero, set it to a minimum of 3. d. If Vrmax < Vrmin, swap the values. e. If Vamax < Vamin, swap the values.
