Acadiana Load Pocket ProjectUpdate

Acadiana Load Pocket

Acadiana Load Pocket ProjectYear 2010 Progress Report

• Flanders – Hopkins 138KV Transmission line tapped for new Segura substation.

• New Segura 230/138KV Cleco substation Phase I completed– 138KV facilities are presently energized– 230KV facility commission is scheduled for the end of second quarter

2011

• New Segura – Moril 138KV Transmission line completed & connected to Segura 138KV bus

ALP Project Update – Summer 2010

•Cleco- 230KV Segura Substation

•Cleco- Segura to Moril 138KV Trans. Line (0.2 mi)

Note: Hopkins – Flanders 138KV line is tapped for new Segura substation. Just 138KV bus is energized at this point.

Cleco 2011 Transmission Construction PlanCleco 2011 Transmission Construction Plan


Budgeted Projects

• Near term projects deal with Cleco’s obligations to the Acadiana Load Pocket Project and the Reliable operation of the Bulk Electric System.

Cleco 2011 Transmission Cleco 2011 Transmission ConstructionConstruction PlanPlanBudgeted

Projects

• Build a new 230KV Transmission line from Wells to the LUS Labbe Substation• Reconductor existing Segura – Hopkins 138KV transmission line (This will complete Cleco’s participation in the ALP project.)• Second 230/138KV Autotransformer at Cocodrie Substation

2012

• Construction of a new Rork 230KV Substation adjacent to the one at Richard• Build a new 230KV Transmission line from Rork to the Sellers Road Substation• Construction of a new 230KV Sellers Road Substation• Build a new 230KV Transmission line from Sellers Road to the Segura Substation• Construction of a new Mansfield Compressor 230KV Substation tapping Dolet Hills – Fisher 230KV line• Construction of a new Clarence – Maurice 69KV transmission line• Transmission element replacements on Plaisance – Coughlin 138KV transmission line

Long Range Planning- 5 years or greater

• System models used in the analysis go out 5 years and beyond •Inputs are extrapolated from short term planning estimates•Accuracy is therefore limited•Results are given leeway in terms of interpretation

•Long Term Planning does allow the identification of potential areas of concern•Attention is given to those problems that remain consistent over model runs especially those that get closer to the present•Typically, there is enough time to develop mitigation plans and fund projects

•Long Range Planning Analysis has identified some areas of concern•These occur at the end of the planning horizon•At this time, these areas don’t warrant the outlay of capital but will be noted

Bus Under Voltage

Cleco 2011 Construction PlanCleco 2011 Construction Plan2022 Study

CasesBus under voltage Violations

Mitigation: Investigate installation of capacitor banks at Pine Prairie.

Pine Prairie 138KV Bus Voltage 0.8907 P.U.

Most limiting Contingency: Coughlin – Pine Prairie 138KV Line

Oakdale 138KV Bus Voltage 0.8979 P.U.

Mitigation: Investigate installation of capacitor banks at Plaisance.

Most limiting Contingency: Coughlin – Plaisance 138KV Line

Plaisance 138KV Bus Voltage 0.885 P.U.

Agenda

• Introduction





• Model Review


• Final Questions

• Adjourn

• New NERC standards mandated Cleco to re-evaluate all 100KV and above Transmission Line Ratings including the following elements:– Breakers– Switches– Conductor– Jumpers– Bus– CT Ratios– Wave Traps– Relay Setting Limits

Results of Analysis

• Upgrade of multiple lines whose limiting element created base case overloads

• Since 2010– Changed Normal Rating temperature basis from 85° to 93°C

• Increased Normal Ratings

– Changed Normal and Emergency Rating procedures for jumpers

• Increased Normal and Emergency Ratings

• Comparison of 2010 to 2011 SPP series of models:

– Cleco Transmission lines 100KV or greater• 51% had their A rating increase

– 8% had their A rating decrease

• 13% had their B rating increase– 1% had their B rating decease

– Cleco Tie Lines• 11% had their A rating increase

– 49% had their A rating decrease

• 19% had their B rating increase– 28% had their B rating decrease

• Refer to the SPP models for specific line ratings
