6
US Industry structure - utilities
  • Traditionally given a monopoly franchise
  • In exchange, subject to regulation
  • State and Federal
  • Most are distribution only
  • Many remain vertically integrated (G, T D)
  • 3200 US electric utilities
  • Four types

7
US Industry structure - utilities
  • Investor Owned (IOU)
  • 5, generate gt 2/3 of power
  • Federally Owned
  • TVA, BPA, US Army Corps, sell power non-profit
  • Other Publicly Owned
  • Munis, state, 2/3 of this type, lt9
  • Coops originally set up by REA

8
US Industry structure nonutilities
  • Nonutility Generators (NUGs)
  • Prior to 1940 20 of power
  • By mid-1970s a small fraction
  • Late 1980s-1990s as regulators changed rules
  • Some utilities had to sell off their assets
  • Growth of NUGS in some states was significant
  • By 2001 NUGs were delivering over 25

9
LM 1
  • Of the following sources of electric power
    generated in the US, which one group provides
    more than half?
  • A) Munis
  • B) State Owned
  • C) IOUs
  • D) Federally Owned
  • E) Cooperatives

10
Regulatory impacts (PUHCA, PURPA, EPAct, FERC
Orders 888 2000)
  • Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935
  • 1929 16 holding companies controlled 80 of US
    utilities
  • Financial abuses in many large companies
  • Stock Market Crash left many in bankruptcy
  • PUHCA provided regulation and break-up of large
    HCs
  • Public Utility Regulatory Policies Act of 1978
  • 1973 oil crisis led to large rise in utility
    retail rates
  • PURPA set up to encourage energy efficiency and
    renewable energy technologies

11
Regulatory impacts (PUHCA, PURPA, EPAct, FERC
Orders 888 2000)
  • Energy Policy Act of 1992
  • Created new entity EWG
  • EPAct set up to begin opening up the grid to
    allow competitive generators to compete for
    customers hopefully to drive down costs and
    prices
  • FERC Orders 888 2000
  • 888 (1996) Requires IOUs to publish
    nondiscriminatory tariffs that can be applied to
    all generators/competitors
  • 2000 (1999) Calls for the creation of regional
    transmission organizations RTOS to control
    transmission system operation

12
Industry today (NUGS, IPPs, QFs)
  • NUG non-utility generator
  • IPP non-PURPA-regulated NUGs
  • QF meet PURPA requirements for efficiency or
    renewable energy use (lt80 MWs in size at least
    75 wind, solar, geothermal, hydro or MSW) max
    50 utility owned

13
California Meltdown
  • Open market on wholesale in March 98
  • First 2 years good prices (35/MWh)
  • 40 of Californias generation sold
  • August 2000 - 170/MWh (800/MWh)
  • In 2000 customers paid 5x 1999 prices
  • Due to low imports of hydro and adjacent power
  • Market manipulation by Enron and 30 others

14
Californias end of open markets
  • Wholesale market stays high into 2001
  • January 01 rolling blackouts (1500/MWh)
  • By Feb customers had paid more than 99
  • By May PGE declares bankruptcy
  • CalPX market shutdown
  • FERC intervenes with price caps (Sum 01)

15
August 2003 Blackout
  • MISO in charge of Ohio transmission system was a
    key player in failure to control isolated
    reactive power problem and loss of major
    transmission service in Northern Ohio.
  • gt50 million people were out of service for
    extended period while the grid was restarted
  • Largest widespread blackout in US history
  • Nationally there is a major rethink of
    deregulation

16
LM 2
  • Connect each event with its year
  • A) Largest US Blackout 1978
  • B) PURPA 2001
  • C) California Meltdown 2003
  • D) FERC Order 888 1992
  • E) Public Utility Holding Co Act 1999
  • F) FERC Order 2000 1996
  • G) Energy Policy Act 1935

17
Distributed Generation
  • Economies of Scale Begin a Reversal

18
Typical Power Generator Output
  • Large Hydropower Installation 10 GW
  • Nuclear 1,100 MW
  • Coal 600 MW
  • CC Gas Turbine 250 MW
  • Simple Cycle CT 60 - 150 MW
  • Molten Carbonate Fuel Cell - 4,000 kW
  • Wind Turbines 10 1500 kW
  • Fuel Cell (automotive) 60 kW
  • Microturbine 30 kW
  • Residential PEM Fuel Cell 5 kW
  • Residential PV System 3-5 kW

19
Typical End Use Consumption
  • Laptop Personal Computer 20 Watts
  • Desktop Personal Computer 100 Watts
  • Residential Household (ave.) 1-2 kW
  • Commercial Customer (ave.) 10 kW
  • Supermarket 100 kW
  • Office Building 500 1,000 kW
  • Large Factory 1 MW
  • Peak Use of Largest Buildings 100 MW

20
What is Distributed Generation?
  • Small-scale power generation
  • Typically less than 50 MW
  • Located in the distribution system of a utility
  • Often customer (not utility) owned
  • May include use of waste heat

21
Cogeneration and CHP
  • Capturing and using waste heat while generating
    electricity
  • CHP combined heat and power

22
HHV and LHV
  • Often during combustion of a fuel, latent heat is
    generated. If we include the latent heat in our
    calculations (i.e., if our furnace or system is
    able to capture that heat and make it useful) we
    want to use the higher heating value of our fuel.
  • HHV high(er) heating value, gross heat of
    combustion
  • LHV low(er) heating value, net heat of combustion

23
HHV and LHV tables
  • GAS HHV LHV (in Btu/lb) RATIO
  • Methane 23,875 21,495 90
  • Propane 21,669 19,937 92
  • Natural Gas 22,500 20,273 90
  • Gasoline 19,637 18,434 94
  • No. 4 oil 18,890 17,804 94

24
Power plant efficiency
  • ? output power / input fuel energy
  • Large Centralized power stations
  • ? is typically based upon HHV of fuel
  • Distributed Generation power stations
  • ? is often based upon LHV of fuel
  • To convert

25
LHV / HHV example
  • A small micro-power plant has a fuel input of
    12,500 Btu (LHV) per kWh of electricity it
    generates. Find its LHV and HHV efficiencies if
    we assume it runs on gasoline
  • Gasoline LHV/HHV 0.9378
  • Efficiency 3412 Btu/kWh / Heat Rate
  • ? LHV 3412 / 12,500 27.3
  • ? HHV ? LHV x LHV/HHV 27.3 x 0.9378
    25.6

26
LM 3 - You try it
  • A micro-power plant has a fuel input of 14,500
    Btu (HHV) per kWh of electricity it generates.
    Find its LHV and HHV efficiencies if we assume it
    runs on methane
  • Methane LHV/HHV 0.9003
  • Efficiency 3412 Btu/kWh / Heat Rate

27
Microturbines
  • Very small gas turbines (NG or waste gas)
  • Typically 500 W to 300 kW
  • Typical Microturbine Components
  • Compressor
  • Turbine
  • P-M generator
  • Combustion chamber
  • Heat exchanger (recuperator)

Often all on one shaft
28

  • ? LHV 29, Heat Rate 11,770 Btu/kWh
  • 172 kW thermal potential for hot water ? TTE gt

29
Elliot Microturbine Application
  • The Elliot TA 100A produces its full output of
    105 kW when burning 1.24 x 106 Btu/hr of natural
    gas. Its waste heat is used to supplement an
    existing boiler by raising its temperature from
    120 -140 oF. It operates for 8000 hours/year.
  • A) If 47 of the fuel is transferred to boiler
    what should flow rate be?
  • B) If boiler is 75 efficient and NG is 6 per
    MMBtu how much money will microturbine save in
    displaced fuel?
  • C) If electric costs 8 / kWh what is annual
    savings?
  • D) If OM is 1,500 per year what are net
    savings?
  • E) If microturbine costs 220,000 what is Initial
    RR and SPB?

30
LM 4
  • A) If we can not use the waste heat is it
    economical to install a microturbine in this
    application?
  • (assume you require lt 10 yr Simple Payback)
  • B) What if your electric costs are 11 / kWh?
  • C) What is lowest price electricity can be to
    still meet your 10 yr simple payback requirement?

31
