Automatic Generation Control. “AGC”). The automatic regulation of the power output of electric Generators within a prescribed range in response to a change in system frequency, or tie-line loading, to maintain system frequency or scheduled interchange with other areas within predetermined limits.
Automatic Generation Control or AGC is a measure of the ability of a generating unit or portion thereof to respond automatically within a specified time to a remote direction from the System Operator to increase or decrease the level of output in order to control frequency and to maintain currently proper power flows into and out of the NEPOOL Control Area.
Automatic Generation Control. Automatic Generation Control (AGC) will be provided for each combustion turbine-generator and for the steam turbine-generator. AGC allows for limited control of the power plant from a remote dispatch facility or a system operating center. The AGC system will provide input/output (I/O) data or command exchange for the following types and quantities of signals.
Automatic Generation Control. Automatic generation control shall be demonstrated for the entire facility and individual gas turbines from 50% base load to maximum output. Two separate tests (each in Phase I and again in Phase II) will be performed; the first, with the gas turbine being tested, and second with all of the installed gas turbines for that Phase in service. In each test the automatic generation control equipment will be used to balance load on the gas turbine(s) ramping the unit(s) from 50% to base load. Plant response characteristics shall meet and can be used to satisfy the AGC requirements referred to in item 2.2.2.5 above.
Automatic Generation Control. PREPA and EE agree to work together on how EE's facility will be operated on Automatic Generation Control in the dispatch range of 90% to 100% of Dependable Capacity. EE will complete the testing program by the end of April 2006, subject to PREPA's approval of the testing schedule.
Automatic Generation Control. (AGC). As defined in the NERC Glossary of Terms.
Automatic Generation Control. 26 Section 6.2 Dispatch; Scheduling for Delivery.........................27 Section 6.3 [NOT USED]................................................28 Section 6.4
Automatic Generation Control. Each Dedicated Unit shall be fully Dispatchable by and capable of automatic generation control within the Design Limits and shall operate on such control if so directed by Purchaser or the Control Center on behalf of Purchaser. Purchaser, or the Control Center on behalf of Purchaser, shall have the sole discretion to Dispatch the Net Electrical Output from each Dedicated Unit up to the Actual Contract Capacity of such Dedicated Unit; PROVIDED that Dispatch shall be consistent with the Design Limits and (to the extent not inconsistent with the Design Limits) Prudent Industry Practices and manufacturers' guidelines and recommendations generally applicable to such equipment; XXXXXXXX, XXXXXXX, that to the extent that any Dedicated Unit, as constructed, can utilize a higher ramp rate than the ramp rate included in the Design Limits, Seller shall allow such Dedicated Unit to operate with such higher ramp rate.
Automatic Generation Control. (a) At least six (6) months prior to the Scheduled Date of Commercial Operation for the Initial Units, PECO will designate two applicable control areas from which AGC signals will be received.
