Common use of Ramp Rates Clause in Contracts

Ramp Rates. (i) Seller shall ensure that the ramp rate of the Facility is less than the following limits for all conditions including start up, normal operations, Seller adjusting the Facility Actual Output, changes in the solar resource, and shut down (including high wind speed shut down in the case of wind facilities) for the following periods as calculated in accordance with Attachment C (Methods and Formulas For Measuring Performance Standards). Maximum Ramp Rate Upward of [__] MW/minute for all periods. [TO BE DETERMINED FOLLOWING IRS.] Maximum Ramp Rate Downward of 2 MW/minute for all periods other than periods for which such maximum is not operationally possible because of rapid loss of solar resource. (ii) Upon receiving a command from the Company active power limit control(s) described in Section 1(g)(viii) of this Attachment B (Facility Owned by Seller), Seller shall adjust the Facility's net real power export at a ramp rate, as calculated in accordance with Attachment C (Methods and Formulas for Measuring Performance Standards), to be specified by the Company to the extent allowed by the solar resource without exceeding such ramp rate and without intentional delay. Such ramp rate shall be in the range of __ MW/min to __ MW/min. (iii) The Facility is allowed to exceed the maximum ramp rate limits in Section 3(c)(Ramp Rates) of this Attachment B (Facility Owned by Seller) when Facility output is changed by the frequency response control described in Section 3(m) (Frequency Response) of this Attachment B (Facility Owned by Seller).

Ramp Rates. (i) Seller shall ensure that the ramp rate of the Facility is less than the following limits for all conditions including start up, normal operations, Seller adjusting the Facility Actual OutputFacility's net real power export, changes in the solar wind resource, and shut down (including high wind speed shut down in the case of wind facilities) for the following periods as calculated in accordance with Attachment C (Methods and Formulas For Measuring Performance Standards). Island of Maui [NOTE: THESE VALUES MAY BE CHANGED BY COMPANY UPON COMPLETION OF THE IRS.] Maximum Ramp Rate Upward of [__] 2 MW/minute for all periods. [TO BE DETERMINED FOLLOWING IRS.] Maximum Ramp Rate Downward of 2 MW/minute for all periods other than periods periods. Islands of Moloka‘i and Xxxx’i [NOTE: THESE VALUES MAY CHANGED BY COMPANY UPON COMPLETION OF THE IRS.] Maximum Ramp Rate Upward of 0.1 MW/minute for which such maximum is not operationally possible because all periods. Maximum Ramp Rate Downward of rapid loss of solar resource0.1 MW/minute for all periods. (ii) Upon receiving a command from the Company active power limit control(s) described in Section 1(g)(viii) of this Attachment B (Facility Owned by Seller), Seller shall adjust the Facility's net real power export at a ramp rate, as calculated in accordance with Attachment C (Methods and Formulas for Measuring Performance Standards), to be specified by the Company to the extent allowed by the solar wind resource without exceeding such ramp rate and without intentional delay. Such ramp rate shall be in the range of __ MW/min to __ MW/min. (iii) The Facility is allowed to exceed the maximum ramp rate limits in Section 3(c)(Ramp Rates) of this Attachment B (Facility Owned by Seller) when Facility output is changed by the frequency response control described in Section 3(m) (Frequency Response) of this Attachment B (Facility Owned by Seller).

Ramp Rates. (i) Seller shall ensure that the ramp rate of the Facility is less than the following limits for all conditions including start up, normal operations, Seller adjusting the Facility Actual Output, changes in the solar [solar/wind] resource, and shut down (including high wind speed shut down in the case of wind facilities) for the following periods as calculated in accordance with Attachment C (Methods and Formulas For Measuring Performance Standards). Maximum Ramp Rate Upward of [__] MW/minute for all periods. [TO BE DETERMINED FOLLOWING IRS.] Maximum Ramp Rate Downward of 2 MW/minute for all periods other than periods for which such maximum is not operationally possible because of rapid loss of solar [solar/wind] resource. [THE 2MW/MINUTE RATE IS FOR O‘AHU. OTHER ISLANDS WILL VARY.] (ii) Upon receiving a command from the Company active power limit control(s) described in Section 1(g)(viii) of this Attachment B (Facility Owned by Seller), Seller shall adjust the Facility's net real power export Facility Actual Output at a ramp rate, as calculated in accordance with Attachment C (Methods and Formulas for Measuring Performance Standards), to be specified by the Company to the extent allowed by the solar [solar/wind] resource without exceeding such ramp rate and without intentional delay. Such ramp rate shall be in the range of __ MW/min to __ MW/min. (iii) The Facility is allowed to exceed the maximum ramp rate limits in Section 3(c)(Ramp Rates) of this Attachment B (Facility Owned by Seller) when Facility output is changed by the frequency response control described in Section 3(m) (Frequency Response) of this Attachment B (Facility Owned by Seller).

Ramp Rates. (i) Seller shall ensure that the ramp rate of the Facility is less than the following limits for all conditions other than those under control of the Company System Operator or those due to desired frequency response, including start up, normal operations, Seller adjusting the Facility Actual Output, changes in the solar wind resource, and shut down (including high wind speed shut down in the case of wind facilities) for the following periods as calculated in accordance with Attachment C (Methods and Formulas For Measuring Performance Standards). Maximum Ramp Rate Upward of [__] 2 MW/minute for all periodsperiods of uncoordinated changes in output in response to changes in resource. [TO BE DETERMINED FOLLOWING IRS.] Maximum Ramp Rate Downward of 2 MW/minute for all periods of uncoordinated changes in output in response to changes in resource. Maximum ramp rate for shutdown/startup other than periods for which requested by System Operator (such maximum is not operationally possible because as high wind speed shutdown, startup due to resource availability) 2 MW/minute. Plant operator should notify System Operator of rapid loss of solar resourceequipment startup/shutdown by method agreed by Company. (ii) Upon receiving a command from the Company active power limit control(s) described in Section 1(g)(viii) of this Attachment B (Facility Owned by Seller), Seller shall adjust the Facility's net real power export at a ramp rate, as calculated in accordance with Attachment C (Methods and Formulas for Measuring Performance Standards), to be specified by the Company to the extent allowed by the solar wind resource without exceeding such ramp rate and without intentional delay. Such ramp rate shall be in the range of __ MW/min to __ MW/min. (iii) The Facility is allowed to exceed the maximum ramp rate limits in Section 3(c)(Ramp Rates) of this Attachment B (Facility Owned by Seller) when Facility output is changed by the frequency response control described in Section 3(m) (Frequency Response) of this Attachment B (Facility Owned by Seller).
