03.08.2006 Siemens Power Transmission and Distribution (PTD) is to supply state-of-the-art power
system control to equip Russia’s extra-high voltage power system. In this way the System
Operator-Central Dispatching Office for Unified Energy System of Russia (SO-CDU UES) is responding
to the requirements of the deregulated Russian energy market. The new Siemens system will replace
the existing systems and will add new functions. The use of the new system guarantees higher
operating reliability of all equipment, a reduction of overall network losses and improved
utilization of power plant capacity. The order has a value of about 80 million euros;
commissioning is planned for the middle to end of 2008.
Siemens Power Transmission and Distribution (PTD) is to supply state-of-the-art
power system control to equip Russia’s extra-high voltage power system Russia is not
only the world’s largest country in terms of surface area. It also has one of the
largest and most complex power networks in the world with correspondingly high
requirements as regards data volume and the efficiency of the power system control.
The complete system for the Russian 220-kV and 500-kV extra-high voltage system to
be delivered by Siemens consists of the central power system control center in Moscow
and seven supraregional control centers distributed across the whole of Russia.
The power system control which is based on the latest Advanced-PowerCC architecture
provides the necessary functions for real-time monitoring of the entire extra-high
voltage network. Furthermore, the system provides all interfaces and programs for
data exchange with the operator of the power trading system and all other market
players such as distribution companies, producers and qualified users.
The system operates with open standards. In this new project for Russia all
data relating to the extra-high voltage network will also be gathered centrally
in the internationally standardized CIM format for the first time. These standards
create the basis for expansions such as are to be expected in an increasingly
deregulated energy market. Siemens is making allowance for the specific requirements
of the Russian market model for the deregulated energy market with energy management
functions (EMS) and energy market management functions (EMM) matched specifically to
the stipulations of the Russian market regulations.
