Heywood & MPRP Sensitivity Analysis
• Issue
– Heywood Road (formerly Benton) Project (PPA CMP-06-T13) includes an increase of the sag-limited rating of Section 83 between Wyman Hydro & Section 83C tap
– Detailed design [using Light Distance And Ranging (LiDAR) data] has indicated that re-rating is expensive, nearly $10 million
– A new 115 kV line parallel to Section 83 between Wyman Hydro and the Section 241 (Rice Rips) tap would be $19.6 million – there is room on the existing Right-of-Way (ROW) for a new line
– Heywood Road Substation will enter service this winter
2
• Preliminary Analysis pre-MPRP Conclusions, June 2008
– A new 115 kV line parallel to Section 83 would reduce line losses by 4 to 6 MW under peak load conditions
– Northern Hydro export capability will be increased with a new 115 kV line parallel to Section 83
– MPRP system upgrades should be re-assessed in the Waterville/ Winslow/Skowhegan area with a new 115 kV line parallel to Section 83
Heywood & MPRP Sensitivity Analysis

• Study Objectives for MPRP Sensitivity Analysis
– Re-assess the MPRP system upgrades in the Waterville/ Winslow / Skowhegan area based upon
• New 115 kV line parallel to Section 83 between Wyman Hydro and Section 241 (with a new tap to Rice Rips)
• Conversion of Maxcys (Coopers Mills) 115 kV straight bus to a breaker-and-a-half configuration
Heywood & MPRP Sensitivity Analysis

• Original MPRP system upgrades in the Waterville / Winslow / Skowhegan area:– New 115 kV line from Albion to Winslow (Section 245)– 115 kV Line Rebuilds to create space in ROW for new
construction• Section 84 (Albion to Winslow)• Section 67A (Albion to Heywood Rd, new Section 259)
– Re-rate of 115 kV from Heywood to Rice Rips (Section 241)– New 345/115 kV Albion Road Substation
• Breaker-and-a-half 115 kV configuration terminating Sections 67, 67A, 84, new Section 245 to Winslow, and 345/115 kV transformer
– 115 kV capacitor bank installations• 50 MVAR at Heywood Road (increase from 20 MVAR today)• 50 MVAR at Winslow

• Study Assumptions– Base cases originated from MPRP Needs Assessment
– New 115 kV line from Wyman Hydro to Section 241 (with a tap to Rice Rips)
• 39 miles of 1113 KCM ACSR conductor
• Interconnect with Section 241 with new tap 2.6 miles from Heywood Road
– Section 83 will not be re-rated
– Relocate Section 83B (Lakewood) Tap to new line

• Analysis used MPRP Northern Alternative N5 with modified Waterville/Winslow/Skowhegan facilities:– Maxcys (Coopers Mills) 115 kV with breaker-and-a-half
configuration
– All other N5 upgrades in service except for:• Winslow and Heywood capacitor additions
• Rebuild of Section 259 (Albion to Heywood), formerly part of Section 67A
• Rebuild of Section 84 (Albion to Winslow)
• New Albion to Winslow 115 kV Line

• N-1 and N-1-1 Assessment of Thermal Performance
– N-1: Section 84 (Albion to Winslow) overloaded for loss of Section 259 (Albion to Heywood)
– N-1-1: No additional thermal concerns
– Section 84 (Albion to Winslow) requires rebuild
• N-1 and N-1-1 Assessment of Voltage Performance
– N-1-1 Low Voltage Concerns with Albion T1 or Maxcys T3 Outages with other contingencies
– 25 MVAR of capacitors at Winslow 115 kV meets N-1-1 voltage criteria (previously two MVAR capacitor banks)
Heywood & MPRP Sensitivity Analysis

• Conclusions
– Re-assessment of MPRP reinforcements in the Heywood area showed that addition of the new parallel line, with relocation of Section 83B (Lakewood) Tap to Section 241 and a Maxcys 115 kV breaker-and-a-half yard, reduced the system upgrades required to meet N-1-1 criteria in the Heywood area
– The following system upgrades will no longer be required for MPRP
• 30 MVAR additional capacitors at Heywood
• 25 MVAR of capacitors at Winslow
• New 115 kV Section 245 (Albion to Winslow)
• Rebuild of 115 kV Section 259 (Albion to Heywood)

• Conclusions, cont.
– The following system upgrades are still required for MPRP in the Waterville/Winslow/Skowhegan area
• Rebuild of 115 kV Section 84 (Winslow to Albion)
• Re-rate of 115 kV Section 241 (Heywood to Rice Rips)
• New 345/115 kV Albion Road Substation
– Breaker-and-a-half 115 kV configuration for termination of Sections 67, 67A, 84, and 345/115 kV transformer
• 115 kV capacitor bank installation
– 25 MVAR at Winslow (previously two 25 MVAR capacitor banks)

• Combined Results of Heywood Road and MPRP analyses
– Estimated cost savings of not building these MPRP facilities = $12.8 million
– Net cost savings of building a new parallel 115 kV line from Wyman Hydro to Section 241 = $3.6 million
– New 115 kV line will reduce losses
– New 115 kV line will increase Wyman Hydro area export capability
Heywood & MPRP Sensitivity Analysis
15
• Next Steps
– Conduct PPA sensitivity analysis of Heywood Road with a new 115 kV line parallel to Section 83, rather than re-rating Section 83
– Conduct PPA sensitivity analysis of this new 115 kV line along with changes for MPRP
– Submit PPAs for changes
– Submit Transmission Cost Allocation (TCA) application for the Heywood Road Project with the cost credit of facilities avoided with MPRP and this new 115 kV line
– Submit Maine PUC Certificate of Public Convenience and Necessity for this new 115 kV line
