The project researched technical approaches for the BPA to meet the NERC frequency response standards and reliability challenges. It built on the success of hydro-governor design and tuning work done under the existing TIP 50 research to develop plant control and Automatic Generation Control (AGC) strategies to meet diverse reliability objectives. By investigating relationships between frequency controls, angular stability, and voltage stability issues this project determined the benefits and feasibility of various technical strategies to address stability issues.
