Design phase objectives include: • Project narrative describing the operating requirements of the wind diesel system components • Supporting engineering drawings and component specifications • Site map and permitting documents System Overview The Puvurnaq Power Company serves the community of Kongiganak, a traditional Yup'ik Eskimo village of 445 permanent residents. Kongiganak is located on the western shore of Kuskokwim Bay, 70 miles southwest of Bethel, and 450 miles northwest of Anchorage. The community includes a school, washeteria, community center, clinic, store, lighted 2000-foot runway, a bulk fuel storage facility, a small local store and 135 residences. The economy is based primarily on a fishing and subsistence lifestyle. Local employment includes work at the school, limited commercial fishing and seasonal construction. The population and electrical load are increasing each year. Recent oil price volatility has resulted in a tripling of fuel prices. The community is entirely dependent on diesel fuel for heating and power generation, and recognizes the importance of reducing dependency on diesel fuel for the economic stability of the community. In the lower Kuskokwim region, there is an abundant wind resource. Wind diesel systems hold promise for lowering power costs and reducing diesel fuel usage for this and many communities in rural Alaska. The Puvurnaq Wind Heat Smart Grid System is a high penetration wind diesel system in which excess wind turbine capacity has been installed. The intention is to generate electricity in excess of the power generation needs and use this energy to displace heating fuel. A graphic depicting the general conceptual design is presented below. It provides an overall perspective of the components of the wind diesel power system and how they relate to the individual residential customer, now and in the future. 1 Figure 1: System Architecture Village Power Plant SupeMeary c«drdler � Wind Turbine $mdn Gawwxy filer U! n M�lam!1 i d— N U.

A fast acting controllable 300 kW electric boiler with a power electronics interface connected into the power system heating loop. 4. 200 kWe of supplemental controllable electric thermal storage in a community building. 5. 200 kWe of distributed electric thermal storage (twenty one 9.6 kW individual thermal storage devices located in residential homes). 6. A smart metering system to account for the changes in system operation. The wind system architecture for this project has been based on the use of proven industrial components, e.g. newer diesel engines, electric boiler, off the shelf power electronics, proven wind diesel controls, electric thermal storage devices, robust wind turbines, and advanced automated metering systems. These components have been demonstrated to be reliable and when combined, make maximum use of the existing power generation and distribution equipment. In support of this objective, several years of historical weather data for Kongiganak and Bethel area were collected and analyzed. Consulting N meteorologists were asked to examine aerial photographs and maps and suggest potential wind sites, and estimate wind turbine output. One year of monitoring data was collected and several models were run to estimate the potential fuel savings. Wind for Heat One of the first tasks in designing a wind diesel system for a remote community, like Kongiganak, was to analyze the amount of fuel available for displacement, and correlate that information with the potential for wind generation. While the primary purpose of the wind diesel system was to displace diesel fuel used for power generation, survey information indicated that over twice as much diesel fuel was used for heating than power generation. It is estimated that the average homeowner consumes 766 gallons of heating fuel at a cost of over $6.24 per gallon. In some circumstances this makes up more than 25% of a household budget. It was estimated that excess wind energy could be sold for $.10 to $.15/kWhr. This would represent a significant cost savings to the average consumer, while increasing revenues to the local utility. There are multiple locations for wind energy to displace heating fuel throughout the village of Kongiganak and throughout rural Alaska.

The system configuration is described in Figure 3.

These units will be interfaced to the power electronics driven electric boiler. The control system, diesel gen-sets, and special boiler work together, switching excess wind energy into and out of an electric boiler at such a rate that the voltage and frequency on the grid become stable despite variable turbine output due to wind gusts. The power electronics interface provides voltage support by maintaining the balance between real and reactive power. The electric boiler is connected into the heat recovery system in the power plant and provides makeup heat for that which is lost as diesel output is diminished. Excess heat from the boiler is distributed through insulated piping to the community washeteria. The low load diesel/power electronics boiler operation is similar to that of a flywheel, except that excess wind energy is being stored as heat into a boiler instead of the rotating mass of the flywheel. Rather than extracting electrical energy from a flywheel connected to a generator, energy is extracted by withdrawing it from the heating system. The primary drawbacks of the diesel boiler system versus the flywheel system are that the diesel boiler system is not 0 as flexible in terms of wind operational modes, the overall system requires a significantly greater spinning reserve on the diesel system, and the greater cost savings available from the option of diesel off operations does not exist. Community Heating Since there is a good match between the available wind power and the heating needs of the community, the project was expanded from three 15S Windmatic turbines (65 kW) to five 17S Windmatic (75 kW) machines. The project took advantage of heavy equipment, which was mobilized for turbine installation to add wind capacity. This excess capacity can generate electrical energy over and above that required to meet the electrical load requirements of the community. At modest to high wind speeds, the excess will be captured and stored in electric thermal storage (ETS) units. The ETS units capture electrical energy by heating ceramic bricks, which can be accessed later for room heat, thus displacing heating fuel. At lower wind speeds the excess capacity expands the fuel displacement envelope at the power plant. Electric thermal storage represented a low cost, low maintenance method of energy storage. Fuel and Cost Savings: Available wind and electric load data were analyzed using the HOMER modeling software to estimate fuel savings, power produced and excess kWhrs available for heating. A base year of 2015 was used in which the load is expected to be 1,500,000 kWhrs. HOMER does not take into account system stability issues and The HOMER model is an energy flow model that estimates energy production for each hour of the year, and sums these to provide a general estimate of power production for each turbine.

The Windmatic is of classic Danish design, and has been proven to be a reliable workhorse wherever it has been installed. The Windmatic 17s (17 meter rotor diameter) wind turbine is a three bladed, stall regulated upwind wind turbine with a nominal rating of 75 kW. These turbines use induction generators, which require E excitation from the power line to generate power and consequently operate at the line voltage and frequency. Each turbine is equipped with two generators, a 20 kW for low wind speeds and a 95 kW generator for high wind speeds. At zero power the large generator's reactive power demand is approximately 22 kVAR, which increases to as much as 45 kVAR at full power. The reactive power demanded by each wind turbine is reduced by power factor correction capacitors that are wired into the generator controllers. The Windmatic operates between 4 m/s and 25 m/s, achieving rated power at 15 m/s. Above rated wind speed, and during periods of cold dense air the wind turbine's power could easily exceed the rated power for short periods without causing the wind turbine to cut out. The Windmatic turbine can operate from 0 to 125% of full rated load (95kW). The gust power of the turbine is estimated to be 120 kW and has been observed in other locations. The maximum gust power of 5 machines defined the total capacity required for all thermal storage banks. The Windmatic wind turbines are of a simple, rugged, fixed pitch design. The turbines use induction generators, which rely on external excitation from the power grid to generate electricity and for frequency and voltage control. When generating power, each wind generator draws reactive power (VARs) from the power grid. At zero power, the generators' reactive power is approximately 20 kVAR and increases to 40 kVAR at full power. The reactive power needed by the wind turbines is reduced by power factor capacitors that are wired into individual wind turbine controllers. Turbine auxiliary equipment includes: heated anemometers, low temperature lubricants, and Stay Clean blade coatings to prevent ice build up. Grid stability: The output of these turbines changes quickly as wind speed varies. The instantaneous total VAR demand can fluctuate quickly and sometimes exceed the capacity of the power system. Therefore a 300-kVAR static VAR compensation device (SVC) is installed at the point of contact of the wind farm to the power line to provide some or all of the reactive power demanded by the load and the wind turbines. The SVC is a four -quadrant, bi-directional inverter. The device provides simple low maintenance, long life operation with high efficiency particularly at low loads. The SVC is proven technology previously available only in highly complex and expensive transmission systems. It is anticipated that a flywheel system will be added in the future. The flywheel system will be able to symmetrically absorb and inject large amounts of real or reactive power. The flywheel will increase the penetration and generation of wind energy across all wind speed conditions and do so with fewer system losses and lower spinning reserve margins. The five -turbine configuration is estimated to produce over 480,000 kWhrs of 0 excess electricity, which is equivalent to 14,700 gallons of heating fuel (13690 Btu/gal in an 80% efficient appliance). Electric thermal storage (ETS) stoves will be used to capture and store this energy. In the Kongiganak wind diesel system there are three types of thermal energy storage capacity: The power plant heating loop Community facilities, which include the community center, and head start classrooms Residential heating While the actual savings resulting from the use of excess wind energy will depend on several variables, such as the availability of the wind, customer decisions and price. Electricity sold for $.09/kWhr, would be equivalent to $3.00 per gallon heating fuel. Since current heating fuel prices exceed $6.00 per gallon, this excess wind energy represents a potential fuel savings of 50%. Annual average residential fuel usage is 760 gallons per household. The target for this project would be to displace 200 gallons of heating fuel in each of the 21 homes fitted with an ETS unit. These homes will be monitored and metered separately for fuel usage, and the price of excess wind energy adjusted to encourage usage. The additional revenue from the sale of excess electricity will increase revenues to the local utility, further stabilizing the local economy.

High penetration wind diesel systems require sophisticated control systems to dispatch the generation resources reliably and to maintain system voltage and frequency during periods of wind operation. The control system is designed to optimize and balance the heating and electrical loads against the available wind power and the diesel generator output. In general, the diesel power plant supervisory controller is integrated with the wind turbine and demand managed device control to create a Hybrid System Supervisory Controller (HSSC). The HSSC automates the combined operation of the wind diesel system package and features high -resolution data recording, full remote control operation and redundant levels of control to assure reliable power system operation. The Smart Grid Controller manages the use and metering of the excess wind energy through the individual meters in the homes. The primary subcomponent controllers are the diesel generator or gen-set controllers, the wind turbine controllers, and demand managed or thermal device controllers. The control system is broken down into several levels of operation: ■ Hybrid System Supervisory Controller (HSSC): The HSSC schedules each of the lower units (diesel gen-sets, wind turbines, other devices), and performs remote control, visualization, trending and data logging functions. ■ Diesel Generator (Gen -set) Controller (DGC): Each engine generator is monitored and controlled by an individual controller, which provides generator protection, load sharing and data collection. ■ Managed Device Controller (MDC): The demand controller is routine in the HSSC that monitors the amount of excess energy, whether excess wind or diesel capacity, and schedules load control devices, which in this instance is the thermal electric furnace in the community building. ■ Feeder Monitor (FM): The feeder monitor monitors feeder operating parameters. ■ Wind Turbine Controller (WTC): Each wind turbine has an autonomous controller that performs dispatch and control functions. ■ Smart Grid Controller (SGC): The SGC is an automated controller that collects, communicates and stores operational information of the overall village power system, and based on that information controls customer devices through the automated meters. The SGC updates energy pricing and communicates with the individual meters to operate demand managed and dynamic pricing programs. ■ Electric Thermal Storage Device Controller (ETSDC): Each electric thermal storage device has an individual controller which monitors outdoor temperature, state of charge and responds to automatic pricing signals and manual control. The control system is a structured hierarchy providing a high degree of resilient power control with minimal loss of control in the event that an individual component or controller fails. Each diesel generator has its own controller, which is independent of the HSSC. The failure of one generator controller does not affect the operation of any other generator controller, or the operation of the station controller. The protection functions and the load sharing functions of the remaining generator controller will function as normal and the HSSC will simply modify its scheduling table to take into account the missing generator. If the HSSC controller fails, except for remote functions and automated scheduling, all generators are available for manual operation, with load sharing and automatic synchronization. This control architecture ensures that the diesel plant stays on line. The Hybrid System Supervisory Controller (HSSC): The HSSC is an industrial automation controller running on a secure platform with custom designed software. The software is modular, allowing insertion of certain control tasks, such as addition of wind or photovoltaic battery storage or other operational routines that extend the capabilities beyond basic diesel generation. The operation of the software is controlled by a large number of parameters, allowing simple configuration of the wind diesel system operations. The HSSC is responsible for automated scheduling and black start of diesel generators. Failed generator sets are locked out of operation and not re -scheduled for operation until the operator resets the various alarms. Diesel Generator (Gen -set) Controllers (DGC): The control of diesel generator sets will be through the use of digital generator set controllers provide by Woodward. These generator controllers offer a number of advantages over conventional systems, most notably a reduction in the number of components and reduced cost. Each Gen -set controller perform synchronizing and load sharing functions as well as provide all protective functions (over/under voltage, over/under frequency, phase imbalance, etc.), while continuously monitoring the operation of the generator and the engine. The Gen -set controller's ability to communicate via Ethernet and/or CANbus with other segments of the control system provides a rapid update on the status of the system and a pathway for rapid diagnostics. The Puvurnaq Power System has Woodward Model GCP 31 Gen -set Controllers. Low Load Diesel Operation: The HSSC has a special mode of operation for utilization of the low load capabilities of the diesel generator sets for operation with a power electronics driven boiler. When a generator set is operating in low load mode, the HSSC re- establishes a new spinning reserve and low load operational set point every 2 seconds. The new set point prevents over -fueling due to power fluctuations and I keeps spinning reserve to a minimum. Low load diesel operations will require careful maintenance of all systems including: turbo chargers, fuel systems, exhaust, cooling, engine heating systems as well as oil reservoir size, gaskets, bearings, connecting rods, starters and station batteries. These systems must be regularly maintained and fully operational for effective performance. Managed Device Controller: (MDC) The HSSC control programming is capable of communicating with and incorporating a limited number of auxiliary devices into wind diesel operating modes. The HSSC controller schedules and dispatches large loads in order to increase wind penetration, as well as increasing grid stability. The HSSC sends information about the type and level of spinning reserve in the system. The HSSC can identify the amounts of each type of spinning reserve (diesel or wind) and uses a predictive algorithm for short-term (2 to 15 minute) forecasts to schedule the device operation. In doing so, the HSSC is taking into account a number of parameters including the temperature set point of the power plant heating loop, and the desired set point of the 200 kW of electric thermal storage at the community center. The MDC routines in the HSCC can also control any other large devices, which could significantly affect consumer demand. The set point of the ETS units is set by the MDC so that they only receive energy when excess wind is available. If sufficient capacity is available the load controller asserts a ready signal, and the community center ETS unit is immediately started. Wind Turbine Controller (WTC): Control operations and protection for each wind turbine is carried out through a wind turbine controller located at the base of each tower. The WTC is a stand- alone controller that is designed to monitor and control the Windmatic 17S subsystems and to safely start and stop the wind turbine. During start up, the wind turbine is not connected to the grid. However the rotor is allowed to free wheel. As the anemometers detect an increase in wind speed the turbine yaw drive is activated and orients the turbine into the wind. When the generator reaches approximately 1155 rpm, the power factor correction capacitors are connected. As the generator speed continues to climb at approximately 1198 rpm, the generator is connected to the grid. This sequence means that the synchronous generator is not required to motor the generator up to its operational speed, and is assisted in exciting the generator through power factor correction capacitors, which are connected before the wind turbine generator is connected. To be effective in a wind diesel system, each wind turbine must be controlled in a coordinated manner with the wind diesel supervisory controller to optimize system operation. To do this, each wind turbine controller must communicate 10 with the wind diesel system controller so that it can be regulated and its operating status can be known. The Windmatic controller has an imbedded web server and event recorder for remote diagnosis and reset of alarm events. Communication to the wind turbine from the wind diesel plant supervisory controller can be through fiber optic or wireless link. The controller is set up to carry out shutdown on any of the following events: • Rotor overspeed/underspeed • Excessive vibration • Winding over temperature • Over/under voltage • Over/under frequency Smart Grid Controller (SGC): The SGC is a supervisory controller and data collection gateway that monitors and can control the consumer load on the power system through the automated metering system. The SGC communicates with the load controllers in each of the ETS units. The 21 residential thermal storage devices represent a set of controlled loads distributed across each phase of the distribution system. These loads can be used by the SGC to capture the excess wind energy as usable heat and to keep the network loading within range. At all times the SGC is monitoring the amount of available excess wind energy signals provided by the HSSC and polling the status of each residential ETS unit through the electrical meters. When additional wind generation is available the HSSC send signals to the SGC. At the end of a prescribed time period, which is based on the cycle times of controllers, communications delays, and forecasted level of energy supply, the SGC sends a signal through the metering system to connect or disconnect each ETS device. The time delays enable reconfiguration of the power system spinning reserve set point and the amount and which ETS units to operate. At the end of a running period of any residential ETS device, the SGC will signal the HSSC. At this time the HSSC will shift load between ETS devices and reconfigure any of the other power system components as appropriate. This reconfiguration could include changing the diesel lineup, operating demand managed load devices, and curtailing wind turbine operation. Each ETS unit contains an under frequency relay to ensure that the power system is stable for connection and automatically disconnects itself during a frequency excursion, i.e. if there is a sudden increase in consumer load. If a communications failure occurs, the ETS units default to under frequency mode. Ongoing work indicates that distributed autonomous load control and two-way communications with the SGC through the metering system could provide a method of system stability at very low cost. 11 Figure 4 below describes the relationship of the SGC to the Meter Control and Management System (MCMS). The MCMS manages meter status and energy usage, and communicates through the SGC to each meter. The SGC is directly connected to a central collector meter. This collector meter communicates with all other meters through a wireless mesh network. Individual customer meters are equipped with a short range Zigbee wireless transceiver that can operate the slave devices on a home area network (HAN). Each ETS unit controller receives signals on this home network. The meters can also communicate other signals to devices on the HAN. One such device is a user interface in each home, which displays energy usage and pricing information. The MCMS is a server based software program, which is able to remotely manage meter data and execute various HAN control programs. The community of Kongiganak and Puvurnaq Power Company have requested that the metering system be operated as a prepay system. The MCMS is automated for prepay and to connect and disconnect customers in the event of non-payment. However there are a number of safeguards built into this system, such as real time customer usage information via the Internet as well as in home display, and a specified daily disconnect time. In an emergency, a residential customer may operate their ETS unit; however the customer will be billed at the full retail rate for electricity consumed. Figure 4. Meter Control and Management. Power System Remote Monitoring: High -resolution data recording by the HSSC is taken up to 10 times per second to accurately record the sequence of events during a fault condition. This data is concentrated through the SGC, which is then archived in a historical database for trending and visualization. The SGC collects and stores data from the HSSC, the electric meters on each home, as well as environmental data, such as outside temperature, wind speed and wind direction. A remote operator can view exactly what the local operator can see 12 using the built in web server in the SGC and the HSSC. In addition, trending analysis can also be done remotely. The SGC is the principle data collection and monitoring device in the system. Data in excess of 250 operating parameters is stored on the SGC and archived daily to a secure database, which can store this information indefinitely. Operating parameters include: ■ Voltages (phase to phase, phase to neutral) ■ Currents ■ Real power ■ Reactive power ■ Power factor ■ Wind speed ■ Wind direction ■ Outdoor temperatures ■ Internal station controller variables and registers ■ Status registers ■ Alarm registers Remote monitoring and control of the plant is also available, using any of the following communications methods: • Telephone • ISDN (digital) • Cellular phone (GSM or CDMA) • Other Internet connection Power System Stability at High Penetration: Stability becomes an important issue in wind diesel installations, especially in a system where the wind turbine output frequently is greater than community electric load. Under low penetration scenarios, when wind energy output is less than 50% of rated diesel capacity, the gen-set governors and voltage regulators provide good load following capabilities and fast response to load changes. Unlike a diesel generator set, a wind turbine's energy source is the constantly changing wind. Sometimes, there will be too much wind and a few seconds later the wind speed may be insufficient to produce power. As the instantaneous proportion of wind energy on the grid increases, special measures must be taken not only to stabilize the amount of power in the grid but the balance between real and reactive power. This balance is reflected in the stability of the frequency and voltage on the system. The frequency is controlled through active load management and voltage is stabilized using power electronics. The integration/stabilization components consist of the control system and diesel generator sets as described above. The power electronics and heat loads that adjust energy flows are 13 described below. The first use of the excess energy is to reduce diesel loading. The second use of the excess energy will be into an electronic boiler that is connected into the large thermal mass of the heat recovery system where it can be stored or released as energy fluctuations occur, while maintaining the temperature of the buildings and generators. To control the flow of energy into the diesel plant heating loop, a power electronics driven electrical boiler will be used. This equipment is based on available power electronic technology and sits between the station power grid and the electric boilers. It uses specialized software to monitor the power system and respond within 250 milliseconds to changes in the balance of generation and load. A single 300 kW power electronics driven boiler will be located in the powerhouse. This boiler will be connected in the power plant heating loop and operate in conjunction with the electronically controlled 260 kWe John Deere engine generators. Primary grid stability necessary for wind -diesel operations is provided by the electronically fuel injected diesel engine driven generators. The throttles on the units are electronically controlled and are able to rapidly respond to changes in electrical demand. A power electronics driven electric boiler is installed between the power plant buss and the power plant heating loop. This device serves three important functions: rapid capture and release control energy in a complementary manner with the variations in the wind, as a buffer for diesel step changes, and reactive power balance. The boiler controller uses specialized software to monitor the power system and respond within 10 milliseconds to changes in the balance of generation and load. At the power plant an electric boiler and power electronics controlled interface will be connected into the power plant heat recovery loop. The power electronics controlled boiler (PCB) uses the electric boiler elements, and a variable load inverter system to provide very fast frequency, voltage and power factor correction and capture of excess wind energy. This PCB power demand would be controlled and used to respond to balance the power system during times of collapsing wind power generation. In this instance the boiler captures the first 25 kW of wind energy and uses this for spinning reserve. The boiler is sized to capture energy to follow the load very closely, balancing the energy generation to the demand through direct frequency control. The boiler is able to absorb up to 300 kW of energy on a continuous basis, which enables it to rapidly absorb longer bursts of energy, on a much smaller scale. The PCB is plumbed directly into the existing power plant heat recovery system. The electric boiler in the plant is regulated as part of the heating system in the washeteria, which receives heat from the hydronic loop, using the same heat exchangers and thermostatic controls. Additional excess wind energy needed to maintain a load balance will be captured in a large commercial ETS unit located in the community center. 14 The community center represents a large interruptible energy sink that represents a balancing load for the energy system. The community center's ETS unit will require separate metering and a service panel, including cables and breakers. The system would use the existing temperature controls and act as a demand managed device controlled through the HSSC. The method of communication proposed is via Ethernet connection. Major community buildings with large heating requirements, such as the school, city offices, clinic, city shop, and water and sewer treatment facilities represent potential customers with large heat demand that could also benefit from excess energy produced by an expanded wind plant. Reactive Power Compensation and Voltage Control Windmatic 17s turbines are equipped with induction generators. This implies that the reactive power requirement of the wind turbines change with changes in power output. During periods of high wind penetration the diesel generators at the power plant may be unable to meet these requirements. Without support, voltage could decrease and an outage could result. Therefore the SVC is installed at the point of common connection of the wind turbines to the power system distribution feeder. This device has the flexibility to efficiently meet reactive power requirements across the full range of fluctuating load conditions. The SVC is designed to make corrections within a single cycle. A filter is included to reduce harmonic resonances within the network. The principal advantages of the SVC over a rotary synchronous compensator are the higher conversion efficiencies, simplified installation and operation, and elimination of mechanical maintenance required for rotating machinery. The SVC is readily scalable to increases in wind energy capacity through the addition of modules. The SVC unit is an inverter -based reactive compensation system, which is integrated with inductors and reactive banks for steady-state voltage regulation, power factor correction and low voltage ride -through capability. The SVC system monitors the voltage and current at the point of interconnect and adjusts its output depending on the compensation required. The SVC alleviates fluctuating voltage and VAR requirements. The SVC package includes the automatically switched shunt capacitors and reactors for additional steady state or dynamic compensation as needed. The SVC system makes use of this available reactive capability of the power factor correction capacitors of the turbine. The SVC will be located on a small deck at the base of the power pole where the wind farm is connected to the distribution line. To eliminate harmonic currents between the grid and the wind turbines, a harmonic filtering system is included. The SVC unit will rely on the ground fault protection of the distribution grid. Additional ground fault protection is provided at the machine and at each transformer. 15 Electric Thermal Storage An average home in Kongiganak uses over 760 gallons of heating fuel annually. During a windy week in the winter, a single home can consume an entire 55- gallon drum of heating fuel. This project proposes to capture the wind and use it to heat homes year-round using Electric Thermal Storage (ETS). ETS is the method of capturing excess wind generated electricity as heat and storing it for use at a later time. An ETS unit is an insulated metal box, about the same size as a Toyo Stove, which contains electric heating elements that lie within special, high -density ceramic bricks. These bricks are capable of storing vast amounts of heat for extended periods of time. During periods of excess wind energy, a signal from the power plant supervisory controller is sent to the metering system. The meters then enable the relays, which turn on elements that heat the bricks. Operation of the system is completely automatic. A sensor monitors the outdoor temperature to regulate the amount of heat the system stores in the bricks. A thermostat regulates the delivery of the heat to the room. Each unit has a built in microprocessor that allows the owner to configure the operation for their needs. There are over 100,000 of these units in operation in the mid -west United States and off-peak heating is common in Europe. The system provides a lower cost, low maintenance method of home heating. The ETS units will be charged on dynamic schedules, charging in periods of high wind. The residential ETS units are sized to provide a maximum heat production of 30,000 Btu/hr. Heating surveys indicate that average hourly living room heat for a residence in Kongiganak is 14,000 Btu/hr. Each ETS unit can both produce and store up enough energy depending on the charge schedule to output 20,000 Btu/ per hour per unit, 24 hours a day. This is similar in size and energy output to a Toyo Stove. The pictures below present an exterior and interior view of a room unit. The dimensions are 58 inches in length, 24.5 inches in height, and 10.5 inches in depth, and when filled with heat charge bricks each unit weighs 690 lbs. The room units (shown above) are non -ducted and are designed to heat the room or area where they are placed. These heaters can be used in new construction applications or as a retrofit or supplement to an existing heating system, and only require an electrical connection to operate. 16 A fan inside the unit circulates stored heat evenly and quietly as the room thermostat calls for heat. Individual units are easy to operate and require very little maintenance. The amount of heat stored in the brick core of the heater is regulated (either manually or automatically) according to seasonal weather conditions using an outdoor temperature sensor and an onboard microprocessor. The Smart metering system enables the ETS to charge and allocates the costs differently between excess wind and diesel only generation. The metering system working with control signals from the diesel plant insures that customers are only charged the reduced excess wind rate for heating. Community Center Electric Thermal Storage: The Wind Diesel Smart Grid Controller measures the consumer load on the system and compares this amount to the amount of generation available. When excess wind energy is available, the HSSC sends a signal to the load controller to the 160 kW electric thermal storage (ETS) unit located in the community building. Any excess power is first switched into the ETS units in the community center, which is connected into the building's heating system through an air-to-air heat exchanger. The excess energy is stored in the heated bricks and drawn upon as needed. Commercial ETS units operate at 480 Volt, 3 phase, and will be located in the community center, and can be placed at other locations throughout the community. Each commercial ETS unit is configured with fifteen separate 10.6 kW resistive heating elements, five per phase. These elements are controlled through silicon -controlled rectifiers (SCRs), which rapidly modulate average power flow from 0 to 100% energy absorption. This capability allows the device to be used for frequency control on the grid. The ETS load controller accomplishes this by measuring frequency and adjusts its energy consumption in response to grid frequency. During frequency excursions, i.e. if there is a sudden increase in consumer load, the device will disconnect itself. This configuration gives refined load control and additional frequency stability. The residential ETS units each have a peak power rating of 9.6 kW and are 240 Volt, single phase. Each residential ETS unit is also equipped with a controller that can adjust consumption in response to signals from the power plant through the electric meter on each household. Additionally each ETS unit will automatically disconnect itself in under frequency conditions. 17 Demand Manaaement for Thermal Stove Activation Large ETS units placed in community facilities will be controlled by the demand managed device control algorithms in the Smart Grid Controller. Communications from the SGC in the power plant will be provided by a wireless connection. Communication between devices will be as follows: 1. Request to run — digital input from thermal device controller 2. Okay to run — digital output from the Supervisory Demand Managed Device Controller to the thermal devices or via the Smart Grid Controller Controls and indicators on Community Center 160 kW electric thermal storage device will include: 1. Auto/Manual switch — in automatic mode the "Okay to run" signal will be issued when the "Request to run" input is asserted and the HSSC reports sufficient spinning reserve to activate the ETS unit as an energy balancing load. 2. Okay to run lamp — lights in response to the ETS device returning an "Okay to run" signal to the HSSC. 3. Communications Failure lamp — illuminates when there is no communication with the HSSC for more than one minute. 4. Communications Failure output — voltage free contact that closes for 10 seconds after a communications failure is declared. This is to attach to an external alarm device to ensure that plant operation is uninterrupted. Operation of the ETS units: 1. The ETS unit is always on and responds to changes in frequency. 2. The HSSC communicates with the ETS device assuring the "Okay to run" signal. If it is not on, it will be started immediately or an alarm will be raised. 3. Other wind turbines will not be allowed to start for the following ten minutes (this is a configurable time delay parameter based on communication round-trip times with the HSSC, ETS and WTC controllers) allowing the HSSC to ascertain whether enough spinning reserve, reactive power support exists on the power system. 4. As the ETS unit approaches full capacity, the HSSC will hold a request for spinning reserve for a period of 10 minutes (time delay is a parameter, before readjusting the spinning reserve request to zero and allowing the diesel plant to return to standard levels of spinning reserve). am 5. If a communications failure occurs, the ETS unit will enable all other residential ETS units to start, and provide a price signal to the metering system. If all ETS devices are at capacity and if additional wind power is still available, the HSSC will reconfigure the power system components and curtail wind power as required. Units that are running will be allowed to keep running until they stop. Power Electronics Boiler System (PEB): The PEB has three distinct roles: 1. To provide a demand managed device capable of delivering heat to a heating loop in a complimentary manner to the availability of renewable power. 2. To provide frequency stabilization through the high speed frequency monitoring and the rapid adjustment of load from the boiler grid interface. 3. To provide a fully adjustable load with small 100W steps and an adjustable power factor without inducing damaging harmonics into the power system. Operation The temperature controller in the power electronics controller monitors the temperature of the heating loop and makes requests to the HSSC controller for power to maintain the temperature. The HSSC sends back a power set point, which the PEB is to maintain a power set point for a specific period of time (2 minutes, fully configurable). This number is based on the amount of uncommitted renewable power available on the system. If the frequency of the grid moves outside of acceptable limits, the PEB will automatically adjust the amount of power it is drawing based on a sliding linear scale in an attempt to maintain control over the frequency. Once the frequency is back within acceptable limits, the PEB returns to its original power set point. If the frequency does not return within acceptable limits over a period of approximately 2 seconds, the HSSC will take additional action (such as modifying the power demand of the community ETS unit, starting additional generator sets or disconnecting any controlled devices) to rectify the situation. Method Of Power Control The PEB uses IGBT technology to create the following competing goals: 1. Fully adjustable 0-100% load control in steps of approximately 0.025%. 2. Fast response time, 0-100% in less than 1/180th of a second. 3. Exceptional power quality, with the option to actively improve the voltage waveform at the expense of maximum load sizing. 19 The IGBT based technology offers smooth and fast power control due to its ability to modify the current draw at any point in the cycle. This feature also allows the IGBT based PEB to draw or stop drawing current at a pre -specified power factor. This feature will help the generators support voltage at the power plant. Metering system Wind/thermal storage requires a method of notifying the ETS units of the availability of low energy and a way to account for the difference in rates. This is done through new meters, which will be placed on each home. The proposed metering platform uses the Itron open way platform, to create a wireless, fully automated, intelligent two-way communications link between the power plant and each meter. The advanced meters offer many additional features that will allow the utility to be managed more effectively, and optimize diesel station operation. The metering system will consist of a single collector meter and 135 customer meters. These meters will communicate wirelessly using a mesh network. The meters are designed for plug and go capability. This eliminates programming and simplifies installation. The Alaska Village Electric Cooperative is using a similar metering system as a best practice management tool. Three important features of the metering system are: 1. Demand control signals injected into the power grid through the metering system. The meter provides a method of 2-way communication, which allows the utility to control ETS units and other devices remotely. Thermal stoves will be enabled for green energy pricing only when a signal from the utility indicates that an excess of wind energy is available. The meter contains a transceiver, which activates a relay in each ETS unit. This signal is adjusted according to the amount of excess wind energy available. The meters can also control other electrical devices such as water heaters and/or controlling lighting or thermostats. 2. User interface - the meters come with an in -home display device that can be used to inform the customer about their cost and energy usage. In the future they can be enabled to enter credit card information to pay bills directly. 3. Pre payment option - the proposed meters can be configured with a prepay option, which requires consumers to pay in advance of use. This feature is requested by small utilities, because it mitigates the financial risks associated with power sales and reduces embarrassing utility disconnects, billing disputes and damage to local relationships. When coupled with the associated user display in each home, the system improves financial management for both the utility and the customer. The in -home display allows utility customers to self manage 20 energy use through real-time, informed decisions about consumption. When combined with the user interface, most customers are typically very satisfied. Through smart metering, the utility will: • Enable time of use and green energy management rate structures • Activate thermal storage devices when wind is available • Understand load profiles and enable demand control schemes • Fairly and more accurately allocate costs of utility service according to actual consumption • Encourage conservation of electricity • Detect system problems and imbalances • Lower the cost of utility service to improve profitability • Recover related costs of utility service to improve revenues Smart Grid Controller/ETS Interface The central SGC measures the consumer load on the system and compares this to the amount of wind spinning reserve available. When additional generation is available the HSSC send signals to the SGC to enable residential ETS units. Each residential ETS unit has an embedded transceiver, which operates the load controller and measures the state of charge of each ETS unit. Like the larger ETS units, the residential ETS controllers measure frequency and disconnect themselves during a frequency excursion. During this time the load controlled boiler and 21 residential thermal storage devices will represent a set of controlled loads, which are used to capture the excess wind energy as usable heat. These devices are used to keep the network loading within range. In this way, blackouts are avoided while the load controllers only operate on connected loads when wind power is available. Initially, load controlled ETS units will be installed evenly across the community distribution feeders. Communications with the residential energy storage devices will be through the metering system. It is not anticipated that the residential ETS loads will be capable of controlling frequency until much more is learned about the systems. The characteristics of the AVR, the PEB and the larger ETS units will be responsible for frequency control. However, it is expected that as more is learned about the characteristics of the power system, the residential ETS units can be used as small controlled loads, which can be switched to maintain the frequency and voltage. At this time, frequency regulation is not provided by residential load control. However, it is envisioned that using two-way communication distributed load control and distributed energy storage could increase the amount of wind energy that can be utilized. 21 The metering system has three major components: • Information Management System (IMS): The IMS is a client/server software application running on a wide area network (WAN) computer system that makes it possible to automatically read and report on the metering functions. Through the IMS, energy usage and meter location are linked. This information can be manipulated in many ways to provide valuable reports, visualize conservation efforts, and improve customer service. • Communications Network: This consists of the wireless meter reading system and an Internet based modem to the collector meter. • Digital Meter: The digital meter replaces the consumer's conventional meter and contains a microprocessor to enable communication with other meters, collector meters, telephone or other communication system and the IMS. The meter housing can also be purchased with an automatic connect -disconnect feature that opens or closes as instructed. These three components create a network of automatically read electric meters, which will be used to create a management system. When combined with load, power production, and environmental data, the metering data will provide a way of measuring performance through electrical demand, energy budget, and conservation program impacts. The meter management and smart grid data servers will provide accurate and easily accessible usage data, which can be collected, communicated and managed very effectively. This network, once established, will become a source of the system evaluation and monitoring information for the operators, managers and customers alike. The metering system serves as a data collection and communication backbone for each customer. The collector meters poll individual facility meters and transfer the information wirelessly to the collector meter, which is transferred to a web -based server via Internet connection. Through the meter management system, all meters would be read daily for system checks and revenue protection, and customer data collected from customized schedules. For higher resolution analysis the meters can be read at one -minute intervals. Automated metering provides the following functionality: • Identifies opportunities to conserve energy and save money • Accurately allocates costs • Collects data to understand usage levels and adjust time of usage charges • Improves and insures customer service quality • Uses the internet to provide 24/7 access • Makes systems hybrid ready with two-way reading, for photovoltaic, wind or other net metering • Provides a method of customer management, pre -payment remote meter reads, off -cycle reads, turn-on/turn-off, load limiting set points • Enables prepaid functionality with energy usage reports for management and budget reporting system, for better cash management 22 • Integrates energy usage with location • Web -based management reports and billing, custom usage reports 23 li e� li -- �E_rr �I I �I I I S 4 I I N I I II I F-------------------- EE �o 4 L I I I � a I *LF- -----------------------------------------------------I I I I I I I I I i� I I Im I I la o� ly I I� I I � I I I I r— I I I L-------- r- I 13 I I � L-------------------10.

A map was attached depicting the approximate location of the sites. Land Status Report Land records were researched at the Bureau of Land Management (BLM), the State Department of Commerce, Community and Economic Development, and the State Recording Office. All research was conducted on line. All of the sites appear to be located within Section 33, Township 2 South, Range 79 West, Seward Meridian. The surface estate of this section was conveyed to Qemirtalek Coast Corporation, the Native Village Corporation, for the village of Kongiganak on November 20, 1981, by Interim Conveyance No. 451. A copy of the recorded document is attached. The conveyance is subject to the requirements of Section 14(c) of the Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act (ANCSA). The subsurface estate was conveyed to Calista Corporation by Interim Conveyance No. 452. Corrected Interim Conveyance No. 1899 was issued to Qemirtalek Coast Corporation on December 24, 2005. This document was issued for the limited purpose of excluding additional Native allotment parcels from the lands transferred by Interim Conveyance No. 451. In Section 33, Township 2 South, Range 79 West, SM, U.S. Survey No. 10172 and U.S. Survey No. 10463 were excluded from the conveyance. However, from the community profile maps, neither of these surveys appear to be in the area of the proposed wind turbine sites. A copy of the recorded interim conveyance is attached. Recommendations From the above cited transactions, it appears that the Qemirtalek Coast Corporation is the owner of the surface estate of the land where the proposed wind turbines are to be located. The owner of the wind turbines should obtain either a long term lease or fee conveyance from Qemirtalek Coast Corporation. A fee conveyance would require a subdivision survey. The entities should make sure none of the proposed facilities sites conflict with any possible future claims under ANCSA 14(c). There was nothing observed in a review of the community profile maps which would indicate any type of structural conflict.

From natural sources we derive, among other things, lighting and heating, and those are the factors which keep the whole economy working. In some states water power forms the basis for natural energy. In other states, like California for instance, wind power is the natural energy source. Actually, the California wind means that millions of kilowatt hours are floating about in the air, so really, it is only a question of harnessing them. The advanced Wind Matic windmill renders this possible through an invest- ment which is not only financially profit- able, but also an extremely solid way to save energy money. In areas which are particularly wind-swept it would be almost unwise not to utilize the wind energy. Wind Matic WM 17 S means a safe investment in the future Here are some facts which speak for investing in windmills Wind power: The investment. It would be an understatement to say that wind power represents a favorable investment opportunity. In fact, thanks to several factors, wind power is one of the most attractive investment opportunities ever offered to the private investor. Wind power is ,pre -sold,,. Federal and state law re uire utility companies to pur- chase all the power that wind generation can produce. That means that every single watt of wind -produced electricity is guaranteed a market! Better still, the utili- ty companies are required to purchase wind -generated power at the ,highest avoided cost« - that is, the maximum rate they would have to pay for conventionally - produced power. Here are some facts which speak for investing in Wind Matic Wind Matic A/S has more than 10 years experience in development and production of windmills and is the Danish company which has the best knowledge in this field. The Wind Matic windmill occupies a prominent position because of the advanced technology and design of the windmill and because the compo- nents used are of high quality. All factors which ensure a reliable, effective opera- tion and a very long life, including very little maintenance. =T<a-> The resuft of many years of research and i A levelopment The Wind Matic 17 S has been devel- oped on the basis of the WM 15 S. The Wind Matic 17 S is the latest devel- opment in our S-series and thus it is con- structed with the purpose of obtaining a higher power output. The WM 17 S is equipped with advanced computer steer- ing, based on micro -processor techno- logy. The annual energy yield of the windmill is dependent on the wind conditions of the site in question and of course the plac- ing of the windmill. The power of the WM 17 S can be read from the power curve below.

The system supervises and controls both the grid and the windmill and will bring the windmill to an immediate halt if any irregularity should arise: 1. Abnormal variations in grid frequency and grid voltage. 2. Overspeed on main and/or generator shaft. 3. Transmission error between large and small generator. 4. Breaking of phase between large and small generator. 5. Thermal overload of generators (tem- peratures measured on two levels). 6. Thermal overload of yaw motor. 7. Thermal overload of gearbox. 8. Abnormal vibrations. 9. Max. yawing period exceeded. 10. Level too low in brake fluid reservoir. 11. Oil level too low in gearbox. 12. Worn brake blocks. 13. Abnormal twisting of cables (automatic un-twisting). Technical specifications WM 17 S 14. Wind speed higher than cut-out speed. When the points stated in 13 and 14 are corrected, the computer control will re -start the windmill automatically. Thyri- stor control from the computer ensures a careful, soft connection to the grid. A display on the control panel indicates any irregularity by the windmill operation or by the grid. Also, other factors such as wind speed, electric power, and the RPM, will appear from the display. This control system also gives you the possibility of connecting a computer for central super- vision.

DESIGN CONCEPTS Three key visualisation concepts have been incorporated in the design of IPSview: Horizontal Screen Navigation The user can traverse most screens horizontally, to avoid having to go back to the top of one branch of screens to get down into another branch of screens. Comparison of information (for example, the water temperature of each generator) is therefore much quicker. Information Using Colour Where possible, icons are colour -coded to represent the different states that a device can hold. This helps the operator to gain an immediate impression of the power station at a glance, without having to read the state of each device. Display Relevant Information Only If the information is not relevant, it is not displayed in IPSview. For example, if a generator is not running, IPSview will NOT show that the set is delivering zero kilowatts at a power factor of zero. Rather, it will leave the information blank in order to make the screen less cluttered and to help the operator to gain an immediate impression of the status of the generator at a glance. (IPSview-Main screen) (IPSview - Generator screen) (IPSview - Parameter screen) Version 0803 Page 3 of 6 www.pcorp.com.au Commander Software Product Specification TECHNICAL INFORMATION THE COMMANDER IPStrends FEATURES • IPStrends can be installed as a separate program or as a part of IPSview. Trend files can be automatically joined together, for instance on a monthly basis. This means the user can scroll through time without interruptions or having to jump from files to file. • IPStrends generates time sequenced trend files which are stored in files for each site and alarm triggered trend files. Alarm triggered trend files contain data with a higher resolution of data recorded at the time of the alarm. New files from the daily download are automatically joined to existing monthly files. • The Commander Master Controller records the data of every power system quantity that is displayed on IPSview. The data is recorded at roughly 200ms time intervals. • IPStrends is a smart data management and trending software package. It utilises a system of only storing differences in data values. This significantly reduces the amount of data with a 200ms time base that can be stored in the Commander Master Controller. • The data is stored in the Commander Master Controller for a period of months before it begins to be overwritten. Most of the data is used for troubleshooting purposes, such as tracking down the cause of blackouts. The Commander Master Controller also records data for administration purposes, such as providing a load profile so that load growth can be predicted for a power station. FUNCTIONS • User configurable trend pages with individual data. pens and time resolutions. • Station data recording and trending. • Consumer feeder data recording and trending. • Generator data recording and trending. • Selectable viewable trend resolution (1 minute to 1 hour). • Transient data recording using high speed resolution (looms to 1 s). .—se•wad Si•[Fad �rl �;��w.�+,�,�.iM,�y,►'�v�l���'`,,n,e,4nr'l,lrs�•+'' g,: (IPStrends screen) Version 0803 Page 4 of 6 www.pcorp.com.au Commander Software Product Specification GENERAL THE COMMANDER Benefits Unique Features • Remote control and monitoring User friendly, parameter driven interface. • Reduced fuel consumption Fax or voice annunciations for automotive alarms. • Reduced operation and maintenance costs Optional performance reporting based on Web access to a Data Server. • Easy asset management Ethernet service interface. • Better genset efficiencies User configurable trending of all power station Reduced need for on -site staff •readings. • Mission critical control (i.e. load shedding) achieved Applications via CAN bus. • Ability to interface to diesel and/or gas generators. • High flexibility for future changes to the power station • Mining operations configuration. • Telecommunication sites Compatibility to most prime mover types. • Defence applications Distributed architecture of the control system • Remote or island communities minimises the risk of outages from a single hardware • Hotel and tourist resorts failure. • Individual towns or villages • Industrial estates • Emergency services and disaster relief • Construction sites Typical Application LAN Work Station CEO'S Financial Controller's Aeration anager ervwe ectrician s Desktop PC Desktop PC Desktop PC Desktop PC IpSworks Software Suite INTERN ET NETSCAPE NETSCAPE EXPLORER NAVIGATOR NAVIGATOR INTERNET rvoi noro npgktnn Pr. rllnninn I IN[ IX Winrlrnlus nr R.qn High Speed M� Data Connecti n 1-Located- at Powercorp or I in Client's Office DATA SERVER - Trends I I -Alarms -Events I ' I ' S232 I I Modem I I RS232 Master Controller I P -Sc ontroI PSnotify Trend Daemon ndustrial PC runnina ONX Operator Interface (P VI w IPStrends Version 0803 Page 5 of 6 www.pcorp.com.au Commander Software Product Specification GENERAL i i..t i.

General Description & Function OVERVIEW The Generator Controller is primarily a microprocessor based control unit capable of controlling, monitoring and displaying all aspects of diesel or gas generator set operation. The genset may be used for isolated or standby applications or for operations in parallel with the mains. The Generator Controller is designed to provide total control for medium sized to big applications with multiple gensets. Unlike traditional installations of engine and power station control systems, the Powercorp Generator Controller units are shipped with quick -connect installation cables. This innovation reduces the expensive on -site labour required to strip, number, terminate and test every core of the control system interface. Instead sensor, power supply, control and communication cables come with industrial IP65 connectors that simply plug into the side of the Generator Controller. Testing and calibration is therefore reduced to a minimum, contributing to a significant reduction in installation costs. Up to 8 Generator Controller units can be operated in parallel on the same field -bus. BASIC FEATURES • Complete engine, generator, and mains protection and controller into one unit. • True RMS sensing. • Synchronisation for one breaker. • Load/var sharing • Counters for kWh, engine starts, operating hours, maintenance call. • Freely configurable discrete and analog alarm inputs. • Freely configurable relay and analog outputs. • PC and front panel configurable. • CAN bus based communication. • UL/cUL Listed.

Operation Modes Each device (generator sets, feeders) controlled by the Commander Master Controller can operate in one of three modes: • Operation Mode — MANUAL If a sub -system is in manual operation, all commands from the Commander Master Controller are isolated from the manual control system. This means that the Commander Master Controller has no control over the dedicated device. In manual operation, interference of operations via the SCADA system or the Commander Master Controller is impossible. The Commander Master Controller continues to log alarms recorded on the devices, as well as to monitor device status but no control functions take place. • Operation Mode — AUTOMATIC If a sub -system is in automatic operation it is automatically controlled by the Commander Master Controller. Manual controls are overridden by the Commander Master Controller commands. In this operation mode manual controls at the device switchboards are disabled. • Operation Mode — OPERATOR In operator mode each device can be started via the on - site or remote SCADA system. In this operation mode manual controls at the device switchboards are disabled. Version 0803 Page 3 of 11 www.pcorp.com.au Commander Master Controller Product Specification F H L ALARMS COMMANDER The Commander Master Controller monitors the status of each device in the power station. Every time an event occurs that has been customised to trigger an alarm, an alarm is logged for that device. Alarms can be viewed on the Operator Interface using the IPSview software. Types of alarms: • SYSTEM ALARM (SA) The Commander Master Controller monitors and check the status of the communication to all devices. If an abnormal situation occurs, the Commander Master Controller raises a system alarm. System alarms are generated by the Commander Master Controller, not individual device controllers. System alarms reset automatically once the alarm condition has been rectified. • WARNING ALARM (WA) The operation of the power station is uninterrupted and the device continues to function normally. The operator should investigate the cause of the warning alarm in due course. The warning alarm will be reset when the alarm condition has been rectified. • NON -CRITICAL ALARM (NCA) Non -critical alarms only occur on the generators. The operation of the power station is uninterrupted but the Commander Master Controller starts replacement generators and takes the generator with the non -critical alarm off line when sufficient replacement capacity is online. The operator should investigate the cause of the non -critical alarm immediately. The non -critical alarm will be reset when the alarm condition has been rectified and the operator has acknowledged the alarm. • CRITICAL ALARM (CA) The operation of the power station may be interrupted, potentially causing a blackout. The Commander Master Controller attempts to stabilise the power system and restore grid voltage and frequency. The operator should investigate the cause of the critical alarm immediately. The critical alarm will be reset when the alarm condition has been rectified and the operator has acknowledged the alarm. Station Alarms Defines the various alarms that can occur in the power station. • Station Black Alarm. • Station No Generators Alarm. • Station No Feeders Alarm. • Station Power Supply Failed Alarm. • Station Fire Alarm. • Station Battery Charger Failed Alarm. • Station Under Frequency Alarm. • Station Over Load Alarm. • Station Intruder Alarm. • Station Lack of Capacity Alarm. • Station Temperature Communications Alarm. • Station LLP (Local Light & Power) Power Monitor Alarm. • System CPU Over Temperature Alarm. • System CMOS Battery Low Alarm. • System CPU Watchdog Alarm. • System Parameter Write Alarm. • System Operation Data Lost Alarm. • System Reboot Alarm. • System Fatal Alarm. • Station Emergency Stop Alarm.

(50 caloritech American Superconductor° REVOLUTIONIZING THE WAY THE WORLD USES ELECTRICITY® dSVCTMPad-Mounted SVC for Distribution Systems The American Superconductor (AMSC) dSVC solution is a completely self-contained, semi - custom, pad -mounted static VAR compensator (SVC) suitable for use on underground distribution circuits. The dSVC technology brings capabilities to distribution systems previously available only in highly complex and expensive transmission level SVCs. The dSVC solution can address many systems issues including: AMSC dSVC solution shown at far right with existing circuit equipment • Boosting the quality of service on a distribution circuit by eliminating minor voltage sags and reducing major voltage sags. • Reduces the number of capacitor banks required to improve feeder operations. • Isolating the effects of voltage flicker caused by one or more customers from the surrounding distribution circuit. • Optimizing feeder power factors to high levels in real-time, reducing reactive power losses and maximizing circuit capacity at all times. Proven Technolo The dSVC technology is fully solid-state and provides transient -free switching. It connects directly to medium voltage distribution systems without the need for step-up transformers. These characteristics allow the system to be set to switch as quickly, and as often, as needed without wear -and -tear concerns. The AMSC dSVC solution shares the same technology as AMSC's traditional turnkey SVCs. AMSC SVCs are used for applications ranging from wide area transmission voltage stability applications to correcting troublesome loads in industrial facilities such as metal shredders, crushers, pumps and pipelines. Multiple Siting Options The dSVC is completely contained within a large pad -mount enclosure. This compact footprint permits a variety of installation options: • Distribution substations, • Along distribution circuits, or • Adjacent to customers causing voltage instabilities that affect thousands of customers sharing the same circuit In addition to raising the quality of service by eliminating customer -induced problems, the dSVC solution also improves the quality of electrical service when problems occur elsewhere on the grid (e.g., sags and "blips"). With only a one -cycle response rate and rated capacity, the dSVC solution effectively insulates customers on a distribution circuit. Advanced Control Options The dSVC solution offers three standard control modes: • Capacitor Emulation: Voltage, VAR and current control, with adjustable time -of -day standard. No restriction on frequency of switch/re-switch operations • Power Quality: Adjustable one- and three-phase flicker and sag control • Full SVC Mode: Emulation of a transmission SVC with slow voltage regulation within adjustable limits (nominal operation) combined with one -cycle voltage correction when limits are exceeded The control is field -adjustable and fully capable of single- and three-phase VAR and voltage control in response to both load- and utility -induced voltage changes. The control can also control and coordinate the operation of multiple conventional switched capacitor banks on the same feeder or bus. An integrated data logger and analyzer provides regular information on circuit and dSVC equipment performance, transmitting automatic alerts to user personnel in case of alarms, and provides high speed current, voltage and harmonic records for all distribution system excursions. Scalable, Easy to Site and Install The dSVC technology provides a highly scalable distribution voltage solution that is designed for placement on new or existing circuits. The dSVC can be specified, supplied and installed quickly to solve voltage sag and flicker problems. Reactive power rating: Up to 6 MVAR @ 15 kV, 3 MVAR @ 5 kV Voltage rating range: Up to 15 kV, 50 or 60 Hz Step-up transformer: None required, direct connection at system voltage Response time: Adiustable: down to one cvcle Standard Control options: Capacitor Control Emulation: Voltage, VAR, and current control, with adjustable time -of -day standard. No time delay required between switching operations. Power Quality: Adjustable one -and -three phase flicker and sag control. Full SVC Mode: Emulation of a transmission SVC with slow voltage regulation within adjustable limits (nominal operation) combined with one -cycle voltage correction when adjustable limits exceeded.
