Innovative Solutions to Better Manage Contracted Capacity

Overview

Large Embedded Generation (EG) consumers have to book grid capacity from Singapore Power. They also have to pay for the use of the grid through a combination of fixed and variable charges. In particular, EG consumers tend to book higher grid capacity in case the EG fails to meet the load demand.

Alternatively, EG consumers can opt to cut off power when demand exceeds contracted capacity and reduce their capacity charges.

With the growing increase in EGs, EMA is keen to explore innovative solutions that will allow EG consumers to better manage their load demand and reduce capacity charges.

EMA welcomes comments and feedback on innovative solutions to better allow consumers to manage their load demand drawn from the grid.

Some ideas worth exploring include:

  • How the cost of implementing LLDs could be lowered;

  • How power drawn from the network could be moderated or reduced when it exceeds the contracted capacity of the Load Facility; and

  • How to trigger power supply cut-off only when localised system constraints are due to happen.

One potential solution could be to explore capping (instead of cutting) power supply when demand exceeds contracted capacity. Another solution may be to use Energy Storage Solutions (and other smart grid devices) to supplement existing grid connection schemes.
