Grid Connect Operation in Time of Use Dispatch Mode Time of Use setting is done using a PC with CRMS software. Refer to the CRMS Technical Reference User’s Edition (410013) for configuring this dispatch mode. Load Following Load Following mode utilizes microturbine power in excess of the base power supplied by the utility grid (when required by external loads), allowing the microturbine to track local electrical loads, and supplying only as much power as is required. The microturbine regulates the utility power flow to an adjustable maximum - the utility power setpoint. If the local demand rises above this level by an adjustable amount for a selected time period, the microturbine is dispatched to supply the difference (up to its capacity). Figure 4-4 illustrates how a microturbine may be utilized in Load Following mode. In this illustration, the C200 microturbine supplies power above a utility power setpoint of 300 kW, up to its maximum power generation capability. Note that when actual load requirements fall below the 300 kW utility setpoint, the C200 microturbine stops exporting power. When setting up an external power meter, it is also possible to connect a reverse power pulse signal to the C200 microturbine and use this input to automatically shut down the turbine to avoid exporting power to the utility grid. Refer to Chapter 9: Protective Relay Functions in this document for details. 410066 Rev C (June 2009) 4-12 Capstone reserves the right to change or modify, without notice, the design, specifications, and/or contents of this document without incurring any obligation either with respect to equipment previously sold or in the process of construction. NOTE Load Following requires an external power meter. The power meter is not supplied with the microturbine and must be connected between the microturbine and the electric service entrance. Refer to Chapter 10: Communications and Chapter 12: Installation in this document for additional details regarding meter requirements. kWPDF Image | CAPSTONE C200 MICROTURBINE TECHNICAL REFERENCE
