G83314-502213 ISIS Report Executive Summary The Interconnection System Impact Study (ISIS) report for Midwest Independent System Operator (MISO) Generation Interconnection Requests identified as Projects G833, Queue

39297-01, and G834, Queue #39297-02, to the 345-kV transmission system in Manitowoc County, Wisconsin, was originally posted in July 2008 and the revision (#3) was posted on December 18, 2008. On January 14 and 16, 2009, the Interconnection Customer submitted additional requests of 6 MW per unit (MIS0 Generator Interconnection Requests J022 and 5023) and the original dynamic models of the generators were modified. As a result, the requested additional generation is 59 MW for each of the Point Beach Nuclear generators with a total increase in plant output of 11 8 MW over the existing Interconnection Agreement. Each generator was studied with a net output, as measured at the low-side of the generator step-up transformer, of 619.56 MW net (642.96 MW gross per unit). The requested commercial operation date is May 31, 2010 for G834lJ023 (Point Beach Unit 1) and May 31, 201 1 for G833JJ022 (Point Beach Unit 2).

This ISIS report identifies the Interconnection Facilities and Network Upgrades needed to facilitate the requested interconnection for either Energy Resource Interconnection Service (ERIS) or Network Resource Interconnection Service (NRIS). For interconnection, the good faith estimate of cost for the Network Upgrades identified in this report is approximately between $13 1 million and $246 million. The cost range of the proposed project has been updated from the draft report to a range of costs due to the uncertain condition of the existing 3451138 kV double circuit structures reported from ATC Asset Management in their recent review of the draft system impact study. The condition of the existing 3451138 kV structures will be evaluated as part of the detailed engineering study during the Facilities Study. The preliminary, good faith estimate of schedule indicates that all of the Network Upgrades can be in-sewice within 8-10 years of an executed Generator Interconnection Agreement.

Although there are no required Interconnection Facilities for this project, ATC recommends installing 345 kV circuit breakers on the high side of each of the two 34Y13.2 kV auxiliary transformers to prevent a breaker failure event during auxiliary transformer faults from tripping Point Beach generation. Although a fault on these transformers does not cause the local generators such as Point Beach and Kewaunee to lose synchronism with the required Network Upgrades assumed in-service, ATC still recommends that the Interconnection Customer reduce the primary fault clearing time for the Point Beach auxiliary transformer from 5.1 cycles to 4.0 cycles to prevent these faults from causing the instability of the local generators until the proposed solution is in service. Section 1.3 describes the reliability benefits of these recommendations.

This study was performed with the proposed Power System Stabilizers at Point Beach in-service.

The Interconnection Customer must commission a tuning study for the new Point Beach Power System Stabilizers (PSSs) as described in Section 1.3 of this report.

The Interconnection Customer will have to submit the Definitive Planning Continuation milestones (M3) prior to entering the Facilities Study for this project. An Interconnection American Transmission Company Page 4 of 132 101212009

G83314-502213 ISIS Report Facilities Study will specify in more detail the time and cost of the equipment, engineering, procurement and construction of the system upgrades identified in the ISIS report.

G833/4-502213 ISIS Report This study evaluates the impact of the proposed 118 MW increase in generation at the Point Beach nuclear plant which is connected to the 345 kV transmission system in Manitowoc County, Wisconsin. This is the re-study of the Interconnection System Impact Study (ISIS) for Generator Interconnection Requests G833 and G834 (53 MW per unit, Queue #39297-01 and

39297-02) and the ISIS for requests 5022 and 5023 (6 MW per unit, Queue dates: January 14 and 16,2009). This study incorporates the updated dynamic models of the generator provided by the Interconnection Customer. The customer has requested the following dates for the various stages of interconnection:

e Interconnection Facilities In-Service (Backfeed) Date: Existing facility, not applicable.

e Initial Synchronization Date: Not supplied e

Commercial Operation Date: May 31, 2010 for G83415023 and May 31, 201 1 for G83315022.

Due to the proposed commercial operation dates of the Interconnection Requests (i.e. May 2010 for Unit #I at Point Beach and May 201 1 for Unit #2 at Point Beach), a study report is posted describing the "interim" system improvements that can form the basis for a Temporary Interconnection Agreement until the Network Upgrades described in this ISIS report can be completed. The "Interim Operation" Re-study Report can be found at:

http://oasis.midwestiso.org/documents/ATC/Cluster8 - Queue.htm1.

The Interim Operation Re-study Report examines the period between the expected commercial operation date and the expected completion date of a long term solution to identify the possible unit restrictions andlor interim system improvement needed during the interim periods. After implementation of the upgrades needed for "interim" operation, there are several issues that must be addressed to ensure that the Point Beach generation increase is reliable beyond temporary operation. The issues are:

(1) Generator instability due to the isolation of Point Beach Generator 1 on L l l l (Point Beach-Sheboygan) which occurs when Point Beach 345 kV breaker 2-3 is out of service and L121 (Point Beach-Forest Junction 345 kV) trips, (2) Generator instability due to the outage of 6832 (Fox River-North Appleton) followed by a fault on R-304 (Kewaunee-North Appleton),

(3) Most significantly, limitations on Point Beach and Kewaunee generating unit reactive power output at all hours. Generator instability was identified for fault conditions when Point Beach and Kewaunee units produce relatively small reactive power output (over-excitation) or absorbs reactive power fiom transmission system (under-excitation).

Reactive power output from a synchronous machine has an impact on the transient stability of the unit. Typically, the lower the excitation on a generating unit, the less stable the unit tends to be under a fault condition. The results of the interim operation study indicate that a certain level of reactive power output (over-excitation) needs to be maintained to ensure generation stability in anticipation of critical fault conditions. The units may not be allowed to reduce their MVAR outputs, reducing their effectiveness in controlling system voltage.

American Transmission Company Page 7 of 132

G83314-502213 ISIS Report The interim operation study identified that, for temporary operation, Issue (1) and (2) should be mitigated by reducing generation at Point Beach to 580 MW (GI gross) and 600 MW (G2 gross) respectively, and Issue (3) should be mitigated by maintaining MVAR output from Point Beach and Kewaunee to a certain level through the use of Minimum Excitation Limiter settings. Issue (1) may be addressed by a long term solution such as reconfiguring the existing Point Beach substation such that Point Beach Unit #1 cannot be isolated on 345-kV line L111. However, a more robust long term solution such as a new 345 kV line andor substation will be needed to address Issue (2) and Issue (3). Issues (2) and (3) can not be solved by reconfiguring Point Beach because the issues are primarily due to the limited number of 345-kV outlets out of Fox Valley area for the amount of generation located in this area.

This System Impact Study is performed to identify a long-term solution that addresses the following needs andor provides benefits:

Addresses the generation instability issues under prior outage conditions, Ensures a wider operating envelope for the local transmission system and the interconnected generators by permitting generating unit operation at unity or under-excited conditions, Provides better maintenance and operations flexibility during planned or unplanned transmission outage conditions by tying together critical transmission elements in strategic locations and, possibly, providing an additional transmission outlet, and Relieves loadings under intact and contingency conditions on the existing 138 kV and 345 kV lines running from Fox Valley area to the south by providing an additional transmission outlet.

This study also identifies steady state system thermal and voltage impacts, system angular stability impact and the circuit breaker fault duty impacts associated with the interconnection of G833lJ022 and G83415023. These interconnection system impacts are based on AC power flow analyses, transient stability analysis and short circuit analysis. This study also identifies the Network Upgrades and Interconnection Facilities required to eliminate any unacceptable system impacts and to allow the generator to interconnect to the system. Preliminary, good faith estimates of cost and schedule will be provided for the identified Network Upgrades.

The Generator Interconnection Procedures permit the Interconnection Customer to request specific Backfeed, Initial Synchronization and Commercial Operation Dates. G833lJ022 and G834lJ023 involve increasing output from existing generators and the required Interconnection Facilities already exist. The Interconnection Facilities Study process will include a high-level evaluation of any known scheduled outage requirements. The scheduled outage requirements and associated evaluations will continue to be refined as project implementation details progress.

The proposed increase in Point Beach generation will be obtained by increasing the thermal power of the reactor. This will require the rewinding of the stator and rotor of the existing Point Beach generators. No changes to the Point Beach substation layout are required to "interconnect" the increased generation since the units are already connected to the transmission grid. Figure 1.1 shows the expected 345 kV transmission system topology near the Point Beach substation for the 201 1 time frame, including the required Network Upgrades that eliminates the stability issues found with the increased Point Beach generation.

American Transmission Company Page 8 of 132 10/2/2009

G83314-502213 ISIS Report Note that Figure 1.1 shows the existing substation layout for the existing Generating Facilities.

Figure 1.1 provides a conceptual, equivalent depiction of the Interconnection Customer's Generating Facilities. The Interconnection Customer will need to supply Generating Facility diagrams for the Generator Interconnection Agreement.

Required construction outages to build the new 345 kV substations and the new 345 kV and 138 kV lines will be reviewed further in the Interconnection Facilities Study, along with outages required for the other identified Network Upgrades. Any requested outage must be cleared through an ATC screening process and be formally submitted (outage is logistically supported with a work order and associated construction resources) to the Midwest IS0 for approval. The Midwest IS0 studies outages based on the submitted queue position within their outage scheduling database.

In order for G833lJ022 and G834lJ023 to interconnect, the required Network Upgrades and Interconnection Facilities must be completed.

1.1 Injection ~imits' The injection limits are identified in Tables A.l and A.2 in Appendix A and are listed below.

The thermal study identified no steady-state thermal violations for NERC Category A (intact system).

The study identified two steady-state thermal violations for NERC Category B (N-1) events that meet the criteria for injection limits:

1. Point Beach-New North Switching Station 345 kV Line (Point Beach-Sheboygan Energy Center Ll 1 1 east)

2. New East substation-Cedarsauk 345 kV line (Edgewater-Cedarsauk 796L41 southern section)

As documented in the G83314-J02213 Interim Operation Re-study Report, the Point Beach-Sheboygan Energy Center line will be uprated independently by ATC for improvement due to MIS0 energy market impacts.

The Network Upgrades for these injection limits are described in Section 1.4 and are required for either ERIS or NRIS for the full 1 18 MW of requested interconnection service of G83314-502213.

' See Appendix F, Section F3.1 for a definition of what transmission overloads qualify as injection limits.

G83314-502213 ISIS Report 1.2 Generating Facility Operation Restrictions Various potential thermal constraints are shown in Table A.7 and A.8 in Appendix A for Category C.3 events. In general, re-dispatching generators in the local area may relieve the loadings on the constraints. Since thermal constraints will be mitigated in the day-ahead and real-time market through the MIS0 binding constraint procedure, no operating restrictions are listed for the thermal constraints.

Three potential thermal constraints were found for Category C.5 event, which is the outage of two circuits on a multi-circuit tower. No operating restrictions are listed for these thermal constraints because the New East-Cedarsauk 345 kV line shown in Table A.9 will be uprated as one of the Network Upgrades required for G83314-502213 and the other two constraints, which can be mitigated by local generation redispatch, are not considered as thermal constraints due to G83314-J02213.

With all Network Upgrades assumed in-sewice and the revised Minimum Excitation Limiter settings for Point Beach and Kewaunee units maintained at the level described in Appendix I, there are no generation restrictions due to stability issue for the conditions studied.

1.3 Generating Facility Requirements Point Beach Power System Stabilizers The existing Point Beach Power System Stabilizers (PSS) are required due to inadequate rotor angle damping under certain system conditions. The G833IJ022 and G834lJ023 projects will continue to require the use of PSS on the Point Beach units. This study incorporated the modified PSS information supplied by the Interconnection Customer and it assumed that the PSS for each unit was in-service for each simulation. The re-tuning of the PSS should be reviewed and commissioned by experienced professionals. The results of the on-site PSS tuning, including the parameters expressed in terms of the appropriate power system stabilizer models in the Siemens PTI PSSIE program, must be provided to ATC prior to the commercial operation of each upgraded unit. ATC will then test the performance of the Point Beach units with the tuned parameters in the computer simulations to ensure that rotor angle damping is within criteria.

Auxiliary Transformers TlX03 and T2X03 High-Side Breakers ATC recommends that new 2 cycle 345 kV circuit breakers and adequate relaying be installed on the high-side of Point Beach auxiliary transformers TlX03 and T2X03 to avoid a trip of the Point Beach units for a breaker failure event (Table 1.4).

The current configuration of the Point Beach substation is shown in Figure 1.2. Due to the current design where the Bulk Electric System equipment is providing the primary fault protection for the TlX03 and T2X03, the following events would occur for a fault on the TlX03 or T2X03 equipment, including a fault at the 13.8 kV level:

American Transmission Company Page 11 of 132

G83314-J02213 ISIS Report

1. ForafaultonTlX03,

a. With normal clearing, 345 kV bus #1 will be removed from service and result in the loss of the network connection to Sheboygan Falls Energy Center substation via 345 kV line L111.

b. With delayed clearing on 345 kV bus tie 1-2,345 kV bus #1 and 345 kV bus #2 will be removed from service and result in the loss of the following elements:

i. 345 kV line Ll 1 1 to Sheboygan Falls Energy Center substation, ii. 345 kV line L121 to Forest Junction substation and iii. Point Beach generating unit #l.

2. For a fault on T2X03,

a. With normal clearing, 345 kV bus #5 will be removed from service and result in the loss of the network connection to Fox River substation via 345 kV line L15 1.

b. With delayed clearing on 345 kV bus tie 4-5,345 kV bus #4 and 345 kV bus #5 will be removed from service and result in the loss of the following elements:

i. 345 kV line L15 1 to Fox River substation and ii. Point Beach generating unit #2.

The addition of new 2 cycle 345 kV circuit breakers will eliminate the loss of 345 kV (i.e. Bulk Electric System) elements for the more probable normal fault clearing events and will substantially reduce the impact of certain delayed clearing events by eliminating a trip of a Point Beach generating unit. ATC recommends these circuit breaker additions to improve the reliability of the transmission network and power plant interconnection, bringing the substation configuration closer to current ATC design standards.

Reduction of Auxiliary Transformers TlX03 and T2X03 Primary Clearing Times ATC also recommends, regardless of whether or not the recommended TlX03 and T2X03 2 cycle 345 kV circuit breakers are installed, that the existing 5.1 cycle auxiliary transformer 345 kV fault primary clearing time should be reduced to 4.0 cycle to prevent loss of synchronism on the Point Beach and Kewaunee generators for high side faults on these auxiliary transformers cleared in primary time until the proposed solution in place (see G83314-502213 Interim Operation Study Report). With the proposed solution and the planned Kewaunee bus reconfiguration assumed in-service, no stability issues were identified without the recommended circuit breakers. The existing primary clearing time is acceptable with the present system configuration and generation levels. With the addition of G83314-502213, failure to reduce these fault clearing times to the recommended times would result in loss of synchronism on the generators for the faults until completion of the proposed solution.

G833/4-J02213 ISIS Report SEC FJT 1 KEW FOX Figure 1.2 - Existing Point Beach Substation Conjigzrration Power Factor Capabilitv The G83314-502213 customer has submitted a generating facility design capable of maintaining power delivery at continuous rated power output at the POI (Point of Interconnection) at all power factors over 0.95 leading (when a facility is consuming reactive power from the transmission system) to 0.94 lagging (when a facility is supplying reactive power to the transmission system). For the steady-state scenarios examined, study results indicate that satisfactory system performance is achieved by supplying a range of -21 1.3 to 233.4 Mvars (gross) to the system. In addition, study done with minimum excitation limits assumed in-service also showed adequate results.

Plant Specific Voltage Requirements The Point Beach Nuclear Plant has specific 345 kV voltage range requirements. The preferred range is 352 kV (1.020 pu) to 354 kV (1.026 pu), the normal range is 351 kV (1.017 pu) to 358 kV (1.037 pu) and the maximum permissible is 348.5 kV (1.010 pu) to 362 kV (1.049 pu). A new high voltage limit of 360 kV has been proposed by the plant and incorporated into this study.

Any voltage outside the maximum permissible range is a voltage limitation as described in the plant technical specifications.

1.4 Network Upgrades In addition to the Network Upgrades listed below, both Point Beach units and the Kewaunee unit will be required to maintain the revised Minimum Excitation Limit settings on these units to ensure stable operation for a variety of fault conditions. The proposed limits are lower than the settings required in the Interim Operations Restudy Report and can be found in Appendix I.

G83314-J022/3 ISIS Report Existing Network Upgrades Required Before G83314-502213 Operation (See Table 1.1)

Injection Upgrades Analysis prior to G833lJ022 and G834lJ023 found no required system upgrades due to injection limits.

Voltage Related Analysis prior to G833lJ022 and G83415023 found no unacceptable voltages.

Breaker Duty Related No existing over-duty circuit breaker conditions were found to be significantly (i.e. 21%)

impacted prior to the addition of G833lJ022 and G834lJ023. Therefore, no over-dutied circuit breakers are identified in Table 1.1.

Network Upgrades Required Due to G833lJ022 and G834lJ023 Addition (See Table 1.2.a)

The preliminary, good faith estimate of schedule indicates that all of the Network Upgrades can be in-service within 8-1 0 years of an executed Generator Interconnection Agreement.

Stability Upgrades (see Table 1.2.a)

To achieve adequate system stability with G833lJ022 and GI33415023 in service, the following Network Upgrades are required. See Table 1.2.a for more details:

1) An eight position (expandable to twelve) 345 kV and six position (expandable to ten) 138 kV breaker-and-a-half scheme substation located at the intersection of the existing 345 kV lines W-1 (Edgewater-South Fond Du Lac) and L-SEC3 1 (Sheboygan Energy Center-Granville). A new 3451138 kV transformer capable of at least 5001625 MVA for SN and SE needs to be installed at the new substation. The existing 345 kV lines W-1, L-SEC31 and 796L41 (Edgewater-Cedarsauk) are looped into the new substation. The existing 138 kV line X-57 (South Sheboygan Falls-Mullet River) and the line from Holland are looped into the substation. New 138 kV line from Plymouth is terminated at the substation (see also item 6).

2) A six position (expandable to ten) breaker-and-a-half scheme substation located near the intersection of the existing 345 kV line L l l l (Point Beach-Sheboygan Energy Center) and the existing 138 kV line L90 (Shoto - Glenview). The existing 345 kV lines L l l l and L121 (Point Beach-Forest Junction) are looped into the new switching station.

3) Conversion of the existing lines 971K5 1 (Forest Junction-Howard Grove 138 kV line) and portion of HOLG21 (Howards Grove-Plymouth #4-Holland 138 kV line) to 345 kV

(-48 miles). It is terminated at Forest Junction and New East 3451138 kV substation and then looped into the new North 345 kV switching station.

4) Construction of new double circuit 345 kV lines to loop the line 796L41 into the new East substation (-1.1 miles)

5) Construction of new double circuit 345 kV lines to loop the line L121 into the new North switching station (-3.2 miles)

6) Construction of new 138 kV lines to form new East-Plymouth-Howards Grove-Erdman 138 kV lines (-1 6 miles).

G83314-J02213 ISIS Report Injection Upgrades (see Table 1.2.a)

In summary, the study identified the following line segment which will need to be upgraded to achieve the necessary rating.

0 Cedarsauk-New East 345-kV line 796L41 south (24.1 miles) must be uprated to obtain a minimum summer emergency rating of 960 MVA or higher. The required rating (960 MVA) is from Table A.7 (NERC C.3). This value was selected as the target rating to address potential overloads of the line under various multiple contingency events evaluated.

Point Beach-New North 345 kV line L l l l (51.1 miles) must be uprated to obtain a minimum summer emergency rating of 754 MVA or higher. ATC has a planned project, as an independent economic benefit project, for the Point Beach-Sheboygan Energy Center line uprate to a summer emergency rating of 1095 MVA (1834 A), which is higher than the required rating for G83314-502213. The proposed in-sewice date of the line uprate project is April 25,2010 (ATC Project PR03208).

2. Criteria, Methodology and Assumptions 2.1 Study Criteria All relevant MISO-adopted NERC Reliability Criteria and the American Transmission Company contingency criteria are to be met for thermal, voltage and angular stability analysis. Details of the analysis criteria used in this study can be found in Appendix F.

2.2 Study Methodology The results of this study are subject to change. The results of the study are based on data provided by the Generator and other ATC system information that was available at the time the study was performed, and the injection study does not guarantee deliverability to the MIS0 energy market. If there are any significant changes in the generator and controls data, earlier queue Generator Interconnection Requests, related Transmission Service Requests, or ATC transmission system development plans, then the results of this study may also change significantly. Therefore, this request is subject to restudy. The Generator is responsible for communicating any significant generating kility data changes in a timely fashion to MIS0 and ATC prior to commercial operation.

2.2.1 Competing Generation Requests ATC determined in its judgment that four Interconnection Requests with an earlier Queue Position may impact the G833lJ022 and G834lJO23 study results. G427, G590, G611 and G773 are included in all of the thermal analysis cases. Because of their location on the 138 kV system, G590, G611 and G773 were not included in the stability models.

Public information related to the MIS0 Interconnection Request queue can be found at:

G83314-502213 ISIS Report 2.2.2 Power Flow Analysis Methods Thermal overloads were identified using AC power flow solutions. All AC power flow solutions utilized actual equipment ratings in MVA (i.e. 0% TRM) along with real and reactive power flows. A 5% TRM was factored in the computation of required MVA rating for the limiting elements.

All AC power flow solutions were performed using the Power Flow module of the Power System SimulationIEngineering-30.3.2 (PSSIE, Version 30.3.2) program from Siemens Power Technologies, Inc (PTI). This program is accepted industry-wide for power flow analysis.

2.2.3 Stability Analysis ATC recently conducted extensive stability analysis of the area near the Point Beach generators and determined that there were no generation limitations for intact and single outage conditions, with the existing Power System Stabilizers (PSS) in service, and prior to requests G833lJ022 and G834lJ023. Simulations were performed with G833lJ022 andor G834lJ023 in service to determine the stability impacts that attributed to the additional generation with the latest dynamic data submitted to MIS0 for J022lJ023. Any violations of the stability study criteria (in Appendix F) identified with the increased generation in service can be attributed to the G833lJ022 and G834lJ023 interconnection request and are documented in this report.

For the analysis, the proposed Point Beach Power System Stabilizers are assumed in-service.

Simulatedtested clearing times shown in each table in Appendix C contains the required planning margin described in Section 3.2.

The stability and grid disturbance performance analysis was performed using the Dynamics Simulation and Power Flow modules of the Power System SimulationIEngineering-29 (PSSIE, Version 29.5.1) program from Power Technologies, Inc (PTI). This program is accepted industry-wide for dynamic stability analysis.

2.3 Base Cases 2.3.1 Power Flow Analysis (Steady State)

Base cases used in the thermal and voltage analysis for this study were developed based upon the 2013 Summer Peak and Summer Off-Peak MIS0 Definitive Planning Phase (DPP) Cycle 2 Models developed from 2013 MIS0 Transmission Expansion Plan (MTEP) models built in 2008. According to MISO, the existing generators in the DPP Cycle 2 models were dispatched to serve the control area load, and the remaining generators were dispatched based on contracts.

Based on the new MIS0 Generation Interconnection Business Practice Manual (BPM), all wind generation including competing wind generation was dispatched at 20% of nameplate capacity for summer peak load conditions and 100% for summer off-peak load conditions.

For the AC power flow analysis, half of the output of G833lJ022 and G834lJ023 was delivered to the WAPA control area and the remaining half was delivered to the TVA control area. This dispatch pattern in the AC analysis was used to mimic delivery to the MIS0 footprint.

G83314-502213 ISIS Report 2.3.2 Stability Analysis (Dynamics)

The 2010 50% of system peak load base case used in the stability analysis was developed based upon the ATC 2009 Ten Year Assessment 50% peak load dynamics-ready model fiom the 2007 Series NERC MMWG cases. The ATC area was replaced with the 2010 planned and proposed projects and load and generation was set to expected levels. The Kewaunee bus reconfiguration project planned for 2011 was also modeled in the study cases. All local and competing generators were dispatched at full output in accordance with ATC's generator interconnection study methodology. The resulting additional generation was delivered to CornEd (75%) and Northern States Power (25%) control areas.

Two stability scenarios were studied for G833lJ022 and G834lJ023. Specifically, high local generation and low local generation models were created. Only the wind generator (G427) located at Cypress 345-kV substation was considered as the competing generator for stability analysis based on the assumption that other wind generators connected at 138 kV would not significantly impact the stability results. For the high generation scenario, in addition to Point Beach, all local generation (Kewaunee, Fox River, Sheboygan Energy, South Fond du Lac and Cypress) were modeled with maximum generation. Weston Units 3 and 4 were also in service.

For the low generation scenario, the same dispatch was used except that the Fox Energy, Sheboygan Energy, Cypress and South Fond du Lac were modeled as off-line.

G83314-502213 ISIS Report Later, as shown in Appendix H, various voltage regulation set points of the generators were studied to evaluate the dynamic stability performance of each option in terms of minimum MVAR limitation of Point Beach and Kewaunee.

Dynamic model changes that have been reported to ATC have been incorporated into the Point Beach generator stability models. In addition, the generator step up transformers will be replaced as part of the G833lJ022 and G834lJ023 projects and these modifications were incorporated into the model.

After the units are physically modified and prior to initial unit synchronization, final generator dynamic models should be provided so that operational studies confirming the results of this study can be completed.

The actual clearing times determined using information from the Interconnection Customer and used for the analysis contained in this report are:

1. For GSU transformers TlXOl and T2XO1, the primary clearing time is 4.5 cycles and the breaker failure clearing time is 12.5 cycles for bus breakers and 13.0 cycles for line breakers.

2. For auxiliary transformers T 1 X03 and T2X03, the primary clearing time is 5.1 cycles and the breaker failure clearing time is 12.3 cycles for bus breakers and 23.5 cycles for line breakers.

It should be noted that the actual clearing times listed above do not contain any ATC planning margins. Also, the actual clearing times assume the recommended high side auxiliary transformers breakers are not installed.

2.4.2 Voltage Sag Criteria Based on the voltage sag criteria information provided by the Interconnection Customer on March 13 2009, 19 kV and 345 kV bus voltage relay settings at Point Beach were also modeled and monitored during for the dynamic stability study.

G83314-J02213 ISIS Report The Point Beach nuclear units are presently undergoing design development to support the inclusion of generator breakers in their Iso-phase Bus connections. The generator breaker(s) will be positioned so as to enable a generating unit trip at the generator output voltage level/position without the need to de-energize the main transformers. Since the high voltage side breakers will remained closed, the power plant auxiliary buses are intended to be powered via the backfeed Main Transformers and the Iso-phase bus direct-connected Unit Auxiliary Transformers. This arrangement eliminates the presently needed high speed transfer of auxiliary busses to the grid-connected Startup Transformer upon a generating unit trip, and will also serve to resolve present marginal bus voltage issues. For purposes of the grid studies, the generator breakers are considered to be in place and operable at the time of startup of the generating units at their increased levels of output.

A generator step-up transformer will require the initial energization to occur from the transmission grid. Prior to initial energization, the Interconnection Customer must permanently install mitigation equipment (e.g., pre-insertion resistors on the high-side transformer circuit breaker) or commission a technical study of the initial energization event to ensure that the initial energization of the transformer will not result in any unacceptable impact to ATC or interconnected customers.

2.4.4 Unit Black Start and ATC Black Start Plan Participation Generating units interconnecting with the ATCLLC transmission system must report black start requirements to ATCLLC. Additionally, the customer and ATCLLC must discuss the unit's participation in the ATCLLC system black start plan.

3.1.1 Power Factor Capability and Voltage Requirements Power Factor Capability The G83314-J02213 customer has submitted a generating facility design capable of maintaining power delivery at continuous rated power output at the POI (Point of Interconnection) at all power factors over 0.95 leading (when a facility is consuming reactive power from the transmission system) to 0.94 lagging (when a facility is supplying reactive power to the transmission system). For the steady-state scenarios examined, study results indicate that satisfactory system performance is achieved by supplying a range of -21 1.3 to 233.4 Mvars (gross) to the system.

Plant Specific Voltage Requirements The Point Beach Nuclear Plant has specific 345 kV voltage range requirements. The preferred range is 352 kV (1.020 pu) to 354 kV (1.026 pu), the normal range is 351 kV (1.017 pu) to 358 kV (1.037 pu) and the maximum permissible is 348.5 kV (1.010 pu) to 362 kV (1.049 pu). A new high voltage limit of 360 kV has been proposed by the plant and incorporated into this study.

Any voltage outside the maximum permissible range is a voltage limitation as described in the plant technical specifications.

3.1.2 Results of Intact System and Single Contingencies (N-1) 3.1.2.1 Base Case Analyses With the proposed solution modeled, the analysis was conducted using the cases developed based upon the 2013 Summer Peak (100% load conditions) and Off-Peak (roughly 70% load conditions) MIS0 DPP Cycle 2 models. All wind generation including competing wind generation was dispatched at 20% of nameplate capacity for summer peak load conditions and 100% for summer off-peak conditions. For the summer off-peak model, the Fox Energy generating units and one of the two Sheboygan Energy units were out of service. The remaining Sheboygan Energy unit was on-line at 90 MW in the 2013 Summer Off-Peak model.

This study identified two transmission element steady-state thermal violations as injection limits due to G83314-J02213 for NERC Category B (N-1) events for the 201 3 Summer Off-Peak model and one injection limit was identified for NERC Category B (N-1) events for the 2013 Summer Peak model. The injection limits are Point Beach Bus 1-New North 345 kV line (Llll east). The line is overloaded with the outage of Point Beach Bus 2-New North 345 kV line (L121 east). Distribution factor is American Transmission Company Page 28 of 132 10/2/2009

New East-Cedarsauk 345 kV line (796L41 south). The line is overloaded with the outage of new East-Granville 345 kV line. Distribution factor is not available because the contingency pair is created by the proposed new East substation and it does not exist in the base model prior to G83314-J02213.

A summary of the thermal violations due to G83314-J02213 is presented in Tables A. 1 and A.2 in Appendix A.

Ll 1 1, Point Beach Bus 1 -(New North)-Sheboygan Energy Center 345 kV line, will be uprated as an independent economic benefit project (1095 MVA SE with ATC Project PRO3208 assumed in-service), required ratings are given but these are lower than those required for ATC Project PR03208.

The maximum allowable output without Network Upgrades for injection limits is presented in Table A.13 in Appendix A. As shown in this table, the maximum real power output for injection limits without any system upgrades is 0 MW for all conditions studied.

Voltage analysis shows that no Transmission System voltage limits will be violated as a result of the interconnection of G83314-J02213 (see Tables A.3 and A.4 in Appendix A).

3.1.3 Results of Double Contingencies (N-1-1) 3.1.3.1 NERC Category C.3 Contingencies (N-1-1)

Thermal and voltage constraints were evaluated for NERC Category C events (N-1-1 contingencies) in the electrical proximity of G83314-502213 for the 2013 Summer Peak and Off-Peak models with the proposed solution in service. The double contingency constraints are not required to be resolved for the generator to attain either Energy Resource or Network Resource Interconnection Service status. The purpose of the N-1-1 analysis is to reveal potential violations under prior outage conditions.

Thermal violations under a selected number of N-1-1 contingencies were evaluated using AC analysis. The distinct thermal violations identified from the 2013 Summer Peak and Off-Peak load condition models used in the study are listed in Table A.7 and A.8 in Appendix A.

The results of this analysis are supplied for information only since no operating restrictions will be created for thermal N-1-1 limits. In the day-ahead and real-time market, MIS0 will utilize a binding constraint procedure to mitigate transmission system overloads. This process may result in curtailment of generation and could affect G83314-J02213 for the contingencies noted in this N 1 analysis.

3.1.3.2 NERC Category C. 5 Contingencies American Transmission Company Page 29 of 132

G83314-502213 ISIS Report The Transmission System local to the selected Point of Interconnection was reviewed for facilities that could be defined as double contingencies that correspond to NERC Category C.5 events (i.e. two circuits on shared tower). Table 3.1 shows all NERC Category C.5 events that were considered local and potentially limiting the proposed interconnection. Three overloads were found for the Category C.5 events studied. Two of them are not considered as a problem due to G83314-J02213:

Lau Rd-Elkhart Lake 138 kV line. Approximately 2.9% of the increased generation flowing on this line with New East-Cedarsauk and Holland-Charter Industrial-Saukville 138 kV line which is relatively minor impact and below the 5% distribution factor cutoff in the MIS0 BPM. Therefore, it is not considered as a problem due to G83314-J02213. In addition, the thermal overload can be mitigated by generation redispatch in the local area.

Elkhart Lake-Saukville 138 kV line. Approximately 0.5% of the increased generation flowing on this line with New East-Cedarsauk and Holland-Charter Industrial-Saukville 138 kV line which is relatively minor impact and below the 5% distribution factor cutoff.

Therefore, it is not considered as a problem due to G83314-J02213. In addition, the thermal overload can be mitigated by generation redispatch in the local area.

New East-Cedarsauk 345 kV line (796L41 south). The line is overloaded with the outage of Cypress-Arcadian 345 kV line and Germantown-Maple-Saukville 138 kV line.

Distribution factor is not available because it is a new line created by the new East s~~bstation.

As discussed in Section 3.1.2.1, the new East-Cedarsauk 345 kV line will be uprated to 960 MVA SE, which is higher than the required rating shown in Table A.9 as one of the required Network Upgrades (see Table 1.2.a).

The Category C.5 results are shown in Tables A.9 and A.10 in Appendix A.

1. NERC Category C.5 events studied are limited to the simultaneous outage of any two stability analysis in this study was done for the following grid disturbance scenarios:

Three-phase fault cleared in primary time with an otherwise intact system (NERC Cat. B);

Single line-to-ground fault on both circuits of a double circuit structure with an otherwise intact system (NERC Cat. C);

3. Single line-to-ground fault on a bus with an otherwise intact system (NERC Cat. C);

4. Three-phase fault cleared in primary clearing time with a prior outage of any other transmission element (NERC Cat C); and

5. Three-phase fault cleared in delayed clearing time (e.g., breaker failure condition or zone 2 trip due to communication-based protection system failure) with an otherwise intact system (NERC Cat D).

In general, for any grid disturbance, the proposed generation's dynamic response must not degrade the system stability performance. Recent stability analysis of the area near Point Beach found no stability problems for (a) three-phase fault cleared in primary time with an otherwise intact system, (b) single line-to-ground fault on both circuits of a double circuit structure with an otherwise intact system, and (c) three-phase fault cleared in delayed clearing time with an otherwise intact system. In addition, that analysis found no stability problems for three-phase faults cleared in primary clearing time under prior outage conditions with proposed Power System Stabilizers (PSS) in-service. The only existing issue is a potential stability problem with a fault on 345-kV line Q-303 (Point Beach to Kewaunee) under the prior outage condition of 345-kV line R-304 (Kewaunee to North Appleton). However, this issue is addressed by the existing operating guide, which requires Kewaunee generation to be reduced to 382 MW (net) for thermal reasons.

For the G833lJ022 and G834lJ023 analysis, it is assumed that the Power System Stabilizers are in-service for all simulations.

For existing system components, actual existing breaker clearing times were simulated.

Wherever clearing times faster than existing settings are required, a notation is made. For new system components, the clearing times used in this study are as follows:

Primary Clearing (Local):

3.5 cycles; Delayed Clearing (Local Breaker Failure):

9.0 cycles; Primary Clearing (Remote End):

4.5 cycles American Transmission Company Page 3 1 of 132

G83314-J02213 ISIS Report A planning margin of 1.O cycle is required between any studied (simulatedltested) clearing time and the maximum expected clearing time of the system protection equipment (i.e. relay and circuit breaker operation). This 1.0 cycle is added to the local primary clearing time for primary clearing simulations and the local breaker failure time for breaker failure simulations. If a fault is cleared using Independent Pole Operation (IPO) breakers, it is assumed that only one phase of the breaker will fail, so that after the primary clearing time, a three phase to ground fault will become a single line-to-ground fault until it is cleared by the breaker failure relaying. No margin is added to the primary clearing times during breaker failure simulations.

In addition to examining angular stability of the generation, voltage recovery at Point Beach was also monitored to ensure acceptable performance under Point Beach's requirements. These requirements for 345 kV and 19 kV voltages are listed in Table 2.4.2. If no stability issue was identified with G83314-J02213 and without the proposed solution, no additional stability analysis with the proposed solution was performed since the proposed solution improves stability response by tying together critical transmission elements and providing an additional 345 kV line in parallel with the existing 345 kV lines (portion of L1 1 1, L121 and L-SEC3 I).

Results of the stability analysis are summarized in Appendix C.

3.2.1 Results of Primary Clearing of Three-Phase Faults under Intact System Conditions The 13 faults listed in Table 3.2.1 were simulated as 3-phase faults cleared in primary time under intact system conditions. No stability problems were identified. These results are summarized in Table C. 1 in Appendix C.

Table 3.2.1 - Simulated Single Circuit 3-Phase Faults Cleared in Primary Time 3.2.2 Results of Primary Clearing SLG Faults on Two Circuits of a Multiple Circuit Lines The transmission system near Point Beach contains eight double circuit lines of concern (Table 3.2.2). Three phase faults were simulated on both ends of the double circuit, for a total of sixteen simulated events, to simplify the simulations. If a generator is not stabe for the three phase fault, a single line to ground fault would then be studied. No stability problems were identified. These results are summarized in Table C.2 in Appendix C.

G83314-502213 ISIS Report Two events with generation instability were found for prior outage scenarios (Table C.3 in Appendix C), which are Fault on L121 (Point Beach-Forest Junction) under the outage of Point Beach 345 kV breaker 2-3 Fault on R-304 (North Appleton-Kewaunee) under the outage of 6832 (Fox River-North Appleton) followed by a fault on R-304 (Kewaunee-North Appleton)

Both prior outage stability problems were not found with the addition of the proposed solution.

Until completion of the proposed solution, the following operating restrictions already documented in the G83314-J02213 Interim Operation Re-study Report are required under the prior outage conditions to eliminate the stability problems:

G2 at 600 MW (gross) under prior outage condition of 6832 (North Appleton-Fox River 345 kV line)

Gl at 580 MW (gross) under prior outage condition of Point Beach Bus Tie 2-3 The existing stability problems, an R-304 fault with 4-303 out of service or a 4-303 fault with R-304 out of service, can be eliminated by reducing Kewaunee generation. Based on the future Kewaunee operating restrictions associated with the planned Kewaunee Bus Reconfiguration Project (see Figure l.l), angular stability will be maintained. This is an existing limitation that will not be made better or worse by the addition of G83314-J02213 and their associated Network Upgrades.

Table C.12 presents result for a three phase fault under the worst critical prior outage condition at the new East Switching Station (Fix 2 in Appendix H, part of the proposed solution), which is assumed to be a fault on the East-Cedarsauk 345 kV line under the outage of East-Granville 345 kV line. This is assumed to be the worst prior outage event because the outage of the East-Granville 345 kV line results in the highest flow on the 345 kV lines out of the new East substation, particularly on the East-Cedarsauk 345 kV line. The simulation provides the required clearing times for the new switching station and did not identify any stability problems that cannot be mitigated by the installation of 2 cycle 345 kV circuit breakers and high-speed relaying. Additional simulation is not performed with the proposed solution since stability response will only improve.

3.2.4 Results of Three-Phase Fault Delayed Clearing under Intact System Conditions Delayed (breaker failure) 3-phase fault clearing under otherwise intact system was simulated for the events listed in Table 3.2.4.

No stability problems were identified with the interim upgrades described in the G83314-J02213 Interim Operation Re-study Report which include relay upgrades at Point Beach, breaker replacement at North Appleton and a breaker addition at Point Beach.

Tables C.6 and C.8 present results for single-line-to-ground (intact system with delayed clearing) and three phase (primary clearing under N-1 conditions) GSU faults. Simulating these faults with existing clearing times did not result in any generators going unstable. Therefore, there are no upgrades necessary due to these faults.

Without the proposed solution, simulating these faults with existing clearing times (i.e. 5.1 cycles) resulted in generators going unstable for various different outages for TlX03 faults and for T2X03 faults. However, the stability problems were not found with the addition of the proposed solution. Until the proposed solution in place, generator stability can be maintained for all N-1 conditions if T1X03 clearing time is reduced to 4.0 cycles and T2X03 clearing time is reduced to 4.0 cycles.

G83314-J02213 ISIS Report 3.2.6 Unit Outage Unit outages were simulated for the events listed in Table 3.2.5. As shown in Table C.10 in Appendix C, no stability problems were found for the three interim scenarios, and no cascading failure was identified for the loss of these units.

Table 3.2.5 - Unit Otrtage 3.2.7 Stability Results Summary The improvements in system stability required for G83314-502213 are provided by the proposed solution described in this report. It eliminates all of the stability problems created by G83314-502213. In addition, the proposed solution allows the wider MVAR operating range at Point Beach and Kewaunee as described in Appendix H. More details can be found in Appendix H which discusses alternatives to the proposed solution.

3.3 Short-Circuit & Breaker Duty Analysis Results Although this project is to increase generation at an existing generator, the effect of the proposed solution, changes in Point Beach generator impedance and GSU impedance will affect system short circuit currents.

Fault currents with and without contribution from G83314-502213 for three-phase and single line-to-ground faults are given in Table D.l in Appendix D. The corresponding Thevenin equivalent impedances are given in Table D.2.

The minimum short circuit current at the G83314-502213 POI bus occurs when Q-303 (Point Beach-Kewanee), Point Beach GI and G2 are not in service. The three-phase and single line-to-ground fault currents for this weak source condition are also given in Table D. 1.

Short circuit current analysis with the revised generator and GSU impedances as well as the proposed solution showed that, for circuit breakers impacted by more than 1% (Table D.3), none of these breakers were over-dutied due to the addition of G83314-502213 and associated upgrades. Therefore, no circuit breaker replacements due to increased fault currents are needed for G83314-502213 generator interconnection requests.

Although an over-dutied breaker is found at the low side of Edgewater T22, it is an existing problem since it is already over-dutied prior to G83314-J02213. The over-dutied breaker will be evaluated and replaced by ATC Asset Maintenance.

3.4 Deliverability Analysis Results American Transmission Company Page 36 of 132

G83314-502213 ISIS Report Deliverability analysis was performed by MIS0 for these requests. No additional upgrades beyond those discussed in the previous sections were identified to achieve Network Resource Interconnection Service (NRIS).

NRIS certification does not guarantee a resource to serve a specific load or to operate during any particular set of operating circumstances. Additionally, certification of deliverability makes no guarantee as to price of available resources. Congestion charges may, in fact, be extremely high.

G83314-502213 ISIS Report Appendix F: Study Criteria American Transmission Company Page 72 of 132

G83314-502213 ISIS Report Study Criteria F. 1 Contingencies For stability analysis, a set of branches in the vicinity of the generatorlpower plant of concern is selected as contingencies, based on engineering judgment. Fault analysis is performed for the following six categories of contingency conditions:

1. Three-phase fault cleared in primary time with an otherwise intact system.

2. Three-phase fault cleared in delayed clearing time (i.e. breaker failure conditions) with an otherwise intact system.

3. Three-phase fault cleared in primary clearing time with a pre-existing outage of any other transmission element.

4. Single Line Ground (SLG) bus section fault cleared in primary clearing time with an otherwise intact system.

5. SLG internal breaker fault cleared in primary clearing time with an otherwise intact system.

6. SLG fault of double circuits on common tower cleared in primary time with an otherwise intact system.

For power flow analysis, contingencies include:

1. N-1 contingencies - all lines and transformers operated at 69kV and above in the following control areaslzones: ATC Planning Zones 1-5 and ties to those zones and all branches of voltage level 69kV and above in the Dairyland Power Cooperative, Northern States Power Control Area, Commonwealth Edison, and Alliant Energy West control areas.

2. Selected N-2 and multiple contingencies that ATCLLC has determined to be significant.

F.2 Monitored Elements F.2.1 Intact System, N-1, N-2 and Special Multiple Contingency Evaluation Using Linear Transfer Analysis Methods All load carrying elements operated at 69kV and above in the following control areaslzones were studied: ATCLLC Planning Zones 1-5 and ties to those zones, and all branches of voltage level 69kV and above in the Dairyland Power Cooperative, Northern States Power Control Area, Commonwealth Edison, and Alliant Energy West control areas.

A Transmission Reliability Margin (TRM) of 5% must be applied to the MVA ratings of each monitored ATCLLC element. Violations reported will be based upon the adjusted MVA rating.

American Transmission Company Page 73 of 132

G83314-502213 ISIS Report F.3 Thermal Loading Criteria F. 3.1 Injection Violations Generation injection violations include: 1) thermal violations of the transmission elements that connect the Generator to the rest of the transmission network (outlet congestion); 2) thermal violations of the transmission elements that have a transfer distribution factor (TDF) 2 5% for NERC Category A (system intact) conditions and TDF 2 20% for NERC Category B contingencies anywhere in the studied system in relation to real power injected at the Point of Interconnection (POI) when delivered to all of MISO; or 3) thermal violations created by the loss of a transmission element connected to the generator interconnection substation.

F.3.2 Operating Restriction Calculation Allowable Output = Equipment Rating - [Line Flow - (Generation Output

TDF)]

TDF F.4 Steady State Under Voltage Criteria F.4.1 Intact System, N-1 and Special Mzrltiple Contingency Evaluation Using ACCC Under intact system conditions, the voltage magnitude of all transmission system buses with a decrease of 0.01 per unit due to the Generator must not be lower than 0.95 per unit. Under contingency conditions, the voltage magnitude of all transmission system buses with a decrease of 0.01 per unit, due to the Generator, must not be lower than 0.90 per unit.

F. 4.2 N-2 Contingency Evaluation Power flow solutions must converge for a selected number of N-2 contingencies in the electrical proximity of the studied Generator. Divergence of a power flow solution indicates potential voltage collapse. A "fix" must be identified for any non-converging power flow simulation and may include generator operating restrictions. [Note: Non-convergence may be due to solution settings such as switched shunt operation andlor LTC action.]

F.5 Angular Stabiliw Criteria Critical Clearing Time (CCT) is a period relative to the start of a fault, within which all generators in the system remain stable (synchronized). CCT is obtained from simulation.

Maximum Expected Clearing Time (MECT) determines a period of time that is needed to clear a fault using the existing system facilities. MECT is dictated by the existing system facilities. In any contingency, if the computed CCT is less than the MECT plus a margin determined by ATC (1.0 cycle for studies using estimated generator data and 0.5 cycles for studies using confirmed generator data), it is considered an unstable situation and is unacceptable. Otherwise, it is considered acceptable transient stability performance.

American Transmission Company Page 74 of 132

G83314-502213 ISIS Report Longer time-domain simulations must be performed on faults cleared at the CCT to examine dynamic stability. Simulations will typically cover 20 seconds of system dynamics and machine angle oscillations must meet the damping criteria in the ATC Planning Criteria.

Note that ATC stability criteria and NERC stability criteria differ on the study assumptions used for breaker failure analysis. ATC study criterion models breaker failure by modeling a three-phase fault during the primary time, reduced to SLG fault if the failed breaker is an Independent Pole Operated (IPO) breaker during delayed clearing and cleared at the end of the delayed clearing time. On the other hand, NERC study criterion assumes a single line-to-ground fault for the entire breaker failure analysis. Hence, the CCT computed from ATC stability criteria is always less than or equal to the value computed using the NERC study criteria. This report assumes ATC stability criteria unless otherwise stated.

The time-domain simulations must also be reviewed for compliance with the transient and dynamic voltage standards in the ATC Planning Criteria. Voltages of all transmission system buses must recover to be at least 70% of the nominal system voltages immediately after fault removal and 80% of the nominal system voltages in 2.0 second after fault removal.

G83314-502213 ISIS Report Appendix 6: Typical Planning Level Cost Estimates American Transmission Company Page 76 of 132

G83314-502213 ISIS Report Typical Transmission Line and Substation Capital Costs -March 16,2006 It should be noted that the costs listed are merely representative for projects within each category. Actual project costs can vary, in some cases dramatically, based on the scope, location and particular design of the project. Capital costs include material, labor, licensing, design, land acquisition, environmental mitigation fees if applicable and project close-out. While some projects require additional costs of generator redispatch during construction outages, such costs are very project specific and have not been included in the estimates below.

Cost estimates for 345kV, 138kV, 115kV, 69kV T-Lines and Substations:

e New transmission line cost estimates include new structures, foundations, insulators, hardware, conductor, and easements shown in dollars per mile. No distribution underbuild costs are included.

0 Rebuilt transmission line cost estimates include 100% new structures, foundations, insulators, hardware, and conductor on existing ROWIeasements shown in dollars per mile. No distribution underbuild costs are included.

a Routing an existing transmission line into a new substation typically requires two terminals, particularly at 100 kV and above.

0 New substation cost estimate includes purchase and prepare site, control house, switches, bus, structures, breakers, and protection shown in dollars per terminals, transformers, and breakers at each voltage.

0 Installing a new transformer in a substation requires two terminals, one at the higher voltage and one at the lower voltage. Thus, a new 345-138 kV substation that incorporates an existing 345 kV line and two 138 kV transmission lines, all of which exist near the new substation site, would require three 345 kV terminals and five 138 kV terminals. Two spare terminals that include disconnect switches and bus, but no breaker, for each voltage, should be provided for future growth.

Transformer costs are shown for typical transformer sizes in each class, 500 MVA, 34511 38 kV, and 34511 15 kV; 100 MVA, 138169 kV and 115169 kV.

G83314-J02213 ISIS Report Appendix H: Alternatives Considered American Transmission Company Page 79 of 132

G83314-502213 ISIS Report The transmission system near Point Beach has five large generating stations (Point Beach, Kewaunee, Fox River, Sheboygan Energy Center, and Cypress) with a total generating capability of approximately 3000 MW and only four 345 kV lines connecting this generation to the rest of the system.

Three additional wind generation projects with a total rated generation of approximately 350 MW and queue positions below G83314-502213 (G590, G611, and G773) are located on the Fox Valley 138 kV system near Forest Junction. These three projects were not modeled in the G833-4 study stability analysis because of their location on the 138 kV system, but they were modeled in the study's thermal analysis. This combination of high generation and relatively few transmission outlets produces stability issues with the existing system strength and fault clearing times, in particular at Kewaunee and North Appleton which have slower breakers and longer clearing times than other area busses.

As documented in the G83314-502213 Interim Operation Re-study Report, the possible unit restrictions andor interim system upgrades are identified and planned to accommodate the G83314-J02213 during the interim periods. After implementation of the upgrades needed for "interim" operation, there are several issues that must be addressed to ensure that the Point Beach generation increase is reliable beyond temporary operation. The issues are:

(1) Generator instability due to the isolation of Point Beach Generator 1 on L111 (Point Beach-Sheboygan) which occurs when Point Beach 345 kV breaker 2-3 is out of service and L121 (Point Beach-Forest Junction 345 kV) trips, (2) Generator instability due to the outage of 6832 (Fox River-North Appleton) followed by a fault on R-304 (Kewaunee-North Appleton),

(3) Most significantly, limitations on Point Beach and Kewaunee generating unit reactive power output at all hours. Generator instability was identified for fault conditions when Point Beach and Kewaunee units produce relatively small reactive power output (over-excitation) or absorbs reactive power from transmission system (under-excitation).

Reactive power output from a synchronous machine has an impact on the transient stability of the unit. Typically, the lower the excitation on a generating unit, the unit tends to be less stable under a fault condition. The results of the interim operation study indicate that a certain level of reactive power output (over-excitation) needs to be maintained to ensure generation stability in anticipation of critical fault conditions. The units may not be allowed to reduce their MVAR outputs, reducing their effectiveness in controlling system voltage As described in the Interim Operation Re-study Report, for temporary operation, Issue (1) and (2) should be mitigated by reducing generation at Point Beach to 580 MW (G1 gross) and 600 MW (G2 gross) respectively, and Issue (3) should be mitigated by maintaining MVAR output from Point Beach and Kewaunee to a certain level through the use of Minimum Excitation Limiter settings. Issue (I) may be addressed by a long term solution such as reconfiguring the existing Point Beach substation such that Point Beach Unit #I cannot be isolated on 345-kV line Ll 1 1. However, a more robust long term solution such as a new 345 kV line andor substation will be needed to address Issue (2) and Issue (3). Issues (2) and (3) can not be solved by reconfiguring Point Beach such as ring bus configuration because the issues are primarily due to the limited number of 345-kV outlets out of Fox Valley area for the amount of generation located in this area.

American Transmission Company Page 80 of 132

G833/4-502213 ISIS Report As shown in Appendix H.l, various options are being studied to identifl a Network Upgrade that:

Addresses the generation instability issues under prior outage conditions, Provides a wider operating envelope for the local transmission system and the interconnected generators by permitting generating unit operation at unity or under-excited conditions Provides better maintenance and operations flexibility during planned or unplanned transmission outage conditions by tying together critical transmission elements in strategic locations and, possibly, providing an additional transmission outlet, and Relieves loadings under intact and contingency conditions on the existing 138 kV and 345 kV lines running from Fox Valley area to the south by providing an additional transmission outlet.

Appendix H.l presents a description of the various options considered as well as geographic representations of the various options.

To screen and select options for hrther consideration, the dynamic stability study was performed. The Power System Stabilizer (PSS) models supplied by the customer for both units

1 and #2 were assumed in-service. Scenarios with each solution option were built from the high and low generation cases used for the dynamic stability study for the Interim Operation Re-study. The high generation scenario consists of all generation on-line in the Point Beach area, which primarily stresses the system for prior transmission outage conditions due to the limited number of 345-kV outlets from this area. The low generation scenario is similar to the high generation scenario except the Fox Energy and Sheboygan Energy gas-fired power plants are off-line, which primarily stresses the system for breaker failure conditions due to the lower system inertia.

As shown in Appendix H.1 and Appendix H.2, thirteen different options were evaluated for transient stability performance by applying the critical faults identified in the Interim Operation Re-study listed under the period with completion of the G833/4 and.7022/3 requests and completion of the Kewaunee bus reconfiguration project. The critical faults are:

Fault on L l l l (Point Beach-Sheboygan Energy Center) at Point Beach with breaker failure Fault on L151 (Point Beach-Fox River) at Point Beach with breaker failure Fault on Q-303 (Point Beach-Kewaunee) at Point Beach with breaker failure. The 4-303 breaker failure may be able to be disregarded if a breaker is added in series with the existing Q-303 breaker at Point Beach as described in the interim operation study report.

Fault on R-304 (Kewaunee-North Appleton) at Kewaunee with breaker failure Fault on R-304 (Kewaunee-North Appleton) at Kewaunee with prior outage of 6832 (North Appleton-Fox River)

Fault on L121 (Point Beach-Forest Junction) at Point Beach with prior outage of Point Beach 345 kV bus tie 2-3 Two types of stability analyses were performed to screen and measure the robustness of each option. As shown in Section H.2.1 of Appendix H.2, the maximum critical clearing time was identified under the critical faults for each option. For this specific study, Point Beach and Kewaunee 345 kV voltage schedule was set to 352 kV to maintain Point Beach 345-kV bus American Transmission Company Page 81 of 132 10/2/2009

G83314-J02213 ISIS Report voltage at the low end of the preferred voltage range and set MVAR output from Kewaunee and Point Beach to typical historical levels. The maximum critical clearing time is the slowest fault clearing time for which no units will lose synchronism. Thus, the longer clearing time for an option represents a more robust system solution.

The second type of analysis is shown in Section H.2.2 of Appendix H.2. This analysis examined the minimum allowable MVAR output from the Point Beach and Kewaunee units while maintaining synchronism for the critical faults by varying the voltage schedule of these generators. This analysis should not be interpreted as permitting or requiring a change in voltage schedule to the values noted in the table. Rather, varying the voltage schedule is simply a method for varying the excitation on the unit. This analysis identifies the options that allow generating unit operation at unity or leading (i.e. under-excited) power factor, or at least provide a foundation to achieve the wider operating envelop through additional transmission reinforcement in the area that may be needed in the future.

Among the thirteen options studied, four options were identified as alternatives due to their dynamic stability performance. These options are described more fully in Section H.3.1 of Appendix H.3 and are summarized as:

1. Fix 2 (new "East" 345 kV switching station),

2. Fix 5 (new "East" and new "North" 345 kV switching stations with a new 345 kV line, -32 miles),

3. Fix 1 1 (new "East" 34511 38 kV substation and new "North" 345 kV switching substation with conversion of existing 138 kV line to 345 kV, -48 miles) and

4. Fix 13 (new "East" 345 kV switching station and approximately 41 miles of new double circuit 3451138 kV lines from Forest Junction to the "East" substation).

These options were selected because they address stability issues adequately, provide a wider operating range (except Fix 2) of MVAR output from Point Beach and Kewaunee, unload parallel facilities and provide an alternate route since the Certificate of Public Convenience and Necessity (CPCN) process at the Public Service Commission of Wisconsin (PSCW) requires both route and system alternatives. Based on the further analysis, Fix 11 is selected as the proposed solution because it:

=

Achieves the widest operating envelop for the local transmission system and the interconnected generators by permitting generating unit operation to unity or under-excited conditions.

Addresses the transient stability issues with certain level of MVAR output maintained from Point Beach and Kewaunee.

Achieves better maintenance and operations flexibility during planned or unplanned transmission outage conditions by tying together critical transmission elements in strategic locations and providing an additional transmission outlet.

Unloads the existing 138 kV and 345 kV lines running from Fox Valley area to the south under intact and contingency conditions by providing an additional transmission outlet. As a benefit, the proposed solution (Fix 11) would also help Wisconsin to accommodate potential future wind development in the area.

Fix 2 is a common facility required for Fix 5, Fix 11 and Fix 13. However, Fix 2 does not immediately allow wider MVAR operating range unless additional transmission reinforcement shown in Fix 5, 11 and 13 are combined and implemented with Fix 2.

American Transmission Company Page 82 of 132 10/2/2009

G83314-502213 ISIS Report Although Fix 5 and Fix 13 immediately allow wider MVAR operating range, they are not better than Fix 11 (see Appendix H.3).

Fix I1 (roughly $129 million) would require relatively less construction cost than Fix 5 (roughly $182.3 million) and Fix 13 (roughly $219.3 million). As noted in Table 1.2, the cost of Fix 11 may increase depending on the condition of the existing double circuit 3451138 kV structures (L111, portion of L-SEC3 1, 971K5 1 and portion of HOLG2 1). More detailed analysis will be performed during the Facilities Study to determine the condition of the existing structures.

Compared to Fix 1 1, significant challenge is expected for Fix 5 and Fix 13 primarily due to relatively extensive new right-of-way for new 345 kV and (or) 138 kV lines.

Options rejected from further consideration are Fix 1 (new West 345 kV switching station): it does not address the stability issue under prior outage of Point Beach bus tie 2-3. Generally, it does not provide better stability performance than Fix 2 (new East 345 kV switching station).

Fix 1 plus Fix 2 (new West and East 345 kV switching stations): constructing East and West 345 kV switching stations together does not significantly improve stability response.

Fix 3 (new West 345 kV switching station and a new 345 kV line from Forest Junction to West): This option also requires new 345 kV line (-42 miles) from Forest Junction to new West switching station. It does not address the stability issue under prior outage of Point Beach bus tie 2-3. In addition, this does not provide any significant improvement than new East 345 kV switching station.

Fix 6 (a new second 345 kV line from North Appleton to Fox River): This option requires constructing a new second 345 kV line (-9.8 miles) from North Appleton to Fox River. It does not address the stability issue under prior outage of Point Beach bus tie 2-3. It provides better stability response only under prior outage of 6832.

Fix 7 (new East 345 kV substation and new North 345 kV switching station and conversion of 971K5 1 and portion of existing 138 kV line HOLG21 to 345 kV): This option requires converting approximately 48 miles of existing 138 kV line to 345 kV in addition to building a new East and North 345 kV stations. It also requires constructing new 138 kV lines (- 16 miles) to continue serving the existing 138 kV substations and installing a new 3451138 kV transformer at new East Switching Station. This option provides significant improvement in stability response. However, it is not selected for hrther analysis since this option does not provide better stability performance than Fix 11 (Fix 7 plus 345 kV line L121, which is a Point Beach outlet, looped into North switching station) for a fault on L1 1 1 with breaker failure at Point Beach.

Fix 8 (Fix 5 plus 3451138 kV transformer at North Substation, loop 971K51 into the North 138 kV substation): In general, this option does not provide significantly better stability response than Fix 5 (new North and East 345 kV line, -32 miles) which is selected for further analysis. It appears that installing a new 3451138 kV transformer at North substation and looping the existing line 971K51 does not provide significant benefit from a stability perspective.

Fix 9 (Fix 8 plus converting Forest Junction-North 138 kV line to 345 kV): In addition to implementing Fix 8, this option also requires converting Forest Junction-North 138 kV American Transmission Company Page 83 of 132 10/2/2009

G83314-502213 ISIS Report line (-16 miles) to 345 kV. For similar reason described for Fix 8, it is not selected for fbrther analysis.

Fix 10 (new North switching station): This option requires constructing only the North 345 kV switching station. It does not address the stability issue under prior outage of 6832. In general, it does not perform better than Fix 2 from a stability perspective.

Fix 14 (Fix 7 without looping 796L41 (Edgewater-Cedarsauk 345kV) into new East Switching Station): This option was tested to understand the impact of looping 796L41 into the new East Switching Station. No significant stability impact was identified due to 796L41 looped into the new East Switching Station. However, looping 796L41 into new East Switching Station is preferred primarily because it will reduce the exposure to the outage of the existing Edgewater-Cedarsauk 345 kV line (-33.29 miles).

G83314-J02213 ISIS Report Minimum Excitation Limits (MELs) at Point Beach and Kewaunee with Proposed Solution Based on the study results in Section H.3.2 of Appendix H.3, the minimum excitation limit study results with the proposed solution (Fix 1 1) is tabulated in Table I. 1. With all Network Upgrades of G83314-J02213 in-service and based on the study results shown in Table I. 1 in this ISIS report, the Point Beach and Kewaunee units would need to maintain the following minimum excitation levels to ensure synchronism of these and nearby generators :

Post completion of the Proposed Solution and the Kewaunee bus reconfiguration proiect (With both Point Beach Units #I and #2 upgraded) o Point Beach GI and G2: 12 MVAR or higher per unit (gross) o Kewaunee GI: -19 MVAR or higher (gross)

Table 1.1 proves that installing a new 4-303 breaker in series with the existing breaker which is one of the G83314-502213 "Interim" Network Upgrades is also beneficial for long-term system operation because Q-303 breaker failure appears to the most restrictive contingency causing less improvement in MELs. This is same for alternatives Fix 5 and Fix 13.
