Information
University Campus A microgrid is located in Texas and is connected to the local utility through four 69kV feeder. The utility bus voltage level is reduced to 12kV through four step-down transformers, namely T1 through T4. The microgrid also contains a 4.16kV portion in bus B15, stepped down from 12kV to 4.16kV through transformers T5, and T6. The university campus microgrid is powered by two combustion turbo generators (CTs) and four steam turbo generators (STs). The two oldest steam turbine generation units rarely operate, typically online for a few days a year in extreme load conditions. For that reason, the model contains two CTs and two STs, producing power at 12kV each. The maximum amount of power that the combined generation units can produce is approximately 127MW.
