Run Types
As of the version 2 series of NEMforecast, you can now chose between two different run types when graphing STPASA run data. STPASA produces two sets of results for determining low reserve conditions (LRC). These are denoted as RELIABILITY_LRC and OUTAGE_LRC in the STPASA data.
| Run Type | NEMMCO Definition |
|---|---|
| RELIABILITY_LRC | These results consider supply adequacy against a 10% poe demand forecast and only those constraints reflecting network capability with all plants assumed to be available for service. The RELIABILITY_LRC results are those that serve as a trigger for NEMMCO to address forecast reserve shortfalls. |
| OUTAGE_LRC | These results consider supply adequacy against a 50% poe demand forecast and include network constraints reflecting expected network outage conditions. |
