13th ANNUAL CAPACITY TEST - 2024

17th May 2024, from 09:00 hrs. to 15:00 hrs.

Target Value for ACT 2024

This test aims to demonstrate the Annual

Power Purchase Capacity Test (ACT) per PPA Article VIII, Section
Agreement: 8.4, following the Commercial Operation Date.
During each Demonstration Period, the ACT will
Schedule-1 be conducted to determine the Tested Capacity
Annex- 6 of the Complex. The Net Power Output will be
measured at the interconnection point (Tariff
Meter) and corrected to the following reference
conditions:
a) Ambient Air Temperature: 27°C
b) Relative Humidity: 52%
c) Barometric Pressure: 1.0047 bar

Target Value to be
14th Year achieved:
Agreement of 168.211 MW
PPA
The test will be considered successful if, after
correcting for the reference conditions—
Ambient Air Temperature (27°C), Relative
Humidity (52%), and Barometric Pressure
(1.0047 bar)—the Net Output matches the
criteria specified in the attached 'Output
Degradation Factor' table. Either party may
reject the test within 24 hours, per PPA Section
8.4(e)
Executive Summary – ACT 2024
Average Net Output (of 6 hrs. for ACT)
at:
Main Meter – 152.153 MW
Backup Meter – 152.387 MW
Ambient Conditions:
Avg Temperature – 43.54 oC
Avg Pressure – 999.67 mbar
Avg Humidity – 18.01 %
Corrected Net Output – 168.568 MW
@ Reference Conditions
The measured average Net Power Output will be corrected
with reference operating conditions according to correction
curves, the corrected Net Power Output will be determined
as follows:
PC=PM / (OCF)
PC Corrected Net Power Output
PM Measured Net Power Output
OCF = yt * yp * yh
yt Corrected Ambient Temperature
yp Corrected Ambient Pressure
yh Corrected Ambient Humidity
The average value of six (6) hours of measured Net Power
Output will be corrected and taken as the final
determination of ACT value.
Note: The interpolation formula will determine the
correction factor for the relative humidity.

Total Export (MWh) = (Line-1 Export @ 10:00 hrs. – Line-1 Export @ 09:00 hrs.) +

At 1000 hrs.:
Total Export = (814,512.24 - 814,354.24) + (981,679.24 - 981,678.56 ) = 158.68 MW
System Energy Import = (7,624.48 - 7,624.48 ) + (469,383.76 - 469,382.36) = 1.4 MW
Net Export = 158.68 – 1.4 = 157.28 MW

Similarly, six readings of Net Export are taken at one-hour intervals, and the average of these
readings is calculated. This average is then used to determine the Net Power Corrected.

Net Average Output = (157.280 + 155.280 + 152.800 + 149.680 + 148.720 + 149.160 ) = 152.153 MWh
Avg Ambient Temp = 43.54 oC
Avg Ambient Press = 999.67 mbar
Avg Ambient Humidity = 18.01%

Temperature Correction Factor:

yt = - 0.0000002697100002*x3 - 0.000028817329184*x2 - 0.003118601339256*x + 1.110096394574
Where x = 43.54, we get
yt = 0.897449

Pressure Correction Factor:

yp= - 0.091158475303018*x2 + 1.19237943937158*x - 0.105966244075041
Where x = 999.67 mbar = 999.67/1000, we get
yp = 0.994923

Humidity Correction Factor:

Since temperature and humidity are inversely related, as temperature increases, humidity decreases. Therefore, to find the humidity
correction factor, an interpolation method is used. A specific set of formulas is designed for different temperatures to determine the
humidity factor. Then, interpolation is applied to find the humidity factor corresponding to the actual average ambient temperature.
Net Power Corrected – ACT 2024
Average Ambient Temperature = 43.54 oC **** If the temperature lies between
Average Ambient Humidity = 18.01% 15°C and 27°C, we’ll apply a correction
factor formula for these temperatures
and then use interpolation to find a
At 40 oC specific correction factor for the actual

Put x =18.01, we get yh = 1.0080 this range. The same applies to other
At 50 oC temperature ranges.

yh= 0.000851991994061*x2 – 0.048190343392719*x + 1.02482859992902

Put x =18.01, we get yh = 1.0162

Now, apply Interpolation formula to find the Humidity Correction factor against Ambient Temp, 43.54 oC:
(50 – 40)/((43.54 – 40) = (1.0162 – 1.0080)/(x – 1.0080)

10 (x – 1.008) = 3.54 (41/5000)
