Information Layer Requirements

Use the EMS Functional Specifications document to find the specifications mentioned in the below questions.
Describe the system status and resolution/refresh rate of data that the system can receive. (Spec 5.1.1) *
Describe the EMS system capabilities and limitations. (Spec 5.1.1)*
Describe how the EMS will receive and make use of data from other systems (system integration approach). (Spec 5.1.2)*
Note: external systems will share energy information for use by the EMS. These external systems might include electric fleet management systems, storage management systems or weather forecast systems that can impact source and power requirements on site.

Describe how the EMS approaches load control, with an example of load control and/or load shedding based on priority. (Spec 5.2.5)*

General System Requirements
Describe how load, generation and storage balance is achieved in the system. (Spec 5.3.1) *
Describe an islanded system (hybrid system containing solar, storage and diesel generation) and network connected system as references in Fig 1 of the specification document. (Spec 5.3.1)*
Describe how the EMS will manage maximum loads. (Spec 5.3.2)*
Describe how load control and load shedding would be managed for a grid network connected mine. (Spec 5.3.2)*
Describe how forecasts will be imported and used in the EMS. (Spec 5.3.3)*
Describe any timeframe constraints on forecasts. (Spec 5.3.3)*
Describe how the EMS will optimise use of available energy sources. (Spec 5.3.4)*
Describe how the EMS will use forecasts to enable energy efficiency. (Spec 5.3.4)*
Describe how the EMS will incorporate weather forecasts including a contingency. (Spec 5.3.5) *
Describe how energy priorities are applied within the EMS. (Spec 5.3.6)*
Describe how the EMS will forecast energy requirements. (Spec 5.3.6)*
Describe how the EMS will manage and balance the energy network. (Spec 5.3.7)*
Describe how the EMS will start large loads. (Spec 5.3.8)*
Provide an example of the application of large load automatic starting. (Spec 5.3.8)*
Describe how the EMS will manage spinning reserve and electrical system security for islanded systems. (Spec 5.3.9)*
