SLDC Submission & Revision Windows — Rajasthan
Rajasthan SLDC (RRVPNL)Revisions become effective from the 6th time-block (1.5 hours ahead). Up to 16 intra-day revisions are permitted per day for solar and wind generators.
Applicable Deviation Penalty Slabs
Under RERC (Forecasting, Scheduling, Deviation Settlement and Related Matters of Solar and Wind Generation Sources) Regulations, the following deviation penalty schedule is enforced per 15-minute time block:
Operational Realities & Grid Nuances in Rajasthan
With over 18 GW of operational solar in Rajasthan, evacuation congestion at 400/220 kV substations in Jodhpur, Jaisalmer, and Bikaner frequently leads to emergency backing-down instructions from Rajasthan SLDC.
During pre-monsoon and summer months, severe dust storms and sudden thermal inversions cause rapid generation ramps of 200+ MW in under 30 minutes, catching standard day-ahead forecasting models off guard.
Plants connected to pooling stations must coordinate schedules through a designated Lead QCA. Miscommunication between individual plant operators and the Lead QCA during intra-day revision windows is the primary cause of uncoordinated DSM penalties.
- •Dust storm and sand accumulation causing sudden 25%+ generation drops uncaptured in standard GFS satellite models.
- •SLDC portal communication latency during peak revision hours (09:00 to 11:00 AM).
- •Uncompensated transmission line tripping at Fatehgarh/Bhadla evacuation complexes.
- •Aggregated pooling station accounting where individual site errors can be offset by sibling generators if coordinated in real time.
- •Strict enforcement of 6-block revision advance notice under RERC regulations.
