What is the minimum amount of hours for fuel supply for Black Start units?

The minimum amount of hours for fuel supply for Black Start units is set at 10 hours. This requirement is crucial for the reliability and operational readiness of these units, which play a vital role in restoring power after a blackout. Black Start units need to be sufficiently equipped with fuel to restart the power system without external power sources. Having a minimum fuel supply of 10 hours allows for the necessary operational flexibility and ensures that these units can function effectively during critical situations where grid restoration is required. This time frame is established to account for various operational scenarios and to provide an adequate margin for potential unforeseen circumstances when the system is being restored.
