Balancing EILS and Extra Reserves Task Force (BEERTF)

  • TAC Directive
  • RRS/Discount Factor
  • Questions for ROS Consideration (Possible Vote)

 

o        Whether the proposed increase of RRS by 500 MWs (from 2,300MW to 2,800MW) during hours-ending 0600 to 2200 should be an increase to only the amount of RRS or whether it should be a combination of RRS and NSRS as discussed in the LTSTF White Paper and whether 500 MWs is the right amount for the increase in Ancillary Services

 

o        Whether the level of LaaR participation should be increased above 1,150 MWs if RRS is increased above 2,300 MWs (with the understanding that the ERCOT study to determine whether this is viable is currently underway but may take up to six months to complete)

 

o        Whether an increase in the amount of RRS (or combination of RRS and NSRS) is needed for all hours between hours-ending 0600 and 2200 or on the weekends

 

o        Cost/benefit analysis or other type of reasonable comparison of the benefits of EILS vs. RRS, including any broader benefits that increasing the amount of RRS (or combination of RRS and NSRS) may have (such as addressing the issues raised by the Independent Market Monitor);

 

o        Could the need for 500 MWs of RRS be solved by developing temperature-sensitive supply curves for unit specific generation resources instead of RDF? What would be the cost to do so?  Is there a correlation between improved confidence in the capability of the generators and additional RRS?
