Sponsor:

Urgent:
No
Sections:
2.3.1.1
Description:
The Other Binding Document, Methodologies for Determining Ancillary Service Requirements, describes a process that may be used to procure additional Responsive Reserve Service (RRS). This Nodal Operating Guide Revision Request (NOGRR) references that Other Binding Document and also adds clarifying language affirming that the minimum RRS obligation remains unchanged (2300 MW), but that additional RRS may be procured if there is a reliability need.
Reason:
The clarifying language is generic so that if the RRS process described in the Methodologies for Determining Ancillary Service Requirements is modified, the Operating Guides may not need to be.
