Background

Status: Approved
Date Posted: Oct 22, 2020
Sponsor: ERCOT
Urgent: No
Sections: 3.4.2, 3.10.3.1
Description: This Nodal Protocol Revision Request (NPRR) seeks to remove the requirement to obtain ERCOT Board approval to add, delete, or change a Direct Current Tie (DC Tie) Load Zone. This NPRR would also remove the 48-month waiting period before such actions can go into effect. Further, this NPRR would align the timeline for deleting DC Tie Load Zones with the timeline for removing Resource Nodes associated with a retiring Generation Resource.
Reason: Addresses current operational issues
