4.4.7.1, Self-Arranged Ancillary Service Quantities; and 4.4.7.3.1, Ancillary Service Trade Criteria
Description:
This Nodal Protocol Revision Request (NPRR) adds an indicator to Self-Arranged Ancillary Services (AS) and AS Trades to reflect if Responsive Reserve Services (RRS) are being provided from a Generation Resource, Controllable Load Resource, or non-controllable Load Resource.
Reason:
ERCOT should not allow or procure more than 50% of RRS from non-controllable Load Resources. This NPRR prevents this from occurring by specifying the data in the Self-Arranged AS and AS Trades submitted by Qualified Scheduling Entities (QSEs).
