Background

Status: Pending
Date Posted: Aug 9, 2024
Sponsor: ERCOT
Urgent: No
Sections: 3.11.2
Description: This Nodal Protocol Revision Request (NPRR) incorporates the consumer energy cost reduction test as the congestion cost savings test in economic project evaluation to address recent amendments by the PUCT to 16 Texas Administrative Code (TAC) § 25.101 —specifically adding the requirements in § 25.101(b)(3)(A)(i). Consistent with the PUCT’s rule, this NPRR also preserves the production cost savings test as another standalone means to establish economic need for a transmission project. This NPRR also removes obsolete language regarding transmission projects’ benefits evaluation in paragraph (6) of Section 3.11.2.
Reason: Regulatory requirements
