Background

Withdrawn
Date Posted:

Sponsor:
Clayton Greer on behalf of the Wholesale Market Subcommittee (WMS)
Urgent:
No
Sections:
7.5.7, 7.6, 7.9.3.5, 9.4.3, 9.10, 9.12 and 9.13
Description:
This Nodal Protocol Revision Request (NPRR) changes the way short pays to the Day-Ahead Market (DAM) are handled. This NPRR reallocates short payments using a procedure that draws from the Congestion Revenue Right (CRR) Auction revenue account first and then draws any additional shortfalls from the CRR Balancing Account.
Reason:
Allocation to the DAM of short pays is ineffective due to the voluntary nature of the DAM. This NPRR will prevent the potential collapse of the DAM should a large default event occur with CRRs or the DAM.
