9.14.7, Disputes for RUC Make Whole Payment for Exceptional Fuel Costs.
Description:
This Nodal Protocol Revision Request (NPRR) allows for disputes of FOP.
Reason:
This NPRR also allows a Qualified Scheduling Entity (QSE) to file a Settlement dispute for a Resource’s Reliability Unit Commitment (RUC) Make-Whole Payment if the actual price paid for delivered fuel oil for a specific Resource during a RUC instruction interval is greater than Fuel Oil Price (FOP). The maximum amount that may be recovered through this dispute process is the difference between the RUC Guarantee based on the actual price paid and a fuel price of FOP.
