| Description: | This Nodal Protocol Revision Request (NPRR) and the related VCMRR026 update and clarify language between the Protocols and the Verifiable Cost Manual related to the fuel dispute process. Specifically, this NPRR: clarifies that the Fuel Index Price (FIP) and Fuel Oil Price (FOP) are adjusted by the proxy fuel adder, X, as defined in the Verifiable Cost Manual; clarifies that the maximum amount that may be recovered for fuel oil disputes is the difference between the RUC Guarantee based on the actual price paid and the adjusted FOP; and removes the requirement that a Market Participant obtain ERCOT Board approval when it seeks to support a fuel dispute with documentation not expressly listed in the Protocols. |
| Reason: | Addresses current operational issues. Market efficiencies or enhancements. |
