Sponsor:
ERCOT
Urgent:
No
Sections:
5.3.2, 5.5.1
Description:
This Planning Guide Revision Request (PGRR) proposes two changes to the Planning Guide. The first is new language in Section 5.3.2 that requires Interconnecting Entities (IEs) to provide certain information required for ERCOT’s Resource adequacy reports, Capacity, Demand and Reserves Report and the Seasonal Assessment of Resource Adequacy (SARA) Report, as well as for annual North American Electric Reliability Corporation (NERC) reliability assessment data requests.
The second change, made to paragraph (2) of Section 5.5.1, ensures that ERCOT is a party to a decision by an IE and Transmission Service Provider (TSP) to execute a Standard Generation Interconnection Agreement (SGIA) before all interconnection studies have been completed and reviewed by the parties.
Reason:
Addresses current operational issues and regulatory requirements.
