This Planning Guide Revision Request (PGRR) clarifies references to the Texas Reliability Entity (Texas RE) and the Independent Market Monitor (IMM). The Planning Guide currently refers to the Texas RE in both its capacity as the North American Electric Reliability Corporation (NERC) Regional Entity and the Public Utility Commission of Texas (PUCT) Reliability Monitor, a new term recently added to P.U.C. SUBST. R. § 25.503, Oversight of Wholesale Market Participants.
This PGRR modifies uses of the term “Texas Reliability Entity” to more accurately reflect distinct references to the NERC Regional Entity and the PUCT Reliability Monitor, and clarifies that the IMM is an included party in several provisions related to the ERCOT stakeholder process.
