SHORT DESCRIPTION: ERCOT is Canceling the Request for Proposal for Must-Run Alternatives to the Life Cycle Power Mobile Generation Solution and Braunig Units 1 & 2

INTENDED AUDIENCE:  All Market Participants

DAYS AFFECTED: January 28, 2025

LONG DESCRIPTION: Effective today, ERCOT is canceling its Request for Proposals for Must-Run Alternatives to the Life Cycle Power Mobile Generation Solution and Braunig Units 1 & 2. 

On December 20, 2024, ERCOT issued an RFP seeking more cost-effective alternatives to contracting for the Life Cycle Power mobile generation solution or committing Braunig Units 1 & 2 through an RMR agreement.  Proposals were due to ERCOT on January 15, 2025.  For more information, see: M-D122024-01 Issuance of Request for Proposal for Must-Run Alternative to the Life Cycle Power Mobile Generation Solution and Braunig Units 1 & 2

In response to that RFP, ERCOT did not receive any eligible proposals that were more cost-effective than contracting for the use of the Life Cycle mobile generators or committing Units 1 and 2 through an RMR Agreement. 

ERCOT anticipates discussion of this issue at the February 4, 2025 meeting of the ERCOT Board of Directors ("Board").  ERCOT also anticipates that, at a future special Board meeting, ERCOT Staff will provide its recommendation to the Board regarding the decision whether to commit Braunig Units 1 & 2 through an RMR agreement or move forward with the Life Cycle Power mobile generation solution.
