SHORT DESCRIPTION: Disbursement of PURA Subchapter M Funds as authorized by the Debt Obligation Order (DOO) in Public Utility Commission of Texas (PUC) Docket No. 52321
INTENDED AUDIENCE: All Market Participants
DAYS AFFECTED: November 15, 2021
LONG DESCRIPTION: In accordance with the DOO issued in PUC Docket No. 52321, Application of the Electric Reliability Council of Texas, Inc. for a Debt Obligation Order under PURA Chapter 39, Subchapter M, and Request for a Good Cause Exception, ERCOT is disbursing payments from the funding authorized by the DOO to Market Participants owed payments due to short payments by competitive wholesale Market Participants for the Period of Emergency (Operating Days February 12 to 20, 2021).
Payments will be made by ERCOT over the course of multiple days, starting first with payments associated with the oldest Invoice dates for which payments are owed. PURA Subchapter M disbursement amounts are reflected in the table below. Additionally, ERCOT originally held funds from Invoice credits and certain late payments received for Invoice dates related to the Period of Emergency (e.g., payments received from payment plans) to help meet ERCOT liquidity compliance requirements due to the usage of $800 million in CRR auction funds temporarily used to cover short payments. ERCOT is now releasing those funds to Market Participants. Payments of such funds are reflected in the table below in the column titled “Held CRR Auction Fund Payment Amount.”
On November 15, 2021, ERCOT will be issuing payments, as described above, to affected Qualified Scheduling Entities (QSEs) and Congestion Revenue Right Account Holders (CRRAHs), as follows:
