Discussion of 6/29/09 changes to CRE configurations

  • What changed that caused this concern to manifest itself? (How did the line originally make the CRE list?)
  • What tools can be provided to help market participants be aware that ERCOT is thinking of such changes?
  • What notifications would be helpful to MPs? (Timing of notifications / content)
  • Radial lines-is it ERCOT’s policy to control for overloads on such lines?
  • Is a solution that puts some loads in a non n-1 state acceptable?  If so what are the transmission management guidelines?
  • Recommendations for WMS?

PCAPS-How does ERCOT determine that a PCAP is needed? 

  • Process around proposing and approving PCAPs needs more transparency.
