  2. CSWG UPDATE • NPRR 509 Reduced RTM Settlement Time Line • Starting with April 1, 2013 OD, initial settlement statements are posted after 8 days. • CSWG/ERCOT scheduled weekly WEBEX calls every Monday at 3:00 pm to discuss and raise any issues observed during the transition from 9 to 7 days. • So far no major issues are observed. • No impact on ERCOT Staff’s time or processes. • More issues may be observed when we switch to 7 days beginning OD August 1, 2013. (ERCOT will have to push their data aggregation date one date earlier.) • ERCOT Staff keeps track of all the issues raised and solutions in an Excel spreadsheet, link below (under key documents) • http://www.ercot.com/committees/board/tac/cops/cswg/ • Please encourage your back office & settlement staff to participate in the weekly calls.

  3. CSWG UPDATE cont. • Synchronization of Dispute Timeline and MarkeTrak • Reviewed Load Disputes Associated with Data Extract Variances. • Reviewed protocol language (section 9.14). • Emphasis will be on managing Load disputes in the MarkeTrak timelines and providing a fail-safe for QSEs representing load with Data Extract Variances that take time to resolve. • An NPRR will be developed by CSWG to clarify the protocol language.

  4. NON-REGISTERED DG INSTALLED CAPACITY REPORT 2013 Q1 • Current DG registration threshold equals 1MW • Report includes un-registered DG above 50kW and equal to or below the DG registration threshold • Installed capacity limit per load zone equals 10 MW • Click here for this report on ERCOT website.

  5. MISUG UPDATE • COPS voted to approve MISUG as a new COPS working group. • Eric Goff from CITI volunteered to lead the MISUG. • Still looking for a Vice Chair preferably some one with IT and/or Project management background. • Scope will include the current ones such as user interface and market wide reports as well as new items such as developing a business case for creating an open data infrastructure whereby MPs and third party vendors can customize and generate their own reports. • MISUG will also schedule a workshop to review NOGRR084 Daily Grid Operations Summary Report. • Meeting dates still to be decided. • Please encourage your staff to get involved with MISUG if your company sees value in these topics.

  6. UPCOMING • COPMGRRs to align COPS Market Guide with NPRRs 347 and 509 • COPMGRR034 Updates to the Market Notice Communication Process • RMS unanimously voted to request that the Commercial Operations Subcommittee (COPS) table COPMGRR034 until the related Retail Market Guide Revision Request (RMGRR) 115, Manual Work-Around Processes to be Utilized During Extended Retail Outages, is recommended for approval by RMS in order to avoid potential conflicts between COPMGRR034 and RMGRR115 due to RMS tabling RMGRR115. • COPMGRR035 Synchronization of NPRR347 and NPRR509 • NEXT COPS MEETING IS ON MAY 7, 2013 TUESDAY
