  13. New EILS Contract Period(RFP) Demand Side Working Group

  14. New EILS RFP • Today ERCOT will be filing a Petition for Emergency Rulemaking with the Public Utility Commission • Subst. R. 25.507 (a)(2): • (2) Notwithstanding the foregoing, ERCOT may restructure the contract periods to facilitate additional load participation in EILS. ERCOT must publicly announce any changes to the contract period schedule described above at least 90 days prior to the next contract period start date. • Petition will seek to remove the 90-day advance notice requirement Demand Side Working Group

  15. This EILS RFP is provisional and this procurement may be cancelled by ERCOT at any step in the process prior to notification of awards. A decision by ERCOT to proceed with the procurement will be contingent on factors including but not limited to the following: • Approval by the Public Utility Commission of Texas (PUCT) of a change to PUCT Substantive Rule §25.507 (a)(2), • May require Approval by the ERCOT Board of Directors of a waiver of Nodal Protocols Section 3.14.3 (2), • EILS MW capacity offers that are determined by ERCOT to be both sufficient to provide a viable operational tool for ERCOT to deploy in an Energy Emergency Alert and priced consistent with the reasonableness criteria Demand Side Working Group
