CCWG • Developing nodal Sections in the Commercial Operations Market Guide • Reviewing Service Level Agreement – communication for Data Extract Issues
SDAWG & DEWG • ERCOT discussed recent issues with Data Extract delays and errors that occurred beginning in February • Issue root causes: • Database maintenance on storage of data and data clean-up • Errors in manual processes • Missing data on DST trade date • Database permissions issues • ERCOT continues to work to resolve these issues and achieve timely posting of extracts • Many key extracts have posted within the 48-hour timeline; however, certain key extracts (such as forecasted losses) are delayed beyond the time where they can be used for Day Ahead and/or day of requirements
SDAWG & DEWG • ERCOT staff introduced a format for more detailed information and tracking of Extract Issues • DEWG has adopted this format, similar to format utilized in Retail Systems reporting • ERCOT and DEWG will continue to address issues and track them in more detail • Focus going forward will be to continue to improve on communication to Market Participants and on communicating issues to the appropriate Stakeholder committees • DEWG and SDAWG will continue to focus on fine-tuning the Extract requirements for the current market and apply the same principles to Extracts and Reports for the Nodal Market.
