Impact of Scenarios Requiring Retest • Scenario 11 – EDR Deployment • SPP Analysis: • Electric Industry Registry (EIR): 1 MP’s registry was not in-line with SPP commercial model. This did not allow the MP to submit the dynamic schedule to the market. • ICCP Model: Control mode and resource MW were “garbage” quality or not modeled in SPP’s data. SPP forced quality to “good.” This allowed set-point to function as intended with good quality feedback. • Retest: pending R1.7x and testing of ICCP in 1.7 environment • MP Impact to Parallel Operations: Small • There are only a few currently modeled EDR’s and most will be deactivated in a future model • Once testing is complete, SPP will schedule the EDR test with the one remaining EDR that will be modeled in SPP • This does not have a significant impact to the SPP Integrated Marketplace as a whole, only the single modeled EDR. Casey Cathey
Impact of Scenarios Requiring Retest • Scenario 15 part 2 – Commitment Mismatch - Resource is committed in DA Market but submits a Commit Status of “Outage” after the DA Market • SPP Analysis: Part 2 was successful when SPP tested Scenario 15 in June; part 2 did not work during SPP retest on Sept 26 • Retest : Pending 1.8 in mid November • MP Impact to Parallel Operations: N/A with workaround • There is a workaround that can be implemented to check for these scenarios and SPP can override the data in the Market Systems so that these Resources are appropriately handled in the RUC process until the fix is delivered. Casey Cathey
Impact of Scenarios Requiring Retest • Scenario 33A&B – Ramp Reservation • SPP Analysis here: • The Ramp Reservation Scenario was completed but not a success • MP experienced numerous system issues due to the current design of the Ramp Availability display unable to handle large volume of tags • In addition, a User’s Training Guide will be developed and posted to the MP prior to the re-test • Retest Update: rescheduled Oct 31 & Nov 1 • MP Impact to Parallel Operations: N/A to Market Systems • Ramp Reservation is a separate system from the Market Systems • This system can be fully tested and implemented apart from the Parallel Operations testing that will be completed Casey Cathey
Impact of Scenarios Requiring Retest • Scenario 5.1 – DA Capacity Shortage • SPP Analysis : Scenario was largely successful but a few issues caused the overall scenario to receive a “Failed” status • SPP expected LMPs/MCPs to reflect scarcity pricing; in actuality, the ramp rate penalty factor was incorrect resulting in MECs > $10,000 • Block loaded resources where EcoMax=EcoMin, but EmerMax > EcoMax are not being released into emergency ranges • Block loaded Resources with EcoMax=EcoMin=0 but EmerMax <> 0 are not being committed. • Retest: pending R1.7x • MP Impact to Parallel Operations: Small • DA Capacity Shortage is an emergency type scenario that will very rarely occur • It is not expected that this scenario will occur organically during Parallel Operations and needs significant data overrides to create. Casey Cathey
Impact of Scenarios Requiring Retest • Scenario 6.1 – DA Capacity Excess • SPP Analysis: Scenario had significant issues with creating a solution that followed the protocols • This case is currently being reviewed by SPP staff and our vendor to determine the exact cause of the issues • Retest: Pending SPP and Vendor analysis • MP Impact to Parallel Operations: Small • DA Capacity Excess is an emergency type scenario that will very rarely occur • It is not expected that this scenario will occur organically during Parallel Operations and needs significant data overrides to create Casey Cathey
Impact of Scenarios Requiring Retest • Scenario 6.2 – RUC Capacity Excess • SPP Analysis : Case did not properly solve within the required solution tolerances; early hour de-commitments were too extreme. • Retest: Analysis ongoing. Retesting to determine a more realistic set of input data. • MP Impact to Parallel Operations: Small • RUC Capacity Excess is an emergency type scenario that will very rarely occur • It is not expected that this scenario will occur organically during Parallel Operations and needs significant data overrides to create Casey Cathey
Impact of Scenarios Requiring Retest • 16.1 – DA Offer Mitigation • SPP Analysis: Systemic issue where the software picks an incorrect Mitigation case’s results for comparison to the unmitigated case’s solution. Did not affect all resources that were mitigated and did not affect all hours for the affected resources. • Retest Update: pending R1.7x • MP Impact to Parallel Operations: Small • Mitigation is not expected to happen on a regular basis • It is necessary for the Resource to fail all three of the mitigation tests in order to be mitigated • This defect did not affect all resource and all hours Casey Cathey
Impact of Scenarios Requiring Retest • 16.3 - RTBM Mitigation • SPP Analysis: Systemic issue where the software picks an incorrect Mitigation case’s results for comparison to the unmitigated case’s solution. Did not affect all resources that were mitigated and did not affect all hours for the affected resources. • Retest Update: pending R1.7x • MP Impact to Parallel Operations: Small • Mitigation is not expected to happen on a regular basis • It is necessary for the Resource to fail of the tests in order to be mitigated • This defect did not affect all resource in all hours Casey Cathey
Impact of Scenarios Requiring Retest • Scenario 21b – RTBM Scarcity Pricing • SPP Analysis: System-wide OR with Zonal OR shortage in zones 3 and 4 did not trigger scarcity pricing. During each hour, SPP incrementally changed the requirements in order to achieve scarcity. Some hours do not trigger scarcity pricing until the middle of the hour. • Retest Update: pending KIL #736 requested in R1.8 in mid-November • MP Impact to Parallel Operations: Small • This scenario only occurs when System-wide OR and Zonal shortage in Zones 3 and 4 occur simultaneously • The only impact to Market Participants is that pricing does not fully reach the demand curve and is therefore less than would be expected by the protocols • The dispatch and clearings are all calculated correctly Casey Cathey

28b RTBM Outage Scenario Description • The RTBM cases execute every 5 minutes to determine the Dispatch set-points and Cleared Reserves on each Resource using a Security Constrained Economic Dispatch. • SPP has process in place for different failure scenarios of RTBM Cases • RTBM executing but unable to achieve a valid solution within a 5-minute dispatch interval or Operator does not approve a case for a 5-minute interval or RTBM cases fail for less than 6 intervals • RTBM executing but unable to achieve a valid solution within a 5-minute dispatch interval or Operator does not approve a case for a 5-minute interval or RTBM cases fail for more than 6 intervals *Oct 14, 2:00 – 3:00P CPT: SPP will simulate an RTBM outage • 2:15P CPT: Jeremy Reddig of SPP will email the Market Trials Liaisons. • 3:00P CPT: RTBM will start working again. Jeremy Reddig will email MT Liaisons. Daniel Baker
28b RTBM Outage Expected Result RTBM Cases Not Executing or Loss of Market System for <6 Intervals • SPP simulates failure of RTBM case execution • MP does not receive Dispatch Instructions or Cleared Reserves for its Resource via XML for the intervals • Resources still receive set-points from ICCP on a 4-second basis Daniel Baker
28b RTBM Outage Expected Result - continued RTBM Cases Not Executing for 6 Intervals • SPP simulates failure of RTBM case execution • MP does not receive Dispatch Instructions or Cleared Reserves for its Resource for the intervals and continues to follow ICCP set-point instructions sent by SPP • SPP switches to Dispatch Target Adjustment functionality in RTGEN • RTGEN will begin deploying the system in a load following manner: • Total required Dispatch Target adjustment: • System Generation Req – [last RTBM solution’s Resource Dispatch Targets (for Resources available for the load following Dispatch Target adjustment) + current output (for Resources not available for the adjustment)] • Available for load following Dispatch Target Adjustment: Resources with Effective Control Mode 1 or 2, good unit MW telemetry, not outaged by active CR event, not a VER / AC EDR • Last RTBM Dispatch Target EDRs must be non-zero to be available for Dispatch Target adjustment Daniel Baker
28b RTBM Outage Expected Result - continued RTBM Cases Not Executing for 6 Intervals • RTGEN will begin deploying the system in a load following manner: • Basepoint adjustment for a Resource is limited by Econ Max - Cleared up Reserves in the up direction and Econ Min + Cleared Reg Down in the down direction, except where the resource is permissively blocked • Participation factors for each resource based on its available room in the direction of the system’s Total required Dispatch Target adjustment. Resource’s resulting Dispatch Target adjustments will be added to the previous RTBM Dispatch Target to obtain the total Dispatch Target for the Resource. • SPP operators will make manual Dispatch Target adjustments in RTGEN • Total Dispatch Target and Dispatch Target Adjustment sent to Resource owner via ICCP • Total Dispatch Target added to the current contingency reserve deployment and regulation deployment components to determine the set-point for each resource Daniel Baker
28b RTBM Outage MP Activities *Applicable to MPs with Resources • Note that XML notifications with Dispatch Instructions are no longer being received • Verify ICCP set-point instructions are being received on a 4-second basis • Make sure appropriate RT Market Contacts receive notification from SPP of the interval that RTGEN will begin load following deployment and targets are not being determined by SCED. The liaisons will receive the email. There will also be XML notification sent through the MOI. • Verify ICCP set-point instructions are still being received on a 4-second basis. Make sure at least one unit is receiving instructions to move up or down, and that this unit has a non-zero Unit Dispatch Target Adjustment value • Make sure appropriate Market Contacts receive notification from SPP that they are returning to normal operations and Dispatch Targets as well as Cleared Reserves will resume sourcing from RTBM. The liaisons will receive the email. There will also be XML notification sent through the MOI Daniel Baker
