Bid review- Challenges with 2013 Bid Limit • Prior sales of annual model- Existing 2013 Annual CRR Ownership consumes 31,448 transaction • Limitation for 2013 auction will be 168,552 transactions (200,000 less 31,448) • CRRAH may also be offering in unknown number of sales (bids & sells in 2013) • CRR Account Holder population has grown- • 97 = Number of active bidding CRRAH in 2011 Annual • 194 =Current number of Registered CRRAH, but 40+ have never locked credit • 10% of bids low priced options, where 2013 Annual auction contained 26,158 option bids at $0.01 • Some bids may have been to create price discovery and transparency, and NPRR395 implemented this summer may help reduce with disclosure of clearing price for cleared and uncleared bids/offers • Observe that if 5,000 limit per CHHRAH applied to the 2011 Year1 Auction (with 10k limit-226k) … • 162,530 = If submission above 5,000 curtailed - 5k limit barely fits under 2013 limit of 168k • 193,263 = If CntPty registers additional CRRAH, could add back 30,733 more bids – over • Risk of more registered CRRAH and Sales of existing CRRs • No guarantee that historical bidding reflects future bidding, but… • 78% of CRRAH had less than 3,500 bids • 70% of CRRAH had less than 2,500 bids ERCOT Public

APPENDIX Feb 2012 Brainstorming of bid limit ERCOT Public
Options around 200,000 Bid Limit (long-term) Options for consideration Auction for the auction- ERCOT to conduct an auction/allocation for the bid capacity Questions to consider regarding timing, involvement of money Complexity of more people, processes, timing Additional chance for “self-reduction of bids” If 200k exceeded, introduce an additional day for self-reduction by CRRAHs of known over-subscribed amount before invoking the low bid limit quantity Increase minimum Option bid price Reserve bid capacity for higher value bids, but no guarantee of <200k limit Remove credit constraint in CRR Clearing engine Allows P-Q Curves (example up to 10 segments) Curve counts as single bid, estimate would consolidate 30-50% of bids (With NPRR357/430 may be able to allow curves for some CRRAH) Forced ranking of 200,000 bids Take all option bids, rank by price, and curtail down to 200,000 limit ERCOT and Vendor will continue to test 200,000 threshold (Testing in progress on new technology stack- CRR Upgrade Project) ERCOT Public
