Current Proposed Settlement (continued) ERCOT • Customer signs with DR Provider for 4 MWs 4 MWs 4 MWs @ LMP – LMPz 4 MWs DR Provider Customer DR $
Current Proposed Settlement (continued) All REPs’ Settlement 4 MWs @ LMPz 4 MWs ERCOT 4 MWs @ LMP – LMPz 4 MWs 4 MWs @ LMPz 4 MWs @ LMP – LMPz 4 MWs 4 MWs REP DR Provider Customer Retail $ DR $ Wholesale $ 4 MWs Wholesale Counterparty
Current Proposed Settlement Issues • Focus has been what to pay the DR Provider • Will the risk of LMPz being higher than LMP suppress DR? • What should ERCOT pay original REP to keep ERCOT indifferent? • REP now has price risk = 8 MWs LMPz – 4 MWs LMP – 4 MWs Wholesale $
Remedy All REPs’ Settlement 4 MWs @ LMPz 4 MWs ERCOT 4 MWs @ Retail $ 4 MWs 4 MWs @ LMPz – Retail $ 4 MWs 4 MWs REP DR Provider Customer Retail $ DR $ Wholesale $ 4 MWs Wholesale Counterparty
Remedy Issues • Keeps REP and ERCOT indifferent • In line with other ISOs (pre-FERC Order re: Net Benefits) • Requires ERCOT to collect Retail Rate • Part of registration process with DR Provider • Does not further incent loads @ high priced LMP
