Multi-Interval Optimization Objectives • Improved Operational Reliability • Resources will automatically be scheduled in advance to allow ramp rate capability to be utilized to solve future reliability concerns • Operational Stability • Reduced Unit Cycling - The number of start/stop sequences for resources will be reduced relative to current operation • Improved Compliance - Non-compliance with dispatch instructions will be reduced • Improved Market Transparency • IMO manual intervention in the dispatch solution will be reduced • Improve Market Efficiencies • Constraint payments caused by limited ramp capability will be reduced compared to present dispatch 17
Issues/Recommendation • Issues • ABB Solution • Calculation time • Potential hardware upgrade costs • IMO Solution • Solution may not always be optimal • Recommendation • Implement IMO solution • IMO Board approved design stage funds • Will go back in July for build phase funding 19
Next Steps 20
Resource Adequacy Jason Chee-Aloy 21
Short Term Resource Adequacy • Options reviewed, recommended mechanisms being implemented: • Emergency Demand Response • Hour Ahead Dispatchable Load • Replacement Energy 22
Long Term Resource Adequacy • Discussion paper • Working Group formed • Performing feasibility assessment with recommendation targeted for July, design to be completed by year end • Six options currently under investigation • LECG consultants engaged • Working Group is engaged in identifying issues and potential solutions • Stakeholder workshops planned for early to mid-May on draft feasibility assessment 23
Long Term Resource Adequacy • LTRA Working Group: • Objectives • Evaluation Criteria • Draft Feasibility Study 24
Wholesale/Retail Integration Edward Arlitt 25
What is a Wholesale/Retail Issue? • No formal definition, but generally these issues all display four common characteristics: • Both the wholesale and retail markets are affected • It is in the long-term interest of both markets to resolve them • No single governing/regulatory authority has full rule-making powers or responsibility over the issue • They are generally complicated by the fact that they span the wholesale/retail market boundary - particularly in areas such as issue ownership, computer systems, business processes and financial risk management activities 26
Wholesale/Retail Integration Issue Areas: • Financial Stresses across the market boundary • Opening the door to future demand response products that retail customers can participate in while providing a reliability benefit • Ensuring that the wholesale/retail market boundary keeps pace with emerging technologies such as retail-level metering and microgeneration Developments: • Wholesale/Retail Integration discussion paper soliciting stakeholder feedback to be released shortly • Upcoming Pilot Projects 27
Wholesale/Retail Integration The Approach: • Avoid overlap with topics being addressed in existing stakeholder forums • Use of Pilot Projects to look ahead to future logistical challenges • Ensure that future solutions do not conflict with the evolving role of various market participants and retail entities • Ensure alignment with other MEP initiatives 28
