  3. NPRR 461 Energy Storage Settlements • Recommendation to endorse NPRR 461 with ERCOT Comments dated Oct. 31, 2012 for further review at PRS • Discussion: • Definition of Wholesale Storage Load (WSL), is currently limited to specific list that does not include thermal storage. • TSP/ERCOT to ensure WSL registration (ERCOT) and that the interconnection diagram is accurate (TSP). • Same process as today. • ERCOT provided a spreadsheet to illustrate settlement • WSL will require ERCOT Polled Settlement Meter • WSL will not be netted with any generation at the site • Non-WLS load (associated load) is metered separately and may be netted against generation. • WSL load is not netted with any generation. • Only WSL for CAES is exempt from the common switchyard requirement • Stakeholders are encouraged to review the language, spreadsheet and Q/A.

  4. NPRR 474 Price Correction • Notification of Price Correction • There are 3 Options proposed. • NPRR 474 changes the posting of final price from next Business Day to second Business Day after the Operating Day. (DAM – 1000 and RT – 1400) • Concern about the reasons for a price correction includes: “Inconsistency with the intent of these Protocols or the PUCT Substantive Rules…” • Concern raised that uncertainty due to the review period without any notice to the market will cause lower liquidity and collateral issues in the over the counter and virtual markets. Some thought that this should have the opposite effect. • Discussion of whether it is better to resolve pricing issues at the Board as opposed to the Commission.

  5. NPRR 474 Price CorrectionOption 1 • The original NPRR 474 language, changing the 45 day notice period to 30 day notice period.
