Deployment Test Reminders • Please follow IM setpoints • 11/21: NDVERs and DVERs chasing prices • 11/21 IDT timeframe was selected because load was flat and NSI changes are minimum. SPP systems worked correctly but, ACE oscillation caused by Resources who do not follow IM setpoints • During the 12/3 IDT, SPP expects to get load pick up; NDVERs and DVERs need to not run at all or make every effort follow IM setpoints • BAs should not be following or concerned about your ACE • Please ensure systems are following IM setpoints and not trying to control your own ACE CJ Brown
Deployment Test Follow Up • ICCP • DVERs: • Can receive follow flag for economic reasons. Please follow it. • Additionally, if DVERS are being “OOMEd,” they will receive a corresponding follow flag, which we except you to follow. DVERs will always receive OOME and follow flag at the same time. • NDVERs: • No such thing as a follow flag • If you are being “OOMEd”, you will receive an OOME only Carrie Simpson
11-19-13 Deployment Test Debrief • Overall the First Deployment test was a great success • Overall SPP BA ACE and frequency were in acceptable ranges throughout the duration of the test • EIS BA’s had no problems switching from EIS setpoints to IM setpoints and back again – this was the first time this was fully tested • No major problems were reported by SPP or the MPs during the test • Able to start and stop the test on time as scheduled with no delay, reduction or extension CJ Brown
11-19-13 Deployment Test Debrief • Though a “Success” there are things we can improve upon • MATCHING EIS and IM Offers • MPs need to start matching offers 4 hours prior to IDTs to allow time to work out any mismatches • Up to 30 Minutes prior to the operating hour of the IDT, SPP was still working with MPs to get the A/S offers corrected to assure there was enough Regulation and Operating Reserves available during the test • Regulation needs to be provided by the same Resource it was offered into the EIS market on • Coordinating the cutover better • Some MPs switched to IM setpoints too early – SPP will communicate the cutover timing more clearly • The desire for every IDT is to have the EIS BA’s and MP’s with Resources to be following IM setpoints by the start of the first five-minute interval of the test CJ Brown
11-19-13 Deployment Test Debrief • Though a “Success” there are things we can improve upon • Minor MP problems were addressed quickly and didn’t create any reliability concerns • Need to assure that MPs know what desk to call for what questions • Added additional phones to make sure we can take the call volume of changes during deployment tests • 4 RTBM intervals solved but timed out before being approved • System loading is believed to be part of the root cause. Changes have been made to help address this issue. Issue #504 on the Known Issues Log. • RTGEN continued to issue setpoints based on the last good RTBM regulating for ACE. This worked as designed. • MPs need to know what to do in the case of a failed RTBM interval – they should follow setpoints – During the IDT some MPs reported getting a “zero” XML notifications where they should have not received any updates CJ Brown
11-19-13 Deployment Test Debrief • Though a “Success” there are things we can improve upon • Some MPs had XML Listener problems • Need to assure that MPs check them early in the day then again right before the tests • One participant had to manually enter setpoints for the first hour of the test due to problems with their EMS • Lead to a slight lag in managing ACE, but didn’t cause any excursions • MPs with DVERs need to know that if they are dispatched down by the IM setpoints they are expected to follow that setpoint • There were 59 non-wind Resources that had turnaround ramp rate of 0.1 or less – we need to discuss relaxing this for subsequent tests CJ Brown
11-21-13 Deployment Test Debrief • Overall the Second Deployment test was also a great success • Overall SPP BA ACE and frequency were in acceptable ranges throughout the duration of the test • All RTBM intervals solved and were approved on time • No major problems were reported by SPP or the MPs during the test • Able to start and stop the test on time as scheduled with no delay, reduction or extension CJ Brown
11-21-13 Deployment Test Debrief • Though a “Success” there are things we can improve upon • MPs did much better matching EIS and IM Offers – much improved from the 1st IDT but can still get better • Flowgate loading was negatively affected by DVERs who were responding to EIS price signals – once this was communicated during the test it improved quickly • SPP’s Control room displays need some fine tuning • Had a single EIS BA that had some problems following IM regulation setpoints with three EIS BAs reporting some type of EMS issue during the test CJ Brown
Preliminary Results • Scenario 7 Must Offer • *Scenario document on spp.org here • spp.org > Integrated Marketplace > Market Trials > Parallel Operations Test> Integrated Marketplace Parallel Operations Project Documents > Scenarios in Parallel Ops • From initial analysis it appears that most MPs were short of their demand bids and were in emergency conditions that should trigger Must Offer penalties • From here, it is a manual process for the Market Monitor to determine if they were actually short and send out all of the notifications • SPP filed tariff language on November 15th to reflect the determination of Day-Ahead Must Offer compliance at the Asset Owner level. This is important change and SPP will reflect this change in Must Offer Scenario 7. The impact of this change is that the calculations of Net Resource Capacity, Reported Load, and Reserve Obligation will all be made at the Asset Owner level rather than the Market Participant level. • Other updates in the document reflect the timing of the metered load data. While this data is available in the SPP Settlements system on OD+4, it is not available to the MMU until OD+8, after the issuance of initial statements. The updates in Section 1.2 reflect a shift of four days in the expected timing of the Scenario. John Hyatt
Preliminary Results • Scenario 28a Nonfunctional Testing: CMS Outage • CMS was disabled at 10:45 for about 15 or 20 minutes while the MPs continued to submit virtual transactions from the Markets User Interface. • When CMS was disabled, the credit check from Markets was disabled. • When the scenario was over, SPP brought CMS back online, and the DA Markets Desk approved the pending transactions and re-enabled the credit check from the Markets side. That triggered the auto-approve and re-synch process between Markets and CMS, and all processed successfully. • 9 virtual transactions were pending credit approval for 6 asset owners. All 9 transactions approved with the operator manual approval action. • The manual notifications were sent successfully • There is a known defect with Enable Link button command. SPP believes this should be corrected with the next PRD release. For Reference Only

Parallel Ops / IDT Communication Plan Ginny Watson
Scenario 15 pt 2 Commitment Mismatch • *Scenario document on spp.org here • spp.org > Integrated Marketplace > Market Trials > Parallel Operations Test> Integrated Marketplace Parallel Operations Project Documents > Scenarios in Parallel Ops • Scenario Description • A commitment mismatch occurs when a resource outaged in the RTBM commit status conflicts with the COP status for the resource as committed by the DA market. • When there is a commitment mismatch between RTBM commit status and the COP, the RTBM commit status outage will prevail in the RUC solution • Expected Result • Outaged resources will not be committed in the RUC process for the outaged intervals. • SPP operators will update the COP • MPs should receive a STOP notification based on when the Resource is to be outaged. Alan Adams
Scenario 15 pt 2 Commitment Mismatch • MP Activities: Section 2.2. “Outage Commit Status • MPs must submit a commit status of “Self” in the DA Market offer to ensure a resource will be committed in the DA Market and therefore be committed in the COP during the DARUC process • MPs will submit a Commit Status of “Outage” in the RTBM offer prior to the execution of DARUC (1700) on the resource that cleared in the DA Market • MPs will need to review the START/STOP notifications to verify that the resources with a Commit Status of “Outage” received a STOP notification for the beginning hour of the Outage period • Please ensure that for Operating Day 11/26, the designated Resource has a Commit Status of “SELF” in the DAMKT Offer. On 11/25, after the closing of the DAMKT, update the RTBM Offer for OD 11/26 to have a Commit Status of “Outage”. Alan Adams
