  4. Updates and Progress • Status for the past week: • Continued to work with several RE’s via conference calls • Iteration 1 completed / Iteration 2 audit reports have been sent • RE’s received an audit report if: • You have errors that still exists or new errors • You have warnings (no action required for warnings) • Note – those that did not turn in a RARF for iteration 1 did not receive a new audit report • Current PUN Transmission Production Quality Metric is at 89% • Up from 86% last week • RARF’s Received for Iteration 1 Deadline: 14 • RARF’s Accepted for iteration 1 Deadline: 1 • Those that were rejected had very minor issues • Total RARF’s Accepted: 1 of 23 (several in the last stage of modification) http://nodal.ercot.com 4

  5. Updates and Progress • Where are we at? • Calls to RE’s will continue through iteration 2 (unless RARF is accepted) • Iteration 2 started on time 4/6/09 • Iteration 2 RARF’s are due by EOB 4/27/09 • Continue to use nodalmarkettransition@ercot.com for questions or to request a conference call to review your audit report http://nodal.ercot.com 5

  6. Special Topics – Engaging Remaining Resource Entities • ERCOT Will be Dividing the Remaining Resource Entities into 2 Submission Windows • Dividing into two windows allows ERCOT to spend more time assisting with MP registration issues • There is no change to the final RARF data collection end date (12/31/09) • These windows will include Planning, Protection and SubSync data • Previously this was out of scope for the transmission data collection phase • Completing this now will reduce the risk of completing at the end of the year as a separate process • ERCOT will ask RE’s to request inclusion into Window 1 or Window 2 at the next Friday Update Call. • As slots fill, ERCOT will make every effort to honor requests, but may have to change it based on capacity http://nodal.ercot.com 6

  7. Special Topics – Engaging Remaining Resource Entities • Window 1 • Begins June 1 ending on Sept. 1 • This will be available to all technologies except Wind • Wind resources will be addressed during Window 2 • WOTF are reviewing potential changes to wind registration data • ERCOT will address Wind Resources once these changes have been solidified • Window 2 • Begins Sept 1 ending on Nov. 1 • All Wind Resources will be in this iteration • There will be capacity for other resource types, but more limited than Window 1 • ERCOT will host a market kick off meeting for both windows • Window 1 kick off meeting is currently targeted for the 5/22/09 • Kick off will take the place of that week’s market call • Market calls will continue to be hosted by ERCOT on a bi-weekly basis through the end of Window 2 http://nodal.ercot.com 7

  8. Special Topics – Planning, Protection and SubSync Data Collection • Planning, Protection and SubSync Data is the last of the RARF data collection categories • Originally schedule for late 2009, it will be rolled into the transmission data collection process • For Private Use Networks that have already completed the transmission data collection, they will have the option of providing the planning, protection and subsync data in either Window 1 or Window 2 • ERCOT is reviewing the supporting tabs in the RARF and ensuring all data requested aligns with base system requirements • RE’s should contact nodalmarkettransition@ercot.com prior to starting these to ensure they are working off of the most recent version of these forms • Business rules will be completed for these tabs by mid-may and tested through the remainder of the month • These will then align with the previously mentioned Windows for transmission data collection http://nodal.ercot.com 8

  11. RemindersOriginally Presented on 3/13/09 • ERCOT has published a revised RARF guide • The revised RARF guide contains all the business rules for transmission assets • The URL where this can be located is:http://nodal.ercot.com/readiness/rq/documents/index.html • Document title: EDS - Resource Registration Guide v4.2 • Scope of Transmission Data Assets (high level lists) • Lines • Breakers and Switches • Capacitors and Reactors • Transformers • Static Var Compensators • Series Devices • Loads • * PUN Load 168 hr Profiles*note that accepted PUN Load 168 hr Profiles will be added to the RARF upon re-submittal Those that still have issues with the PUN 168 profile form, ERCOT will work with you to correct on the conference with your account manager • Out of Scope for this phase • Protection • SubSync • Planning http://nodal.ercot.com 11

  12. RemindersOriginally Presented on 3/13/09 • Clarifying statements on which assets need to be registered / modeled Note: This is specific to PUN’s. Specifics on other resource entities will be addressed on a later call • All assets which are between a generator and the point of interconnect to ERCOT • All Load • Loads which are connected on a Bus greater than or equal to 60kV need to be modeled individually • Loads connected at less than 60kV may be aggregated into an “equivalent load” at the 69kV Bus • Auxiliary and Site Service Load may be combinedNote: Auxiliary load is defined as that which is only present when the generator is running • In some cases it will be necessary for ERCOT and the Private Network to review specific assets and/or sites to make a determination on whether or not it is required to be registered / modeled • These cases will be addressed during a WebEx coordinated by the RE’s Account Manager http://nodal.ercot.com 12

  13. Special TopicsOriginally Presented on 3/13/09 • Issues Encountered on initial audit report group • Found that some validations were too “tight.” • These have been relaxed • Will be discussed on the conference call with your Account Manager if applicable to your audit report • Example high / low side manufactured voltage on transformers was asking for levels at exactly 69,138 or 345 – it now allows up to 9% deviation from these levels (warns > 5%) • Data Pre-population issues • Size of each step on transformer high/low tap settings calculated incorrectly • ERCOT will calculate this based on data provided by RE • This will be ignored if in error on the audit report • Transformer Reactance / Resistance incorrectly calculated • ERCOT will provide correction to RE’s for first iteration 1 submittal • Loads missing on Load tab • In cases where PUN’s have multiple substations under a site code, those substations that are not the same mnemonic as the site code did not populate the Load data. ERCOT will send the additional Loads left off http://nodal.ercot.com 13
