Automated real-time dispatch to insure feasible instructions in real-time market Better Operator Control resulting in fewer CPS violations Reduced need for Regulation Service Elimination of declined dispatch instructions Some benefits from illustrating potential impact of uninstructed deviations penalties More price volatility Software tuning and enhancement continues to incorporate better unit information and known load and generation deviations 1. New Real-time Market Software InstalledOctober 2004 AYS
Annual real-time congestion costs increased from $151 million in 2003 to $426 million in 2004: Results from sustained derates for transmission upgrades More efficient, cheaper generation available from southwest scheduled in forward markets to meet southern California load may not be feasible in real-time Zonal congestion management market does not account for intrazonal congestion and allows infeasible forward schedules resulting in significant real-time congestion Transmission enhancements and new LMP market design are long –term solutions to address real-time congestion costs 2.
