Highlights of the COPS 2/12/08 Meeting • DEWG / SDAWG • Held their first joint meeting where discussion topics were of interest to both groups. • Concentrated on EDS4 schedule, timeline, and process expectations. • Reviewed Nodal extract delivery dates noting very tight timeline between initial delivery and the planned 168 hour testing period. • Discussed setting timeline and delivery for data extract SLA
Highlights of the COPS 2/12/08 Meeting • PWG: • Pursuing recommendation of the DGTF and working with Market Rules to effect timely implementation of a profile solution as requested by TAC. • Designing several new residential profiles for solar and wind renewable technologies (based on kW capacity) • Designing allocation algorithms for the outflow energy (energy flowing into the distribution system) • Drafting needed PRR and LPGRR language • To date less than 100 Competitive ESIIDs associated with solar and wind renewable technologies have been provided to ERCOT
Highlights of the COPS 2/12/08 Meeting • DRTF: • Reviewed recommendation for an interim Demand Response Solution for Summer 2008 implementation and the Task Force’s request for Urgency Status to meet the proposed timeline (Urgency Status vote failed at PRS) • Submitted for discussion, comment, and review a proposed PRR and accompanying COPMGRR006 for the proposed Demand Response Interim Solution. • COPS following lengthy discussion approved COPMGRR006. • At an open meeting of the PUCT 2/20/08 the PUCT requested all efforts to implement an interim DR program this summer be stopped. Their interest appears to be in supporting a permanent solution only and recognized that may be sometime after next year.
