  1. Integrated Marketplace:Parallel Operations CWG – January 2014

  2. IDT Weekly Update

  3. Agenda • IDT Debrief • IDT 1/21 Preliminary Debrief • IDT 1/27 Look Ahead • Analysis • Dispatch Simulator • Scenario Tracker • Look-Ahead • Schedule: Upcoming IDTs and Scenarios • Reminders • Weekly Updates: Release Scorecard, Migration Report, Known Issues Log

  4. 01-21-14 Deployment Test Debrief • Overall the Twelfth Deployment test was a success • All of the BAs and all but 1 MP were on the call 60 min before IDT. Thank you! The final MP was contacted and joined the call. • Ramp Sharing for the Jan 21 IDT: • Off (0%) for Regulation Up and Regulation Down • On at 100% for Spinning and Supplemental Reserves • Another very smooth transition into test • ACE controlled well • Very good response from the majority of Resources providing Regulation – most of them within 5-10 MWs of their Setpoints for the majority of the test. Brian Strickland

  5. 01-21-14 Deployment Test Debrief • Natural RSS Events • Had a ~120 MW Resource trip at around 10:00 AM • SPP asked MP to deploy Emergency MW • MP followed Setpoints correctly • Slightly above L10 due to “over-response” to the CR event • Had a ~350 MW Resource trip at around 12:30 PM • SPP requested 320 MW of contingency and the market responded appropriately • SPP will analyze Reserve Zone Limits for future large RSS events to assure continued proper response Brian Strickland

  6. 01-21-14 Deployment Test Debrief • Review of RSS Event Expectations • Entity that experiences the Resource trip submits the RSS event • SPP enters event into CRD tool • MPs should follow Setpoints to respond • Small events are handled solely through changes in Setpoints • Large events could require unit commitments • SPP will work directly with the MP to determine which units to commit in order to respond to the event Brian Strickland

  7. 01-21-14 Deployment Test Debrief • Tested BAAL Control for the entire IDT: • Tested managing the SPP BA ACE with BAAL control in place of CPS control • During this time CPS2 violations aren’t applicable • ACE dropped below SPP’s L10 two times: • Eastern Interconnect low frequency • Actual interchange slightly below scheduled interchange • Had a .05 Hz frequency drop across interconnect during IDT • SPP managed well with no issues • The e-TerraArchive application lagged in sending data from EMS to IM: • MPs may have seen differences between XML and ICCP for units in Control Mode 3 during the test • SPP was able to implement a fix successfully during the IDT Brian Strickland

  8. 01-21-14 Deployment Test Debrief • IDT Conditions • Tieline Drop at 12:15 PM • Test went well – SPP collected good data • SPP exercised normal procedures as planned • SPP came out of the test when an RSS Event occurred, but good data still collected • TARRFs of 1: Requested that MPs submit Turn Around Ramp Rate Factors of 1 • Dispatch Target Adjustment from 1:15P to 2:30P • SPP tested internal procedure and functionality for generating Setpoints differently if a severe RTBM outage were to occur • No issues for SPP or the MPs during this test • Regulation Pre-Selection details to follow • EDR Scenario: rescheduled for Jan 27 IDT Brian Strickland

  9. 01-21-14 Deployment Test Debrief • webMirroring was off again for this IDT • Overall most MPs did a better job submitting dual schedule • Only one MP not doing a good job of dual scheduling • SPP reached out to MP directly to try to remedy Brian Strickland

  10. IDT Schedule and Conditions Brian Strickland

  11. Dispatch Simulator – Preliminary results • *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 0:00 1/15 to 23:59 1/17 • 1/15 day was not successful. • Commitments came from DBDA, DA Market, DARUC, IDRUC, and MP Self Commitments for the 16th and 17th as expected • MPs should have received “Production-like” commitment notifications at expected timeframes • SPP will overwrite meter settlement data for the three Operating days Jan 15, 16, 17 with RTBM setpoint instructions. Alan Adams

  12. Dispatch Simulator – Preliminary results • A new control flag was introduced by Alstom with the latest patch that was not set correctly. This caused Generation Actuals to not update properly during the first several hours of the test. One COP True-Up Case that affected 1/15. • SPP Continued to run its NSI True-up function to maintain Marketplace NSI with EIS NSI for any missing schedules. • All other aspects of the simulator were successful and SPP committed Capacity is significantly less than the EIS capacity. • MPs should be able to review their commitments for reasonability and we are asking specifically for any risk for voltage issues given the SPP commitment. Alan Adams

  13.

  15. Reminders SPP will retest the Non-Functional Test Scenario on Jan 23 from 10P – 12A SPP will retest Mitigation Scenarios 16.1 DA and 16.2 RUC on Jan 28 for OD Jan 29 and 16.3 – RTBM on Jan 29 • Any MP who wants to see results of Mitigation needs to fail the behavior test with at least one unit. Units will be picked up in the re-run. • If you are interested in participating in Scenario 16.3 – RTBM Mitigation, please submit the Resource(s) you would like to see Mitigated via RMS(Parallel Ops Quick Pick) no later than Monday, Jan 27 at 12P CPT.

  18. MP Concerns During IDT

  19. Concerns During IDT - Overview • SPP has strived for operations during Parallel Operations and Integrated Deployment Tests to be as close to production as possible • In some cases SPP has been unable, due to Market Participant or SPP actions, or non-actions to do so • In these cases SPP has implemented workarounds to allow the tests to continue • These workarounds have the ability to mask issues until Go-Live that SPP would have otherwise discovered in the Deployment Tests

  20. Concerns – Tagging / Scheduling Dual Scheduling • Issues have occurred prompting SPP to continue the NSI true-up process, which may be masking issues • A few MPs are short staffed especially since Jan 1st and have reported an inability to submit dual schedules • Scheduling Entities without generation are either not aware or not participating in Parallel Operations and not dual scheduling • Next hour schedules are not being dual entered • Schedules on DC Ties • NSI true-up works on an aggregate level. It spreads the difference between the true EIS NSI and the entered IM NSI over all AC ties with the assumption that DC ties schedules are correct. When DC ties are missing it can cause constraint calculation issues.

  21. Concerns - Schedule Mismatch Example from January 8th shows to have had around net 1526 MW difference in Marketplace for schedules Net Breakdown: • 507 MW due to MISO issue that will be fixed in next market release • 67 MW due to mismatch in MWs on tags entered in Marketplace vs. EIS tag • 42 MW due to extra tags in Marketplace. There were several, but were fairly balanced between exports/imports; the net effect was only around 42 MWs • 768 due to tags missing from Marketplace. Not entered • 61 MW was due to tags that failed validation and were overridden

  22. Concerns – Tagging / Scheduling Impact • Once live, Market Participants that have not adjusted their business processes to adhere to Marketplace tags/scheduling business validations, may not be able to perform interchange business • Testing is encouraged • MP are encouraged to practice adhering to Marketplace business validations immediately

  23. Concerns – Resource Offers • Issues exist with MPs carrying Contingency Reserves that are not reachable within the rules and systems of the Marketplace when a unit is on Regulation control: • In EIS some MPs are allowed to stop deploying Regulation in order to serve contingency reserves - in the Integrated Marketplace this is not allowed per the protocols • Ramp rates • Regulation and Contingency Ramp Rates need to match unit capability • Experience with Turn Around Ramp Rate is ongoing, but has significant impact

  24. Concerns – Real Time Data • Plant Shares • Some MPs have been providing data that is inconsistent with how they are modeled in the Marketplace • Load Calculations • Actual Load value from Load Serving Entities has sometimes been incorrect causing error in load forecast • Non-Conforming Load • Some members are not able to properly calculate and send data on the non conforming loads – in a few cases these have been significant

  25. Concerns - Other • Fixed Reserves must be achievable within the ramp provided • Some entities entered more reserves than can be ramped in 5 or 10 minutes • Delay in following ramped Setpoint due to control dead band and point resetting on 5 minute boundaries

  26. Load Aggregates LMP Available via ICCP? • CWG requested SPP research making LMP for certain load aggregates available via ICCP • Data is already posted to Marketplace Portal • To provide via ICCP, a new interface between the Market and ICCP systems would be required, points would be updated on a 5 minute basis. This would involve interface and testing hours • Recommendation: • SPP would not recommend adding this data to ICCP since it is already on the portal

  27. RTBM Availability • RTBM availability during Parallel Operations official ODs • 99.08% availability on average • 19 of 39 days had 100% availability

  28. RTBM Solution Times • RTBM solution times during Parallel Operations official ODs • 89.95 seconds response time on average

  29.
