Retail Marketing Subcommittee TAC Update April 4, 2002
Presentation Objectives • Seek TAC Approval of SCR 715 • Seek TAC Approval on two RMS documents • Update Non-PTB Reconciliation and Seek TAC Approval of a RMS Motion • Discuss PTB Synchronization
SCR 715 • Scope: Inform CR of a TDSP rejection of a switch so they can cancel and/or resend with correction. TDSP’s rejection would electronically flow to the CR. ERCOT would generate a transaction from TDSP’s rejection transaction. • Today, this is a manual intensive effort, manual effort increases overall time into switch process and Retail Market already has too many manual processes to support. • RMS seeks TAC approval to include SCR 715 in prioritization process for V1.5, and RMS deems this SCR as High Priority.
RMS Procedure Changes • Working Groups would elect their Chair & Vice Chair and RMS confirms • Updated Working Group list • RMS seeks TAC approval of these updated Procedures
RMS Retesting Guidelines • New document establishing guidelines when retesting should be conducted when a company makes changes to its systems or service providers. • Identified 10 scenarios and the level of retesting and how that would be coordinated in the market place. • RMS seeks TAC approval of the Retesting Guidelines
Non-PTB Reconciliation • Working Group has identified switches not fully completed resulting in different CR’s of record. • Non-PTB either switched to the Gaining CR or received AREP’s standard offer which in many cases is a higher price. • Focusing only on switches between 12/17/01 and 01/19/02. • Number is around 300 ESI Ids.
Non-PTB Reconciliation • RMS March 13, 2002 meeting approved the following motion which needs to be approved by TAC.
RMS Motion • The following processes (1) were agreed to on March 13, 2002 with following TDSPs; AEP, Reliant HL&P, OnCor, and TNMP (2) will be implemented immediately by TDSPs under interim approval;(3) will be taken to the next TAC meeting for approval. • IF: • ESI ID is on the CR list submitted to ERCOT and the TDSP under the Ad Hoc working group direction, and • No valid 867_04 has been processed by ERCOT, and • ESI ID is > or equal to 1 MW • THEN: • TDSP backdates 867_04 to original 814_01 request date.
RMS Motion,continued • IF: • ERCOT shows the TDSP as the LSE past the original 814_01 request date • THEN: • TDSP backdates 867_04 to original request date on the 814_01. • (Note: TNMP has a couple of customers where this IF/THEN may be a problem. Affected CR or CRs will work with TNMP to address.)
RMS Motion,continued IF • ESI ID is on the CR list submitted to ERCOT and the TDSP under the Ad Hoc working group direction. • Valid 867_04 has been processed by ERCOT • ESI ID > or equal to 1MW THEN • Those switches will effectively be backdated to original 814_01 request date.
Non-PTB Reconciliation • Working Group will continue to monitor the reconciliation process through closure. • Working Group’s scope was not expanded to PTB switch problems. Another effort is being considered to address synchronization of PTB ESI Ids.
PTB Synchronization • Currently, the market as a whole has a large number of discrepancies in retail status. • Discrepancies include: • Which CR is responsible for an ESI ID • What the status is of an ESI ID • What date did that status or ownership change • RMS with support from ERCOT is developing a technical & business plan to address this market wide issue. Plan will be reviewed at RMS’ May meeting.
