  2. Resource Adequacy Standard 2008 RA standard counts significant events: 28,800 MWhrs of energy (per season) or 3,000 MW of capacity (any 1 hour) Any games that exceed these thresholds are considered a ‘miss’ Proposed alternative: build a contingency resource stack and count all misses Assign contingency resources to various ‘buckets’ (by cost, control, stress, etc.) and evaluate use in Genesys post processing First bucket (CR 1) – utility programs Second bucket (CR 2) – non-utility emergency generators Additional buckets?

  3. Utility Contingency Resources – CR 1 Includes Demand Response (DR) programs sponsored by load serving entities – direct control over loads and or resources either in real-time or day ahead Most successful DR programs are for irrigation and A/C – good for peak shaving of summer peaking utilities Other programs such as AGC standby generation can provide capacity and energy across seasons Therefore it is necessary to track contingency resources by seasons and contributions to both energy and capacity
