Background

Status: Approved
Date Posted: Dec 31, 2013
Sponsor: ERCOT
Urgent: No
Sections:
Description: During Congestion Revenue Right (CRR) Auctions, a system limitation results in an aggregate limitation of 200,000 market transactions for CRR Account Holders. This System Change Request (SCR) increases the limit by 50% to 300,000 market transactions. This change will require improvements to the CRR software and enhancements to downstream systems to ensure that they can properly handle the increased transaction volume.
Reason: The current aggregate system limitation of 200,000 market transactions results in individual CRR Account Holders not being able to submit the number of transactions as they might otherwise like to submit. This may restrict participation in the CRR Auctions, limit the granularity in the transactions submitted, and reduce the number of transactions that are finally cleared within the CRR Auction. Increasing the limit by 50% will help in alleviating these concerns. The change will also lower the likelihood of ERCOT needing to open a transaction adjustment period.
