At the August 9, 2018 Open Meeting, the Public Utility Commission of Texas (PUC) requested that the IMM and ERCOT host a technical workshop on the filed reports concerning impacts of Real-Time Co-Optimization and Marginal Losses in PUC Project No. 47199, Project to Assess Price-Formation Rules in ERCOT’s Energy-Only Market.

The IMM and ERCOT will present a high-level summary of the assumptions and findings in the reports before addressing technical questions and comments. To aid in an effective technical workshop, ERCOT encourages stakeholders to submit any questions or comments on the reports, including software and data used for such reports, to Dan Jones, ERCOT Principal Commercial Operations, at Dan.Jones@ercot.com, by Close of Business on Wednesday, August 29, 2018. This requested deadline will allow the IMM and ERCOT sufficient time to coordinate on responses for the technical workshop. ERCOT requests that stakeholders note questions or comments in the submissions to align with PUC Project No. 48539 for Marginal Losses and PUC Project No. 48540 for Real-Time Co-Optimization. 

If possible, ERCOT will post any questions received and answers prior to the technical workshop on the Marginal Losses and Real-Time Co-Optimization webpages at the following locations https://www.ercot.com/mktinfo/rtm/marginallosses and https://www.ercot.com/mktinfo/rtm/cooptimization. Otherwise, all questions and answers will be posted after the technical workshop.
