Background

Status: Approved
Date Posted: Jan 28, 2025
Sponsor: ERCOT
Urgent: Yes
Sections: 6.5.5.2, 6.5.7.6.2.3, 6.5.9.4.2, 8.1.1.2.1.3, 8.1.1.2.1.7, and 8.1.1.4.3
Description: This Nodal Protocol Revision Request (NPRR): Updates requirements for Load Resources that are changing under Real-Time Co-optimization (RTC) and were not updated in earlier revisions; removes language associated with Group assignments in the Day-Ahead Market (DAM); deployments are Resource-specific based on Real-Time awards; no requirement to return to service in three hours as that capacity will be replaced with awarded capacity in Real-Time; eliminates the automatic qualification of all Resources to provide On-Line Non-Spinning Reserve (Non-Spin) and Security-Constrained Economic Dispatch (SCED)-dispatchable ERCOT Contingency Reserve Service (ECRS). Resources will be required to undergo a qualification test to provide each of these services; and adds additional pre-processing checks in the SCED process to validate Ancillary Service capability telemetry that are sent by Qualified Scheduling Entities (QSEs).
Reason: General system and/or process improvement(s)
