LPGRR054  Alignment with NPRR661, Discontinue Posting Profile Data Evaluation Report

This Load Profiling Guide Revision Request (LPGRR) proposes the discontinuation of the posting requirement for the Profile Data Evaluation Report, ERCOT Market Information List (EMIL) ID, ZP18-432-M. This LPGRR is part of a series of revision requests submitted by the Market Information System User Group (MISUG) in support of the TAC June 2013 recommendation that all manually developed ERCOT market reports be reviewed for market interest and the amount of labor involved to produce the reports. This LPGRR is the result of a collaborative effort between the MISUG and ERCOT to review the reports that are manually produced by ERCOT. Below is the MISUG summary of the results of the review: Evaluated the 134 reports manually produced by ERCOT Staff 95 reports are required by Public Utility Commission of Texas (PUCT) Substantive Rules, ERCOT Protocols or an ERCOT Other Binding Document. 39 reports are requested or self prompted. Conclusion of the evaluation: Discontinue 15 reports, eliminating 516 hrs of manual work annually. Continue producing 119 reports which constitute 24,631.5 hours of manual work annually. Automate 15 reports which would eliminate 3,906 hours of manual work annually.
