ReasonThe local Black Start plan is developed by the appropriate TO and then is incorporated into the ERCOT Black Start Plan. The QSE provides a support role, as needed, during a Partial Blackout or a Blackout of the ERCOT System but may not be directly involved in the initial activities associated with a Black Start Resource when TOs and ERCOT are communicating directly with the Black Start Resource.
