Summary

This Nodal Protocol Provision (NPRR) implements procedures for Distributed Generation (DG) reporting provided in House Bill 3390 (HB 3390). Specifically, this NPRR clarifies the definition of “Distributed Generation (DG)” and defines a new term, “Unregistered Distributed Generators (UDG).” Additionally, this NPRR establishes procedures for UDG reporting to ERCOT and UDG reporting requirements from ERCOT. Lastly, this NPRR reconciles references to DG to UDG where the term UDG is now appropriate.
