NPRR515 Day-Ahead Market Self-Commitment of Generation Resources

Approved sponsor ERCOT posted 2013-02-05 ercot.com

ReasonThere currently exists a mechanism for Generation Resources to self-commit and allow the DAM to optimize their energy and Ancillary Service offers. The effect of the self-commitment is to nullify the temporal constraints as well as the requirement to award a block at Low Sustained Limit (LSL). However, the implementation of this is such that it is restricted to a daily decision (self-committed or not for the entire set of hours for that day). Implementation of this NPRR would essentially create an hour-by-hour self-commitment flag.
