NPRR881  Annual Validation Process Revisions

This Nodal Protocol Revision Request (NPRR) creates market efficiencies by reducing the Residential (RES) validations requirements from being an annual to an every third year market event. This NPRR greatly reduces the volumes of 814_20, ESI ID Maintenance Request, Texas Standard Electronic Transactions (TX SETs) for RES Annual Validation that would have been communicated through ERCOT and Market Participants’ systems. The results of these changes help to reduce cost associated with numerous resources required to manage and also provide system’s support of these RES Annual Validation transactions when processed yearly.
