Reason For Revision
 

The Settlement configuration changes are needed to support the RTM Neutrality Settlement initiative. The objective of the initiative is to:

a)    Eliminate EIM transfer adjustment from RT Imbalance Energy Offset,

b)    Add GHG Financial credit for the portion of EIM transfers that do not correspond to a GHG compliance obligation, and

c)    Use 5-minute ATF tag of EIM transfers in settlement

 

The ISO anticipates implementation of the BPM changes on or about October 30, 2019, with a retroactive effective date 8/1/2019.

Modified BPM language proposed by the PBM Chnage Management Coordinator

The ISO proposes no modified BPM language beyond that proposed in the BPM PRR.
Identification of the authorship of comments

Comments were received from Judy Tsai, Arizona Public Service.
Action

Approve the BPM PRR as modified.

Per posted Announcements from 9/9/18 and 9/23/19: 

(1) Update BPM- CG PC Real Time Energy Quantity v 5.19: Updated equation to properly account for frequency conversion.

(2) Updated BPM- CG 64770 RT Imbalance Energy Offset EIM v 5.2 for the formulas may not have leftover imbalances that are carried over to system RTIEO.

Impact Analysis
Initial Comments
Per follow-up from BPM monthly meeting on 9/24: APS currently submits CAISO’s 5-minute dispatch quantity instead of the ATF tag quantity, these will be accepted and considered to be deemed delivered values.

BPM: Real time Energy Quantity Pre-calculation Version 5.202
3.1 Business Rules
Bus Req ID 9.2:
“EIM BAA responsible for Settlement of the after-the-fact (ATF) Interchange Schedules of EIM Transfers between EIM BAA and EIM BAA shall submit the ATF Interchange Schedules as five minute dynamic schedules”
Based on our understanding from the CAISO Draft Final Proposal3, CAISO has chosen option 3 and communicated to stakeholders that current tagging requirements remain in effect for Market Participants. CAISO will shape the submitted EIM transfer system resource (ETSR) ATF values to reflect RTD ETSR Dispatches. Currently, APS submits CAISO’s 5-minute dispatch quantity, not the ATF tag quantity for Transfer value calculation. In order for us to follow the updated business rules, APS would need to shape the ATF hourly tag value based on the 5-minute Market Dispatch before submitting the data to CAISO since ATF tags generated in WebTrans is at the hourly level. If this assumption is correct, the proposed changes may require significant software and system modifications and will likely require alteration to our internal business processes. APS would like CAISO to provide clear directions regarding the proposed changes on ETSR & RTSI payload process for ETSR ATF 5-minute submission to be consistent across the EIM entities.


BPM: Real Time Imbalance offset EIM CC64770 Version 5.24
3.6 CAISO Formulas
3.6.6 BAAFMMGHGCreditAmount
BAAFMMGHGCreditAmount Q’mdhcif = BAAFMMETSRGHGCreditQuantity Q’mdhcif * BAA15MAverageFMMGHGPrice Q’mdhcif
3.6.10 BAARTDGHGCreditAmount
BAARTDGHGCreditAmount Q’mdhcif = BAARTDETSRGHGCreditQuantity Q’mdhcif * BAA5MAverageRTDGHGPrice Q’mdhcif

APS reviews the above formulas and notes that the Marginal Greenhouse Gas (GHG) price will be averaged for CC64770 settlement calculation. If the purpose of the average GHG price is directed to the potential growth of different GHG zones, APS is concerned that the “Average” of GHG price may cause discrepancies within the settlement between the GHG awards to the Participated Resource Schedule Coordinator Entity and calculation of the ETSR value that deem to deliver to various GHG zones. Based on the last stakeholders’ call, APS believes CAISO should conduct further investigation regarding settlement impact of increasing GHG zones and to establish a new Charge Code to handle the neutrality of the GHG settlement. APS appreciates CAISO stream-lining this component of the GHG calculation that currently is embedded in the CC64770. To “Average” the GHG price on multiple GHG zones, may further raise new, distinct issues regarding charges and compensation of the GHG settlement and further caused settlement issues in the CC64770 Real Time Imbalance Energy Offset (RTIEO).

---------------------------------------------
Based upon the RTM Neutrality Initiative, the ISO has agreed to shape the EIM Transfer System Resource (ETSR) ATF values for which the CISO Balancing Authority Area (BAA) approved with WECC. The ETSR ATF values are between an EIM BAA and CISO BAA. The ISO also agreed to continue to allow the responsible EIM BAA to submit the ETSR values between itself and another EIM BAA which is reflected in Business rule 9.2. Business rules 9.0 through 9.5 provide EIM Entities with rules settlements has adopted for shaping Hourly Integrated ETSR ATF values. EIM Entities can use these rules for guidance on shaping any ETSR ATF values in which they are responsible.
With regards to providing clear directions regarding the ETSR ATF 5-minute submission, the ISO appreciates and understands your request and will take it under advisement for consideration for inclusion in either EIM BPM or EIM Track 4 Overview – Facilitating ETSRs.


The ISO appreciate APS comments and concerns. During Settlement Testing, the settlements team identified a similar concern. As such, the BPM Real Time Imbalance Offset EIM CC 64770 will be updated to reflect a single Greenhouse Gas price per Balancing Authority Area. Upon completion of our testing, the ISO will be providing updated BPM Real Time Imbalance Offset EIM CC 64770 in subsequent BPM Change Management meeting for consideration.

The ISO appreciates Idaho Power’s response.  The output section for item 16, “BAA15MFMMGHGPrice” has been updated to “Balancing Authority Area FMM Marginal Greenhouse Gas Price”.  With regards to the comment on BAARTDGHGPrice, this bill determinant is an input and therefore defined in section 3.6 Inputs – External Systems.  Similarly, BAAFMMGHGPrice which is the input used to derive BAA15MFMMGHGPrice is also defined in the same input section.  Since the RTD price is already in a five minute granularity there is no need to create a new intermediate price.
