BPM PRR Submitter

Fox, Jacob (CAISO)
Modified BPM language proposed by the PBM Chnage Management Coordinator

Update Emission State in B2.20 to "The jurisdictional state for the GHG compliance obligation.  Options are California (CA) and Washington (WA).  The emission state may differ from the resource’s physical location. For WEIM resources with no compliance obligation in WA, this value may only be set to CA. For WEIM resources located in WEIM entities outside of CA, this would be used to determine whether the resource is eligible to submit GHG bid adders as per the BPM for the WEIM, section 11.3.3.2."

Initial Comments
The CAISO has received written comments from Amber Clinkscales at SRP:

SRP appreciates the opportunity to comment on PRR 1534. SRP suggests adding clarification on how these changes will impact resources that are not located in WA or CA that desire to bid GHG as a separate bid component, rather than an adder.  SRP’s understanding is that WEIM entity would only be able to select CA (and not WA) as “Y” for a compliance obligation at this time (please confirm).  It would be helpful to clarify if there is no change to the current process for submitting GHG bids for resources outside of CA and WA in the example table in Section K.5.  The examples in the table only mention that the resources in this category cannot have a bid adder, rather than a separate bid for GHG.

---------------------------------------------
Information about GHG biding can be found in the WEIM BPM. The Market instruments BPM attachment K is only regarding how the GHG costs are reflected in default energy bids based on commitment costs.

WEIM entities in compliance in WA would be able to have a Y for both CA and WA. To clarify we will provide an update to attachment B.2.20.

Recommendation Comments
SRP appreciates the opportunity to comment on PRR 1534. SRP continues to recommend that clarification be added on how these changes will impact resources that are not located in WA or CA that desire to bid GHG as a separate bid component, rather than an adder.  SRP recognizes this detail may be located in other BPMs, but it would also help to clarify the bidding aspect in the Market Instruments BPM.
