Recommendation Comment for PRR - 1178

Description: NCPA would like to thank the ISO for making these changes. We believe that change 5.5.1 is an incremental improvement only, and we have already identified cases where this change will most likely not function as intended. A permanent change that would go a long way toward solving the root issue would be to use actual OMS outage data, for approved outages, from the incident start time, normalized to five-minute clock intervals. Failing a change like the one described, NCPA will most likely continue to submit disputes on the MSS Deviation Penalty calculations based on outages. NCPA is grateful for the change outlined in 5.6. We believe this is a sound change that will save many unnecessary disputes and consequent associated labor on both sides. Thank You! With the exception of the previous comment made regarding the use of OMS, the only recommendation NCPA would make would be to make both these changes prospective. We just suffered through a whole year of recalculations with the May 2019 configuration, which, in some cases ameliorated and in others exacerbated some of the problems we have experienced. It is unclear why we have to open the books to more changes once again. Thank You! NCPA Settlements

Recommendation Comment for PRR - 1178

Description: The ISO appreciates NCPA’s response. Based upon NCPA’s disputes, NCPA MSSA Agreement, and the ISO tariff, Settlements in conjunction with ISO Legal and Contracts groups have determined that the proposed settlement modifications will resolve NCPA‘s disputes.

Response: The ISO also understands NCPA’s concern regarding the timing of when forced outages are submitted and accepted in relation with the RTD market run, however settlements will process and assess forced outages in the same manner that the RTD market consumes the outage information from OMS to ensure consistency throughout the market and post market solutions. Since the settlement modifications were prompted by multiple NCPA disputes relating to the qualification of the forced outage quantity currently represented by SLIC energy, In order to resolve these open disputes the ISO modifications will be implemented a retroactive fix. Furthermore, this fix is ensuring alignment of the settlements configuration with the MSSA Agreement.
