Capacity Markets: 2008 Issues

This issue concerns a number of issues related to the Capacity Markets in 2008. These include:
  • REPLACEMENT TRANSACTION DEADLINE - a proposal to change the replacement transaction deadline.
  • INTERMITTENT GENERATION – a proposal on valuing intermittent generation in the capacity market.
  • TRANSFERRING FRR SERVICE AREAS – a proposal for transferring FRR Service Areas from one FRR Entity to another and allow for the combination of FRR Entities under a single FRR Capacity Plan.
  • PLC ADDBACK METHODOLOGY – a proposal to modify the PLC addback methodology and how the addback would be allocated to the zone and what the impacts would be to the VRR curves.
  • EFORD RISK – a discussion of EFORd risk between the Base Residual Auction and the Delivery Year.
  • ERPM TRANSACTION ENHANCEMENTS – enhancements to the eRPM system to accommodate new transaction types and about additional details on the proposed Locational UCAP product.
  • RPM TARIFF CHANGES – Clarifying changes to the RPM Agreement Language to endorse a proposed change to the billing month for Peak Hour Period Availability Charges and for the Capital Expenditure change.
  • PENALTIES RELATED TO TRANSMISSION PLANNING – performance penalties incurred by RPM resources related to transmission planning issues.
  • INCREMENTAL AUCTIONS – potential alternatives including locational triggers that might warrant conducting a second incremental auction.
  • EFORP - OPERATING RESERVE THRESHOLD – threshold values that will determine if a capacity unit that is experiencing a forced outage is “in demand” for operating reserve. This threshold value is a component of the EFORp metric which is used to determine if resources will be assessed a Peak Hour Period Availability Charge.
