W-A122208-02 Other – Resource Asset registration process
SHORT DESCRIPTION: REMINDER
- Single entry Resource Asset registration to support both zonal and nodal
markets
INTENDED AUDIENCE: REs,
QSEs representing REs
DAY AFFECTED: January
5, 2009
LONG DESCRIPTION:
Effective January 5, 2009, all new and updated Resource Asset registration for
both zonal and nodal markets will use the Resource
Asset Registration Form (RARF) or Load
Resource Asset Registration Form. Resource Entities (REs) will
use the RARF to submit resource parameters in support of market and operational
systems, system planning, and the network operational model. The Generation Resource Asset Registration Form
(GRARF), Generation Data Forms, and
LaaR Registration Form will be
replaced with the RARF.
Authorized
RARFs submitted during the nodal market registration period that ended December
12, 2008, will be the baseline for revisions in either zonal or nodal
markets. For revisions to existing resource registration data, submit the
baseline RARF in accordance with the primary or alternative method described
below.
REs
should provide ERCOT with instructions in the Texas Market Link (TML) Service
Request if any revision made on the RARF should be applied to zonal; otherwise,
revised RARFs will be tested for nodal market only. One-line diagrams for
new Resources or revisions to existing one-line diagrams should be submitted in
portable document format (.pdf) attached to the TML Service Request.
Resource
Asset registration submissions using the GRARF or LaaR Registration Form will not be accepted after January 4,
2009.
The
Distributed Generation and Non-Modeled Generation forms are to be submitted in
the same fashion as the RARF, either through the primary or alternative method
described below.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
There are two methods of submitting the RARF, as follows:
PRIMARY: New and revised RARFs should be
submitted through the Texas Market Link (TML) located at https://tml.ercot.com.
Submission through the TML link requires a valid Authorized
Representative’s digital certificate.
ALTERNATIVE: An alternate email signature
document is available upon request from your ERCOT Account Manger for those
that have technical problems submitting via TML. In that instance, the RARF may
be emailed in both portable document format (.pdf) and Microsoft Excel
spreadsheet (.xls) format, along with the signature document, to [log in to unmask]
