LONG DESCRIPTION:  ERCOT will host a workshop on the implementation of Nodal Protocol Revision Request 206 (NPRR206 - Nodal Market Day-Ahead Market Credit Requirements) and the use of "e-factors" in the credit exposure calculations in the DAM on Tuesday, August 10, 2010. This workshop will also be offered as a WebEx presentation. NPRR206 revised the process by which credit exposure is calculated for Qualified Scheduling Entities (QSEs) who participate in the DAM. This workshop is intended to provide information on how bids and offers will be evaluated against the Available Credit Limit (ACL) in the DAM, based on NPRR206 and "e-factors".
Market Participants are strongly encouraged to have personnel that need to understand credit exposure calculations and their impact attend this workshop.
