LONG
DESCRIPTION: The Resource Asset Registration Form (RARF) and the
RARF Glossary were updated to conform to current protocol. The definitions of
several Resource Parameters were changed that may be cause for some Resource
Entities (RE) to review the data submitted for their Resources. The
impacted Resource Parameters are:
(j) Hot
start time – The time, in hours, from the ERCOT notice to LSL, for a
Resource in its hot-temperature state;
(k) Intermediate
start time – The time interval, in hours, from the ERCOT notice to LSL,
for a Resource in its intermediate temperature state; and
(l) Cold
start time – The time interval, in hours, from the ERCOT notice to LSL,
for a Resource in its cold-temperature state.
The previous definitions of these
parameters defined the start time as the amount of time required to reach
breaker close after receiving notice from ERCOT.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: If Resources need to change any of
these values, the Qualified Scheduling Entity (QSE) can update these Resource
Parameters using the Market Manager application. These values will override the
RARF-submitted values until the Market Manager submission is cancelled.
CONTACT: If you have any questions, please contact your ERCOT Account
Manager. You may also call the general ERCOT Client Services phone
number at (512) 248-3900 or contact ERCOT Client Services via
email at [log in to unmask].
