NOTICE DATE: January 30, 2013
NOTICE TYPE: M-A013013-01 NPRR
SHORT DESCRIPTION: Implementation details of NPRR313
INTENDED AUDIENCE: ERCOT Market Participants
DAY AFFECTED: Operating Day February 14, 2013
LONG DESCRIPTION: ERCOT will implement NPRR313, Revisions to the Resource Plan Reference to Current Operating Plan for EILS and Synchronous Condensers and Black
Start Notification Requirements (formerly “Updating the Term Resource Plan to Current Operating Plan”), on February 14, 2013. Market Participants can begin entry of data on February 13, 2013 in preparation for the February 14 effective date.
This Nodal Protocol Revision Request (NPRR) replaces the term “Resource Plan” with the term “Current Operating Plan” or “Availability Plan” in those instances where the change in terminology
was not previously made. This NPRR also adds a Black Start capable status indicator to the Availability Plan to allow ERCOT to settle payment for Black Start units programmatically; and allows Qualified Scheduling Entities (QSEs) with Black Start units to
provide all of the Black Start availability through the Availability Plan.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: Pursuant to Protocol Section 21.6, Nodal Protocol Revision Implementation, ERCOT is required to provide notice as soon as practicable,
but no later than ten days prior to implementation.
