NOTICE DATE: July 19, 2013 NOTICE TYPE: M-A013113-04 NPRR SHORT DESCRIPTION: Additional implementation details for NPRR461 INTENDED AUDIENCE: ERCOT Market Participants and Settlement Personnel DAYS AFFECTED: August 1, 2013 LONG DESCRIPTION: On January 15, 2013, the ERCOT Board modified the Effective Date of Nodal Protocol Revision Request (NPRR) 461, Energy Storage Settlements Consistent with PUCT Project 39917, from "upon system implementation" to "upon implementation of Release 6." On February 14, 2013, ERCOT implemented Release 6, unboxed the associated protocol language making this the effective Operating Day for theNPRR461 logic. On August 1, 2013, ERCOT will complete implementation of Release 4 including the system changes and production migration of NPRR461. Please note that the ERCOT Board authorized ERCOT to use NPRR461 Settlement logic for any affected Operating Days on and after system implementation of "Release 6". Therefore, the NPRR461 Settlement logic will be applied on regularly scheduled Settlement Statements for the following Operating Days: · RTM Initial Settlement starting with Operating Day of 07/25/2013 · RTM Final Settlement starting with Operating Day of 06/06/2013 · RTM True-Up Settlement starting with Operating Day of 02/14/2013 Impacted Charge Type: Real-Time Energy Imbalance at a Resource Node (RTEIAMT) Please note that NMSAMTTOT will be used in the calculation of Real-Time Energy Imbalance for all Resource Nodes. RTMG will no longer be used.

The Real-Time Price for the Energy Metered as Wholesale Storage Load at bus (RTRMPRWSL) for previous Operating Days (starting February 25, 2013) will be published in the SID Extract posted on 8/2/2103. The changes to the remainder of the above mentioned extracts will occur starting on 8/2/2013 postings. ACTION REQUIRED: Implement changes to shadow settlement systems in compliance with NPRR461.
