NOTICE DATE: August 2, 2013
NOTICE TYPE: W-D070313-02 Operations
SHORT DESCRIPTION: Initial and Final determination of RMR status
for AES Deepwater, Inc APD_APD_G1
INTENDED AUDIENCE: ERCOT Market Participants
DAY AFFECTED: October 1, 2013
LONG DESCRIPTION:
On July 3, 2013, ERCOT received a Notification of Suspension of Operations for the following Generation Resource with a proposed effective date of October 1, 2013:
The NSO proposes that this Generation Resource will suspend operation on a year-round basis and begin operation on a seasonal basis with a Seasonal Operation Period
that begins on June 1 and ends on September 30. ERCOT has completed its analysis and determined that APD_APD_G1 is not needed to support ERCOT transmission System reliability (i.e., voltage support, stability or management of localized transmission constraints
under first contingency criteria) during the defined suspension period (October 1 through the following May 31 each year). Pursuant to Section 3.14.1.2.1(3), this Notice will also serve as the final determination, and the Resource may be mothballed according
to the schedule in the NSO. During the defined mothball period, ERCOT will continue to include this Generation Resource in its models, but AES Deepwater, Inc. will be required to designate it as being on Planned Outage in the Outage Scheduler.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: ERCOT has posted the analysis performed to arrive
at its determination on the Market Information System (MIS) Secure Area on the Grid/Generation page under Reliability Must Run at
https://mis.ercot.com/pps/tibco/mis/Pages/Grid+Information/Generation.
An ERCOT digital certificate is required to access the MIS.
