Attached are CenterPoint Energy’s comments to the proposed additions to the MTE HITEs List. CenterPoint Energy believes many of the recently proposed additions still require additional vetting prior to being accepted into the official HITE list. As an example, a few of the newly proposed MTEs that have been identified are the transmission elements themselves that have experienced congestion and not the outage associated with the potential overload. Due to the timing of the ROS and WMS meetings, we feel these additional MTEs should not be approved at this time until further vetting is performed by ERCOT and OCITF to ensure appropriate identification of these proposed MTEs. Therefore CenterPoint Energy recommends moving forward with the original HITE list for ROS and WMS approval.

 

CNP is open to including the new proposed additions at a later time once the appropriate identification of the MTEs and vetting has occurred.

 

Thanks,

Attached is the updated MTE HITEs List after today’s meeting. In addition, it has been uploaded to Sep 27^th 2016 OCITF meeting page.

 

OCITF collaboratively developed Sheet MTE(2015) during the Aug 31^st meeting. Sheet Request for Addition contains NRGs requests we discussed today. Any non-consensus requests (addition or removal) will be tabled at ROS (Oct 6^th) and WMS (Oct 17^th) meetings. Please be prepared to facilitate the discussion on non-consensus items with any additional supporting documents.

 

Thanks,
