  10. Participation in the EDS 3 Testing Phases (Section 1.4 – EDS 3 Plan) * Starting in October Market Participant involvement is critical to begin producing “Reasonable” LMPs. During this period the Market Participants should have a partial EDS system in place to support the activities and functionality being demonstrated. The EDS team will provide workshops during this time to support Market Participants. Required Market Participants that are not able to participate will have to still perform these activities by requesting a ‘make-up’ workshop prior to involvement in later EDS activities. There will be limited opportunities for support due to focus on other EDS functionality. ** The EDS team recommends that all QSEs with resources schedule some time to get familiar with the SCED user interface even if they are planning on utilizing APIs in production. This will help ensure that Market Participants have a second method for accessing the EDS systems if their APIs are not functioning correctly. http://nodal.ercot.com 10

  12. Workshop Objective and Future Plans • Share the draft Market Participant Handbook for SCED testing • Answer any planning and testing questions from MPs present • Target MPs at the workshop will be QSEs with resources • The workshop will take place at MET Center and WebEx facilities will be available throughout • The Market Notice and a reminder has already been sent (see slide #4) • Answers to the questions provided at the workshop will be included in the MP Handbook to be used by the MPs during testing • This workshop will be the first in the series of either monthly meetings or WebEx’s to prepare ERCOT and the MPs for Market Trials which begin in July 2007 – Frequency? http://nodal.ercot.com 12

  14. Typical Questions (Not all MMS or SCED related) • What are ERCOT’s expectations of hardware on the MP side? Does ERCOT expect MP’s to have “go-live” hardware installations in place by July? • Does the previously published SLA apply to the “Early” EDS testing of July – September? • When will MP’s receive the testing scripts referenced in 2.2.1? Also, in the same section, there is a reference to a Communication Process/Tool. Is this in place and documented or is it referring to the SLA? • On the EDS 3 Staffing Organizational Chart (7.2), can you please include names where possible? This is shown on the EDS 1 Chart and we have found it very helpful. • Please elaborate on “Mock Settlement Statements” and what this means (Section 5). We need more detail on what “Mock Settlement” looks like and what software we need to have in place to be ready. More importantly, our vendors need to have more clarity. • When will the “Error Notification API” be delivered (2.2)? This API is a crucial deliverable for effective testing and debugging of software problems. • Note: how do MPs see the data which have been accepted by ERCOT? • Execution of SCED utilizing Real-Time ICCP data – October 07 - does this step include the ability to create proxy curves? • SCED MIS Reporting – November 07 – can MPs see their Resource HASLs, LASLs, SURAMPs, SDRAMPs, HDLs, LDLs via MIS? • QSE Interactions with Interface Testing – is this required to access MIS and/or to use Machine-to-Machine interface? • Each Resource’s responses will be measured against the regulation signals - will LFC ability to calculate and issue Emergency Base Point be tested? • The QSE under test will be asked to submit resource level base points to match its schedule for the test hour. The base points provided should be at 5 min intervals - can QSEs send their resource Base Points to ERCOT via ICCP? • SCED (for base points) - which function calculates the proxy curves? Is it part of this package? http://nodal.ercot.com 14
