  4. SEM Go-Live Update What is ERCOT doing this week? Stress test of SEM Go-Live Production system Zonal/Nodal Data Consistency Check MPIM - Market Notice out to USAs for MPIM Roles for NMMS Roles available to assign for NMMS USAs were give information on how to assign the roles for SEM Go-Live Note that all users will receive new accounts/user names Users should carefully type in new password. Copy/paste can cause a password reset to be needed. ERCOT (NMMS team) will email users once the access to the NMMS application has been completed In addition, contact your USA to request access to the role needed to allow the ability to download the full network CIM file. Training ERCOT set up one make-up class – Sept 29-Oct 1 Sign up using LMS - https://www.ercottraining.com/lms/default.asp Communications during the week – NOMCRHelp@ercot.com Namespace issues / application questions There was a temporary issue with NOMCRHelp mailbox – now resolved. Please send again if you had difficulty contacting us early this week http://nodal.ercot.com 4

  5. Market Testing Update Test Environment Update: The NMMS Test/Sandbox environment has been refreshed with a "closer-to-production" model reflecting the June 1, 2009 seed (still processing outstanding Service Requests from summer months) If additional ownership issues identified in the newer test model, TSP can request corrections from ERCOT through nomcrhelp@ercot.com Updated NMMS Test/Sandbox CIM model can be requested Updated model from June 1 seed, but not final for go-live Upon request to NOMCRHelp, ERCOT can FedEx the newer populated CIM model to interested TSPs ERCOT will maintain the Test/Sandbox environment up until the final weekend before SEM Go-Live ERCOT is looking to transition users from current accounts to new accounts created using MPIM in the test environment Date to switchover still TBD (only 8 production user requests thus far) ERCOT has provided TSP USAs with list of users in test environment ERCOT can provide TSP users with the contact info for their USA if needed IMPORTANT- Reminder that production access will have different user names and passwords http://nodal.ercot.com 5

  6. SEM Go-Live Market Engagement Dashboard (as of 8/11/2009) http://nodal.ercot.com 6

  7. Overall SEM Go-Live ERCOT/Market Criteria Dashboard Summary of Criteria from TAC-approved SEM Go-Live Procedure(http://nodal.ercot.com/readiness/golive/index.html )

SEM Go-Live Criteria and Approval • Summary of remaining Stakeholder meeting dates for SEM discussion/approval of Go-Live • August • 30-day Market Notice - July 31 • SEM Go-Live Notice (conditional based on TAC/Board approval) • NDSWG – Aug 4 • August 5 Market Notice - Reminder that Aug 15- Aug 30 only emergency SRs accepted (related to reliability, coordinate with ERCOT director of Grid Operations) • TAC - Aug 6 • ROS - Aug 13 We are here • ERCOT publishes results and sign-off from Directors – Aug 17 • TAC Special meeting – Aug 18 7:30am • BOD - Aug 18 • NDSWG - Aug 18 • 10-day Market Notice - Aug 21 • SEM Go-Live - Aug 31 http://nodal.ercot.com 8

  9. Go-Live timeline and activities (continued) • Transition periods: • June 1- Aug 30, 2009 (objective to minimize SvcReq during this period) • Submit changes as far in advance as possible • No equipment name changes (defer until after SEM Go-Live 8/31/09) • Aug 15-30, 2009 • Two weeks no submissions, except for emergency changes • Aug 31, 2009 - Feb 2010 (NOMCRs for any/all network changes) • After 8/31/09 TSPs will work to validate the network model and align to their in-house systems • Initially the NOMCR timeline will align with zonal timeline • 30-day lead-time, compliant with current zonal database schedule • Status is tracked and communicated via system emails • Any SRs that did not go into zonal production will be converted by ERCOT to NOMCRs for verification/submission by TSPs in Sept • In 2010 TSPs gradually transition to NodalProtocols(3.10) 90-day timeline submission requirements http://nodal.ercot.com 9

  10. FAQ User/password (if you cannot remember your user account/password for the ERCOT network). User name is usually first initial last name (eg, John Smith would be jsmith). If you do not remember either, the password will need to be re-set through the ERCOT Helpdesk (the implementation team cannot administer passwords). if you can’t remember your user name and/or password EMAIL the ERCOT Helpdesk, Helpdesk@ercot.com First and Last name DUNS number Phone number so they can contact you with the new password Service Level Agreement- the SLA for this NMMS testing platform is business hours Monday-Friday. The systems will be kept available after-hours and weekends, but support of questions and system issues will only be worked during regular business hours. Production system access- currently this access is only to the test environments. Work with your USA to assign the appropriate NMMS roles for production access. http://nodal.ercot.com 10

  11. Open Issues / Responses Will there be focused ICCP-only training or a guide for SCADA-focused employees? All TSP users are encouraged to attend the basic training being offered When this training is complete ERCOT will see if there is a desire of MPs to have specialized training for SCADA assignments to build upon the basic training Can an MP modeler set-up new equipment, and then have another user make the ICCP assignment? Yes, the same TSP can have one user establish the equipment in a NOMCR, and a different user can edit the NOMCR to complete the SCADA assignments Can ERCOT set-up a read-only role? By default users are granted read/write privileges Upon an email request to ERCOT can change the access to be read-only Operatorship vs Ownership Line assignment- Legal working on draft of NPRR Service Level Agreement post SEM Go-Live- IT support 99.9% availability, 4 hour recovery Same business support as used for Service Requests Post SEM Go-Live + 60days window for fall-back to Service Requests Post SEM Go-Live + 60days window for NOMCRHelp@ercot.com Guideline discussion Ongoing- from 500 comments, down to 3 significant discussion- see v0.81 from NDSWG agenda http://nodal.ercot.com 11
