UI’s Real Time Demand Response Proposal Joseph T. Ballantine October 19, 2006
UI RTDR Proposal • Real Time Demand Response to remain as a reliability program governed by Market Rule 1 Appendix E and the Load Response Manual as currently written – this is the basic tenet of the Settlement Agreement
UI RTDR Proposal • Changes to the Real Time Demand Response Program follow the current process of Demand Response Working Group proposals, Market and Participants Committees approval and FERC filing and be separated from ODR changes mandated by the Settlement Agreement.
UI RTDR Proposal • The Demand Response Working Group will review the rules of the new Forward Capacity Market and recommend changes to the Real Time Demand Response Programs that will insure the Real Time Demand Response Resources “shall remain as qualifying capacity Resources”.
UI RTDR Proposal • These changes would have a deadline of February 2008 to insure the Programs do not expire and meet all requirements of the Forward Capacity Market.
UI RTDR Proposal • Changes such as continuation of the price program, hours of operation, methods of calculating peak capacity, performance standards or energy payments levels proposed by ISO-NE could be discussed until a consensus is reached in the Demand Response Working Group, incorporated as changes to Market Rule 1 Appendix E and implemented with the renewal of the Programs in February 2008.
UI RTDR Proposal • Any proposal that eliminates or limits payments to Real Time Demand Response Resources in either the Transition Period or the Forward Capacity Market is in violation of the Settlement Agreement which explicitly states that Resources “shall remain as qualifying capacity Resources”.
UI RTDR Proposal • Would decouple the process and deadlines of defining ODR and RTDR in the FCM • Will allow the DRWG to develop a consensus for changes to the RTDR Program • Sets a deadline for changes of February 2008 to allow RTDR assets certainty in bidding in the FCA • Complies with the SA
SA Language a. In the Forward Capacity Market, Real Time Demand Response shall remain as qualifying capacity Resources subject to Market Rule 1, Appendix E and the Load Response Manual. As such, the role of demand response Resources in the market shall continue to evolve as Market Rule 1, Appendix E and the Load Response Manual are revised.
