What is Frequency Regulation?
Resource under AGC control dispatched by area grid operator proportional to system ACE
from “Ancillary Services Manual”, NY-ISO, May 2011This reference has useful storage-specific market description.
What is Frequency Regulation?One of the Ancillary Services opened up to 3rd party competitive supply in deregulated markets

CAISO F/R Performance Req’t Basics
from “ISO Generation Monitoring and Control requirements for AGC/Regulating Units” CAISO, 2/2007
CAISO F/R Comm Req’t Basics
from “ISO Generation Monitoring and Control requirements for AGC/Regulating Units” CAISO, 2/2007
CAISO Comm. Timing for F/R
from “ISO Generation Monitoring and Control requirements for AGC/Regulating Units” CAISO, 2/2007
CAISO Unit Data for F/R
from “ISO Generation Monitoring and Control requirements for AGC/Regulating Units” CAISO, 2/2007
Storage Standards Relevance to F/R
Defined specific service, and
Technical requirements largely similar
But…
No consistency in organization and description of technical requirements across markets buying same product across markets buying same product is an inefficiency
Minor variations in technical requirements to meet same output/outcome is an inefficiency
Resource-specific requirements is a barrier
