Antitrust Admonition
ANTITRUST ADMONITION
ERCOT strictly prohibits Market Participants and their employees who are participating in ERCOT activities from using their participation in ERCOT activities as a forum for engaging in practices or communications that violate the antitrust laws. The ERCOT Board has approved guidelines for members of ERCOT Committees, Subcommittees and Working Groups to be reviewed and followed by each Market Participant attending ERCOT meetings. If you have not received a copy of these Guidelines, copies are available at the Client Relations desk. Please remember your ongoing obligation to comply with all applicable laws, including the antitrust laws.
DISCLAIMER
All presentations and materials submitted by Market Participants or any other Entity to ERCOT staff for this meeting are received and posted with the acknowledgement that the information will be considered public in accordance with the ERCOT Websites Content Management Operating Procedure.

Weekly Update

Known Issues
• Topology Processor (software that creates the PSS/E file from the Network data) does not export the outages to CRR’s PSS/E file – CRR team has a workaround by using the TCR PSS/E file with
outages and augmenting it for the CRR application– Update: Fixed. This was not only a code change, but a procedure
change as well. The outages file shows line outages – however, the Topology Processor wants the breakers and switches instead of the lines. We currently believe that we will be using the ‘normal’ model build procedure for the December model from the Topology Processor.
• Most recent build from vendor updated a parameter that caused the Counterparty credit limit editor page to be disabled. Vendor has fixed the issue, and the patch is scheduled for release in early October.

Week in Review
• 168 Hour Operating Days (9-9 through 9-15)– All DAM Statements and Invoices have posted
– 9-14 RTM Initial Statements will post today, 9-15 will post on Monday, 9-27
• 9-17 was a No-DAM date. Testing DAM failure Operational Scenario
• 9-2 and 9-3 Operating Days were not supposed to be supported Operating Days, but RTM Initial Statements were posted. DAMs were run internally, so there is DAM Market Input Data (such as DAES, DAEP). QSEs will have issues shadowing Real Time Energy Imbalance for those dates since they don’t have the DAMCODE extracts that show the Day Ahead Records.
• Manual process for recovering missing TWTG was implemented on 9-15 for Interval Ending 96

Environment Report-Known Issues
COMS New Known Issues• TWTG is not being time-weighted according to SCED interval duration, it is being calculated
as the simple average of generation over the settlement interval
COMS Closed Issues• AIEC EOCPRCAP is not calculated correctly when RTPERFIP is missing• Day Ahead Start Up Eligibility is not working correctly with a DAM commitment that does not
start in HE 1 is contiguous to a RUC Commitment that started in HE 1.• A DAM commit in an interval other than interval 1 for the current Operating Day should not
look at any other commit in the current Op Day, to determine a DAM Start• QCLAW - RUC and SELF - SELF commits generate a QCLAW when they should not when
self commits s are connected to each other• QCLAW - A SELF - RUC -DAM commit with the SELF being in later RUC process than the
RUC should yield the SELF commits as QCLAW intervals• If a resource comes online at exactly 1 minute before the end of an hour (XX:59:00) the flag
that determines Energy Eligibility in the DAM Make-Whole payment will not be generated correctly
Reminder: ERCOT will post known issues every Friday to the readiness center at: http://nodal.ercot.com/readiness/markettrials/coms/index.html

Environment Report-Known Issues
Settlements Remaining Defects:• The current implementation of TELHSLFLAG is not appropriately exempting resources from
Base Point Deviation during startup. The methodology proposed in NPRR 273 (exemption when the resource is in an ONTEST status) provides a feasible and efficient option for correcting this issue by go-live.
• TWTG is not being time-weighted according to SCED interval duration, it is being calculated as the simple average of generation over the 15-minute settlement interval. This issue will be addressed at QMWG (next week) along with other issues being incorporated into an NPRR for the Base Point Deviation charge.
• Effective with the 09/28/2010 posting of the Public Reference Data Extract (PRDE) the QUEUE_STATUS column will be removed from the following tables:
– RUCPROCESSHISTORY– CRRSETTLEPOINT

Settlements - FAQs
Q: How do I calculate Real Time Ancillary Services Obligations (RUO, RRO, RDO, NSO)?
A: The protocols in section 6.7.3 don’t show the actual market wide total bill determinants that are used in the calculation. The correct bill determinants are shown in the Nodal Settlements Matrix. “TOT” records should replace the records show below in red. The formulas will be corrected in a Settlements “clean-up” NPRR.
Protocol Formula:
RUO q = (SARUQ q + (RTPCRU q, m) + PCRU q – RURP q – RUFQ q) * HLRS q + RURP q
Matrix Formula:
RUO q= (SARUQTOT + (RTPCRUTOT) + PCRUTOT– RURPTOT – RUFQTOT) * HLRS q + RURP q

September 24, 2010
Update – DAM Credit Constraint
DAM credit constraint – Non-Business day processing• ERCOT will update TPEs and ACLs each day (including non-
business days) for go-live and until an automated solution is implemented– Interim solution to allow market time to consider best long term
solution
• ERCOT will test this process this weekend - September 25-26th (see calendar on the next page)
– To ensure functionality works as anticipated
– Will post final Credit Reports daily and send ACLs• Note: ERCOT does not plan to post preliminary reports on non-business days as
cash cannot be sent
– Will send collateral calls as needed
– Will send 90% notices as needed
• An NPRR will be filed to update Nodal Protocols for this change

RUC Update
http://nodal.ercot.com 52
DAM Failure Operational Scenario – 9/16
• Scenario where DAM fails, ERCOT must still procure the required Ancillary Services
– To procure AS without a DAM (in the adjustment period) is to leverage the SASM resubmission logic (which is being changed by NPRR255 – scenario was completed with current implementation)
– This was not successfully tested for 2 reasons
• The operator did not execute final price calculations properly (not an issue unless there are insufficient offers - new functionality was not documented in procedures, but now fixed)
• The market did not sufficiently offer in their full AS Offers (some QSEs expired their offers)
– Resulted in $2,000,000 prices being posted for some hours. High prices reflect the “Penalty Factor” used in the DAM for evaluating Ancillary Services. Penalty factors are very high value to ensure priority over energy in solution, but DO NOT set prices.
– Additional issue is that reporting expired the SASM reports off the MIS after 3 days, rather than 30 days
– Plan to re-test with alignment of NPRR255 (tabled at PRS to allow AS Offers to be re-submitted without caps)

Last week of Market Trials
DAM executing every day – last day is September 30
• COPs should reflect actual plans for the resource. Please make sure
they are up-to-date prior to the RUC.
• Operational Scenarios:
– NPRR091 - 9/27 (see next slide)
• Starting with today’s DAM, SLANLC8 has been added to the
disabled contingency list
– Lane City - South Lane City 138 contingency isn’t valid because
it’s a zero bus impedance station

September Scenarios
Operational Scenario – 9/27• Lower offer cap and all constraints are treated as non-competitive for the first
45 days of nodal go-live (NPRR091)– Midnight on Monday morning (9/27), we will change the offer cap to the higher of
$180 or 18xFIP (will likely be $180) and change the offer floor to -50.– SCED will immediately begin capping/flattening existing offer curves to the new
cap. Any new or updated offer will be validated against the new cap at that time.– For DAM, on Monday 7 am phase 2 validation, offers in the system with price
>$180 or <$-50 will be rejected/canceled
Known issues
• New– SASM Aggregated AS Offer Curve report – SASM ID is incorrect
• Opened and closed– E-factors not properly transferring for new QSEs
• Fixed in emergency patch on Thursday
– Some non-awarded CRR Offers were not properly passed to settlements from the market system on certain days.
• Fixed in emergency patch on Thursday
