FCRPS Source. 1. Bonneville will plan to provide up to 900 MW of the Non-Spring Month inc balancing reserve capacity from the FCRPS. To the extent Bonneville is unable to provide 900 MW of inc balancing reserve capacity from the FCRPS, Bonneville will attempt to, but is not obligated to, replace that capacity with third-party inc reserve capacity purchases. In making such acquistions, Bonneville will consider previous monthly or quarterly purchases for that timeframe, the available remaining Annual Budget, the projected reserve needs and the expected impacts during the affected timeframe, and the remaining periods in the Non-Spring Months.
FCRPS Source. 1. Bonneville will plan to provide up to 900 MW of the Non-Spring Month inc balancing reserve capacity from the FCRPS. To the extent Bonneville is unable to provide 900 MW of inc balancing reserve capacity from the FCRPS, Bonneville will attempt to replace that capacity with third-party inc reserve capacity if: (1) Bonneville identifies the need to replace FCRPS balancing reserve capacity before 15:00 Pacific Prevailing Time the day prior to preschedule; (2) the need to replace the FCRPS balancing reserve capacity is not the result of significant energy accumulations during operationally constrained periods of the year; (3) the need to replace the FCRPS balancing reserve capacity is not caused by transmission availability when the inc balancing reserve capacity is available at the generators; and (4) Bonneville is able to replace the FCRPS at a cost of $0.58/kW/day or less. Such replacement costs will be borne by Power Services.
FCRPS Source. If Bonneville determines that the FCRPS is capable of producing more than 400 MW of inc balancing reserve capacity on a short-term basis, then more than 400 MW of inc balancing reserve capacity is available from the FCRPS on a short-term basis, Bonneville shall provide that inc balancing reserve capacity to meet Bonneville’s forecast need for inc balancing reserve capacity before acquiring inc balancing reserve capacity from third-party sources. In that instance, the cost of any Spring Month inc balancing reserve capacity that Bonneville provides from the FCRPS above 400 MW will be at a cost of $0.29/kW/day and will be funded by the Annual Budget. To the extent Bonneville determines it will provide more than 400 MW of inc balancing reserve capacity from the FCRPS but later determines that capacity is unavailable, Bonneville will attempt to replace that capacity with third-party inc reserve capacity if: (1) Bonneville identifies the need to replace FCRPS balancing reserve capacity before 15:00 Pacific Prevailing Time the day prior to preschedule; (2) the need to replace the FCRPS balancing reserve capacity is not the result of significant energy accumulations during operationally constrained periods of the year; (3) the need to replace the FCRPS balancing reserve capacity is not caused by transmission availability when the inc balancing reserve capacity is available at the generators; and (4) Bonneville is able to replace the FCRPS at a cost of $0.58/kW/day or less. Such replacement costs will be borne by Power Services.
FCRPS Source. Bonneville will attempt to provide up to 900 MW of inc balancing reserves capacity from the FCRPS during the FY 2017 Spring Months to attempt to maintain the quality of imbalance service intended in this settlement. FCRPS inc balancing reserve capacity provided above 400 MW during the FY 2017 Spring Months will be at a cost of $0.20/kW/day and will be funded by the remaining FY 2017 Annual Budget.
