Common use of Flowgates Clause in Contracts

Flowgates. Only a subset of all transmission constraints that exist in either market will require coordinated congestion management. This subset of transmission constraints will be identified as Flowgates. For the purposes of the M2M coordination process (in addition to the studies described in Section 3 of this Schedule D) the following will be used in determining Flowgates. 2.1 NYISO and PJM will only be performing redispatch or NY-NJ PAR coordination on Flowgates that are under the operational control of NYISO or PJM. NYISO and PJM will not be performing redispatch or NY-NJ PAR coordination on Flowgates that are owned and controlled by third party entities. 2.2 The Parties will make reasonable efforts to lower their generator binding threshold to match the lower generator binding threshold utilized by the other Party. The generator and NY-NJ PAR binding thresholds (the shift factor thresholds used to identify the resource(s) available to relieve a transmission constraint), will not be set below 3%, except by mutual consent. This requirement is not an additional criterion for determination of Flowgates. 2.3 For the purpose of determining whether a monitored element Flowgate is eligible for redispatch or NY-NJ PAR coordination, a threshold for determining a significant GLDF or NY-NJ PARs PSF will take into account the number of monitored elements. Implementation of Flowgates will ordinarily occur through mutual agreement. 2.4 M2M Redispatch Flowgates and Other Coordinated Flowgates that are eligible for redispatch coordination are also eligible for coordinated operation of the NY-NJ PARs. Flowgates that are eligible for coordinated operation of the NY-NJ PARs are not necessarily also eligible for redispatch coordination. 2.5 The NYISO shall post a list of all of the Flowgates located in the New York Control Area (“NYCA”) on its web site. PJM shall post a list of all of the Flowgates located in its Control Area on its web site.
