Real-Time Redispatch Coordination Procedures Clause Samples
The Real-Time Redispatch Coordination Procedures clause establishes the processes and protocols for adjusting the dispatch of electricity generation resources in real time to maintain system reliability and balance supply with demand. In practice, this clause outlines how system operators and market participants communicate and coordinate when unexpected changes in grid conditions require immediate reallocation of generation, such as during equipment outages or sudden demand spikes. Its core function is to ensure that the power system remains stable and efficient by providing a clear framework for rapid, coordinated response to real-time operational challenges.
Real-Time Redispatch Coordination Procedures. The following procedure will apply for managing redispatch for M2M Flowgates in the real-time Energy market:
7.1.1 M2M Flowgates shall be monitored per each RTO’s internal procedures.
Real-Time Redispatch Coordination Procedures. The following procedure will apply for managing redispatch for M2M Flowgates in the real-time Energy market:
7.1.1 M2M Flowgates shall be monitored per each RTO’s internal procedures.
a. When (i) an M2M Flowgate is constrained to a defined limit (actual or contingency flow) by a non-transient constraint, and (ii) Market Flows are such that the Non-Monitoring RTO may be able to provide an appreciable amount of redispatch relief to the Monitoring RTO, then the Monitoring RTO shall reflect the monitored M2M Flowgate as constrained.
b. M2M Flowgate limits shall be periodically verified and updated.
Real-Time Redispatch Coordination Procedures. The following procedure will apply for managing redispatch for M2M Redispatch Flowgates and Other Coordinated Flowgates in the real-time Energy market:
7.1.1 M2M Flowgates shall be monitored per each RTO’s internal procedures.
a. When (i) an M2M Flowgate is constrained to a defined limit (actual or contingency flow) by a non-transient constraint, and (ii) Market Flows are such that the Non-Monitoring RTO may be able to provide an appreciable amount of redispatch relief to the Monitoring RTO for a M2M Redispatch Flowgate, or (iii) the Non-Monitoring RTO agrees to initiate and to continue coordination for a M2M Redispatch Flowgate or Other Coordinated Flowgate, then the Monitoring RTO shall reflect the monitored M2M Flowgate as constrained.
Real-Time Redispatch Coordination Procedures. The following procedure will apply for managing redispatch for M2M Flowgates in the real-time Energy market:
7.1.1 M2M Flowgates shall be monitored per each RTO’s internal procedures.
a. When (i) an M2M Flowgate is constrained to a defined limit (actual or contingency flow) by a non-transient constraint, the Monitoring RTO shall consider it as a M2M constraint; limits are verified and updated as required and (ii) Market Flows are such that the Non-Monitoring RTO may be able to provide an appreciable amount of redispatch relief to the Monitoring RTO, then the Monitoring RTO shall reflect the monitored M2M Flowgate as constrained.
b. M2M Flowgate limits shall be periodically verified and updated.
7.1.2 Testing for an Appreciable Amount of Redispatch Relief and Determining the Settlement Market Flow: When the PARs at the Michigan-Ontario border are not in-service, the ability of the Non-Monitoring RTO to provide an appreciable amount of redispatch relief will be determined by comparing the Non-Monitoring RTO’s Market Flow to the Non-Monitoring RTO M2M Entitlement for the constrained M2M Flowgate. When the Non-Monitoring RTO Market Flow (also the Market Flow used for settlement) is greater than the Non-Monitoring RTO M2M Entitlement for the constrained M2M Flowgate, the Monitoring RTO will assume that an appreciable amount of redispatch relief is available from the Non-Monitoring RTO and will engage the M2M coordination process for the constrained M2M Flowgate. When the PARs at the Michigan-Ontario border are in-service, the ability of the Non-Monitoring RTO to provide an appreciable amount of redispatch relief will be determined by comparing either (i) the Non-Monitoring RTO’s unadjusted Market Flow, or (ii) the Non-Monitoring RTO Market Flow adjusted to reflect the expected impact of the PARs at the Michigan-Ontario border (“LEC Adjusted Market Flow”), to the Non-Monitoring RTO M2M Entitlement for the constrained M2M Flowgate. The rules for determining which Market Flow (unadjusted or adjusted) to compare to the Non-Monitoring RTO M2M Entitlement when the PARs at the Michigan-Ontario border are in-service are set forth below.
a. Calculating the Expected Impact of the PARs at the Michigan-Ontario Border on Market Flows The Non-Monitoring RTO’s unadjusted Market Flow is determined as RTO_MF in accordance with the calculation set forth in Section 5 above. The expected impact of the PARs at the Michigan-Ontario border is determined as follows: MICH — OH_PAR_Inea...
