Flexible Resource Adequacy Criteria and Must-Offer Obligation December 20, 2012 Karl Meeusen, Ph.D. Market Design and Regulatory Policy Lead Introduction and Stakeholder Process Tom Cuccia Page 2 Purpose of this initiative is to ensure the ISO has sufficient tariff authority to manage Flexible Capacity RA Resources • ISO will conduct a two stage process • The first stage, for 2014 RA compliance, focuses on: – Default provisions for LRA’s without flexible capacity procurement obligations – Backstop procurement authority • The second stage, for 2015 RA compliance, will focus on: – Enhanced performance obligations for flexible capacity resources, including must-offer obligations – Backstop procurement compensation for flexible capacity resource obligations, and – Revisions to the ISO Standard Capacity Product tariff provisions to apply to flexible RA capacity resources.
