NON-RESOURCE SPECIFIC TSR BREAKOUT: TCR Market

NON-RESOURCE SPECIFIC TSR BREAKOUTFORM

Overview

Market Participants may “breakout” their non-Resource specific transmission service that is inside the SPP Market footprint by placing individual Resource specific transmission service reservations on OASIS that will be used exclusively for the TCR Market. (The original transmission service will remain on OASIS.)

For the master NITS breakout, Appendix 1 of the company’s current NITSA will be used to validate the process. For the breakout of non-Resource specific transmission service that is inside the SPP Market footprint other than the master NITS, all parties involved in the transmission service transaction will be responsible for determining which Resources and Resource capacities should be used during the breakout. The sum of all transmission service from each Resource must be less than or equal to the Maximum Capacity of the Resource.

This form is needed only if multiple parties are involved in a transmission service transaction (e.g., a system sale from one party to another party). Failure to submit thisformwill result in the rejection of a TSR “breakout” on OASIS (if applicable).Section 5.1.1 of the Marketplace Protocols explains the default method for a non-Resource Specific TSR. For a TSR with a source inside the SPP Market that is not a specific Resource or Resource Hub, the load Settlement Location that most closely corresponds to the source on the reservation will be utilized as the source for candidate ARRs.

Market Participant Action

Market Participants may breakout transmission service on OASIS by:

  1. Submitting this Non-Resource Specific TSR Breakout Form to SPP if more than one party is involved in the transmission service transaction; and
  2. Submitting new transmission service requests with the new service code of “SPP FN-7 YEARLY NITS TCR” or “SPP F-7 YEARLY PTP TCR”, whichever is equivalent to the original transmission service type.
  3. The only difference between the original TSR and the new TSR should be the source, the capacity, and the subclass.
  4. Capacity
  5. For Master NITS TSRs, the capacity should be the highest value per Resource found in Appendix 1 of the NITSA (including the comments column) rounded up to the nearest whole MW value. If the MP feels that they are entitled to a different amount other than what is listed in the NITSA, they should contact the SPP Transmission Service Studies group to see about amending their NITSA. If the capacity in the NITSA changes after the TSR has been granted, then this TSR may be recalled and a new TSR may be submitted to represent the new value in the NITSA.
  6. For other Non-Resource Specific TSRs, the capacity should be the amount the parties have agreed to.
  7. Pre-confirming all submittals to allow for immediate confirmation after acceptance by SPP.

Eligibility

The transmission service must have a source inside the SPP Market footprint that isequivalent to an aggregate load Settlement Location.
