1 ERCOT Overview Paul Wattles Senior Analyst, Market Design & Development Solar Energy Industries Association
2 History of Electric Reliability Council of Texas, Inc Utilities band together to aid war effort 1970 Texas Interconnected System (TIS) forms ERCOT to comply with North American Electric Reliability (NERC) requirements 1981 ERCOT assumes central operating coordinator role 1995 Texas legislature votes to deregulate wholesale generation 1996 ERCOT becomes first Independent System Operator (ISO) in US 1999 Legislature votes to deregulate retail electric market 2001 Ten control centers merged into one control center 2002 Retail electric market opens, enabling customer choice for 6.1 million 2010 ERCOT implements Nodal Markets 2012 ERCOT has about 600 employees and an annual budget of about $170 million ERCOT is a 501 (c)(4) nonprofit corporation 2
3 ERCOT Overview RESPONSIBILITIES The Texas Legislature restructured the Texas electric market in 1999 by unbundling the investor-owned utilities and creating retail customer choice in those areas, and assigned ERCOT four primary responsibilities: System reliability planning and operations Open access to transmission Retail switching process for customer choice Wholesale market settlement for electricity production and delivery. QUICK FACTS 75% of Texas land 85% of Texas load More than 40,500 miles of transmission lines 550+ generation units 68,379 MW peak demand (set August 3, 2011) Physical assets are owned by transmission providers and generators, including Municipal Utilities and Cooperatives ERCOT connections to other grids are limited to direct current (DC) ties, which allow control over flow of electricity (Maximum of 1100 MW on a 69,000 MW system) 3
4 North American ISOs and RTOs Independent System Operators and Regional Transmission Organizations are the air traffic controllers of the bulk electric power grids 4
5 One more way of looking at ERCOT Dozens of REPs competing for residential and small commercial accounts Mostly flat-price options including prepaid, renewables AMI deployment underway Utility in the traditional sense in no longer a valid term MWh 12/1/10 thru 8/11/11 Muni s and co-ops are still vertically integrated Many have existing and developing smart grid initiatives: -- AMI -- Smart thermostats -- Other DLC Possible triggers: Real-time prices, congestion management, 4CP response 5
6 ERCOT Operations Fundamental concept: generation must match load at all times ERCOT directs traffic on the grid to maintain reliability and ensure supply of electricity Balances load and generation at all times (instantaneously!) Manages congestion (flow of power) across the system Secures resources to meet reliability requirements under normal and contingency conditions Coordinates planned outages of generators and transmission lines Coordinates emergency actions & recovery 6
