Technical Panel Recommends Two Rule Amendments to the IESO Board

July 19, 2012
The Technical Panel has recommended that the IESO Board of Directors approve two market rule amendments when it meets on September 7, 2012:
 
-        MR-00381-R00: Centralized Forecasting Integration http://www.ieso.ca/imoweb/pubs/mr2012/MR-00381-R00-AP.pdf
 
This proposal amends the market rules to integrate centralized forecasting for variable generation into IESO operations. Specifically, this amendment will integrate centralized forecasting as a limit to be applied on dispatch data submitted by variable generators in the Day-Ahead Commitment Process (DACP) and pre-dispatch schedules. The recommended effective date of this amendment is October 1, 2012. 
 
-        MR-00381-R01: Centralized Forecasting Publication http://www.ieso.ca/imoweb/pubs/mr2012/MR-00381-R01-AP.pdf
 
This proposal amends the market rules to obligate the IESO to provide a confidential, centralized forecast to each market participant operating variable generation facilities prior to each dispatch hour. The recommended effective date of this amendment is October 1, 2012. 
 
Both amendment proposals are based on stakeholder consultation as part of SE-91 Renewable Integration. Further information on SE-91 can be found on the IESO's website at: http://www.ieso.ca/imoweb/consult/consult_se91.asp.
