The IESO has launched a working group to test new Prudential tools that will help Market Participants monitor and manage their prudential support obligations. These enhancements are being made in response to stakeholder requests for more information about their prudential obligations and the ability to calculate prudential support before submitting information to the IESO.

These systems are scheduled to be available in Sandbox for testing as part of Release 31.0, which will be final on March 5, 2014. Details of this release are posted in Target Release Plan 31.0 (see item A1034 "Prudential Manager Enhancements and Prudential System Calculator").

There will be a webinar for the Working Group, to demonstrate the system, on Tuesday, January 21, 2014. The testing and feedback period will follow from Monday, January 27 to Friday, February 7.

To participate, please email engagement@ieso.ca before January 10, 2014.
