___________________________________________________

 

Summary

The California ISO announces revisions to the schedule for Spring Release 2010 Market Simulation for the weeks of March 15-19 and March 22-26, 2010.  These changes affect Ancillary Services-Hour-Ahead Scheduling Process, Scarcity Pricing and Forbidden Operating Region simulation only, and do not impact Proxy Demand Resource simulation.

Main Text

The ISO discovered payload issues, unrelated to Spring Release initiatives’ functionality, that have impacted the ISO’s ability to produce settlement statements for simulation trading days March 8, 9.  Therefore, the ISO has modified the schedule for week March 15-19 and March 22-26, 2010 in order to re-run structured scenarios originally ran for the impacted trading days.

 

For simulation trade dates March 17 and 18, the ISO will re-run and settle the structured scenarios originally ran for March 8 and 9.  The associated revisions to the payment calendar are forthcoming.  Simulation plans for trade dates March 15, 16 and 19 remain unaltered. 

 

During today’s market simulation teleconference, the ISO will discuss plans for rescheduling any forbidden operating region (FOR) simulations intended for March 17-18 to the week of March 22.  The ISO will update the 2010 Spring Release Market Simulation Plan by close of business today.
