The California ISO issued additional capacity procurement mechanism (CPM) designations to the two resources identified below. Multiple scheduling coordinators failed to show sufficient resource adequacy capacity on August 2023 monthly Resource Adequacy Plans, which caused an overall net deficiency of 186.06 MW in meeting the total monthly demand and reserve margin requirements. The ISO issued multiple CPM designations under tariff section 43A.2.3 to address the deficiency.
The designations are effective for a one-month term running from August 1 through August 31, subject to the adjustment and payment provisions in the CPM tariff provisions. The resources listed below offered capacity to the ISO to use under CPM, and that capacity was not procured previously as resource adequacy capacity. The ISO procured total capacity of 130.35 MW from the prior designations on July 12, 2023, and 55.71 MW from the two designations below. This brings the total capacity procured by the ISO to 186.06 MW which fully cured the deficiency.
