On Aug. 31, 2022, the California ISO issued an Exceptional Dispatch Capacity Procurement Mechanism (CPM) designation to address a non-system reliability need to ELCAJN_6_UNITA1. The quantity of the designation was 19 megawatts (MW). The Exceptional Dispatch was issued to address a potential thermal overload in the San Diego Local Area for the next contingency event. The ISO observed post-contingency thermal overloads on a 69 kV line for the loss of another 69 kV line in the San Diego area. In order to relieve the overload, the ISO Exceptionally Dispatched the specified quantity from this unit to maintain reliability.
The ISO has designated the capacity identified below effective Aug. 31, 2022 for a non-system reliability need. The CPM term is for 60 days under the tariff, subject to adjustment and the payment provisions set forth in the CPM tariff provisions.
