Summary:

Market Design 2002 Phase 1B, Telemetry / Ramping Credit Effect on Resource, Dispatch, DOP and Expected Energy, Version 1.4 (White Paper), Automated Dispatch System (ADS)

Extract:

The purpose of this white paper is to describe and present information associated with a system feature known as “credit” in RTMA resource dispatch instructions. The credit calculation compares the current telemetered output of the unit against the last GOTO. If the unit is deviating from the GOTO amount, the system will calculate additional unit capability in the direction of the deviation. This document is intended to clarify how this feature relates to dispatch instructions, the expected Dispatch Operating Points (DOPs) and resulting expected energy, as well as provide enough detail to begin development of back-end processes. The paper also contains a description of the algorithm or guidelines for determining when the credit will be applied to a dispatch instruction. The last half of the paper includes examples of dispatch scenarios where the credit is taken into account.
