Balancing Agent and Dynamic Scheduling. Upon the request of Purchaser, SCPPA shall either (i) retain an agent to maintain and balance Purchaser’s hourly Energy schedules in accordance with WECC protocols (“Balancing Agent”), including the provision or absorption of imbalance energy to accommodate intra-hour fluctuations of Facility Output as compared to Purchaser’s Energy schedule and maintaining a balancing account of accumulated imbalance energy to be settled by adjusting future Purchaser Energy schedules, (ii) arrange for Dynamic Scheduling from the Point of Delivery to Purchaser’s control area or electric system, including the procurement and installation of scheduling hardware, software, and communications equipment necessary to effectuate Dynamic Scheduling,
