Common use of Coordinated Flowgates Clause in Contracts

Coordinated Flowgates. An Operating Entity will conduct sensitivity studies to determine which Flowgates are significantly impacted by the flows of the Operating Entity’s Control Zones (historic Control Areas that existed in the IDC). An Operating Entity identifies these Flowgates by performing the following four studies to determine which Flowgates the Operating Entity will monitor and help control. A Flowgate passing any one of these studies will be considered a Coordinated Flowgate. Only AFC Flowgates will be eligible for consideration as Coordinated Flowgates. A Flowgate must have AFCs computed and these AFCs must be used to sell Transmission Service in order to be a Coordinated Flowgate. An Operating Entity may also specify additional Flowgates that have not passed any of the four studies to be Coordinated Flowgates. For Flowgates on which the Operating Entity expects to utilize the TLR process to protect system reliability, such specification is required. For a list of Coordinated Flowgates between Reciprocal Entities, please see each Reciprocal Entity’s Open Access Same-Time Information System (OASIS) website. Coordinated Flowgates are identified to determine which Flowgates an entity impacts significantly. This set of Flowgates may then be used in the congestion management processes and/or Reciprocal Operations defined in this document. When performing the four Flowgate studies, a 5% threshold will be applied on an absolute basis without regard to the positive or negative sign of the impact. Use of a 5% threshold in the studies may not capture all Flowgates that experience a significant impact due to market operations. The Operating Entities have agreed to adopt a lower threshold at the time NERC and/or NAESB implements the use of a lower threshold in the TLR process.

Coordinated Flowgates. An Operating Entity will conduct sensitivity studies to determine which Flowgates are significantly impacted by the flows of the Operating Entity’s Control Zones (historic Control Areas that existed in the IDC). An Operating Entity identifies these Flowgates by performing the following four five studies to determine which Flowgates the Operating Entity will monitor and help control. A As set forth in Appendix C, a Flowgate passing any one of these studies will be considered a Coordinated Flowgate and AFCs shall be computed for these Flowgates, unless mutually agreed otherwise by the Operating Entities and any Reciprocal Entities for the Flowgate. Only AFC Flowgates will be eligible for consideration as Coordinated Flowgates. A Flowgate must have AFCs computed and these AFCs must be used to sell Transmission Service in order to be An Operating Entity shall add a Coordinated FlowgateFlowgate to its AFC process as soon as practical in accordance with the Operating Entity’s processes. Nothing in this section precludes an Operating Entity or Reciprocal Entity from calculating AFCs for any Flowgates. An Operating Entity may also specify additional Flowgates that have not passed any of the four five studies to be Coordinated Flowgates. For Flowgates on which where the Operating Entity expects to utilize the TLR process to protect system reliability, such specification is requiredmanage congestion. For a list of Coordinated Flowgates between Reciprocal Entities, please see each Reciprocal Entity’s Open Access Same-Time Information System (OASIS) website. Coordinated Flowgates are identified to determine which Flowgates an entity impacts significantly. This set of Flowgates may then be used in the congestion management processes and/or Reciprocal Operations defined in this document. When performing the four five Flowgate studies, a 5% threshold will be applied used based on an absolute basis without regard to the positive or negative sign of the impact. Use of a 5% threshold in the studies may not capture all Flowgates that experience a significant impact due to market operations. The Operating Entities have agreed to adopt a lower threshold at the time NERC and/or NAESB implements the use of a lower threshold in the TLR process.

Coordinated Flowgates. An Operating Entity will conduct sensitivity studies to determine which Flowgates are significantly impacted by the flows of the Operating Entity’s Control Zones (historic Control Areas that existed exist today in the IDC). An Operating Entity identifies these Flowgates by performing the following four studies to determine which Flowgates the Operating Entity will monitor and help control. A Flowgate passing any one of these studies will be considered a Coordinated FlowgateFlowgate (CF). Only Flowgates for which AFC Flowgates is calculated (“AFC Flowgates”) will be eligible for consideration as Coordinated Flowgates. A Flowgate must have AFCs computed and these AFCs must be used to sell Transmission Service transmission service in order to be become a Coordinated Flowgate. An Operating Entity may also specify additional Flowgates that have not passed any of the four studies to be Coordinated Flowgates. For Flowgates on which the Operating Entity expects to utilize the TLR process to protect system reliability, such specification is required. For a list of Coordinated Flowgates between Reciprocal EntitiesXXXX and MISO, please see each Reciprocal Entity’s Open Access Same-Time Information System (OASIS) websiteXXXX and MISO OASIS websites. Coordinated Flowgates are identified defined to determine which Flowgates an entity impacts significantly. This set of Flowgates may then be used in the congestion management Congestion Management processes and/or Reciprocal Operations defined in this document. When performing the four Flowgate studies, a 5% threshold will be applied on an absolute basis without regard to the positive or negative sign of the impact. Use of a 5% threshold in the studies may not capture all Flowgates that experience a significant impact due to market operations. The Operating Entities have agreed to adopt a lower threshold at the time NERC and/or NAESB implements the use of a lower threshold in the TLR process.

Coordinated Flowgates. ‌ An Operating Entity will conduct sensitivity studies to determine which Flowgates are significantly impacted by the flows Market Flows of the Operating Entity’s Control Zones (historic currently the Control Areas that existed exist today in the IDC).

A Flowgate passing any one of these studies will be considered a Coordinated Flowgate. Only AFC Flowgates will be eligible for consideration as Coordinated Flowgates.

When performing SPP and MISO will work with NERC and the four Flowgate studies, a 5% threshold TLR history to validate this list of proposed Flowgates.

Use of a 5% threshold in the studies may not capture all Flowgates that experience a significant impact due to market operations.
