Common use of Split Resource Allocation Protocol Clause in Contracts

Split Resource Allocation Protocol. Specifically, each Split Resource shall be subject to the CAISO Tariff in accordance with Section 2.1 and Section 4.1. The Split Resource Owner has provided to the CAISO an initial draft guidance document defining principles for the Resource’s Master File characteristics, the allocation of both Maintenance and Forced Outages between the Split Resources, and separately, the logical meter calculation for Settlement Quality Meter Data. TheSplit Resource Owner shall provide a final draft of the guidance document to the CAISO no later than May 31, 2020 (“Split Resource Allocation Protocol”). This Split Resource Allocation Protocol will also generally describe expected operational or contractual constraints on the Split Resource allocations. The Split Resource Allocation Protocol must be agreed to by the Parties prior to participation of any Split Resource in the CAISO Markets. Approval of this Split Resource Allocation Protocol does not constitute any waivers of CAISO Tariff requirements for the Split Resource Owner, but is developed solely as a document to demonstrate the practical application of CAISO Tariff provisions. The Split Resource Allocation Protocol shall state a first preference of allocations on a pro-rata basis. With respect to logical meter data, the allocation will be based on real- time, 5-minute dispatch operating targets. With respect to Outages availability will be split based on the following formula. Pro- rata allocation calculation of Split Resource = 𝑛 𝑃𝑟𝑜 − 𝑟𝑎𝑡𝑎 𝑎𝑙𝑙𝑜𝑐𝑎𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛 𝑡𝑜 𝑆𝑝𝑙𝑖𝑡 𝑅𝑒𝑠𝑜𝑢𝑟𝑐𝑒(𝑛)𝑖𝑛 𝑀𝑊 = 𝑆𝑝𝑙𝑖𝑡 𝑅𝑒𝑠𝑜𝑢𝑟𝑐𝑒(𝑛) (𝑀𝐴𝑋_𝐺𝐸𝑁) ∑ 𝑆𝑝𝑙𝑖𝑡 𝑅𝑒𝑠𝑜𝑢𝑟𝑐𝑒(𝑛) (𝑀𝐴𝑋_𝐺𝐸𝑁) Where MAX_GEN values are identified in Schedule 1, Section 1, and shall be consistent with CAISO Master File characteristics. The Split Resource Allocation Protocol will also identify principles for adjusting the allocation when the results of a pro-rata allocation would otherwise be operationally infeasible, or otherwise violate conditions of the pre-existing SMUD contract described in the Split Resource Allocation Protocol that terminates after October 31, 2020. Any modifications proposed to the Split Resource Allocation Protocol by the Split Resource Owner shall only be effective following the approval of the CAISO. The CAISO shall maintain the effective version of the Split Resource Allocation Protocol, and the Split Resource Owner shall maintain copies of the Split Resource Allocation Protocol, which may inform the development of procedures, as appropriate, for Split Resource operation and reporting. Neither Party is required to review or approve any internal procedures, developed by the other Party, in accordance with the Split Resource Allocation Protocol, and in the event of a conflict between such internal procedures and the Split Resource Allocation Protocol, the latter shall control. The CAISO shall have the right to require the Split Resource Owner to submit, with thirty

Split Resource Allocation Protocol. SpecificallyThe Agreement provides that Calpine will assume the financial and operational responsibility for operating Sutter as split resources, while incorporating all tariff requirements associated with generating unit participation in the CAISO markets. This means Calpine is fully responsible for compliance with the tariff rules regarding CAISO market participation by the split resource generating units. For example, the CAISO may issue one dispatch instruction to the split resource participating in the EIM and a separate dispatch instruction to the split resource participating in the real-time market that, either separately or in combination, require the Sutter resource to experience what would otherwise have been an infeasible dispatch. Should this circumstance arise, Calpine would be obligated to operate the Sutter resource consistent with the CAISO tariff and dispatch instruction separately issued to each Split Resource shall split resource consistent with an allocation protocol the Agreement requires to be subject established prior to participation by the split resources. This protocol would consider the principles for allocating resource characteristics, outages, telemetry, and metering for each split resource. It is important to register the split resource characteristics consistent with expectations, to inform the market of limitations that would otherwise create an infeasibility, and to account for the split resources’ performance accordingly. This is the primary purpose of the allocation protocol specific to the Sutter resource. In all circumstances, Calpine would be responsible for the administration of the protocol and for managing all other associated obligations under the CAISO tariff and its contractual obligations to third parties. If the Sutter resource experiences an outage, Calpine would be required to report the outage to each split resource’s Scheduling Coordinator pursuant to this protocol.3 Each Scheduling Coordinator would report the outage according to the CAISO Tariff in accordance with Section 2.1 tariff outage reporting requirements applicable to each of the generating units, including, where applicable, resource adequacy substitution requirements and Section 4.1availability penalties. The Split Resource Owner has provided to the CAISO an initial draft guidance document defining principles Any allocation of planned and forced outages between each split resource is necessarily complex because it must account for the Resource’s Master File characteristicsoperational characteristics and pre-existing contractual obligations associated with the ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Energy Center. To that end, the allocation of both Maintenance and Forced Outages Calpine has committed to allocate outages proportionally (pro-rata) between the Split Resources, and separately, the logical meter calculation for Settlement Quality Meter Data. TheSplit Resource Owner shall provide a final draft of the guidance document to the CAISO no later than May 31, 2020 (“Split Resource Allocation Protocol”). This Split Resource Allocation Protocol will also generally describe expected operational or contractual constraints on the Split Resource allocations.

The Split Resource Allocation Protocol shall state a first preference of allocations on a pro-rata basis. With respect to logical meter data, the allocation will be based on real- time, 5-minute dispatch operating targets. With respect to Outages availability will be split resources based on the following formula. Pro- rata allocation calculation of Split Resource = 𝑛 𝑃𝑟𝑜 − 𝑟𝑎𝑡𝑎 𝑎𝑙𝑙𝑜𝑐𝑎𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛 𝑡𝑜 𝑆𝑝𝑙𝑖𝑡 𝑅𝑒𝑠𝑜𝑢𝑟𝑐𝑒(𝑛)𝑖𝑛 𝑀𝑊 = 𝑆𝑝𝑙𝑖𝑡 𝑅𝑒𝑠𝑜𝑢𝑟𝑐𝑒(𝑛) (𝑀𝐴𝑋_𝐺𝐸𝑁) ∑ 𝑆𝑝𝑙capacity splits 𝑖�the Agreement’s � 𝑅𝑒𝑠��1 whenever possible; i.e.𝑢𝑟𝑐𝑒(𝑛) (𝑀𝐴𝑋_𝐺𝐸𝑁) Where MAX_GEN values are identified in Schedule 1, Section 1, and shall be consistent with CAISO Master File characteristics.
