Manual 6. Financial Transmission Rights” Revision 15 (October 10, 2013), p. 22. • Stage 2. Stage 2 of the annual ARR allocation is a three-step procedure, with one-third of the remaining system capability allocated in each step of the process. Network transmission service customers can obtain ARRs from any hub, control zone, generator bus or interface pricing point to any part of their aggregate load in the control zone or load aggregation zone for which an ARR was not allocated in Stage 1A or Stage 1B. Firm, point-to-point transmission service customers can obtain ARRs consistent with their transmission service as in Stage 1A and Stage 1B. Prior to the start of the Stage 2 annual ARR allocation process, ARR holders can relinquish any portion of their ARRs resulting from the Stage 1A or Stage 1B allocation process, provided that all remaining outstanding ARRs are simultaneously feasible following the return of such ARRs.20 Participants may seek additional ARRs in the Stage 2 allocation. Effective for the 2015 to 2016 planning period, when residual zone pricing will be introduced, an ARR will default to sinking at the load settlement point, but the ARR holder may elect to sink their ARR at the physical zone instead.21 ARRs can also be traded between LSEs, but these trades must be made before the first round of the Annual FTR Auction. Traded ARRs are effective for the full 12-month planning period. When ARRs are allocated, all ARRs must be simultaneously feasible to ensure that the physical transmission system can support the approved set of ARRs. In making simultaneous feasibility determinations, PJM utilizes a power flow model of security-constrained dispatch that takes into account generation and transmission facility outages and is based on assumptions about the configuration and availability of transmission capability during the planning period.22 This simultaneous feasibility requirement is necessary to ensure that there are sufficient revenues from congestion charges to satisfy all resulting ARR obligations. If the requested set of ARRs is not simultaneously feasible, customers are allocated prorated shares in direct proportion to their requested

Manual 6. Financial Transmission Rights,” Revision 15 (October 10, 2013), pp. 55-56. simultaneously feasible, customers are allocated prorated shares in direct proportion to their requested MW and in inverse proportion to their impact on binding constraints: Equation 13‑1 Calculation of prorated ARRs Individual prorated MW = (Constraint capability) X (Individual requested MW / Total requested MW) X (1 / MW effect on line).22 The effect of an ARR request on a binding constraint is measured using the ARR’s power flow distribution factor. An ARR’s distribution factor is the percent of each requested MW of ARR that would have a power flow on the binding constraint. The PJM methodology prorates ARR requests in proportion to their MW value and the impact on the binding constraint. PJM’s method results in the prorating only of ARRs that cause the greatest flows on the binding constraint. Were all ARR requests prorated equally, regardless of their proportional impact on the binding constraints, the result would be a significant reduction in market participants’ ARRs. Table 13-21 shows the top 10 principal binding transmission constraints that limited the 2013 to 2014 Annual ARR Allocation. For the 2013 to 2014 ARR Stage 1A allocation, PJM was required to increase capability limits for several facilities in order to make the ARR allocation feasible.23 Table 13‑21 Top 10 principal binding transmission constraints limiting the Annual ARR Allocation: Planning period 2013 to 2014 Constraint Type Control Zone Xxxxxxx - Xxxxxx Flowgate MISO Silver Lake - Cherry Valley Line ComEd Electric Junction - Xxxxxx Line ComEd Oak Grove - Galesburg Flowgate MISO Waukegan-Zion Line ComEd Zion - Lakeview Line ComEd Lakeview Transformer MISO Zion Transformer ComEd Braidwood - East Frankfort Line ComEd Greystone - West Xxxxxxx Line JCPL 22 See the MMU Technical Reference for PJM Markets, at “Financial Transmission Rights and Auction Revenue Rights,” for an illustration explaining this calculation in greater detail.

The predicted funding is based on the infeasible ARR MW and the nodal price of the source and sink in the Annual FTR Auction. The estimated funding is calculated assuming every infeasible ARR MW is self scheduled, and uses the hourly congestion LMP values. In the 2014 to 2015 planning period Stage 1A ARR infeasibilities accounted for $105.9 million in over allocation.
