EDF Trading North America, LLC would pay $57,000 under a settlement with Staff of the Public Utility Commission of Texas to resolve alleged violations of PURA § 39.151(j) and P.U.C. SUBST. R. 25.503(f)(2), concerning failure to adhere to Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT) Protocols §§ 3.9.1(2), related to current operating plan criteria (COP) and 8.1.1.4.3(3)(b), related to non-spinning reserve service (NSRS) energy deployment criteria on May 11, 2013

According to the settlement, Staff determined there were seven instances of EDFTNA failing to update a COP after a forced outage and eleven instances of COP submissions (following a forced outage) where the incorrect Resource Status Code was utilized.

The settlement states on May 11, 2013, ERCOT issued NSRS deployment instructions for the generation resource LARDVFTN_G4 (Laredo 4). EDFTNA was the authorized QSE for the generation resource LARDVFTN_G4.

Staff alleges that Laredo 4 did not reach its LSL within 25 minutes as required by ERCOT Protocols § 8.1.1.4.3(3)(b). Laredo 4 was 41 minutes late in meeting a NSRS deployment on May 11, 2013, the settlement states.
