Texas Generator Would Pay $40,000 Under Settlement With PUCT Staff
Austin Energy would pay $40,000 under a settlement with Staff of the Public Utility Commission of Texas to resolve an investigation into Austin Energy's alleged failure to adhere to Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT) Protocols § 8.5.1.1, relating to governor in service; and, ERCOT Operating Guide §§ 2.2.8 and 2.3.1.2, relating to primary frequency response (PFR).
Commission Staff alleged that Austin Energy resource SANDHSYD_CC1 failed to provide adequate PFR during 13 of 20 measureable events during a 2011-12 study period and alleged that, during the study period, four failures occurred while SANDHSYD_CC1 was providing Responsive Reserve (RRS) and was therefore required to reserve capacity to provide PFR.
Commission Staff alleged that Austin Energy resource DECKER_DPG2 failed to provide adequate PFR during 1 of 8 measureable events during a 2011-12 study period and that, during the study period, one failure occurred while DECKER_DPG2 was providing RRS and was therefore required to reserve capacity to provide PFR.
