Calpine would pay $30,000 under a settlement with Staff of the Public Utility Commission of Texas to resolve Staff's allegations that Calpine violated ERCOT Protocols §§ 6.4.4.1 and 6.4.6(1), related to Energy Offer Curve for RUC-Committed Resources and Accurate Telemetry.

Staff generally alleges various instances in which Calpine failed to update its Current Operating Plan (COP) to reflect various resources' status regarding RUC, and also an alleged instance where a Calpine unit (CTL_CC1_7) failed to price energy from LSL to HSL at or above $1,500 per MWh

Staff alleged that certain of Calpine's behavior carried, "significant market impacts," and Staff specifically alleged that the dispatch of CTL_CC1_7 above its respective LSL due to the alleged improper pricing of its energy offer curve impacted the dispatch of other resources and real-time market settlement prices.
