In where a large quantity of Generation may be energy-constrained or use-limited, achieving reliability may also require that the Energy available to the area is at least equal to the customer Demand and some reserve requirement during peak operating periods. Moreover, while ownership of Generating Units varies, sufficient capacity in conjunction with Demand response must be available to the electric system or its customers to provide an adequate resource supply. Because of the reasonably long lead-time to construct new Generating Facilities, it is prudent to assess whether a region or sub-region has met its resource adequacy criterion or requirement over a period of two to three years or more into the future. Annual and Monthly Reporting Requirements Sections 40.2.2.4 and 40.2.3.4 of the ISO Tariff govern the obligation of Scheduling Coordinators for Load Serving Entities scheduling Demand in the ISO Control Area to submit annual and monthly Resource Adequacy Plans to the ISO. The format and schedule for Resource Adequacy Plan submittals is described in of this BPM. Section 40.4.7 of the ISO Tariff requires Scheduling Coordinators for Resource Adequacy Resources to submit annual and monthly Supply Plans confirming a resource’s status as a Resource Adequacy Resource and its willingness to provide Resource Adequacy Capacity. The format and schedule for Supply Plan submittals is described in of this BPM. An overview of the annual and monthly reporting requirements is in Exhibit 2-1.
