3.2.5.3 Unregistered Distributed Generation Reporting Requirements for ERCOT (1) Within 30 days after the end of each quarter, ERCOT shall publish the unregistered DG report on the MIS Public Area. This report shall include the aggregated data compiled for NOIE and competitive areas. This report shall include the total unregistered DG MW capacity, as provided in accordance with Section 3.2.5.1, Unregistered Distributed Generation Reporting Requirements for Non Opt-In Entities, and Section 3.2.5.2, Unregistered Distributed Generation Reporting Requirements for Competitive Areas, above, by Load Zone and by primary fuel type as follows: (a) Solar; (b) Wind; (c) Other renewable; and (d) Other non-renewable. (2) ERCOT shall update the appropriate TAC subcommittee on an as needed basis on the unregistered DG report. 3.2.6 ERCOT Planning Reserve Margin (1) ERCOT shall calculate the Planning Reserve Margin (PRM) for each Peak Load Season as follows: PRM = (TOTCAP s, FIRMPKLD s, / FIRMPKLD s, s, i i i) i – The above variables are defined as follows: Variable Unit Definition PRM % Planning Reserve Margin for the Peak Load s, i Planning Reserve Margin—The Season for year s i. TOTCAP MW Capacity available during the Peak Load Season for the s, i Total Capacity—Total s year i. FIRMPKLD MW Peak Load for the Peak Load Season for the year s, i Firm Peak Load—Firm s i. None Year. i None Peak Load Season. s 3.2.6.1 Minimum ERCOT Planning Reserve Margin Criterion (1) The minimum ERCOT PRM criterion is approved by the ERCOT Board. ERCOT shall periodically review and recommend to the ERCOT Board any changes to the minimum ERCOT PRM to help ensure adequate reliability of the ERCOT System. ERCOT shall update the minimum PRM on the first day of the month following ERCOT Board approval unless otherwise directed by the ERCOT Board. ERCOT shall post the revised minimum PRM to the ERCOT website prior to implementation.
