The purpose of this document is to capture the requirements and design specification for a Charge Code in one document.

2.Introduction

2.1Background

The CAISO shall invoice all Scheduling Coordinators (SCs) for NERC/WECC charges that are invoiced to the CAISO by the WECC on behalf of itself, NERC, and/or regional advisory bodies that serve the WECC. Each SC shall be obligated to pay the CAISO all of the NERC/WECC Charges it is invoiced by the CAISO in accordance with the applicable provisions of the ISO tariff. Each SC’s responsibility for NERC/WECC Charges is based on its calculated NERC/WECC Metered Demand.

NERC/WECC charges are FERC approved amounts that provide funding for the statutory-related functions performed by the NERC, the WECC, and regional advisory bodies that serve the WECC or their successors or assignees.

2.2Description

NERC/WECC Charge is charged to participants through Pass Through Bill charge code 6490.

NERC/WECC Charge Assessment Year is defined as a given year for which NERC/WECC Charges will be assessed by the WECC based on data from the calendar year two years prior to the year of the NERC/WECC Charge Assessment.

A preliminary charge is invoiced no later than August 31 of the year preceding the NERC/WECC Charge Assessment Year. Within 15 Business Days after receipt of the WECC invoice to the ISO setting forth the assessment for the NERC/WECC Charges for the NERC/WECC Charge Assessment Year, the ISO will issue a final invoice or charge for the NERC/WECC Charge Assessment Year to Scheduling Coordinators.

The Preliminary NERC/WECC Chargeamount will reflect the product of each SC’s NERC/WECC Metered Demand for the calendar year two years prior to the NERC/WECC Charge Assessment Year and the previous year’s Final NERC WECC charge rate. The final amount for each SC will reflect the product of NERC/WECC Metered Demand specified above and the Final NERC/WECC Charge Rate for the NERC/WECC Charge Assessment Year.

An SC’s NERC/WECC Metered Demand is considered a Business Associate’s (BA) net metered CAISO Demand plus Unaccounted for Energy for net metered CAISO Demand and Transmission Losses for Metered CAISO demand. A BA’s net metered CAISO Demand equals the BA’s metered CAISO Demand, less metered CAISO Demand for Station Power and for Energy required for storage at electrical energy storage facilities, such as pumped storage. For purposes of calculating NERC/WECC Metered Demand, Unaccounted for Energy and Transmission Losses allocable to net metered CAISO Demand will be allocated pro rata to each BA based on the BAs net metered CAISO Demand.

For the purpose of Settlements implementation, the preliminary charge mentioned in the Tariff shall be reflected inan initial statement, while the final charge mentioned in the Tariff shall be reflected in arecalculation statement in Settlements.

The NERC/WECC Charges (either from an initial statement or recalculation statement) shall be invoiced using a NERC/WECC invoice type that is separate from the Market invoice type.

Additional processing rules associated with settlement and invoicing for NERC/WECC Charges are defined in the main body of the BPM for Settlement & Billing.

3.Charge Code Requirements

3.1Business Rules

Bus Req ID / Business Rule
1.0 / NERC/WECC Charge (CC 6490) is an annual charge code.
1.1 / The CAISO will issue the NERC/WECC Charge-related charge statements, and invoices separately from the regular market statements and invoices.
2.0 / The NERC/WECC Charges allocated to a Scheduling Coordinator are the product of the SC’s pro-rata share of NERC/WECC Metered Demand and the applicable NERC/WECC Charge Rate.
3.0 / NERC/WECC Charge Assessment Year is defined as a given year for which NERC/WECC Charges will be assessed by the WECC based on data from the calendar year two years prior to the year of the NERC/WECC Charge Assessment.
4.0 / The CAISO will issue a Market Notice setting forth the total of SCs NERC/WECC Metered Demand for the calendar year two years prior to the NERC/WECC Charge Assessment Year. On or after the Market Notice date, the CAISO will notify each Scheduling Coordinator in writing of the Scheduling Coordinator’s NERC/WECC Metered Demand for the calendar year two years prior to the NERC/WECC Charge Assessment Year.
4.1 / For Settlements implementation, the NERC/WECC Metered Demand value per Scheduling Coordinator (as identified by its Business Associate ID) shall be provided via a CD up through calendar year 2012 for Assessment Year 2013..
4.2 / Beginning in calendar year 2013 (Assessment Year 2014), the NERC/WECC Metered Demand value per Scheduling Coordinator (as identified by its Business Associate ID) shall be provided on all market recalculation statements as well as the NERC/WECC Information Statement, the NERC/WECC Initial Statement, and the NERC/WECC Recalculation Statement.
4.2.1 / The NERC/WECC Metered Demand quantities included in the NERC/WECC Information Statement are based on the most current meter data available to the CAISO at the time the Information Statement is generated.
4.23 / Scheduling Coordinators have sixty (60) calendar days to raise any disputes regarding the ISO’s calculation of the SC’s NERC/WECC Metered Demand for the calendar year two years prior to the NERC/WECC Charge Assessment Year as it appears on the NERC/WECC Information Statement..
5.0 / The CAISO will report to the WECC the total of all Scheduling Coordinators’ NERC/WECC Metered Demand for the calendar year two years prior to the NERC/WECC Charge Assessment Year, including any adjustments to the calculation of NERC/WECC Metered Demand for that year made by the CAISO in response to disputes raised by Scheduling Coordinators or adjustments approved by WECC.

3.6CAISO Formula

3.6.1The CAISO formula for BusinessAssociateNERCWECC Charge Allocation Amount by BA ID B, Trading Month m, Trading Day d is as follows:

BusinessAssociateNERCWECCChargeAllocationAmount Bmd = PTBBusinessAssociateNERCWECCChargeAllocationAmt BJU’Umd

3.6.2The total CAISO NERC WECC Metered Demand Quantity basis is as follows:

CAISONERCWECCMeteredDemandQuantity md = PTBBusinessAssociateNERCWECCMeteredDemandQty BJU’Umd

3.6.1.1BusinessAssociateYearlyNERCWECCMeteredDemandQty BUU’d = BusinessAssociateMonthlyNERCWECCMeteredDemandQuantity Bm

NOTE: The BusinessAssociateYearlyNERCWECCMeteredDemandQty Bm is an output from a View where Settlements calculates the yearly summation of the monthly metered demand BusinessAssociateMonthlyNERCWECCMeteredDemandQuantity Bm and also adding the U and U’, the Bill period start date and the Bill period end date which are mapped to the first and the last date of the assessment year. (For example is the meter data is for 2010, the period start date will be January 1, 2010 and the period end date will be December 31, 2010). This will allow market participant to identify the trading year of the charge. The BusinessAssociateYearlyNERCWECCMeteredDemandQty BUU’d will be reported as input in the market participant bill determinant file. The statement date will be the first date of the assessment year.

3.6.1.2BusinessAssociateYearlyNERCWECCMeteredDemandQuantity BUU’d = BusinessAssociateYearlyNERCWECCMeteredDemandQty BUU’d
