Duke Energy Carolinas-Progress Alignment Joint OATT Attachment T
In Cargill Power Mkts., LLC v. Pub. Serv. Co. of New Mexico, 132 FERC ¶ 61,079 (2010), the Commission indicated that the types of transmission services a utility offers should be clearly and accurately set forth in its OATT, particularly if not every service described by the NAESB standards is provided. Although Duke Energy is not aware of any confusion existing as to which products its various operating companies under the Joint OATT sell, for clarity, it is providing the information on the services offered.

Duke Energy Carolinas-Progress Alignment OASIS Business Practices
The ultimate goal is for the customer to have the same experience on both systems Align practices in DEC, DEP and DEF for consistency
Reduce or eliminate differences in business practice language Reorganization of business practices to make it easier to find specific business practices Starting with DEC practices as a starting point and modifying to meet alignment needs Some differences cannot be eliminated
Three levels of alignment Organizational – easily implemented Functional – issues that require back-office changes Regulatory – cannot be changed without filing with FERC
Targeting release of Organizational changes and easily implemented Functional changes prior to next Stakeholder meeting Release additional Functional and Regulatory changes upon resolution of hold-ups. Next phase will seek alignment in implementation of NAESB WEQ-003 Business Practice Standards
Duke Energy Carolinas-Progress Alignment OASIS Business Practices
Examples of business practice alignment changes Organizational
Changes to layout of the business practices List of PTP products offered All three zones will use the same forms for Designation of Network Resource , Undesignation of Network Resource and Annulment Request All three zones will offer Supplemental OASIS Notification
Functional PTP Request Submittal Timing NITS Request Submittal Timing Billing of Firm Redirects Conditional Firm Service processing
Regulatory Treatment of Simultaneous Submission Window (tied to request submittal timing – where a “no earlier than” requirement has been established)

NAESB Update FERC NOPR (RM05-5-022) (link)
FERC proposed to adopt WEQ Version 3.0 Business Practice Standards. Comments were due September 24. 10 sets of comments were submitted. Duke Energy comments
• Allow 18-month development period and permit an additional 6 months for customer testing and system updates for business practice standards associated with service across multiple transmission systems (“SAMTS”) and network integration transmission service (“NITS”).
• Standard WEQ-001-106.2.5 is to permit transmission providers to deny termination of scheduled (tagged) capacity associated with a reservation for Secondary Network Service FERC should incorporate this standard.
• Transmission providers should be permitted to take longer than one day to post an ATC narrative.
• The Commission should not incorporate by reference Standard WEQ-019. • The NAESB Version 003 standards do not reflect the guidance provided by
the Commission in the Entergy case. Duke Energy pointed out NAESB standards in Version 003 that appear to conflict with the Entergy guidance.
See Appendix C for more information on this FERC NOPR.

Business Practices Subcommittee Parallel Flow Visualization (PFV) for Eastern Interconnect
Near real-time generator output is to be reported to the IDC
Balancing Authority selects one of the following data input methods for assigning transmission capacity to generator output (NAESB requirement)
• Tag all Non-Firm Intra-BA transactions
• Upload to the IDC the use of all Intra-BA transmission service for each running generator every 15 minutes
The IDC will use Interchange Tags (Inter-BA) and the new transmission capacity information (Intra-BA) to implement the curtailment process.

NAESB Update Wholesale Electric Quadrant
OASIS Subcommittee Preemption and Competition Rules for granting transmission service to higher priority requests (challenger)
through displacement of service to lower priority requests (defenders) in accordance with tariff requirements.
Concepts likely to be incorporated: A request must be pre-confimed to be considered a valid challenger.
No competition if only partial capacity could be granted to the challenger.
Right-of-First Refusal The Transmission Provider will identify a valid Matching request when
notifying a customer of Right-of-First-Refusal. The customer may submit a different Matching request, but will be refused if insufficient capacity is available for the modified request.
MATCHING requests will modify the defender’s reservation rather than replace the current reservation.
MATCHING requests must be pre-confirmed. Only one round of competition will be initiated for a given challenger.

NAESB Update
NERC MOD-A Coordination
NERC MOD-A proposes to streamline into one reliability standard (MOD-A) parts of MOD-001, MOD-004, MOD-008, MOD-028, MOD-029, and MOD-030 and recommends retiring those standards.
NAESB, at NERC’s request, is not participating in the MOD-A standard development process.
There is no NERC/NAESB coordination of standards development at this time.
NERC will submit to NAESB requests for standards development as they deem appropriate. NAESB will incorporate it’s standard triage process for incorporating the standards.
NERC and NAESB may coordinate filings when NERC is ready to file with FERC.

NAESB Update
FERC NOPR (RM05-5-022)
Revisions to OASIS Standards Made to Comply with Order No. 890 Objectives and Requirements (WEQ-000, WEQ-001, WEQ-002, WEQ-003, WEQ-013)
1. Service Across Multiple Transmission Systems (SAMTS) – permits a customer to wait until all TPs have responded (accept, counteroffer, etc) to a group of requests on multiple transmission systems before making a commitment (confirm, withdraw, etc). Paragraph 20
2. Network Integration Transmission Service (NITS) – added new practices and templates to put NITS application, including designation and Undesignation of DNRs, on OASIS PP21-23 [NOTE: in P23, FERC requests comment on the purpose of Standard WEQ-001-106.2.5, which appears to contemplate a Transmission Provider refusing a request to terminate a secondary network service, and on whether FERC should incorporate this standard by reference.]
3. Rollover Rights for Redirects – improved functionality of the rollover rights template PP24-25
4. Redirect Requests and Available Transfer Capacity (ATC) Credit – study of a firm redirect request will assume capacity is removed from the parent reservation (i.e., not double-counted) P26
5. OASIS Introduction and Applicability Sections – clean-up items without impact on business requirements P27
NAESB Update
FERC NOPR (RM05-5-022) Revisions to OASIS Standards Not Related to Order No. 890 Objectives and Requirements 1. Removal of reference to the standards of conduct related OASIS posting
obligations (WEQ-001, WEQ-002, WEQ-013) P29 2. Modifications to NAESB WEQ-001-14.1.3 and WEQ-001-15.1.2 (both
related to ATC Narrative) --- p30: We invite comments on the necessity for taking longer than one day to post the ATC narrative. P30 [NOTE: FERC is concerned that the proposed five-business day requirement does not meet FERC’s requirement to post the ATC narrative as soon as feasible.]
3. Minor modifications to standards WEQ-013-2.6.8.1 and WEQ-013-2.6.8.2 to clarify that the listings of service types therein constitute examples and are not definitive. P31
NAESB Update
FERC NOPR (RM05-5-022)
Other Standards 1. Coordinate Interchange Standards (WEQ-004) – make standards consistent with
current Electronic Tagging Functional specifications (now maintained by NAESB) as well as to incorporate a guideline standardizing the rounding of partial megawatt hours schedules P32
2. Gas/Electric Coordination Standard (WEQ-011) -- modifications to eliminate inconsistencies between definitions used by the NAESB quadrants as well as the NERC Glossary P33
3. Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) Standards (WEQ-012) -- Standard WEQ-012 specifies those transactions for which public utilities need to use PKI. The WEQ-012 standards specify the minimum authentication requirements that end entities must meet when conducting transactions under NAESB Business Practice Standards defined in Standards WEQ-000, WEQ-001, WEQ-002, WEQ-003, WEQ-004 and WEQ-013. This includes the use of PKI in communicating with the Electric Industry Registry (EIR) of commercial transaction information useful for electronic tagging PP34-39
4. Smart Grid Standards (WEQ-016, WEQ-017, WEQ-018, WEQ-019, WEQ-020) -- The NAESB WEQ Version 003 Business Practice Standards include five wholesale business practice standards related to Smart Grid that define use cases, data requirements, and a common model to represent customer energy usage P40-41 [NOTE: FERC invites comment on whether it should incorporate by reference the version of Standard WEQ-019 (Customer Energy Usage Information Communication) ratified by NAESB membership on March 21, 2013, rather than the version contained in Version 003.]
NAESB Update
FERC NOPR (RM05-5-022) Footnote 35 (P 25)
25. In the Version 003 standards, NAESB modified WEQ-001-9.7 so that it would conform to the Commission’s policy granting rollover rights to requests for redirect on a firm basis.35 NAESB modified the WEQ-001-9 Business Practice Standards and modified the definition of Unexercised Rollover Rights and added a definition for Capacity Eligible for Rollover to make the NAESB standards consistent with the Commission’s regulations. NAESB also made relevant modifications to standards WEQ-001, WEQ-002 and WEQ-013 and provided examples for the conveyance of rollover rights with a redirect on a firm basis provided in Appendix B of the WEQ-001 standards.
35As we stated in Entergy Services, Inc., 143 FERC ¶ 61,143, at P 25 & n.68 (2013), our guiding precedent on the issue of when a customer requesting redirect loses rights on the original path was set in Dynegy Power Marketing, Inc., 99 FERC ¶ 61,054, at P 9 (2002), where we held that a transmission customer receiving firm transmission service does not lose its rights to its original path until the redirect request satisfies all of the following criteria: (1) it is accepted by the transmission provider; (2) it is confirmed by the transmission customer; and (3) it passes the conditional reservation deadline under OATT section 13.2.
