Parallel Operations Objectives
7
• Process – How is this different from SMT
• Explain Integrated Deployment Testing
• Expectations
• Timelines
• Metrics
• Roles
• Expected Outcome
• Communication Plan
The Goal of Parallel Operations• Exercise all SPP systems with full use of all policies and
procedures as developed and tested during earlier phases of Market Trials.
• During the Integrated Deployment Tests (IDTs) the Real-Time systems focus on verifying the ability of SPP to maintain Area Control Error (ACE), to meet CPS1 and CPS2 standards, with all MPs and all available Resources being dispatched by the Integrated Marketplace.
9
Parallel Operations Processes• Every day of the week is an “Official Operating Day”.
• DA, RUC, RTBM, RTGEN, & Settlements run daily.
• Seven scenarios not tested in SMT will be executed in Parallel Operations:– Scenario #7 - Must Offer
– Scenario #13 - DDR with Settlements
– Scenario #24 - Repricing (Part 2) with Study MCE
– Scenario #28 - NFT with CMS
– Scenario #29 - Reserve Sharing Group
– Scenario #31 - BDR with Settlements
– Grandfathered Agreements carve-out
10
Parallel Operations Processes• All critical systems will be live and running in parallel with EIS
systems.
• The EIS Market will continue to determine the Resources’ actual Dispatch Instructions and serve as the basis for all Settlements.
• Integrated Marketplace Setpoint Instructions will be sent to Market Participants for information only purposes.
• Offer Curves should continue to be consistent with EIS costs, and all submission items should continue to reflect EIS systems in such a way that same amounts of generation to be dispatched and same active transmission constraints are reflected in both systems.
11
Parallel Operations Outcomes/Exit Criteria• Successful completion of Parallel Operations must
demonstrate the robustness of the Integrated Marketplace software, processes, and systems, both from a technical and commercial perspective including the ability of SPP to reliably maintain ACE for the SPP Balancing Authority footprint within Compliance Standards.– Successful completion of Deployment Tests.
– Successful execution of Integrated Marketplace Bid toBill functionality consistently for 7 consecutive Operating Days according to protocol timelines.
12
Parallel Operations is not Integrated Deployment Testing• The requirements to start Parallel Operations is
decoupled from IDT– IDT may start without Parallel Operations
– Parallel Operations may start without IDT
• The current timeline includes IDTs as specific tests within the Parallel Operations Market Trials testing sub-stage
13
Changes from SMT to Parallel Operations• Communications
– Hotline will be used during the first 2 weeks of Parallel Operations (11/12 – 11/27).
– Hotline process ends on 11/27; no weekend or Holiday coverage.
• Additional Communications channels (Starting 11-12)– For Real-Time Operational issues.
Contact SPP Operations Desk (24x7).
– For Questions, Inquiries, Requests, etc.: Submit an RMS with your issue, inquiry or request (24x7).
Contact your SPP Customer Relations Representative by phone or email (8 AM – 5 PM CDT).
14
Changes from SMT to Parallel Operations• Logistics
– Parallel Operations will operate from Maumelle in November.
– Resource planning will look similar to SMT.
– First 2 IDTs will be performed from Maumelle and are tentatively scheduled to run from 9:30-11:30 am on 11/19 and 11/21.
– All appropriate access, systems should be tested and support staff engaged for the IDTs.
– Staffing to support all IDTs.
– Move to ODC beginning of December.
15
Changes from SMT to Parallel Operations • Tracking Mechanisms
– RMS reports will continue throughout Parallel Operations.
– Known Issues Log continue.
– Release Scorecard will continue to be updated until everything is operational for Go-Live.
– Scenario Tracker continues.
16
Changes from SMT to Parallel Operations• Weekly Meetings
– External Meetings – Additional meetings will be held for Deployment Tests. Current weekly schedule will remain in place for November/December, possibly phasing out in January.
– Phase out the weekly calls’ overview of the previous OD. Focus instead on anomalies, defects, IDTs, & Parallel Operations scenarios only. Single thorough weekly meeting.
– One registration for all meetings, continue using SMT bridge/ WebEx.
• Participation Report
– Readiness metrics will be the same list of SMT reports
17
Changes from SMT to Parallel Operations• Daily Calendar
– Current 3 month calendar will be supplemented with a 3 week look ahead to provide a thorough, single member-facing calendar.
– Plan for 1st 3 week release October 22 (3 weeks prior to November 12).
• RMS – Quick picks will be revised.
– New CPOCs will be defined and trained by 11/1/13.
• External email distribution lists – Phased out in December.
18
Changes from SMT to Parallel Operations• Processes for Analysis of Statistics
– Analysis for Deployment Tests.
– Reviewing current metrics lists.
• Integrated Deployment Tests (IDT)– 15 separate tests planned, each will have its own
checklist/plan.
– Communication line opens 1 hour before test. Requires two conference bridge lines. During IDT, we will have
the ‘walled’ MP-side and the ‘non-walled’ Reliability side in separate rooms.

Structured Market Trials Parallel Operations Go-Live
Production Support Process
Parallel OperationsSupport Process
SMT Support Process
Interim Support Process
• MP’s contact SPP through RMS or Hotline.
• Customer Relations routes RMS tickets to Workstreams.
• Defects are tracked in SILK.
• MP’s contact Real-Time Operations or for Non Real-Time issues contact Customer Relations or log issues directly into RMS by selecting the appropriate CPOC.
• If Customer Relations is contacted they will route RMS tickets to appropriate CPOCs (Departments, Desks, IT, etc).
• System defects will continue to be tracked in SILKCentral. Remedy will continue to track Change Requests and emergency fixes.
• Same as Parallel Operations Support Processes.
• Market Trials Hotline will continue to be operational.
• Hotline will address issues or reroute as appropriate while transitioning to Parallel Operations Support.
Changes from SMT to Parallel Operations IT Support Processes
Transition from SMT -> Parallel Operations• How 24x7 operations will work:
– 18 operators available to run 24x7 – performing all key IM processes – Balancing Coordinator, Reliability Unit Commitment, & Real-time Balancing Market; Day-Ahead will be staffed at Go-Live levels.
– Weekday 8 AM to 5 PM window, operators and coordinators available to assist/interact with MPs to simulate production.
– Less than a full host of operators in place to cover all functions in the “off peak” hours/weekends (specifically scheduling, Tariff and Gen Dispatch). Issue resolution for these functions may require a slower response time during
these hours.
– The main focus during that time will be to maintain the systems and continue to test/work through our processes and procedures.
– During the IDTs, every function supported by multiple operators, engineers and other operations staff.
21

Market Participant Activities cont’d
• During Parallel Operations RTBM submissions need to be in closer tolerance then during SMT.– Update a unit’s min/max capacity if it changes by >10% or 5
MW, whichever is greater (for SMT it was >20% or 10 MW).
– Update a unit’s offer curve if it changes by >10% or $2 per 5 MWs, whichever is greater (for SMT it was >20%).
29
Deployment Test Purpose
• These tests will be the first time the entire footprint will follow SPP Integrated Marketplace Setpoint Instructions.
• EIS BA’s AGC system should still be able to calculate ACE, CPS1, and CPS2 during the Deployment Tests, but not adjust any Setpoints to control for the EIS BA’s ACE.
• All EIS BAs have received waivers from SPP RE and MRO. – CPS1/CPS2 violations waived with the requirement of the BA’s
to maintain logs of start/stop times.
• A mock Deployment Test will be planned for the week prior to the 1st scheduled IDT – Tentatively set for 11/14/13.
31
Deployment Test Purpose
32
• Verify that SPP can transmit proper AGC signals to Resources and that the EIS BAs within the SPP footprint can receive the new information.
• Verify SPP can calculate a single ACE and respond to it appropriately.
• Verify that Resources respond to AGC signals received from SPP.• Verify that Resources can respond to a Congestion Management
Event (CME/TLR).• Verify that AGC is correctly biased in response to a Reserve
Sharing System event (RSS/CRD).• Verify that SPP and Resources can respond to a Contingency
Reserve Deployment (CRD).
Deployment Test Processes
33
During the Integrated Deployment Test:
•EIS and Integrated Marketplace systems will continue to operate in parallel.
•Resources will be switched from EIS to Integrated Marketplace and back.
•RTBM will provide Base Points and manage congestion.
•AGC will maintain ACE, provide Regulation dispatch instructions and dispatch Contingency Reserves (including Supplemental) during RSS events.
•The Market will settle based on EIS dispatch.– Uninstructed deviation penalties will be waived for a period before,
during, and after the Deployment Tests.
Deployment Test Processes
34
During the Integrated Deployment Test:
•Schedules will be mirrored from EIS production and convert the LCA/GCA for internal Balancing Authorities to an SPP CBA for calculating NSI for use in RTBM and AGC.
•No tags should be input by Market Participants for the period during the Integrated Deployment Test.
•Integrated Deployment Tests will be scheduled to ramp in/out at the bottom of the hour to minimize the impacts of transactions ramping at the top of the hour.
Deployment Test Processes
• Timing of tests will be designed so SPP can test for operational control in various conditions throughout the day:– Demonstrate AGC operation during extended heavy load pick
up during morning period.
– Demonstrate AGC operation during an evening load pick up period.
– Demonstrate crossing midnight period and operational continuation between days.
– A daily calendar has been developed with specific dates and times for the tests.

Integrated Deployment Test Go Criteria
• If at any point in the IDT communication plan, a Resource owning MP deems it is not capable of participating and that MP’s Resources are scheduled to be online, SPP shall consider cancelling the IDT.
– This will be case-by-case.
– EIS-BA MPs must 100% be ready for each IDT.
42
Deployment Tests: Unit Commitment
43
• Unit Commitment will continue to be managed by the existing Balancing Authorities. Important all normal EIS functions occur in parallel with Integrated Marketplace during Deployment Tests.
• RTBM does not require RUC systems to operate to produce Base Points. RTBM will use Resource’s metered MW, telemetered Control Mode, CROW outage information and RTBM offer parameters for dispatch during Deployment Tests.
• When Resources are online, coming online or going offline in EIS, MPs must update RTBM offer, telemetered Control Mode, and Commitment status to “Self” in the Integrated Marketplace. Otherwise, RTBM may not be able to dispatch them accordingly.
– All online Resources must have a valid commitment status in the Current Operating Plan (COP) in order to be eligible for dispatch by RTBM.
– MPs can offer a commitment status of “Self” for all online resources.
Deployment Tests: Unit Commitment
44
• Note that the Integrated Marketplace will NOT be the basis for Unit Commitment.
• The SPP Integrated Marketplace tariff doesn’t take effect until 03/01/14 and SPP cannot be responsible for Unit Commitment until then.
• Therefore, following the DA RUC, SPP will perform a COP True-Up to essentially substitute EIS BA’s unit commitment plans for the results of the DA RUC.
Deployment Tests: COP True-up
45
• Allows the RTBM to dispatch resources based on real-time (EIS) operating conditions.
• If Resources are online in EIS and not in the COP, they are unable to be dispatched economically by RTBM.
– Output will be echoed.– Not eligible to clear reserves.
• After the DA RUC run, SPP checks the EIS Resource Plan statuses for the OD to identify Resources with conflicting status with the COP.
• SPP uses the ID-RUC to commit or de-commit resources that have a conflicting EIS status with the COP.
– If the resource has a EIS status of “Unavailable” and is committed in the COP, it will be de-committed by the ID-RUC.
• Process repeats at least 2 hours a day from 8am-4pm during supported ODs.– During unsupported days, the COP True-Up runs once a day.
Deployment Tests: Energy Offers
46
In order to minimize differences between RTBM Dispatch Instructions and EIS Market Dispatch Instructions:
•Resource Offers should be consistent with operational parameters submitted in the EIS Market Resource Plans and the Energy Offer curves submitted for use in the EIS Market.
•Regulation Ramp Rate curves and Contingency Reserve Ramp Rate curves should be set equal to the Ramp Rate Curve submitted in for use in the Up direction in the EIS Market.
Deployment Tests: Regulation Deployment
47
• Regulation will be deployed by the Integrated Marketplace during Deployment Tests.
– All Regulation Resources should have been self verified or tested by SPP during Structured Market Trials.
• All Resources scheduled to provide Regulation during the Deployment Test window in EIS should self schedule those Resources in Integrated Marketplace for Regulation for both up and down regulation.
– Regulation dispatch status “Fixed”.
– Fixed amount should be equal to capability of the Resource.
– Offer price of $0/MW.
– All other Resources eligible to provide regulation should offer in with a status of “Market” with an appropriate $/MW offer.
Deployment Test: Contingency Reserve Deployment
48
• Contingency Reserve Deployment will be deployed by the Integrated Marketplace during Deployment Tests.
• All Resources scheduled to provide contingency reserves during the Deployment Test window in EIS Ancillary Services Resource plans should self schedule those Resources in Integrated Marketplace for contingency reserves.
– Spinning dispatch status “Fixed” at specified MW amount with $0/MW offer.– On-Line dispatch status “Fixed” at specified MW amount with $0/MW offer.– Off-line dispatch status “Fixed” at specified MW amount with $0/MW offer.– All other Resources eligible to provide spinning and/or supplemental
reserves should offer in with a status of “Market” with an appropriate $/MW offer.
• Any event that would trigger a reserve sharing event will be entered into the EIS RSS as well as the Integrated Marketplace RSS.

Telemetered Control Mode
56
It is critical the Resource submit correct Telemetered Control Mode.–All Resources on outage for off-line should submit a Telemetered Control Mode equal of “0”.
–All Resources capable of providing contingency reserves, online and are dispatchable should provide a telemetered Control Mode of “1” if they are not qualified to provide regulation.
–All Resources capable of providing regulation, online and are dispatchable should provide a telemetered Control Mode of “2”.
–All Resources that are coming on-line, going off-line or otherwise not able to follow dispatch instructions should provide a telemetered Control Mode of “3”.
What is a Resource Control Mode?
•Resource Control Mode is a signal sent to SPP via ICCP for each Resource Asset.
•Resource Control Mode is also referred to as ICCP System Control Mode (CMOD).

Deployment Test Communications
61
• Market Communication the Friday before the test is scheduled as a reminder to the upcoming test.
• SPP will host a one-hour conference call the day prior to each scheduled Integrated Deployment Test to review the sequence of events during the testing period and to address any Market Participant concerns.
• A conference call will established one hour prior to the Integrated Deployment Test and continue until all ramp out activities are complete.
Deployment Test Success Criteria
• No CPS 1, 2, or DCS violation (calculated at SPP BA level and is a ‘what if’ calculation since there are waivers).
• Minimum Eastern Interconnection hourly inadvertent; develop a number +/- based on that particular month (for example, EIS accumulate 100 MW a week in November for a consistent metric applied to the specified IDT timeframe).
• Reasonable congestion pricing, dispatch, & response.
• Reasonable ramping pricing.
• Zero IROL & SOL violations.
62
Deployment Test Success Criteria
• All Resources respond correctly to Integrated Marketplace Setpoint instructions.
• STLF accuracy carried over from SMT/Parallel Operations.
• Availability metrics for RTBM, CHMFC, NHMFC, & Pre-RTBM as applicable for the IDT duration.
• EMS metrics carried over from SMT/Parallel Operations (MW mismatch to be at production-levels; i.e. 25 MW for Market, 45 MW for external).
• All anomalies explained on a weekly basis (similar to SMT & Parallel Operations requirement).
