1 PCI Outage Management Northeast Markets (PJM, ISO-NE, NYISO)

2 Overview PCI Asset Operations Suite Benefits Features Events & Types Demo scenarios Wrap up Q&A 2

3 PCI Asset Asset Operations Operations Suite Consistent process to track plant conditions and capture changes 3 Improve communication Reduce duplicative recording Increase consistency Standardize processes Alert / warn on: - Deviations - Data-not-provided-by-deadline Audit data entry, approval and submittal

4 PCI Asset Operations - Module Overview Module Outage Management Journal Plant Instructions Purpose Capture and manage events impacting unit availability Logging Application. Automated journal logging for operations, plants, and other departments Workflow Messaging between Dispatchers and Plant Controllers Plant Interface Allow plants to declare unit limits, ramp rates and other characteristics as well as view DA schedules and (backup) dispatch instructions GADS Used to manage Generating Availability Data Systems (GADS) event lifecycle, including outages, derates, reserve shutdowns, and metrics Energy Scheduling Automate declaration and ISO Self-Scheduling of Qualifying Facilities (QF) and Must-Take Resource Contracts 4

5 Outage Management Needs and Requirements Management of the entire outage lifecycle process, from the plant to outage coordinator/dispatcher (outage, de-rate entry, update, approval and notifications) Allow users to easily record operating events for anytime access and auditing Seamlessly connects to any third-party systems to share approved outage data within your enterprise Interface with NERC egads Compliance with ISO and NERC data entry requirements Reduce redundancy of data entry 5

6 Outage Management - Features 6 Log Generations and Transmission Outages - Record all aspects of an event - Audit trail records who modified the data and when - Revision history allow review of outage history Submit Outages to ISOs - Including PJM (rel. 2013), ISO-NE (rel. 2015), NYISO (2016) - Query/Synchronize with ISO/RTO Implement Approval Process - Ex: Plants may submit to Generation Outage Coordinator - Ex: Outages may be re-routed to different desks depending on whether they are Planned or Forced Events - Generation Outage Co-Ordinate may submit to BA, BA may review, approve, and submit to CAISO - Other Automation Processes: - Create Ambient Derates based on Weather Forecasts - Automatically log PSS/AVR based on EMS/GMS event - Issue s or sms alerts to registered parties on events

7 Outage Management - Features (continued) 7 GenPortal Integration - Resource Availability Automatically integrated into other GSMS Systems: - Calculation of Offers / Balancing Positions - Net Position Reports - GenTrader / Unit C commitment Studies - Bid Evaluator Analytics - Post-Analysis / Outage Costing Analytics - Real-Time Pricing Tools - Open API s for retrieval of outage and availability data to 3rd party systems GenPortal Security - Role-based security limits who has read, write, authorize, and submit permissions - Security also managed by Resource: - Plants can only see data for their plant / unit - Marketers, Generation Operators have no access to Transmission data
