About the 快活app官网 Tariff

What is the 快活app官网’s Transmission, Markets, and Services Tariff (快活app官网 tariff)?

The 快活app官网 operates under the 快活app官网. Transmission, Markets, and Services Tariff (快活app官网 tariff), which defines the rates, terms, and conditions for the transmission, market, and other services 快活app官网 provides, as approved by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC).
Section I of the 快活app官网 tariff contains general terms and conditions. Section II of the 快活app官网 tariff is the Open Access Transmission Tariff (OATT), which provides the rights for electric energy suppliers and describes their responsibilities and fees for accessing the region's transmission system to transport electricity throughout New England. The terms and conditions of the OATT provide for nondiscriminatory open-access transmission service over the New England transmission system.

In addition to defining the rules and responsibilities of the 快活app官网 and market participants, the tariff outlines various schedules for the revenues the 快活app官网 must collect for its operations and for compensating transmission owners for constructing and maintaining the transmission infrastructure controlled by the 快活app官网. The tariff also defines revenues for providing ancillary services, which are not provided through markets. The OATT addresses the collection and distribution of payments for the following transmission services:

• Schedule 1: Scheduling, System Control, and Dispatch Service—involves scheduling and administering the movement of power through, out of, or within the New England Balancing Authority Area. Under Schedule 1 of the OATT, the 快活app官网 charges transmission customers for accessing the transmission system and pays transmission owners for transporting electricity.
• Schedule 2: Reactive Supply and Voltage Control (VAR)—provides compensation for the provision of reactive power for maintaining transmission voltages within acceptable ranges. Schedule 2 also includes calculations for capacity costs.
• Schedule 8: Through or Out Service (TOUT)—includes transactions that go through the New England Balancing Authority Area or originate on a pool transmission facility (PTF) and flow over the PTF before passing out of the New England Balancing Authority Area. Transmission customers pay the PTF rate for the through service or out service reserved for them with respect to these transactions.
• Schedule 9: Regional Network Service (RNS)—is an 快活app官网 accounting service that allows network customers to efficiently and economically use their resources, internal bilateral transactions, and external transactions to serve their network loads located in the New England area.
• Schedule 16: Black-Start Service—provides compensation for black-start resources to facilitate a stable and orderly system restoration following a partial or complete shutdown of the New England transmission system.
• Schedule 19: Special-Constraint Resource (SCR) Service of the Open Access Transmission Tariff—includes the payments and charges for the out-of-merit commitment or operation of resources at the request of transmission owners or distribution companies to manage constraints not reflected in the 快活app官网 systems.

Section III of the 快活app官网 tariff is Market Rule 1, which governs the operation of New England’s wholesale electric power markets. Section IV of the 快活app官网 tariff addresses the 快活app官网’s funding mechanisms and capital funding arrangements, which control how the 快活app官网 collects funds to pay for administrative functions and certain capital acquisitions. This section contains rates, charges, terms, and conditions for the functions of the 快活app官网. These services are as follows:

• Schedule 1: Scheduling, System Control, and Dispatch Service—scheduling and administering the movement of power through, out of, or within the balancing authority area
• Schedule 2: Energy Administration Service (EAS)—charges for services the 快活app官网 provides to administer the energy markets
• Schedule 3: Reliability Administration Service (RAS)—charges for services the 快活app官网 provides to administer the reliability markets
• Schedule 5: Collection of the New England States Committee on Electricity (NESCOE Budget)—serving as the billing and collection agent for the (NESCOE) for recovering the amounts reflected in the annual NESCOE budget through the rates set forth in this schedule.

Regional Network Service

What is regional network service?

Regional network service (RNS) is a transmission service offered under Schedule 9 of the OATT. Network customers purchase RNS to serve their regional network load in the New England Balancing Authority Area.

Reference: Open Access Transmission Tariff

Back to top

Who incurs a charge for regional network service addressed in Schedule 9 of the OATT?

Any customer with a monthly regional network load is charged for RNS per the OATT Schedule 9.

Back to top

How is the OATT’s regional network service charge determined and allocated?

A customer’s monthly charge equals its regional network load value, which the TO of the customer’s local network submits to the 快活app官网, multiplied by the RNS rate. The basis of the RNS rate is the TO’s annual revenue requirement for covering its costs of owning the pool transmission facilities (PTF). The allocation to the TOs of the RNS charges collected from regional network load customers is based on a TO’s share of the total revenue requirement.

The total monthly RNS bill also includes a charge for OATT Schedule 1 service. This charge recovers the scheduling, system control, and dispatch costs a TO incurs, and its distribution to the TOs is based on each TO’s share of these costs. Each customer’s network load value is multiplied by the OATT Schedule 1 rate to determine its monthly charge for this component of the RNS bill. OATT Schedule 1 rates are effective June 1 of each year.

Back to top

Does every network load customer pay the same rate for RNS?

Yes, all customers pay the same RNS rate regardless of the regional network load location.

Back to top

What documents include the details of the OATT’s regional network service and the Schedule 1 rates?

Section II.B and Schedule 9 of the OATT Include details of RNS. Schedule 1 of the OATT includes information on the rates.

Back to top

What does the 快活app官网 provide to RNS customers under Schedule 1 of the 快活app官网 Funding Mechanism?

The 快活app官网 provides the regional scheduling, system control, and dispatch services to transmission customers that purchase RNS. The rate for Schedule 1 service under the 快活app官网 Funding Mechanism is established each year, effective January 1.

Back to top

Who incurs a charge for RNS per Schedule 1 of the 快活app官网 Funding Mechanism?

All RNS customers pay for 快活app官网 Fund Mechanism Schedule 1 service each month. The charges for each customer are based on the customer’s monthly regional network load.

Through-or-Out (TOUT) Service

What is the OATT’s through-or-out service (TOUT)?

Through-or-out service is a transmission service offered under Schedule 8 of the 快活app官网 OATT. Transmission customers purchase TOUT service to move power through or from New England to another balancing authority area.

Back to top

Who incurs a charge for through-or-out service?

Transmission customers who have requested TOUT from 快活app官网 are charged for the service. TOUT charges are based on the megawatts of reserved transmission capacity, as submitted to the . OASIS is an electronic posting system that provides transmission customers with timely access to transmission information that enables them to obtain comparable, nondiscriminatory, open-access transmission service. Effective with the implementation of Coordinated Transaction Scheduling (CTS), coordinated external transactions (CET) are submitted using the Joint Energy Scheduling System (JESS) available on the New York 快活app官网 (NY快活app官网) website.

Back to top

How is the OATT through-or-out service charge determined and allocated?

The OATT’s TOUT charge equals a customer’s megawatts of reserved transmission capacity for each hourly TOUT purchase multiplied by the TOUT hourly rate. A customer’s total charge for the month equals the sum of the TOUT charges associated with all its transmission reservations. The TOUT revenues are distributed among the transmission owners.

Customers who purchase TOUT also pay for OATT Schedule 1 service. This TOUT Schedule 1 charge on the total monthly TOUT bill recovers the scheduling, system control, and dispatch costs the TOs incur. Its distribution to the TOs is pro rata, based on a TO’s share of these costs. A customer’s monthly charge for this component of the TOUT bill equals the customer’s megawatts of reserved transmission capacity for each hourly TOUT purchase multiplied by the OATT Schedule 1 rate, which is established June 1 each year.

The Schedule 1 TOUT charge equals the reserved capacity, for each hourly TOUT purchase, multiplied by the Schedule 1 hourly rate. A customer’s total charge for the month is the sum of the Schedule 1 charges associated with all its TOUT reservations. The total charges collected for the 快活app官网’s Schedule 1 TOUT service are allocated as credits to all regional network load customers on the basis of each one’s pro rata share of the total NEPOOL monthly regional network load.

Back to top

What documents contain details about the OATT’s through-or-out service and the Schedule 1 TOUT service?

Section II.C and Schedule 8 of the 快活app官网 OATT describes TOUT in detail; the OATT Schedule 1 rates. Also see the OATT Schedule 1 rate.

Back to top

What is the 快活app官网 Funding Mechanism Schedule 1 service charge for TOUT?

Schedule 1 of the 快活app官网 Funding Mechanism addresses the funding for scheduling the movement of power through, out of, within, or into of the New England Balancing Authority Area. This is the only portion of the 快活app官网 Funding Mechanism where the money collected is not for the 快活app官网. Per this schedule, the 快活app官网 charges transmission customers that have transmission reservations, except for those reservations associated with coordinated external transactions (CET), and it pays transmission customers with regional network load.

Schedule 1 of the 快活app官网 Funding Mechanisms contains information on the rates, which are effective January 1 of each year.

Voltage (VAR) Service

What is Schedule 2 of the OATT?

Schedule 2 of the OATT addresses reactive supply and voltage control (i.e., voltage-ampere reactive, or VAR) service from generation sources. The 快活app官网 operates generation facilities to produce or absorb reactive power, as necessary to maintain transmission voltages within acceptable limits. The 快活app官网 collects Schedule 2 charges to compensate generating facilities that provide this service each month.

Note that a resource committed by the 快活app官网 for VAR service in the day-ahead or real-time energy market that does not recover its effective offer is eligible for Net Commitment-Period Compensation (NCPC). NCPC VAR payments are calculated and reported in daily day-ahead and real-time settlements but are not included in the twice-weekly billing. Instead, the charge allocation for these payments is reported in the monthly VAR settlement; the credits and charges are billed in the monthly OATT Schedule 2 VAR line item. The NCPC and VAR reporting are described further in subsequent questions.

Back to top

Who incurs OATT Schedule 2 charges?

Any transmission customer who uses regional network service or through-or-out service during the month incurs this charge.

Back to top

How are payments for the OATT Schedule 2 determined?

Generating resources that provide reactive supply to the transmission system are compensated by different mechanisms, as applicable. The total OATT Schedule 2 payments for any month equals the sum of the following fixed and variable payments:

Fixed payments (VAR capacity payment details are available in the VAR Capacity Cost Payment Report, SD_VARCCPMT):

• Capacity payment—a $/kilovolt ampere reactive (kVAR)-year rate, subject to adjustment, as detailed in the tariff

Variable payments (VAR variable energy payment details are available in the day-ahead and real-time NCPC reports, including but not limited to the Day-Ahead Net Commitment-Period Compensation Payment Report, SD_DANCPCPYMT, and the Real-Time Net Commitment-Period Compensation Payment Report, SD_RTNCPCPYMTHR.

• Lost opportunity payment—compensation for backing down in-merit generation
• Cost of energy produced—compensation for running out-of-merit generation
• Cost of energy consumed—compensation for supplying electric energy to motor hydro generation

High-Voltage VAR Cost Reallocation, SS High-Voltage VAR (SS_HVVAR)—compensation for NCPC associated with dispatachable asset-related demand (DARD) pump

Back to top

How are charges allocated for Schedule 2 of the OATT?

The hourly determinant for each transmission customer equals the sum of the customer’s monthly regional network load plus the customer's through-or-out service reservation, except for those reservations associated with coordinated external transactions (CETs) for the hour. The hourly Schedule 2 charges are allocated to all transmission customers on the basis of the customer’s pro rata share of the total of the determinants. Hours flagged for high-voltage VAR support are charged to the reliability region supported. Allocation details are also in the Calculation Summary.

Additional information on 快活app官网 Funding Mechanism Schedule 2 (EAS) and Schedule 3 (RAS) charges

Will a day-ahead internal bilateral for load (IBL) accrue Schedule 2 (EAS) or Schedule 3 (RAS) charges?

There are no day-Ahead internal bilateral for load transactions. Market participants can enter into IBL transactions in the Real-Time Energy Market only.

IBL will incur Schedule 2 transactional unit charges for bilateral contract block hours. IBLs also incur Schedule 2 volumetric measure charges because it affects the real-time load obligation. IBLs may possibly incur a Schedule 3 charge if it coincides with non-coincidental peak load obligation.

Reference: Manual 28, Section 3.1.2

Back to top

Will a day-ahead internal bilateral for market (IBM) accrue Schedule 2 or Schedule 3 charges?

Market participants may enter into IBMs associated with energy in either the Day-Ahead Energy Market, in which case the transaction automatically carries forward into the Real-Time Energy Market, or just the Real-Time Energy Market. Thus, the day-ahead IBMs always flow in real time. As a result, the day-ahead IBM accrues Schedule 2 TU charges for each bilateral contract block-hour. More importantly, IBM transactions that flow from day ahead to real time are only counted once, in real time, even though their origin may have been day ahead.

A day-ahead IBM does not incur Schedule 2 VM or Schedule 3 charges because the IBM only affects the day-ahead or real-time adjusted load obligation, which is not a billing determinant for calculating these charges.

Reference: Manual 28, Section 3.1.2
