Non-Spinning Reserve Deployment and Recall Procedure
Summary
This Other Binding Document Revision Request (OBDRR) updates the Non-Spinning Reserve Deployment and Recall Procedure Other Binding Document (OBD) to align with how Non-Spinning Reserve (Non-Spin) is deployed with implementation of the Real Time Co-optimization plus Batteries (RTC+B) initiative. This OBDRR also enhances the trigger calculation that is used to recommend deployment of Non-Spin such that it takes available energy into account when assessing capability to meet the 30-minute out forecasted Load. Finally, the OBDRR includes edits to clarify and improve the document’s organization.
