Common use of Manual Load Shedding Priorities Clause in Contracts

Manual Load Shedding Priorities. Section 7.7.11.4 of the CAISO Tariff provides that the CAISO will determine each UDC or MSS that has insufficient resources to meet its forecasted Demand in accordance with the CAISO forecast. If Load Shedding is required solely due to insufficient resources to meet Demand and/or inability to meet Operating Reserve obligations (as defined by WECC or its successor and implemented by the CAISO), as determined in accordance with Section 7.7.11.4 of the CAISO Tariff, and only if NCPA, on behalf of the MSSAA Members, is short of resources to meet its forecasted MSS Demand and exports, as determined in accordance with Section 7.7.11.4 of the CAISO Tariff, will NCPA, on behalf of the MSSAA Members, be required to shed Load, as directed by the CAISO. NCPA shall provide the CAISO with detailed real time information, in graphical or tabular format for those contracts and resources that do not have direct telemetry, demonstrating its full resource sufficiency during any time that the CAISO interrupted firm Load within the CAISO Balancing Authority Area or during which time a CAISO direction to interrupt firm Load was in force, in the manner of other MSS Operators and UDCs seeking similar exclusion from firm Load Shedding obligations, and NCPA and its Scheduling Coordinator shall be subject to the provisions of Section 7.7.11.4 of the CAISO Tariff for any failure to make such demonstration. SVP’s comparable obligation is addressed in the SVP MSS Agreement.
