Title: FERC–725R, Mandatory
Reliability Standards: BAL Reliability
Standards.1
OMB Control No.: 1902–0268
Type of Request: Three-year renewal
request for the FERC–725R information
collection requirements, with no
changes to the reporting and
recordkeeping requirements.
Abstract:
On August 8, 2005, Congress enacted
into law the Electricity Modernization
Act of 2005, which is Title XII, Subtitle
A, of the Energy Policy Act of 2005
(EPAct 2005).2 EPAct 2005 added a new
section 215 to the FPA, which required
a Commission-certified Electric
Reliability Organization (ERO) to
develop mandatory and enforceable
Reliability Standards, which are subject
to Commission review and approval.
Once approved, the Reliability Standard
may be enforced by the ERO subject to
Commission oversight, or the
Commission can independently enforce
Reliability Standards.3
On February 3, 2006, the Commission
issued Order No. 672, implementing
section 215 of the FPA.4 Pursuant to
Order No. 672, the Commission certified
one organization, North American
Electric Reliability Corporation (NERC),
as the ERO.5 The Reliability Standards
developed by the ERO and approved by
the Commission apply to users, owners
and operators of the Bulk-Power System
as set forth in each Reliability Standard.
FERC–725R includes the following
nation-wide Reliability Standards: 6
• BAL–001–2,7 Real Power Balancing
Control Performance.
Reliability Standard BAL–001–2 is
designed to ensure that applicable
1 In Docket No. RD20–9–000, Reliability Standard
BAL–003–2 is being considered for approval. (A
Notice requesting comments on the changes
proposed in Docket No. RD20–9–000 is posted in
eLibrary at https://elibrary.ferc.gov/idmws/

entities balance generation and load by
maintaining system frequency within
narrow bounds around a scheduled
value, and it improves reliability by
adding a frequency component to the
measurement of a Balancing Authority’s
Area Control Error (ACE).8
• BAL–002–3,9 Disturbance Control
Standard—Contingency Reserve for
Recovery from a Balancing Contingency
Event.
This standard ensures that a
responsible entity, either a balancing
authority or reserve sharing group, is
able to recover from system
contingencies by deploying adequate
reserves to return their Area Control
Error to defined values and replacing
the capacity and energy lost due to
generation or transmission equipment
outages.
• BAL–003–1,10 Frequency Response
and Frequency Bias Setting.
This standard requires sufficient
Frequency Response from the Balancing
Authority (BA) to maintain
Interconnection Frequency within
predefined bounds by arresting
frequency deviations and supporting
frequency until the frequency is restored
to its scheduled value. It also ensures
that balancing authority’s Frequency
Bias Setting is accurately calculated to
match its actual Frequency Response. It
provides consistent methods for
measuring Frequency Response and
determining the Frequency Bias Setting.
Each balancing authority reports its
previous year Frequency Response
Measure and Frequency Bias Setting to
NERC via FRS (Frequency Response
Survey) Form 1. The information
provided on the FRS Form 1 is based on
events which qualify for analyses; NERC
identifies between 20 to 35 events in
each Interconnection for calculating the
Frequency Response Measure and
Frequency Bias Setting.
• BAL–005–1,11 Balancing Authority
Control.
This standard establishes
requirements for acquiring data
necessary to calculate Reporting Area
Control Error (Reporting ACE). The
standard also specifies a minimum
periodicity, accuracy, and availability
requirement for acquisition of the data
8 Area Control Error is the instantaneous
difference between a Balancing Authority’s net
actual and scheduled interchange, taking into
accounts the effects of Frequency Bias, correction
for meter error, and Automatic Time Error
Correction (ATEC), if operating in the ATEC mode.
ATEC is only applicable to Balancing Authorities in
the Western Interconnection. NERC Glossary.

Reliability Standard BAL-001-2 is designed to ensure that

of a Balancing Authority's Area Control Error (ACE).\8\

BAL-002-3,\9\ Disturbance Control Standard--Contingency
Reserve for Recovery from a Balancing Contingency Event.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\9\ It was approved in Docket No. RD18-7.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
This standard ensures that a responsible entity, either a balancing
authority or reserve sharing group, is able to recover from system
contingencies by deploying adequate reserves to return their Area
Control Error to defined values and replacing the capacity and energy
lost due to generation or transmission equipment outages.

Setting.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\10\ It was approved in Docket No. RM13-11; the current version
is Reliability Standard BAL-003-1.1.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
This standard requires sufficient Frequency Response from the
Balancing Authority (BA) to maintain Interconnection Frequency within
predefined bounds by arresting frequency deviations and supporting
frequency until the frequency is restored to its scheduled value. It
also ensures that balancing authority's Frequency Bias Setting is
accurately calculated to match its actual Frequency Response. It
provides consistent methods for measuring Frequency Response and
determining the Frequency Bias Setting. Each balancing authority
reports its previous year Frequency Response Measure and Frequency Bias
Setting to NERC via FRS (Frequency Response Survey) Form 1. The
information provided on the FRS Form 1 is based on events which qualify

Interconnection for calculating the Frequency Response Measure and
Frequency Bias Setting.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\11\ It was approved in Docket No. RM16-13.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
This standard establishes requirements for acquiring data necessary
to calculate Reporting Area Control Error (Reporting ACE). The standard
also specifies a minimum periodicity, accuracy, and availability
requirement for acquisition of the data
[[Page 53359]]
and for providing the information to the System Operator. It requires
balancing authorities to maintain minimum levels of annual availability
of 99.5% for each balancing authority system for calculating Reporting
ACE.
