Download as PDF 47954 Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 108 / Tuesday, June 4, 2024 / Notices Applicable Rate Schedule L–AS9 This rate schedule applies to the Western Area Colorado Missouri Balancing Authority (WACM) as the Balancing Authority Area (BAA) operator when the Rocky Mountain region is participating in the Western Energy Imbalance Service (WEIS) Market. Balancing Authority (BA) Real Power Losses Service is needed to account for the energy loss of the transmission systems within the BAA, which the BAA operator must account for and be compensated where applicable. BA Real Power Losses are applicable for all real-time and prescheduled transactions on transmission facilities inside the WACM BAA. In accordance with WACM’s Business Practices, the BA Real Power Losses obligation falls: (1) to load inside the WACM BAA; (2) to the last Transmission Service Provider (TSP) inside the WACM BAA listed on the applicable import, export, or wheeledthrough point-to-point transmission service schedule; or (3) to the TSP which any dynamically transferred load and generation is connected to. This prevents duplicate assessment of the real power losses for schedules which involve more than one TSP inside the WACM BAA. Schedule 9R to OATT Attachment R ddrumheller on DSK120RN23PROD with NOTICES1 Formula Rate WACM’s BA Real Power Loss Factor Percentage is posted in WACM’s ‘‘Ancillary Services and Losses’’ Business Practices which is posted on the Loveland Area Projects Transmission (LAPT) Open Access Same-Time Information System website. Entities with load in the WACM BAA are required to submit balanced load forecasts and actual meter data with real power losses included. Financial settlement for applicable point-to-point transactions and for load and generation which have been dynamically transferred out of WACM BAA into another BAA, as detailed in WACM’s ‘‘Ancillary Services and Losses’’ Business Practices, will be calculated using WACM’s then current BA Real Power Loss Factor Percentage and a charge assessed based on the WEIS Market’s hourly Locational Marginal Price for the LAP settlement location. VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:15 Jun 03, 2024 Jkt 262001 (Supersedes Rate Schedule L–AS9 dated February 1, 2021, through September 30, 2021) United States Department of Energy Western Area Power Administration Formula Rate Rocky Mountain Region Loveland Area Projects Western Area Colorado Missouri Balancing Authority Generator Imbalance Service (Approved Under Rate Order No. WAPA–197) Effective The first day of the first full billing period beginning on or after October 1, 2021, and extending through September 30, 2024, or until superseded by another rate schedule, whichever occurs earlier. [Note: This rate schedule was extended by Rate Order No. WAPA–214 through September 30, 2026.] Applicable This rate schedule applies to the Western Area Colorado Missouri Balancing Authority (WACM) as the Balancing Authority Area (BAA) operator and to Loveland Area Projects (LAPT) as the Transmission Service Provider (TSP) when the Rocky Mountain region (RM) is participating in the Western Energy Imbalance Service (WEIS) Market and the WEIS Market is providing such ancillary service. Within the BAA(s) in the WEIS Market footprint, Generator Imbalance Service is provided when a difference occurs between the expected and the actual delivery of energy within such BAA(s) over a Dispatch Interval. All resources in the WEIS Market will be subject to settlement related to Generator Imbalance Service in the WEIS Market. Southwest Power Pool, Inc. (SPP), as the WEIS Market administrator, will obtain and provide this service under the WEIS Market and will calculate and bill applicable charges and credits. As a participating balancing authority in the WEIS Market footprint, WACM is required to register loads and resources for non-participating entities within the WACM BAA. Such entities must enter into separate agreements with WACM which will specify the terms of the Generator Imbalance Service contracted through the WEIS Market. The LAPT TSP offers this service, to the extent it is physically feasible to do so from its resources or from resources available to it, when Transmission PO 00000 Frm 00063 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 Service is used to deliver energy from a generator located within the WACM BAA and the Transmission Customers must either purchase this service from the LAPT TSP or make alternative arrangements with WACM to satisfy their Generator Imbalance Service obligations. Charges shall reflect the pass-through of all applicable charges/credits associated with the WEIS Tariff assessed to RM for embedded resources in the WACM BAA of such entity that does not make adequate alternate arrangements in the WEIS Market to satisfy its Generator Imbalance Service obligation. RM will also charge an administrative fee to cover RM’s cost of administering this service on behalf of such entities. The WEIS charges/credits attributed to specific settlement location(s) (as defined in the WEIS Tariff) will be passed directly through to the applicable asset owners (as defined in the WEIS Tariff) at the settlement location(s). RM’s Administrative Fee will be allocated using the higher of either RM’s calculated minimum fee or the entity’s proportional share of the nonparticipating entities’ Net Energy for Load.
