Please provide any questions or comments your organization may have regarding section 5 of the EDAM BRS.
When providing input in the text box below, please specify the BRQ(s) to which your comment or question refers.
Please note that there are currently two companion initiatives for EDAM that will be implemented at the same time: 1) EDAM Implementation, which addresses the entire market framework for the EDAM footprint, and 2) EDAM ISO BAA Participations Rules, which applies specific operational and settlement participation rules to the EDAM market for the ISO BAA (‘CISO’). This document pertains to the former.

In section 5.4.1, DAM-BRQ-07106, the BRS states: “For EDAM SP-Tie SRs: RA Supplier to Reassign RA Obligation from SP-Tie SR to EDAM Physical Resource(s) in DA”. SCE reads this to imply that the LSE acting as the RA Supplier would be initiating Reassignment to specific resources. However, the recently updated CIRA Guide seems to indicate otherwise. SCE would like to ask CAISO to:
1) Please clarify if the generator/resource that may be reassigned from the NRS RA Import is supposed to initiate reassignment in CIRA, or the LSE that has the original NRA RA Import? The recently updated CIRA Guide seems to indicate that the generator/resource supplier is the one that needs to initiate reassignments and that “The Resource Reassignment page is only for suppliers”.
1a) If the generator/resource is the one that needs to initiate the reassignment and the LSE fails to accept the reassignment, who is responsible for RAAIM?
1b) If the LSE is the one that needs to initiate the reassignment and the generator fails to accept the reassignment, who is responsible for RAAIM?
ISO response
1) Please clarify if the generator/resource that may be reassigned from the NRS RA Import is supposed to initiate reassignment in CIRA, or the LSE that has the original NRA RA Import? The recently updated CIRA Guide seems to indicate that the generator/resource supplier is the one that needs to initiate reassignments and that “The Resource Reassignment page is only for suppliers”.
CAISO Response: The SC of the resource (supplier) is responsible for initiating the RA reassignment. Some LSEs are the SC for both the LSE and the resource, so they would be responsible for submitting the reassignments. The SC that includes the resource on its RA Supply Plan is the SC for the resource and is responsible for submitting the reassignment in CIRA.
1a) If the generator/resource is the one that needs to initiate the reassignment and the LSE fails to accept the reassignment, who is responsible for RAAIM?
CAISO Response: The SC of the resource is responsible for RAAIM. The LSE is not involved in the reassignment process; the process is carried out by the SC of the non-resource-specific RA Import and the SC of the physical resource in EDAM. Again, if the LSE is also the SC of the resource, then these rules would apply to that SC.
1b) If the LSE is the one that needs to initiate the reassignment and the generator fails to accept the reassignment, who is responsible for RAAIM?
CAISO Response: See response provided to question 1a.
