ExecutiveSummary
The fourteenth IDT started on time, ran for six hours, ended on time and was very
successful. The transition from the EIS market to the Integrated Marketplace was very
smooth with no issues managing the SPP BA ACE. SPP was able to manage frequency
and ACE for the entire 6-hour duration of the test.
This was the first test using the Regulation priority groups for deploying Regulation
Up and Regulation Down.
During this IDT SPP also tested managing the SPP BA in BAAL (NERC’s Balancing
Authority ACE Limit) control mode.
This was the first test with the Integrated Marketplace scheduling/tagging system in
Production meaning that Market Participants were no longer required to submit dual tag
entries for their schedules. Market Participants were instructed to submit EIS schedules
only for today’s test. Beginning on February 22nd they were allowed to begin submitting
Integrated Marketplace schedules for Operating Days March 1st and beyond.
Ramp Sharing was “on” at 50% for Regulation Up and Regulation Down and “on” at
100% for Spinning and Supplemental Reserves for the entire test.

Introduction
In order to validate that Southwest Power Pool (SPP) and Market Participant
(MP)systems,processes,andstaffareabletooperateinalignmentwithIntegrated
Marketplace Protocols, SPP has scheduled 15 IDTs wherein SPP will focus on all
itemsrequiredtoobtainNERC/SERCcertificationasaBalancingAuthority(BA).
The fourteenth IDT was held on 02/25/2014 from 9:30 A.M. through 3:30 P.M. The
purpose of the test was to runtheIntegratedMarketplacewithRegisteredResources

2) Maintain the overall SPP BA Area Control Error (ACE) and frequency in

3) Start and stop the test on time, as scheduled.
4) No major problems experienced by SPP or the MPs.

Pre‐Call
For the 02/25 IDT, the pre-call was held on 02/24. SPP addressed some areas of
concern with the participants in an effort to improve system performance during the IDT.
SPP reiterated the need for the BAs and MPs to have a representative on the open
conference lines for the pre-call and during the IDT at the beginning of each call.
Roll-call was taken and representatives for all of the 16 BAs attended the call and
provided a preliminary “Go” for the next day’s IDT. For the MPs representing
Resources, there were ten MPs that were expected to be on the call but were not. SPP
was unable to confirm the status of these ten MPs that were not on the call.

IDTGo/No‐GoRollCall
On 02/25 SPP opened the conference call lines and took a Go/No-Go vote. The BA’s
were polled on the reliability conference call and all 16 BAs gave a “Go” (two of the
BA’s gave their Go/No-Go vote on the open MP call due to reliability/marketing code of
conduct issues).
Next, the marketing representatives for the BAs and MPs representing Resources
provided a “Go”. There were two MPs that was expected to be on the call that were not.
Refer to the following tables for the names of the representatives that provided a
“Go” for the 02/25/2014 IDT:

GeneralObservations
The fourteenth IDT started on time at 9:30 A.M., ended as scheduled at 3:30 P.M.,
and it was very successful. SPP was able to manage ACE and frequency for the entire six
hours and there were no major problems for either SPP or the MPs. The following is a

A reminder that BAs and MPs are requested to be on the calls on time.
The previous concerns with heavily loaded constraints were addressed and
were not an issue during the test nor are they expected to be in future IDTs.
The timing for cutting in and out of the test was good.
The Switchover to Integrated Marketplace setpoints was very smooth with no
problems maintaining ACE or frequency. The successful entry was attributed
to EIS and IM Resource Plans matching up very well.
The large price differences between EIS and Integrated Marketplace LIP/LMPs
during previous IDTs was not an issue during this test.
Ramp sharing was on (50%) for Regulation Up and Regulation Down and on at
100% for Spinning and Supplemental Reserves for the entire test.
During the IDT there were no naturally occurring RSS Events.
Deploying Regulation Up and Regulation Down utilizing the 6 priority buckets
worked very well:
a. Will provide an update to the Joint Working Group on 2/26.
b. SPP will recommend that 6 priority groups be activated at Go-Live to
mitigate potential slow regulation response.
c. SPP estimates 4-6 Resources per priority group.
d. An average clearing of 10 MW clearing of Regulation per Resource.
e. Expected to deploy 40-60 MW on a bucket before moving to the next.
Tested BAAL Control for the entire IDT. Tested managing the SPP BA ACE
with BAAL control in place of CPS control. During this time CPS2 violations
aren’t applicable
All 72 RTBM intervals solved and were approved on time.
SPP informed MPs that they could submit either “Fixed” or “Market” Offers
for Regulation service instead of asking the existing providers in the EIS
Market to submit fixed offers for this product on the same resources identified
as carrying it in the EIS Market Ancillary Services Plans. Additionally, SPP
requested that the MPs also submit “Fixed” or “Market” Offers for Spinning
and Supplemental Reserves.
SPP did not put any restrictions on what MPs should submit Turn Around
Ramp Rate Factors (TARRF) at for this IDT.
