Energy Markets Overview
Energy
Markets
Day-Ahead Energy Markets
(DAM)
DAM produces financially
binding schedules for the
production and consumption of
electricity (occurs on the day
before the operating day)
Real-Time Energy Markets
Real-Time Energy Market
balances differences between
the Day-Ahead scheduled
amounts of electricity and the
actual real-time requirements

DAY-AHEAD ENERGY MARKET
Review of offer structure, clearing, obligations
Day-Ahead Energy Market
• The DAM allows participants to sell/purchase energy on a
forward basis
•
•
•
•
•
Load/Asset Related Demand
Virtual Transactions (Increments/Decrements)
Dispatchable Asset Related Demand
External Transactions (Imports/Exports)
Generators
• The DAM produces financially binding positions that are
satisfied through:
– Physical performance (i.e. delivery/consumption) in real-time, or
– Cash settlement at the Real-Time Price for Day-Ahead quantities not
delivered/consumed
6
Price Taker versus Price Sensitive Behavior
• Participants have the ability to participate in the energy
market as price-sensitive or a price taker (i.e.,fixed)
• A fixed demand in the market effectively represents a bid to
consume energy at any cost below $1,000 MWh
• A fixed supply in the market effectively represents an offer to
sell energy at $0 MWh
7
Participation – Load/ARD
• Load/ARD participate through Demand Bids only in the DAM
• Demand Bids can be submitted as:
– Fixed Demand Bid specifying quantity and location (one per hour) or
– An individual priced Demand Bid specifying price, quantity and
location
• Participants can submit up to 10 individual demand bids per location, per
hour
• The price range can be between $0 and $1,000 MWh
8
Participation – External Transactions
• External Transactions are submitted to capture energy flow
into New England (Import) or out to one of the neighboring
areas (Export) in the DAM and RTM
• External Transactions can be submitted as:
– Fixed External Transaction specifying quantity and external node
ranging in duration from one hour to 24 hours
– An individual priced External Transaction specifying price, quantity and
external node ranging in duration from one hour to 24 hours
• The price range can be between $0 and $1,000MWh
9
Participation – Virtual Transactions
• Virtual Transactions are a virtual supply Increments (INCs) and
virtual demand Decrements (DECs) only in the DAM
• Virtual Transactions can be submitted as;
– Up to 50 priced bid blocks per location, per participant
• The price range can be between $0 and $1,000MWh
10
Participation – Generators
• Generators participate by submitting Supply Offer with
physical and financial parameters in the DAM and RTM

Generator’s Financial Parameters
• Start Up Fee is the cost a generator incurs when started. Separate
cost can be designated when coming on-line from the following
three states (in $)
– Cold
– Intermediate
– Hot
• No Load Fee is the cost a generator incurs for each hour it remains
on-line (in $/hr)
• Incremental Offers are the blocks of energy quantities paired with
particular prices that reflect what a generator can produce at
certain incremental cost (price/quantity pairs)
– Quantity must be monotonically increasing
– Cost must be between $0 MWh and $1,000 MWh
– Identical price/pair blocks are used for the entire day

Generator’s Physical Parameters
• Emergency Minimum is the lowest value at which the
generator can be dispatched during Minimum Generation
Emergency
• Economic Minimum (“EcoMin”) is the lowest value at which
the generator can be dispatched during normal conditions
• Economic Maximum (“EcoMax”) is the highest value at which
the generator can be dispatched during normal conditions
• Manual Response Rate is the rate at which the generator can
ramp its output
14
Generator’s Physical Parameters (cont.)
• Notification Time is the time needed for generator to
synchronize once informed to come on-line
• Start Up Time is the time the generator needs to reach its
Economic Minimum once synchronized to the system
• Minimum Run Time is the shortest duration the generator has
to remain on-line (after reaching Economic Minimum and
available for ISO dispatch) prior to being asked to come offline,
• Minimum Down Time is the shortest duration between the
time the generator has gone off-line and the time to come online, reach Economic Minimum and is available for ISO
dispatch

Generator Self Scheduling
• Resource can chose to self-schedule (i.e., fixed) their output
and become a price taker. A self-schedule “overrides” the
resources financial parameters effectively reflecting a desire
to operate at zero price, assuming no reliability issues.
• There are two key aspects of self-scheduling;
– Self-Commitment: A request for a resource to come online for a
duration (e.g., Minimum Run Time) at its EcoMin and be economically
dispatched between its EcoMin and EcoMax
– Self-Dispatch: An adjustment of a resource’s EcoMin to a desired
minimum output level. Resources will continue to be dispatched
between their EcoMin and EcoMax
18
Self Scheduling in DAM
• Generator can Self-Schedule which will result in clearing the
Day Ahead Energy Market as a price taker
– Equivalent to an offer to produce at the EcoMin at no cost (zero price
offer), and compensated at the Day-Ahead Clearing Price (set by
another generator)
• This is achieved by setting the Must Run flag and the
parameters are treated as:
– Start Up Fee = $0
– No Load Fee = $0
– Energy price pair blocks below the Economic Minimum offered at $0
• Generator will clear the Day Ahead Energy Market with at
least the energy below the Economic Minimum (unless there
is a reliability issue)
19
Example: Self-Schedule in DAM
•
Generator Self-Schedules in the DAM and sets its Economic Minimum at 150MW
•
At a minimum, generator A will clear 150MW for all 24hr of the day at the
Day-Ahead clearing price
•
Clearing/dispatch of output above 150MW will be on economic merit

Example: Self-Scheduling & Dispatchable Range
• A generator that is not constrained by its physical parameter is eligible to
set the Real Time Price
– When self-scheduled, participants often increase the Economic Minimum
from their DAM offer, which naturally decreases the range in which a
generator is eligible to set the Real-Time Price
21
RE-OFFER PERIOD AND THE RESOURCE
ADEQUACY ASSESSMENT
Modification of financial parameters as previously submitted
in the DAM, supplemental commitments
Re-Offer Period
• Between 16:00 and 18:00 prior to the operating day,
Participants may modify certain financial Supply Offer
parameters that were submitted in the DAM
– The Incremental Offer (price/quantity pairs) can be modified for all
generators
– For generators that have not cleared the DAM, the Start Up and No
Load fee can be modified
– Generators that did not clear the DAM can also request to selfschedule
• Physical parameters can be re-declared only through phone
call to the Control Room
23
Resource Adequacy Assessment
• Between 18:00 and 22:00, the ISO performs the initial
Resource Adequacy Assessment to ensure that resources
committed in the DAM can meet the operational
requirements (e.g., forecasted load, operating reserves)
• During this time, supplemental commitments are considered
using offers submitted in the DAM (or modified during the ReOffer Period)
24
REAL-TIME ENERGY MARKET
Dispatching resources, settling Day-Ahead positions
Real-Time Energy Market Redeclaration
• Participants cannot change the financial parameters of their
Supply Offers
• Participants have the ability to self-schedule (self-commit) in
real-time, with 30 minute advance notice
– If approved, the generator will be permitted to come on-line
– If approved, the generator will at least be operated at its Economic
Minimum parameter
• Participant can also self-scheduled its output by re-declaring
their the Economic Minimum (self-dispatch) or to request
release to go off-line.
• Physical parameters in real-time can only be re-declared
through phone call to the Control Room
26
Real-Time Energy Market
• The ISO is evaluating system needs throughout the operating
day and will commit additional generators as needed
• During the operating day, economic dispatch of committed
generators is done based on the incremental offer submitted
in the DAM (or modified during the Re-Offer period)
27
Settlement
• Generators that clear in the DAM and produce energy up to
their cleared schedule are not impacted by the Real-Time
Price for that energy
• During an hour, if a generator produces less energy than its
Day-Ahead cleared schedule then it must procure the shortfall
at the Real-Time Price
• If a generator is dispatched above its Day-Ahead schedule
then the additional energy is settled based on the Real-Time
Price
• Generators which were committed/dispatched out of merit
for system needs are made whole through NCPC (i.e.,
indifferent regarding Real-Time Prices)
28
Summary
• As discussed, participants do not have an opportunity to
update financial parameters after the Re-Offer Period
• The Incremental Offer blocks must be identical for each hour
of the day
• The price of the Incremental Offer blocks can range between
$0 and $1,000
• During upcoming meetings, the ISO will discuss the observed
problems with the current market rules and the proposed
enhancements
