Problem Statement
Resources don’t match between the 2026 WPR provided PCM seed case and the 2028 HS PF case
Was the topology and generation resources the same between the 2026 WPR Submission vs. what was provided by the data submitters into the 2028 HS PF?

4. Western Electricity Coordinating Council
What is happening?
Compare and map generation differences between the 2026 WPR Seed PCM and the 2028HS1 PF (ADSTF PF2 issue list item)
Identifying generator inconsistencies between the two cases

5. ADS Production Cost Model Components
Generation
Map and align between 2028HS1 PF and 2026 WPR ADS Seed PCM
Transmission
2028HS1 PF topology

7. Generation Matched Generation Keep Mismatched Generation Bus Number
Match Bus Name
Match ID…
Use 2028HS1 Bus, KV, ID
Use 2028HS1 names if differ
Generators ONLY in 2026WPR ADS Seed PCM
Match what we can, keep.
Delete unless parked
Generators ONLY in 2028HS1 PF
Import remaining

Process
Parked Gens Stay in PCM
Busses 1000, 2000, 3000, 4000, 5000
Equivalenced/Aggregate-Accounted for in GridView.
GridView will consolidate to one unit, then redistribute upon PF export.
New generator names in PCM
Format ex. BusNumber_BusName_ID_New
Station Service Loads
Deleted in PCM
Load Modifiers
Generation Side

9. Western Electricity Coordinating Council
What’s next?
Reconcile Generator information
Implement changes
Move gens to proper location
Update names (PF)
Unit kV (PF)
Unit IDs (PF)
Add/Delete appropriate generators

ADSTF Findings
Acknowledgment of differences
Issue List- PF 2:
Initial mitigating idea:
Regions right-away build a “Specialized PF case” – not realistic.
Proposed ADSTF solutions:
Short term – Identify differences (resource mapping)
Long term – Create a feedback loop into BCCS.
Western Electricity Coordinating Council

11. Proposed Long-Term Solution
Communication between Regional Planning Groups and data submitters continues
Each year-10 PF case must include coordination
Resource differences for first ADS will be made available for coordination
Ultimate goal of a “single vision” of the year-10 for planning needs
