1 Ontario Overview Dave Short Senior Regulatory Analyst, Regulatory Affairs IESO’s ERO Workshop – June 28, 2006

2 2 Outline Ontario Framework Ontario Players: Functional Definition Reliability Standards Process

3 3 Before we begin… NERC only references reliability standards as NERC standards: –Old Names Version 1 (original concept for improved standards) Version 0 (April 2005) Unless otherwise stated… –NERC means ERO recognizing the future of NERC as the ERO –NPCC means ERO recognizing the future of NPCC CBRE performing delegated functions of the ERO

4 Ontario Framework

5 5 Electricity Act, 1998 (Ontario) Defines Standards Authority as the NERC or successor IESO, Market Rules and OEB authorities Some IESO objectives in the Act…(s 5) –to direct the operation and maintain the reliability of the grid, –to participate in the development by any standards authority of standards relating to the reliability of the grid, –to co-ordinate with the responsible authorities outside Ontario.

6 6 Ontario Framework Ontario Market Rules Developed by the IESO and approved by the OEB Industry Input (Technical Panel, etc.) Licence-based requirement structure Generic requirement comply with reliability standards (Ch 4, s 2 and Ch 5, s 3)

7 7 Ontario Framework Licences Issued by the OEB to the IESO and Ontario’s market participants Require licence holders to comply with market rules Basis for Ontario functional definitions of transmitter, generator, distributors, wholesaler and retailer

8 8 Ontario Framework Compliance Audits: Compliance Audits are a historical review of compliance process and reporting Because of our compliance structure NERC will only perform an compliance audit on the IESO NERC Registration: Registration process is needed by NERC to identify potential entities for compliance audits and compliance sanctions. Market participants do not need to register with NERC and only the IESO will be certified by NERC

9 9 Ontario Framework Readiness Audits: Readiness audits are not compliance based, but a best practices forward looking assessment Recommendations are not mandatory We expect that only the IESO needs to be audited by NERC Reliability Information Reporting: Market Participant report of reliability related information is through the IESO’s Reliability Compliance Program (IRCP)

10 Ontario Players: Functional Definition

11 11 Ontario Players NERC Reliability Functional Model: Defines entity functions to ensure reliability Explains relationship among the entities Basis for NERC standards Does not match Ontario licence structure

12 12 Ontario Players The Licence, Functional Model and NERC Registered Ballot Body structures do not match… –Licence and Market Rules match to meet Ontario’s needs –Functional Model used in the NERC and NPCC standards –NERC Registered Ballot Body Structure is a balanced approach to include anyone involved in the industry

13 13 Ontario Players The IESO will help by… –identifying all market participant Ontario functions, and –cross-referencing this information with the NERC functional model, and the NERC ballot body segments

14 14 Ontario Players LicenceMarket Rules Functional Model (NERC Standards) Registered Ballot Body Generator Generator Owner Generator Operator Purchase-Selling Entity Transmission Owner Generators Transmitter Transmission Owner Transmission Planner Transmission Owners Wholesaler Purchase-Selling EntityLarge End Users Brokers, Aggregators, and Marketers Retailer Purchase-Selling EntitySmall End Users Brokers, Aggregators, and Marketers DistributorsDistributorDistribution Provider Transmission Owner Transmission Dependent Utility Large End User

15 15 Ontario Players LicenceMarket Rules Functional Model (NERC Standards) Registered Ballot Body IESO Reliability Coordinator Balancing Authority Interchange Authority Planning Authority (1) Transmission Operator (2) Market Monitor Independent System Operators / Regional Transmission Organization (ISO/RTO) and Regional Entities (RE) (1)Ontario Planning Authority (OPA) and IESO have an agreement on certain Planning Authority Functions. The OPA is also licensed by the OEB. (2)Canadian Niagara Power, Brookfield Power, Hydro One and IESO have an operating agreement. Foundation is IESO’s Licence, the Market Rules and Electricity Act.

16 Reliability Standards Process

17 17 Who Specifies Standards? NERCNERC NPCCNPCC IESOIESO Foundation Comprehensive

18 18 Reliability Standards Process NERC has established its “Reliability Standards Development Procedure” Procedure Principles: –Inclusive –Open –Balanced NERC membership approved procedure American National Standards Institute (ANSI) certified procedure

19 19 Reliability Standards Process Requestor (anyone) proposes to the Standards Committee (SC) The SC works with the requestor to develop Standards Authorization Request (SAR) and posts SAR for comment Based on public feedback, SAR may be approved and assigned to an industry based drafting team

20 20 Reliability Standards Process Draft standard is posted and balloted (multiple balloting with revisions implemented based on comments and voting results) Standard is approved by the NERC Board of Trustees with effective date. Standards is approved by applicable regulators (not in Ontario), or Standards is live in Ontario as of effective date

21 21 Reliability Standards Process Registered Ballot Body: –9 Segments: Few individual segments cannot dominate and a single segment cannot block a standard –Segments include generators, transmitters, large users, small users, etc –No fee to register with NERC –Registered entity selects a segment – selection is approved by NERC

22 22 Reliability Standards Process Market participants have many votes… The IESO has only one…

23 23 Reliability Standards Process Implementation in Ontario: –NERC and NPCC standards typically have taken 12 to 24 months to approve –New NERC and NPCC standards are enforceable in Ontario after upon the effective date of the standard. –The effective date permits regulators time review new standards The IESO recommended and supports the OEB obtaining remand authority

24 24 Reliability Standards Process IESO Reliability Standards: –The IESO’s standards are grounded in the market rules with implementation via the market manuals –IESO standard changes may be initiated in the following manner: 1.The IESO proposing a market rule/manual amendment 2.Market participants may request a market rule/manual amendment [post workshop deletion] 3.Market participants may request a market rule/manual exemption The IESO will propose a consolidated document detailing the implementation and amendment process for market manuals
