INITIATIVE:
WEIM resource sufficiency evaluation enhancements

Started: May 25, 2021

Leads
Danny Johnson

Phase 2 of the WEIM resource sufficiency evaluation enhancements initiative considers outstanding enhancements to the WEIM RSE such as the consideration of load conformance, identifying the correct metrics and quantity of uncertainty that should be tested for, and how block hourly exports from the ISO BAA that may be cleared due to advisory WEIM transfers are treated.  Phase 2 also investigates the ability for the WEIM to provide assistance for balancing authority areas who have failed the RSE.

OUTCOME (Phase 1): The California ISO activated WEIM resource sufficiency evaluation enhancements Phase 1 (RSEE1) on June 1, 2022.  RSEE1 benefits market participants by implementing enhancements to ensure resource sufficiency evaluation is administered accurately and applied equitably, and by improving the accuracy and transparency of the resource sufficiency evaluation.
