Certain RTOs/ISOs have proposed to reform their ORDCs in recent years to manage operational uncertainty, and another RTO/ISO is currently considering such reforms. This panel will discuss the role of reforming the quantity of 10- and 30-minute reserves, defined herein as “contingency reserves”, the RTO/ISO procures, the pricing of those reserves, and shortage pricing levels to address changing system needs.
