Transmission Congestion

(OpAgr Schedules 1-3.2.4, 3.4.1, & 5.1-5.2 Manual 28, Section 8)

The increased energy costs due to redispatch during the applicable interval when the PJM transmission system is constrained are assessed to market participants based on the congestion price component of LMPs. Day-Ahead revenues collected are allocated as credits to FTR holders. Balancing Revenues are allocated as credits based on real-time load plus exports ratio shares.

Day-ahead Charges: Day-ahead Implicit Congestion charges are calculated hourly as the sum of day-ahead withdrawal values (i.e., all cleared day-ahead demand/decrement/load response bids and sale transactions priced at the applicable locations’ day-ahead congestion prices) minus the sum of day-ahead injection values (i.e., all cleared day-ahead generation/increment offers and purchase transactions priced at the applicable locations’ day-ahead congestion prices).

Explicit Congestion charges for day-ahead energy transactions are calculated hourly and equal the scheduled MWh times the difference between day-ahead sink and source congestion prices. These charges are assessed to the buyer (or point-to-point transmission customer, if applicable).

Balancing Charges: Balancing Implicit Congestion charges are calculated for each five minute interval as the sum of balancing withdrawal congestion values (i.e., all deviations between demand/decrement/load response bids and sale transactions cleared day-ahead versus real-time load without losses, and sale transactions, priced at one-twelfth of the applicable locations’ real-time congestion prices) minus the sum of balancing injection congestion values (i.e., all deviations between generation/increment offers and purchase transactions cleared day-ahead versus real-time generation and purchase transactions, priced at one-twelfth of the applicable locations’ real-time congestion prices). In situations where five minute energy position interval data has not been provided (including all day-ahead energy position data), the energy position value provided will be scaled or flat-profiled across each of the five minute intervals of the provided period in order to obtain five minute interval energy positions and deviations. Charges may be positive or negative depending on the direction of the real-time deviation from the day-ahead energy position, and totals are summed for each hour.

Explicit Congestion charges for balancing energy transactions are calculated for each five minute interval and equal any real-time deviations from the transaction MWs cleared day-ahead times one-twelfth of the difference between the real-time sink and source congestion prices. In situations where five minute energy position interval data has not been provided (including all day-ahead energy position data), the energy position value provided will be flat-profiled across each of the five minute intervals of the provided period in order to obtain five minute interval energy positions and deviations. Charges may be positive or negative depending on the direction of the real-time deviation from the day-ahead energy position, and totals are summed for each hour. These charges are assessed to the buyer (or point-to-point transmission customer, if applicable).

Day-ahead Credits: Total day-ahead congestion revenues (including net day-ahead MISO and NYISO Market-to-Market adjustments) are allocated as hourly credits based on FTR target allocations (FTR MW times the difference between day-ahead FTR sink and source congestion prices). The monthly total of excess hourly congestion credits and FTR Auction net revenues remaining after distribution to ARRs are used to proportionately reduce any remaining FTR target deficiencies in all hours of the month. Any additional excess monthly congestion revenues are allocated to previous deficient months of the planning period.

Balancing Credits: Total Balancing Transmission Congestion Charges (including MISO and NYISO real-time Market-to-Market adjustments and inadvertent interchange congestion contribution) are allocated among the PJM market participants in proportion to their real-time load (de-rated for transmission losses) plus their real-time PJM exports as a percentage of the total PJM load (excluding losses) and exports.

Reconciliation Charges and Credits: Retail load schedules with reconciliation data (in kWh) provided by the applicable EDC are reconciled on an hourly basis using the applicable source/sink congestion price on a two-month billing lag.

Planning Period Congestion Uplift

(OpAgr Schedules 5.2.5 & 5.2.6 Manual 28, Section 8)

For planning years in which the sum of actual Transmission Congestion credits paid to FTR holders during the planning year was less than the sum of their FTR Targets, Planning Period Congestion Uplift credits are awarded to the FTR holders at the end of the planning year (May) to completely fulfill those remaining FTR Target deficiencies. Planning Period Congestion Uplift credits and Planning Period Congestion Uplift charges can only occur at the end of the Annual Planning Period (which runs from June 1st through May 31st), so they will only apply to May monthly billing statements.

The “Planning Period Congestion Uplift credit” is a “make-whole” congestion credit to FTR holders to satisfy any previously unfulfilled FTR Target Credits that remain at the end of the planning year. A summary of FTR Targets and all applicable Congestion Credits broken down by month can be viewed in the “Cross-Monthly Congestion Credit Summary” report in MSRS. Select the “All Billed” option for the period from 6/1/12 through 5/31/13 to see the complete set of details.

The “Planning Period Congestion Uplift charge” is the participant’s share of the allocated costs of providing the Uplift credits. Charges are allocated to FTR holders in proportion to their net positive total FTR Target Credits for the planning year. Details of this charge allocation can be viewed in the “Congestion Uplift Charge Summary” report in MSRS.

The calculation for the Uplift charge is: (positive FTR Target credit / Total PJM Positive FTR Target Credit) * PJM Total FTR and ARR Uplift Credit. The uplift process is also outlined in Manual 28, sections 8.1 and 8.4.4

Transmission Losses

(OpAgr Schedules 1-3.2.5, 3.4.2, & 5.4-5.5 Manual 28, Section 9)

The increased costs of energy due to transmission losses represented in the PJM network model are assessed to market participants based on the loss component of LMPs, and the revenues collected are allocated to market participants’ serving load and delivering PJM exports (that pay for PJM transmission service).

Day Ahead Charges: Day-ahead Transmission Loss charges are calculated hourly as the sum of day-ahead withdrawal loss values (i.e., all cleared day-ahead demand/decrement/load response bids and sale transactions priced at the applicable locations’ day-ahead loss prices) minus day-ahead injection loss values (i.e., all cleared day-ahead generation/increment offers and purchase transactions priced at the applicable locations’ day-ahead loss prices). Explicit loss charges for day-ahead energy transactions are calculated hourly and equal the scheduled MWh times the difference between day-ahead sink and source loss prices. These charges are assessed to the buyer (or point-to-point transmission customer, if applicable).

Balancing Charges: Balancing Loss charges are calculated for each five minute interval as balancing withdrawal loss values (i.e., all deviations between demand/decrement/load response bids and sale transactions cleared day-ahead versus real-time load, without losses, and sale transactions priced at one-twelfth of the applicable locations’ real-time loss prices) minus balancing injection loss values (i.e., all deviations between generation/increment offers and purchase transactions cleared day-ahead versus real-time generation and purchase transactions priced at one-twelfth of the applicable locations’ real-time loss prices). In situations where five minute energy position interval data has not been provided (including all day-ahead energy position data), the energy position value provided will be scaled or flat-profiled across each of the five minute intervals of the provided period in order to obtain five minute interval energy positions and deviations. Charges may be positive or negative depending on the direction of the real-time deviation from the day-ahead energy position, and totals are summed for each hour.

Explicit loss charges for balancing energy transactions are calculated for each five minute interval and equal any real-time deviations from day-ahead transaction MW times one-twelfth of the difference between real-time sink and source loss prices. In situations where five minute energy position interval data has not been provided (including all day-ahead energy position data), the energy position value provided will be flat-profiled across each of the five minute intervals of the provided period in order to obtain five minute interval energy positions and deviations. Charges may be positive or negative depending on the direction of the real-time deviation from the day-ahead energy position, and totals are summed for each hour. These charges are assessed to the buyer (or point-to-point transmission customer, if applicable).

Credits: Total hourly loss revenues, both day-ahead and balancing (including loss contribution of inadvertent interchange and spot market energy imbalance) allocated as hourly credits based on ratio shares of real-time load (without losses) plus exports that pay for transmission service (with non-firm exports receiving a reduced percentage of their allocation).

Reconciliation Charges: Retail load schedules with reconciliation data (in kWh) provided by the applicable EDC are reconciled on an hourly basis using the applicable source/sink loss price on a two-month billing lag.

Reconciliation Credits: Retail load schedules with reconciliation data (in kWh) provided by the applicable EDC are reconciled on an hourly basis using a $/MWh billing determinant calculated as the total loss credits divided by the total MWh of PJM real-time load plus exports (that pay for transmission service, with non-firm exports receiving a reduced percentage of their allocation) on a two-month billing lag.

Load Response

(OpAgr, just prior to Schedule 2 Manual 28, Section 11)

Credits: Day-ahead and real-time economic and real-time pre-emergency and emergency load response credits are provided to CSPs equal to the reduced MWs times LMP. In situations where five- minute interval data has not been provided, the Load Response energy value provided will be scaled or flat-profiled across each of the five minute intervals of the provided period in order to obtain five minute interval energy positions. Those MW positions are then multiplied by one-twelfth of the applicable interval real-time zonal or aggregate LMP to determine credits, which are then summed for the hour.

Charges: For day-ahead and real-time economic load response, the charges are allocated to all real-time load where load is served in a zone that has benefitted from load reductions plus real-time exports. For pre-emergency and emergency load response, all balancing energy market participants are allocated charges using the same method as for PJM emergency energy purchases.

Synchronized Reserve

(OpAgr Schedules 1-3.2.3A & 3.3.5 and OATT Schedule 5 Manual 28, Section 6)

PJM conducts synchronized reserve markets to ensure the capability of synchronized generation and economic load response that can be converted fully into energy within ten minutes.

Day Ahead Credits: Day-ahead Synchronized Reserve Market credits are paid hourly to pool-scheduled or self-scheduled resources that are assigned synchronized reserve MWs within the day-ahead market by multiplying the hourly day-ahead synchronized reserve MWs assigned by the day-ahead synchronized reserve market clearing price.

Balancing Credits: Balancing Synchronized Reserve Market credits for pool and self-scheduled resources are calculated for each five minute interval and equal the difference between the capped real-time synchronized reserve assignment and the day-ahead synchronized reserve assignment multiplied by one-twelfth of the applicable reserve zone’s real-time synchronized reserve market clearing price (SRMCP). Resources failing to provide the capped real-time synchronized reserve assignment during a synchronized reserve event are assessed a shortfall charge equal to the product of the applicable real-time SRMCP and the lesser of the amount of the MW shortfall during the event or the capped real-time synchronized reserve assignment MW for all five-minute intervals the resource was assigned or self-scheduled for real-time synchronized reserve during the Operating Day. Additional lost opportunity cost credits are provided to pool-scheduled synchronized reserve resources for any portion of the total day-ahead and real-time synchronized reserve offer plus opportunity cost, energy use cost, and start-up cost not recovered via the total day-ahead and balancing Synchronized Reserve Market Clearing Price revenues less any shortfall charges. If applicable, additional profits from other reserve markets and/or the energy market (Market Revenue Neutrality Offset) or the cost attributable to a reserve market buy back (Opportunity Cost Credit Owed) for the same five-minute interval are also included as additional offsets in the lost opportunity cost credit determination.

Charges: PJM LSEs that are not part of an agreement to share reserves with external entities have an hourly synchronized reserve obligation equal to their real-time load (without losses) ratio share of their applicable reserve zone or active sub-zone total assignments (adjusted for any bilateral synchronized reserve transactions). For each hour of the Operating Day, Synchronized Reserve Market Clearing Price charges are calculated for each applicable reserve zone or active sub-zone based on the adjusted obligation ratio shares times the sum of total PJM day-ahead and balancing Synchronized Reserve market clearing price credits adjusted for shortfall charges. In addition, Synchronized Reserve lost opportunity cost charges are calculated each hour for each applicable reserve zone or active sub-zone by allocating the total PJM synchronized reserve lost opportunity cost credits for the hour to market participants that do not meet their hourly obligation, in proportion to their synchronized reserve purchases for the hour. Resources that fail to provide assigned synchronized reserve during a synchronized reserve event also incur a retroactive penalty charge. This charge is determined by multiplying the retroactive penalty MWs times the RT SRMCP for all real-time settlement intervals the resource was assigned for self-scheduled to provide synchronized reserve for a duration immediately preceding the synchronized reserve event.

Reconciliation Charges: Retail load schedules with reconciliation data (in kWh) provided by the applicable EDC are reconciled on an hourly basis using the applicable location’s (reserve zone or active sub-zone and non-zone) $/MWh billing determinant calculated as the total applicable location’s Synchronized Reserve charges divided by the total MWh of PJM real-time load served in that location on a two-month billing lag.

Day Ahead Credits: Day-ahead Secondary Reserve Market credits are paid hourly to resources that are assigned secondary reserve MWs within the day-ahead market by multiplying the hourly day-ahead secondary reserve MWs assigned by the day-ahead secondary reserve market clearing price.

Balancing Credits: Balancing Secondary Reserve Market credits for pool and self-scheduled resources are calculated for each five minute interval and equal the difference between the capped real-time secondary reserve assignment (including any reductions for shortfall MWs) and the day-ahead secondary reserve assignment multiplied by one-twelfth of the applicable reserve zone’ real-time secondary reserve clearing price (SecRMCP). Additional lost opportunity cost credits are provided to pool-scheduled secondary reserve resources for each five minute interval for any portion of secondary reserve opportunity costs not recovered via the total day-ahead and balancing secondary reserve market clearing price revenues. If applicable, additional profits from other reserve markets and/or the energy market (Market Revenue Neutrality Offset) or the cost attributable to a reserve market buy back (Opportunity Cost Credit Owed) for the same five-minute interval are also included as additional offsets to the lost opportunity cost credit determination.

Charges: PJM LSEs that are not part of an agreement to share reserves with external entities have an hourly secondary reserve obligation equal to their real-time load (without losses) ratio share of their applicable reserve market’s zone or active sub-zone total real-time secondary reserve supplied (adjusted for any bilateral secondary reserve transactions). For each hour of the Operating Day, Secondary Reserve Market Clearing Price charges are calculated for each applicable reserve market zone and active sub-zone based on the obligation ratio share times the sum of total day-ahead and balancing PJM Secondary Reserve market clearing price credits. In addition, Secondary Reserve lost opportunity cost charges are calculated for each hour and for each applicable reserve market zone or active sub-zone by allocating the total PJM Secondary Reserve lost opportunity credits to market participants in proportion to their Secondary Reserve obligation ratio share for the hour.
