1:15 p.m.–2:45 p.m.—Panel 2: 

Experience with Operator Actions 

Panel 2 will focus on the experience 

market participants have with out-ofmarket operator actions. In particular, 

this panel will explore the extent to 

which panelists believe such operator 

actions affect the operation and 

revenues/costs of market participants 

that own generation assets and serve 

load. Panelists will be asked to provide 

specific examples, based on their 

experience, of operator actions that they 

believe have negatively impacted the 

price formation process. To the extent 

possible, panelists will be asked to 

discuss differences among the 

approaches taken by the RTOs and ISOs 

to incorporate otherwise un-modeled 

constraints into the unit commitment 

and economic dispatch processes. 

Panelists will also be asked to comment 

on the information that would be most 

helpful to them in understanding why 

resources are committed for reasons 

other than economics and how those 

commitments affect prices and makewhole charges. Finally, panelists will be 

asked for their recommendations to 

improve the price formation process.

3:00 p.m.–4:30 p.m.—Panel 3: Options 

to Reduce the Market Impacts of 

Operator Actions 

Panel 3 will focus on practices that 

RTOs and ISOs have adopted, plan to 

adopt, or might consider adopting to 

incorporate otherwise un-modeled 

constraints (e.g., voltage constraints) 

into the unit commitment and economic 

dispatch processes. These practices 

include, but are not limited to: Pricing 

run enhancements to expand the types 

of resources that are eligible to set the 

clearing price for energy; adjustments to 

better align the market model with the 

physical operation of the system; 

transmission constraint relaxation; 

ramping products and reserve products 

that better reflect the costs of 

supplemental commitments operators 

might make to address uncertainty. 

Panelists will be asked to discuss the 

factors that influence the ability to 

adopt any of the above practices and to 

discuss the considerations made when 

choosing among these practices. 

Panelists will also be asked to discuss 

other options to better reflect currently 

un-priced operator actions in market 

clearing prices.
