  5. Parallel Flow Visualization – Challenges • Continuing to have “What if” scenarios • BPS by default is the forum for understanding the big picture • NERC Standards Coordination • BPS has included assumptions that NERC would modify standards • Interchange, Scheduling, and Coordination (INT) standards - INT-012 Intra-Balancing Authority Transaction Identification (FERC Order 693) • Interconnection Reliability Operations and Coordination (IRO) – IRO-006-EAST Transmission Loading Relief Procedure for the Eastern Interconnection • The timing for the changes to the INT and IRO standards should coincide with Parallel Flow Visualization moving into production • NAESB cannot set priority of NERC standards development nor can it direct the outcome Free Template from www.brainybetty.com

  6. Parallel Flow Visualization – Challenges (Contd.) • NERC SC requested NERC ORS to identify Reliability Gap • NAESB BPS and EC Co-chairs presented PFV requirements to ORS on Feb 8th. • ORS discussed the alternative presented by NERC Director Standards that NAESB develop requirements/standards for tagging Intra-BA transactions – no final action taken. • NERC INT standards will need to be coordinated with JESS Free Template from www.brainybetty.com

  7. Parallel Flow Visualization – Next Steps • March • Finalize Whitepaper / Address remaining open issues • April/May • Develop standards from Parallel Flow Visualization Permanent Solution White Paper • Vote to post standards/recommendation for 30-day formal comment period • Probability that BPS vote on recommendation may slide into June • June/July • Develop Late Comments for standards/recommendation Free Template from www.brainybetty.com
