The tariff we are drafting for the e-Trans project its a "load pay" tariff.
All the fixed costs are born by loads. Most of the capacity related anciallry
services also wind up with load serving entities, i.e., regulation, requency
response and operating reserves. Our trading operations would system face
congestion costs, losses and any mismatch between what they schedule and what
is delivered (balancing).

If you want to avoid real-time congestion costs, you can buy a Flowright and
obtain forward price certianty. We also provide for after the fact trading
of imbalances as well. Flowrights can be obtained in an auction or by
initial allocation. The initial allocations are phase out over four years
once there is a history of congestion costs on which market participants can
base auction bids. All parties existing rights are converted to Flowrights
so everyone is under the same tariff. Access fees are paid by all to the RTO
and used to pay the Transmission Owners for their revenue requirement.
Service to native load becomes an explicit purchase under the tariff, not
moving money from the left to the right pocket of a vertically integrated
utility.

What does this proposal imply about transmission pricing. We have debated
from time-to-time whether we would be better off with a pure "loads pay"
transmission pricing scheme because it would leave fewer places for utilities
to hide the ball (when they pay for transmission they are just transferring
money from one pocket to the other) and it would allow us to reach the
maximum number of counterparties for each MW (thereby increasing liquidity).
Where do we stand?

These questsions seem to be focus on the modularity of the product. This is
fine from the vendors' perspectives, however, from a Tariff perspective, it
hints at conceding to others' tariiffs/structures. There should be a few
questions that paint the entire Real Flow solution - even referencing that a
tariff is available.

Also, can I assume the entities listed are endorsing eTransMart? Or do they
not even know their name is referenced here?
