Can you make sure that the Toronto Office is not blowing their minds on costs. ---------------------- Forwarded by John J Lavorato/Corp/Enron on 09/20/2000 07:37 AM --------------------------- From: Kevin M Presto @ ECT 09/18/2000 05:29 PM To: John J Lavorato/Corp/Enron@Enron, Mark Dana Davis/HOU/ECT@ECT cc: Lloyd Will/HOU/ECT@ECT, Mitch Robinson/Corp/Enron@Enron Subject: PI Installation Report I totally support having a separate marketing and trading team in Ontario to focus on the opening of that market. However, with respect to creating a redundant physical system operation/real-time unit monitoring/dispatch function in Ontario, it simply does not make economic or logistical sense. With the integration of the 6 peaker plants into our operation and the associated IT support, control area operations, plant operations, hourly trading, and real-time monitoring system here in Houston, we could provide all the necessary tools and support personnel necessary to perform this function from Houston. All the critical trading information would obviously be available to the Ontario office, yet they would not have to be burdened by the additional overhead to build a stand alone physical operation. From my standpoint, it just doesn't make sense to re-create the physical capabilities the Houston office has developed over the past two years. The Ontario guys are doing a great job and I like their aggressive attitude, however, rationale business decisions should still prevail. Your thoughts? ---------------------- Forwarded by Kevin M Presto/HOU/ECT on 09/18/2000 05:01 PM --------------------------- Lloyd Will 09/18/2000 03:41 PM To: Garrett Tripp/TOR/ECT@ECT, Paul Devries/TOR/ECT@ECT, Jan Wilson/TOR/ECT@ECT, Jeff Borg/TOR/ECT@ECT cc: Mitch Robinson/Corp/Enron@Enron, Kevin M Presto/HOU/ECT@ECT, Dana Davis/HOU/ECT@ECT, Edward D Baughman/HOU/ECT@ECT Subject: PI Installation Report Attached is the data you requested today. The schematic detail requested can be found in the email attachment at the bottom of this email. Please also contact Ed Baughman on the TIE proposal for dispatching, scheduling and trading services that was recently done to leverage of the existing Genco facilities and staff. On the dedicated ring downs all work was co-ordinated by Darren Adamik (713-853-4764) if you require additional details. Generally it will take 4 staff for a 24 hour operation plus one vacation/sick relief. Depending on the complexity of the operation you will have to determine the level of industry expertise. A good plan would be to hire a senior lead utility type and then bring on junior staff. The quality and quantity of staff will likely be based on the value at risk and the complexity of dispatching these units. If you consider the operation critical a diesel and UPS will be required. Plasma displays run $10,000 to $15,000 per display plus any switching/av equipment. We have a PI consultant on contract that could be available for your PI project - typically $ 150.00 per hour plus travel and expenses. The above assumes that no special hardware/software is required from The IMO to dispatch these units. ______________________________________________________________________________ _______________ I have also attached the initial PI project spreadsheet for your review and the following email for our PI order.
