As per your request, I examined the attached doc (Response of National Grid= US to Questions posed by the comission) My initial reaction is: 1) The simple answer to your question is: yes, I think the proposed governa= nce and organization structure can live with an LMP model. I am not familia= r with other MISO CM model, but at least in terms of LMP, my feeling is tha= t those are not mutually exclusive. It may be worth asking Ashley Brown 2) National Grid and other proponents of For-Profit-Transcos may have other= ideas on how to manage congestions (e.g. different reliability level produ= cts by customer segment). However, the attached paper makes no allusion to = avoid LMP and to introduce other congestion management models. The paper do= es not imply a physical model either. Your feeling may be right, but it doe= s not surface from the paper per se. 3) National Grid proposal is, in fact, an expanded version of the Southeast= Model proposed at the Mediation. It reinforces the role of the Transco Com= pany, preempting, to some extent, the role of the System Admininstrator. Th= is was a very controversial topic in the mediation: the System Adminstrator= was in charge of some functions to avoid potential bias. (particularly fr= om transmission companies who are not willing/able to transfer their T asse= ts) 4) National Grid will face a lot of resistance when selling this idea; Your= concerns on generation redispatch and long term transmission planning are = "surfaced" in the paper, by creating a concept of "core vs. additional" fun= ctions and a chinese wall, if necessary. But the perception of potential b= ias does exist. National Grid will probably face a lot of difficulty in " s= elling" this idea. Particularly when we get to the details LM -----Original Message----- From: =09Steffes, James D. =20 Sent:=09Monday, November 05, 2001 4:50 PM To:=09Maurer, Luiz; Stroup, Kerry; Roan, Michael; Nicolay, Christi L.

Don't = think they do a great job of managing the key fears - (1) generation redisp= atch and (2) long-term transmission plant over generation investments. =20 As I read this document, I get the strange feeling that NG is a physical-ri= ght player. Meaning, NG needs to build a model based on physical flows so = they can control (a) TTC/ATC and (b) use of non-firm transmission. =20 While the NG letter states that the "functions related to energy markets ca= n be performed by a disinterested third-party", NG specifically reserves as= a Core Function the "Ability to propose congestion pricing methodology". = Sure APX could go in and operate the balancing and CM system, but NG has th= e right to design subject to FERC procedures. Not sure what you guys think? =20 I will probably get back to Ashley Brown later this week.
