Description
Summary:FERC order 755 and FERC order 784 provide pay-for-performance requirements and direct utilities and independent system operators to consider speed and accuracy when purchasing frequency regulation. Independent System Operators (ISOs) have differing implementations of pay-for-performance. This paper focuses on the PJM implementation. PJM is a regional transmission organization in the northeastern United States that serves 13 states and the District of Columbia. PJM's implementation employs a two part payment based on the Regulation Market Capability Clearing price (RMCCP) and the Regulation Market Performance Clearing Price (RMPCP). The performance credit includes a mileage ratio. Both the RMCCP and RMPCP employ an actual performance score. Using the PJM remuneration model, this paper outlines the calculations required to estimate the maximum potential revenue from participation in arbitrage and regulation in day-ahead markets using linear programming. Historical PJM data from 2014 and 2015 was then used to evaluate the maximum potential revenue from a 5 MWh, 20 MW system based on the Beacon Power Hazle Township flywheel plant. Finally, a heuristic trading algorithm that does not require perfect foresight was evaluated against the results of the optimization algorithm.
