FRRS Pilot Overview
1. November 13, 2013: Board Approval
2. February 25, 2013: First day of Pilot
3. July 16, 2013: ERCOT Board approves request to extend
the FRRS pilot to February 28, 2014
4. February 28, 2014 Pilot project ended
5. Three Resources participated in the pilot– Participant 1 was a nominal 36 MW battery in Winkler/Ector County
– Participant 2 was a nominal 1 MW battery in Harris County
– Participant 3 was a nominal 0.1 MW fleet Electric Vehicle Charging Station in
Tarrant County

Summary of Findings1. The introduction of FRRS improves ERCOT’s ability to
arrest frequency decay during unit trips.
2. FRRS Pilot Resources generally followed ERCOT FRRS deployments and responded automatically using local frequency detecting techniques.
3. When deployed, FRRS reduces the rate of change of frequency and regulation deployed to conventional Resources.
4. Observed lower quantities offered for FRRS-down and an overall lower performance for FRRS-down.

Post Pilot
• NPRR 581 became effective on Operating Day 3-1-14
• Resources can offer in and participate in Regulation and
follow a Fast Responding Regulation Signal
• ERCOT continues to benefit from Resources providing
FRRS
• Future Ancillary Service Team (FAST) continues to
work on improving Ancillary Services. (Definition of
services, procurement, deployment and settlement)
