Note: 1. DBES cost is a credit to system costs and therefore is shown as a negative number here to differentiate it from the other types of Reliability Costs. 2. BES deployment costs include two parts: the cost for Power Balance and the cost for CSC Congestion. Due to Relaxed Balanced Schedule, the cost paid for Power Balance covers both the difference between ERCOT load forecast and QSE's schedule and the difference between QSE's Relaxed scheduled load and the load it would schedule should RBS were not allowed. The cost for Power Balance is not further divided accordingly because currently we do not have a way to differentiate these two types of Power Balance costs.
