1.9.2 Planned Outages.

 

(a) A Generator Planned Outage shall be included in Generator Planned Outage schedules established prior to the scheduled start date for the outage, in accordance with standards and procedures specified in the PJM Manuals.

 

(b) The Office of the Interconnection shall conduct Generator Planned Outage scheduling for Capacity Resources in accordance with the Reliability Assurance Agreement, the Reliability Assurance Agreement-West, and the PJM Manuals and in consultation with the Members owning or controlling the output of Capacity Resources. A Market Participant shall not be expected to submit offers for the sale of energy or other services, or to satisfy delivery obligations, from all or part of a generation resource undergoing an approved Generator Planned Outage. If the Office of the Interconnection determines that approval of a Generator Planned Outage would significantly affect the reliable operation of the PJM Region, the Office of the Interconnection may withhold approval or withdraw a prior approval. Approval for a Generator Planned Outage of a Capacity Resource shall be withheld or withdrawn only as necessary to ensure the adequacy of reserves or the reliability of the PJM Region in connection with anticipated implementation or avoidance of Emergency procedures. If the Office of the Interconnection withholds or withdraws approval, it shall coordinate with the Market Participant owning or controlling the resource to reschedule the

Generator Planned Outage of the Capacity Resource at the earliest practical time. The Office of the Interconnection shall if possible propose alternative schedules with the intent of minimizing the economic impact on the Market Participant of a Generator Planned Outage.

 

(c) The Office of the Interconnection shall conduct Transmission Planned Outage scheduling in accordance with procedures specified in, as applicable, the East Transmission Owners Agreement or West Transmission Owners Agreement and the PJM Manuals, and in accordance with the following procedures:

 

  (i) Transmission Owners shall submit Transmission Planned Outage schedules one year in advance for all outages that are expected to exceed five working days duration or that are anticipated to result in significant system impacts, with regular (at least monthly) updates as new information becomes available.

 

  (ii) Transmission Owners shall submit notice of all Transmission Planned Outages to the Office of the Interconnection by the first day of the month preceding the month the outage will commence, with updates as new information becomes available.

 

  (iii) If notice of a Transmission Planned Outage is not provided by the first day of the month preceding the month the outage will commence, and if such outage is determined by the Office of the Interconnection to have the potential to cause transmission system congestion, then the Office of the Interconnection may require the Transmission Owner to implement an alternative outage schedule to reduce or avoid the congestion. The Office of the Interconnection shall perform this analysis and notify the Transmission Owner in a timely manner if it will require rescheduling of the outage.

 

  (iv) The Office of the Interconnection shall post notice of Transmission Planned Outages on OASIS upon receipt of such notice from the Transmission Owner; provided, however, that the Office of the Interconnection shall not post on OASIS notice of any component of a Transmission Planned Outage to the extent such component shall directly reveal a generator outage. In such cases, the Transmission Owner, in addition to providing notice to the Office of Interconnection as required above, concurrently shall inform the affected Generation Owner of such outage, limiting such communication to that necessary to describe the outage and to coordinate with the Generation Owner on matters of safety to persons, facilities, and equipment. The Transmission Owner shall not notify any other Market Participant of such outage and shall arrange any other necessary coordination through the Office of the Interconnection.

 

In addition, if the Office of the Interconnection determines that transmission maintenance schedules proposed by one or more Members would significantly affect the efficient and reliable operation of the PJM Region, the Office of the Interconnection may

establish alternative schedules, but such alternative shall minimize the economic impact on the Member or Members whose maintenance schedules the Office of the Interconnection proposes to modify.

 

(d) The Office of the Interconnection shall coordinate resolution of outage or other planning conflicts that may give rise to unreliable system conditions. The Members shall comply with all maintenance schedules established by the Office of the Interconnection.
