FERC-725T (Mandatory Reliability Standards for the Bulk-Power System: TRE Reliability Standards)

Reliability Standard BAL-001-TRE-01 applies to entities registered as Generator Owners, Generator Operators, and Balancing Authorities within the Texas RE region. Regional Reliability Standard BAL-001-TRE-01 is more comprehensive than the existing continent-wide Reliability Standards addressing frequency response, BAL-001-0.1a and BAL-003-0.1b in that the regional standard includes additional requirements and applies to generator owners and generator operators as well as balancing authorities. The expanded applicability of the regional Reliability Standard, thus, increases the reporting burden for entities that operate within the ERCOT Interconnection. The information collection requirements entail the setting or configuration of the Control System software, identification and recording of events, data retention, and submitting frequency measurable events to the compliance enforcement authority.
