Metrics to Measure SCR-773 Performance 1. Trend and monitor the regulation deployed by hour. 2. Set target of 50 MW for total regulation deployed by hour for peak hours. 3. Set target of 85% for the number of intervals where regulation deployment was both up and down for peak hours. 4. Track the Regulation exhaustion rate for all hours (not to exceed 5%). 5. Using a 50MW filter, target 15 occurrences or less per month for regulation bias of six or more consecutive 5 minute intervals for peak hours.
