(A)The 50 hours per year for non-emergency situations can be used to supply power as
part of a financial arrangement with another entity if all of the following conditions
are met:
(1) The engine is dispatched by the local balancing authority or local transmission
and distribution system operator;
(2) The dispatch is intended to mitigate local transmission and/or distribution
limitations so as to avert potential voltage collapse or line overloads that could
lead to the interruption of power supply in a local area or region.
(3) The dispatch follows reliability, emergency operation or similar protocols that
follow specific NERC, regional, state,public utility commission or local
standards or guidelines.
(4) The power is provided only to the facility itself or to support the local
transmission and distribution system.
(5) The owner or operator identifies and records the entity that dispatches the engine
and the specific NERC, regional, state, public utility commission or local
standards or guidelines that are being followed for dispatching the engine. The
local balancing authority or local transmission and distribution system operator
may keep these records on behalf of the engine owner or operator.
