Settlement / Registration Selection
ERCOT has multiple directions it could take regarding Settlements, Registration, and Transaction Management:
1. Modified Lodestar Solution (with upgrade)2. Implement Excelergy Solution 3. Implement Custom Solution
Considerations (costs, risks, and impacts) for alternatives:• Development (labor, licensing, hardware)• Integration (reliability, transaction integrity, scalability)• Maintenance (personnel skill-set, technology, vendor support)• Operation (transaction transparency, performance, security)• Business Impact (conversion, operation)
The goal is to reduce Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) while meeting the needs of the market.
