Mitigation Planning – ERCOT Protocols and Operating Guides

A mitigation plan is an organization’s proposal to reduce or alleviate the potentially harmful impact of alleged or confirmed violation(s) of the Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT) Protocols or Operating Guides.

Whether a violation is alleged (meaning that it is being evaluated by Texas RE) or confirmed, Texas Reliability Entity, Inc. (Texas RE) strongly encourages that the entity develop and submit a mitigation plan as early as possible, in order to assure the reliability of the power grid.

Upon completion of the mitigation plan, the entity must provide a signed letter that all required actions have been completed. The entity must include sufficient data or information to verify completion. Texas RE may request data or information and conduct follow-up assessments, spot checks, or audits as verification.

The mitigation plan form is posted in the Documents section below. Please submit all forms to protocols@texasre.org .
