Why OP-14 Compliance Matters

Effective July 3, 2024 (Revision 34), ISO-NE’s Operating Procedure No. 14 (OP-14) outlines critical technical requirements for:

• Generators & Dispatchable Asset Related Demands (DARDs)
• Continuous Storage Facilities (CSFs)
• Demand Response Resources (DRRs)
• Alternative Technology Regulation Resources (ATRRs)
  
  

This includes rigorous expectations for telemetry, revenue metering, dynamic modeling, dispatch communications, voltage/reactive control.

Non-compliance may result in:

• Market participation delays
• Testing rejections
• Financial penalties
• Disqualification from ISO dispatch
