Energy | An entity established tocoordinate short-term operations to maintain system stability and achieveleast-cost dispatch. The dispatch provides backup supplies,short-term excess sales, reactive power support, and spinning reserve. Historically, some of these services were provided on an unpriced basisas part of the members' utility franchise obligations. Coordinatingshort-term operations includes the aggregation and firming of power fromvarious generators, arranging exchanges between generators, andestablishing (or enforcing) the rules of conduct for wholesaletransactions. The pool may own, manage and/or operate thetransmission lines ("wires") or be an independent entity that manages thetransactions between entities.
