About This Metric
Measure the duration and number of times EEA1, EEA2 and EEA3 alerts are issued and measure any unserved energy related to EEA3 events resulting from the interruption of firm load due to capacity and/or energy deficiencies.
The frequency and duration of EEA alerts over a period of times provides an indication of performance measured at a BA level or Interconnection level. As historical data is gathered, trends in future reports will provide an indication of either decreasing or increasing adequacy in the electric supply system. This metric will also provide some benefit in developing a correlation between EEA events and planning reserve margins for future planning recommendations. There are no economic factors included in this metric.
