SIR074 INCENTIVIZING VER AND VIRTUAL PARTICIPATION IN DAY-AHEAD MARKET, MMU SPP Comments SPP is open to discussions around 1) incentivizing more VER participation in the day-ahead market, 2) incentivizing more virtual energy participation in the day-ahead market, and 3) allocation of measurable costs to causers, but SPP also recognizes that there are numerous views on the best design to accomplish these goals.
