<strong>Dispatch</strong> Data – Ramp Rates<br />

Do wind and solar generators require the ability to submit ramp<br />

rates and break points? Should the <strong>IESO</strong> assume a common<br />

ramp rate for variable generators as dictated by fuel type?<br />

• In Ontario, ramp rates vary from facility to facility<br />

• Solar generators indicated that ramp rates can vary at a facility<br />

depending on output level<br />

• No need to restrict variable generators ability to submit ramp rates<br />

and break points<br />

Decision: Variable generators will have the ability to submit up to 5<br />

ramp rates (up and down) and break points<br />
