For Real-Time Tags for interchange transactions 4 hours or more from Ramp start time, what is the required submission time?

For interchange transactions that are scheduled to start 4 hours or more from the ramp start time, the requirement is to submit Real-Time Tags 120 minutes, or 2 hours, prior to the designated ramp start time. This submission window is established to ensure that all necessary information is communicated and processed in a timely manner, allowing system operators and market participants to properly prepare for the upcoming interchange.

Real-Time Tags are vital in managing and tracking energy transactions, and adhering to the timing requirements helps maintain the integrity and reliability of the electric grid. The 120-minute timeline allows sufficient time for coordination among various entities involved in the energy exchange, thereby supporting operational efficiency and reliability in real-time operations.
