Glendora, California – Turlock Irrigation District (“TID”), which is a community owned, not-for-profit irrigation water and electric utility in central California, has gone live in the Western Energy Imbalance Market (“EIM”) with the Power Settlements (“PSCS”) SettleCore system, including both Visual Analytics and ISO Settlements operations.

PSCS’ Visual Analytics Module dashboard provides a 360-degree view, which displays the customer’s unit and portfolio performance in each 5-minute interval. Data points out-of-the-box include market schedules, ISO dispatch target, demand forecast, locational market prices, internal meter, resource-level generation cost, and customer profit and loss calculation (PNL). The Visual Analytics Module includes both a near real-time view for real-time operations and PNL analysis as well as a post-analytics view the following morning. 

TID is also utilizing the SettleCore – ISO Downloader Module for downloading all of its CAISO data and reporting needs, the Shadow Settlements Module for pre-settlement calculation and statement validations, the Settlements Analyzer Module for comparing any two Settlement statements to each other and drilling-down to the most granular billing determinants, and the Allocations Module for re-creating a settlement statement at the resource-level for all resources within the portfolio, including the charge code, time interval, quantity, price, and amount. 

Amanda Alberti, a Utility Analyst at TID, said the following about their implementation of SettleCore, “TID is extremely satisfied with the level of customer service Power Settlements provides. From the timely and attentive communication, helpful training, and friendly employees, they have exceeded our expectations. The SettleCore product itself is an essential tool to be able to disseminate a large amount of data in a timely manner. Visual Analytics provides so many snapshots of real-time data and is tremendously helpful to see how units are performing real-time in the CAISO market. The ease of highlighting variances in the settlement statements utilizing SettleCore’s shadow settlements has streamlined our settlements process. Additionally, we have also enjoyed the ability to easily export data to excel to be able to further review the data”.

“We are pleased to announce that Turlock Irrigation District is now live on the SettleCore platform in the Western EIM. They are a fantastic customer and we look forward to providing superior support to them for many years to come,” said David Dan, CEO of Power Settlements.
