About ERCOT
The Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT) manages the flow of electric power to 27 million Texas customers - representing about 90 percent of the state's electric load. As the independent system operator (ISO) for the region, ERCOT schedules power on an electric grid that connects more than 54,100 miles of transmission lines and 1,250+ generation units, including Private Use Networks. ERCOT also performs financial settlement for the competitive wholesale bulk-power market and administers retail switching for 8 million premises in competitive choice areas. ERCOT is a membership-based 501(c)(4) nonprofit corporation, governed by a board of directors and subject to oversight by the Public Utility Commission of Texas and the Texas Legislature. ERCOT's members include consumers, cooperatives, generators, power marketers, retail electric providers, investor-owned electric utilities (transmission and distribution providers), and municipal-owned electric utilities.

RMS Energy Co, LLC
RMS Energy Co, LLC published an article examining how electromagnetic transient and positive-sequence studies answer different engineering questions, when weak-grid and converter-rich conditions may justify EMT analysis, why having a PSCAD model does not necessarily mean it is study-ready, the importance of model testing and cross-platform benchmarking, a disciplined EMT workflow supporting defensible interconnection decisions, and why EMT screening should begin earlier in project development.
