Subject: RE: [ws-calendar] About Resources in the definitions of Terms
A Party is an entity receiving services and making decision. A Node is a grid location, except where we use the term VTN or VEN as virtual nodes. A Resource is a device, a set of devices or a curtailment acting as a virtual resource. VENs may be viewed as Resources but the general concept of a Node is not a Resource. Resources may be located at a Node. I think It would be huge error to confuse a Resource as a Party or Node. Resources should stay as Resources. Table 5-1 is fine for Resources. Just leave it that way. It is a reasonable way to characterize resources in additions to the resource offer and resource requirements . Note that Table 5.3 ,Market Requirements, in my view is mislabeled. It should be Resource Requirements. These requirements are characteristics of a Resource that Parties may which to consider in VEN/VTN interactions to offer and dispatch resources. For interactions where the commodity is identified but not the resources, we can use concepts of availability and notification of Parties, but these should not be conflated with the limits on Resources.
