Edward Cazalet  commented on ENERGYINTEROP-609:
-----------------------------------------------

My view. Fundamentally, all VENs and VTNs are Resources and are not Parties.  A VTN is a virtual Resource that aggregates (and may control or manage) a set of VEN Resources.  Resources, VTNs and VENs are not Parties, they are Resources owned and managed by Parties.  A Party can own and manage more than one Resource and hence several VTNs and VENs.  Behind an ESI a Resource can be a building, a floor, a washing machine, or the motor in a washing machine.  All may be owned by a single Party and all can be viewed as curtailment or dispatchable Resources, VENs and VTNs.  Whether the Resources behind an ESI are exposed as VENs is up to the owning Party.

I advocate the Transactive Energy Model but Transactive Energy relies on a dispatchable control model inside the ESI.  The VEN/VTN Resource model works there for Transactive Energy.  Others that support the VEN/VTN model from the customer to the system operator can also cleanly work with VTNs and VENs as Resources and not Parties.

I propose that VENs and VTNs not be represented as Parties in EI and only owned by Parties.
