1 Hetch Hetchy Integrated Resource Plan Commission Meeting May 23, 2017

2 Today s Presentation 1. Introduction to IRP 2. IRP Applied to Hetch Hetchy Program 3. IRP Approach 4. IRP Results 5. Discussion SFPUC Power Enterprise Hetch Hetchy Integrated Resource Plan Commission Workshop / May 23,

3 Introduction to IRP Integrated Resource Planning provides many benefits to consumers and to the environment. It is a planning process that evaluates scenarios to provide customers with the lowest cost at which a utility can deliver reliable energy and meet its policy objectives.

4 Usefulness of IRP Useful for... Evaluating the costeffectiveness of supply options Service reliability planning Comparing policy options and scenarios over long-term horizons (25 years) Not intended to... Replace budgeting and capital planning processes Replace rate setting processes SFPUC Power Enterprise Hetch Hetchy Integrated Resource Plan Commission Workshop / May 23,

5 IRP Analysis Goals Identify plausible assumptions accounting for uncertainty: Hydro generation Distributed energy resources Natural gas and power prices Load growth Identify a path forward that is reasonable Adapt as market and operational conditions change SFPUC Power Enterprise Hetch Hetchy Integrated Resource Plan Commission Workshop / May 23,

11 Unique External Challenges Energy business models and technologies have changed significantly in recent years. Three SFPUC challenges: Industry Deregulation Water-First Policy Water Supply Agreement SFPUC Power Enterprise Hetch Hetchy Integrated Resource Plan Commission Workshop / May 23,

12 Hydro and Renewables Large hydro is GHG free, but not recognized as a CA RPS renewable resource. Renewable resources often are valued at a premium due to state RPS requirements. SFPUC Power Enterprise Hetch Hetchy Integrated Resource Plan Commission Workshop / May 23,

32 Summary of 24 year NPV Costs $342 MM Costs Revenues Revenues Scenario 1 Scenario 3 Capital Costs account for the majority of the savings SFPUC Power Enterprise Hetch Hetchy Integrated Resource Plan Commission Workshop / May 23,

33 Qualitative Factors FACTOR Capital Investment Risk MAINTAIN CURRENT GENERATION Long-term debt on uneconomic assets DEFER MOCCASIN More adaptable to market conditions Market Exposure Risk Significant uneconomic oversupply Balanced supply and demand Supply Diversity Predominantly hydro generation only Some flexibility to increase supply diversity Load and Operational Flexibility Generation commitments exceed load; water first Some flexibility to adapt to changing conditions Impact of Variable Weather Conditions Greater financial losses during wet years More market exposure during dry years SFPUC Power Enterprise Hetch Hetchy Integrated Resource Plan Commission Workshop / May 23,

34 Qualitative Factors FACTOR Environmental Performance MAINTAIN CURRENT GENERATION No fossil assets; few market purchases DEFER MOCCASIN No fossil assets; flexibility to choose generation Technology Leadership/ RPS Content Predominantly large hydro generation only Some flexibility to choose RPS sources in the future Ownership/ Independence No new third-party obligations Option to develop new SFPUC resources Service Redundancy Intrinsic Value Excess generation capacity readily available Preservation of Hetch Hetchy legacy More reliant on market Deferral of investment in historically significant asset SFPUC Power Enterprise Hetch Hetchy Integrated Resource Plan Commission Workshop / May 23,

35 Power IRP Key Conclusions 1. SFPUC generation far exceeds needs, unless there is significant new load growth. 2. Generation from Moccasin is uneconomic, unless market prices increase significantly. 3. Balancing load and generation insulates SFPUC from volatility in market power pricing.
