6 Conservation Potential Assessment (CPA) CADMUS has completed: District s 2017 CPA Augmented 2017 CPA draft 2016 Regional Building Stock Assessment (RBSA) with District sampling for some measures. New conservation supply curves were created (measures grouped into bundles by cost). The preliminary 2016 RBSA data and PUD service area sampling resulted in CPA results that show: Slightly less annual conservation available over the 20 year study period. Slightly larger contribution of conservation to winter on-peak period, depending on scenario. Portfolios selected the necessary conservation bundles needed to fill either a winter and/or annual load resource balance deficit. 6

27 Supply Side Resource Insights 1. Load growth impacts timing of resource need, after conservation. 1 st Year Need after New Conservation BAU Base Low High Energy N/A N/A N/A 2035 Capacity Capacity resources are attractive/needed in all scenarios, except Low Growth Case. Fossil fuel resources more cost competitive capacity resources. Demand response can be competitive depending on level of carbon costs, or in the absence of fossil fuel resources. Pumped hydro and battery storage resources provide capacity and are attractive choices, absent fossil fuel resources. 3. I-937 eligible renewable resources only selected when both an energy and REC need exists (e.g., High Growth Case). Snohomish PUD 2017 Integrated Resource Plan 27

28 Winter Capacity Need 1. Portfolios developed to meet winter capacity needs that had no access to fossil fuel resources satisfied all planning standards and required additional investment in: Demand Response Pumped Hydro Conservation (BAU Case only) 2. Portfolios without access fossil fuel peaking resources often yielded higher emissions and costs: Portfolio BAU Base Case Low High NPV without Fossil Fuels $ 891 MM $ 653 MM $ 317 MM $ 2,433 MM NPV with Fossil Fuels $ 702 MM $ 481 MM $ 317 MM $ 1,369 MM Portfolio No Fossil Premium $ 189 MM $ 172 MM $ - $ 1,064 MM Annual Emissions with Fossil Fuels 82,405 MT 15,276 MT 548 MT 307,015 MT Annual Emissions without Fossil Fuels 89,070 MT 142,365 MT 548 MT 189,848 MT Snohomish PUD 2017 Integrated Resource Plan 28

29 REC Modeling Assumptions Staff assumes that the district will need to meet the 15% renewables target 2020 through 2037 The District can meet Energy Independence Act (EIA) Renewable Portfolio Standard (RPS) targets by buying Renewable Energy Credits (RECs), eligible renewable resources or a combination of the two Modeled REC prices are based on the modeled cost to build a REC Generator REC Price = Levelized Cost of Wind Levelized Cost of Energy ~$43/REC in 2018 to $53/REC in 2037

30 EIA Renewables Compliance REC Modeling Assumptions 15% renewables target 2020 through 2037 REC Price = Levelized Cost of Wind Levelized Cost of Energy ~$43/REC in 2018 to $53/REC in 2037 Models cost to build a REC Generator 1. Lower cost portfolios select unbundled RECs, no energy added. Exception is High Growth Case that has an energy need; bundled resources are part of the optimal portfolio. 2. Compliance costs to satisfy 15% RPS target are high. Exploring use of the financial cost cap may be a future option, depending on future rulemaking. The Alternate Resource for 4% cost cap remains lower of District s embedded costs or market price. Alternate resource capacity costs should be based on lowest cost capacity resource given Board policy.

32 Discussion Snohomish PUD 2017 Integrated Resource Plan 32

33 Climate Change Policy and the IRP From the Climate Change Policy: Utilize integrated resource planning standards that: a) Consider the long-term costs and risks associated with greenhouse-gas-emitting generation sources and b) Consider a diversity of resource options that provide the optimum balance of environmental and economic elements. Staff Findings: In many scenarios, the least-cost and least-emission portfolio included a fossil fuel resource to address capacity needs.

34 EIA Compliance: Renewables RCW : (2)(a) Except as provided in (j) of this subsection, each qualifying utility shall use eligible renewable resources or acquire equivalent renewable energy credits, or any combination of them, to meet the following annual targets Staff Findings: A strategy of procuring renewable energy credits was the most cost-effective way for the PUD to meet EIA compliance standards under the target methodology. Ongoing monitoring is needed to assess the potential cost-effectiveness of EIA compliance through Cost Cap, and No Load Growth methodologies.
