1 Natural Gas Pathways: Towards a Clean and Renewable Energy Future for California External Affairs & Environmental Strategy Southern California Gas Company 2015
2 California s Dual Emissions Challenge Federal Clean Air Act and California Climate Change Initiative FEDERAL CLEAN AIR ACT Reduce SMOG by 75-80% before the next 20 years CA CLIMATE GOALS (AB32) GOVERNOR S EO: By 2050, reduce GHG emissions to 80% of 1990 Measures to Reduce Smog and GHG Emissions Drive Today s Energy and Environmental Agenda Natural Gas will Play an Increasing Role as a Solution
3 And, we have a CLEAR FOCUS THE TRANSPORTATION SECTOR Major Ozone (NOx) Emissions Sources in South Coast Air Basin 80% of the region s SMOG 40% of its GHG emissions
4 Start with the BIGGEST POLLUTERS Top NOx Source Categories SCAQMD NOx Heavy & Medium Duty Trucks Off Road Equipment Cars Light Duty Trucks Light-Heavy Duty Trucks Source: CARB Staff Report for 8-Hour Ozone State Implementation Plan Emission Inventory Submittal TONS PER DAY
5 NGV Game Changer New Near-Zero Truck Engine to be Ready for Prime Time SoCalGas working with agencies and engine manufacturers to deliver truck engine 90% lower emissions for 2018! Tailpipe emissions the same as emissions from generating electricity to run similar truck on electricity, years before heavyduty EV trucks ready for the market Near Zero Emission Natural Gas Engine <0.02 g NOx 5
6 Technology Transfer and Transportation Pathways SoCalGas Transportation Pathway focuses on natural gas vehicles in heavy duty sectors, which represent the largest share of both ozone/greenhouse gas problem. Technology transferrable to other sectors: Current Focus Expanding Focus Transit/Fleet Vehicles Heavy Duty Trucks Short/Long Haul Cargo Handling Equipment Locomotives Short/Long Haul Marine Vessels CNG LNG
7 Remaining Emissions Relative to 2010 Current State GHG Pathway -- Focused on Electrification Will Misses Ozone Deadlines 100% 90% 80% 70% 60% 50% 40% 30% South Coast Air Quality Management District 2050 CARB Statewide GHG Target Reductions need to be achieved Faster & Sooner than current statewide GHG reduction goals 20% 10% 75 ppb ozone standard 80 ppb ozone standard 0% CA Statewide CO 2 South Coast Target NO x Reduction necessary to meet Federal Ozone Standards 7 Use of Natural Gas in Transportation Sector can help achieve ozone standard sooner
8 California Climate Change Policy Make Room for Near-Zero End Uses and Low Carbon Gas California focused on electrifying end uses and de-carbonizing electricity Electrify transportation Electrify energy end uses De-carbonize generation SoCalGas focused on near-zero end use technology and de-carbonizing the pipeline Near-zero NGV s Near-zero gas technology Decarbonize gas supply Hydrogen blending Renewable methane feedstocks It s NOT Either/Or. It IS Both/And!
9 The Natural Gas Pathway for Homes and Businesses: Source Efficiency
10 De-Carbonizing Electricity: Natural Gas Stationary Use Pathways The move toward nearzero emission technology focuses on: Distributed Generation Small-scale Generation Matched with Renewables Power Generation with Carbon Capture Not just Solar and Wind Fuel Cells Micro-turbines Combined Heat & Power
11 De-Carbonizing the Pipeline: Waste or Biomass To Hydrogen or Biomethane
12 De-Carbonizing the Pipeline: Electrolysis of Excess Renewable Electricity (Power-to-Gas)
13 Power-to-Gas Projects: Provides green hydrogen pathway and grid storage 2MW Power-to-Gas Demonstration Plant (Falkenhagen, Germany) First power-to-gas plant to inject hydrogen into the natural gas grid (August 2013) 30 projects launched in Europe to date Hydrogenics Plant (Stuttgart, Germany) Uses a PEM electrolyzer to produce H2 from water. Uses CO2 from biogas plant. Injects CH4 in pipeline system
14 SoCalGas Facilitating Cleaner Energy Options for Our Customers RD&D of cleaner, more efficient natural gas technologies, inc. P2G at UC Irvine. New State Natural Gas Utilization Policy Offering Compression Services to facilitate development of NGV market Offering Biogas Conditioning Services to facilitate development of renewable natural gas market Proposing Distributed Energy Services tariff to facilitate more efficient use of heat and power In the future, considering LNG and Hydrogen Production Services as energy economy moves to cleaner fuels
15 Complying with AB 32 What Can Cities Do? AB 32 Programs: Energy Efficiency RPS LCFS Public Buildings/Facilities Solar, Wind, Geothermal, BioGas City Fleets Cap and Trade AHSC Program
16 Cap and Trade» Over $2.2 billion in cumulative revenue to state as of May 2015» Potential state revenues of $12-45 billion through 2020 as estimated by Legislative Analyst s Office» All auction revenues are deposited in Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund (GGRF) and used to reduce GHG emissions 16
17 Use of Cap and Trade Revenues» Three-year investment plan developed by Dept of Finance and administered by state agencies in accordance with guidelines developed by ARB» Three main areas: 1) Sustainable Communities and Clean Transportation (~75%) 2) Energy Efficiency and Clean Energy (~15%) 3) Natural Resources and Waste Diversion (~10%)» Allocate at least 25% to benefit disadvantaged communities 17
18 Affordable Housing and Sustainable Communities (AHSC) Program» $130 million administered by Strategic Growth Council in FY , potentially increasing to $400 million in FY » Fund integrated land use and transportation projects supporting low-carbon transportation options» SCAG cities and counties applied for $52 million (20.8% of total submitted projects), $27.5 million awarded (22.5%)» $15 million per city cap 18

25 Power-to-Gas Definition Wikipedia Power-to-gas (often abbreviated P2G) is a technology that converts electrical power to a gas fuel use electricity to split water into hydrogen and oxygen by means of electrolysis the resulting hydrogen is injected into the natural gas grid or is used in transport or industry combine the hydrogen with carbon dioxide and convert the two gases to methane (see natural gas) using a methanation reaction such as the Sabatier reaction the methane may then be fed into the natural gas grid Efficiency The power-to-gas methane method is to combine hydrogen from an electrolyzer with carbon dioxide and convert the two gases to methane 25
