1 Electric Energy Training US EPA Region 10 Seattle, WA April 24, 2012 April 24, 2012 The Regulatory Assistance Project 50 State Street, Suite 3 Montpelier, VT Phone: web:
2 Introducing RAP, Chris and Lisa RAP is a non-advocacy, non-profit organization providing technical and educational assistance to government officials on energy and environmental issues. RAP Principals all have extensive utility regulatory experience. 2
3 Introducing RAP, Chris and Lisa Chris James is a senior associate at RAP. He previously led Connecticut s climate and energy efforts at the CT DEP, and worked for EPA Region 10. Lisa Schwartz joined RAP in She previously worked for the Oregon Public Utility Commission and the Oregon Department of Energy. 3
4 Purpose & Goals of Training From RAP s Perspective: 1. Traditional energy sources and practices are expensive, polluting, and increasingly unsustainable. 2. Over their life cycle, energy efficiency (EE) and renewable energy (RE) are equal or lower cost, less polluting, and far more sustainable, and they boost reliability and security. 3. Environment and energy regulators have little communication, understanding of each other s work. 4. EPA is in a strong position to encourage EE/RE. 4

9 U.S. Energy Sources Overall 9
10 U.S. Electricity-Only Coal and nuclear share ~triple that of gas Supply-Side Resources i.e., supply power to the grid to meet demand Fossil (coal, natural gas, oil) Nuclear Renewable (hydro, wind, solar, etc.) 10
11 Electric System Fundamentals (1) Today, most electricity is generated by combustion of fuels to produce steam or exhaust which in turn drives a turbine. This combustion process emits criteria and toxic air pollutants and greenhouse gases (GHG). 11
12 EIA Electricity Flow Diagram (Quads, 1999) 12
13 Electric System Fundamentals (2) Electricity demand ( load ) must be dynamically balanced with supply Electricity can t be stored in volume Minor exceptions (e.g., pumped storage) Every time a light, motor, or machine is turned on, its load must be satisfied by a power plant Creates peak load capacity problems Accompanying cost peaks, pollution peaks 13
14 Electric System Fundamentals (2) Dynamic balancing historically achieved by intensive management of supply-side resources Reserve capacity, spinning reserves, etc. Increasingly addressed by Demand-Side measures: Energy Efficiency Typically produces permanent load reductions Demand Response (DR) Typically temporary load curtailment 14
15 2008 BPA Load Duration Curve
16 BPA Peak 100 Hours 2008
17 Electric System Fundamentals (3) Power plants can be close to the electrical loads they serve, but are often tens or hundreds of miles away. 17
18 Source: EIA, National Energy Education Development Project 18
19 Electric System Fundamentals Transmission & Distribution (T&D) electric grid systems: Impose T&D costs ($20-$30/MWH) Impact reliability (i.e., imposes storm and other risks, requires maintenance, etc.) Require additional generation due to line losses averaging at least 6.5% 19
20 Average Line Loss Components 20
21 Electric System Fundamentals (4) Electricity s Holy Grail: Reliability Analogous to attainment of NAAQS for air regulators Reliability means: 1. Adequate generation capacity to meet peak load plus a margin of safety; and 2. Reliable means to deliver it (T&D) 21
22 NERC: - Develops & enforces reliability standards; - Monitors the bulk power system; - Assesses adequacy via forecasts; - Audits owners, operators, and users for preparedness; - Trains industry personnel; - Helps ensure open access. Planning Standard: <1 day in 10 years 22
23 23
24 501 MW 24
25 Economic Dispatch Problems Generators bid prices don t include all costs, particularly environmental costs Emissions are considered externalities and not valued Newer (often cleaner) plants bear greater depreciation costs, so dispatched less Special exceptions exist, e.g., Reliability Must Run (RMR) 25
26 Economic Dispatch Opportunities Some states adopting preferential loading order requirements e.g., efficiency 1 st, renewables 2 nd, etc. China exploring Efficiency Power Plants in electricity modeling/planning Environmental dispatch In RAP terms, Clean First 26
27 Market Clearing Prices The bid price of the marginal unit necessary to satisfy the last bit of load is paid to all generators Avoids turmoil due to bid gaming, but Small load changes at the margin, especially near peak loads, yield very large cost differences, and Profits low-cost laggards most 27
28 Electricity Rates (Prices) vs. Bills Public/political attention had been trained to focus on electric rates or electricity prices, but Customers pay bills, not rates! 28
29 100% 90% Electricity Prices Generally Lower in Coal Country In general, lower electricity prices % of Coal in Electric Mix 80% 70% 60% 50% In general, higher electricity prices 40% 30% 20% 10% 0% 29

32 Revenue Decoupling Traditionally utilities have throughput incentive A rate mechanism that separates (decouples) a utility s fixed cost recovery from the amount of electricity it sells. Under decoupling, utilities collect revenues Utilities are protected from sales declines due to efficiency, so are more likely to invest it (or less likely to resist) 32
33 How Changes in Sales Affect Earnings % Change in Sales 5.00% 4.00% 3.00% 2.00% 1.00% 0.00% -1.00% -2.00% -3.00% -4.00% -5.00% Revenue Change Pre-tax After-tax $9,047,538 $5,880,900 $7,238,031 $4,704,720 $5,428,523 $3,528,540 $3,619,015 $2,352,360 $1,809,508 $1,176,180 $0 $0 -$1,809,508 -$1,176,180 -$3,619,015 -$2,352,360 -$5,428,523 -$3,528,540 -$7,238,031 -$4,704,720 -$9,047,538 -$5,880,900 Impact on Earnings Net Earnings % Change Actual ROE $15,780, % 17.53% $14,604, % 16.23% $13,428, % 14.92% $12,252, % 13.61% $11,076, % 12.31% $9,900, % 11.00% $8,723, % 9.69% $7,547, % 8.39% $6,371, % 7.08% $5,195, % 5.77% $4,019, % 4.47% 33
34
35 Utility Restructuring or Deregulation THEN: Central generating stations and T&D systems (poles & wires) were natural monopolies, thus regulated NOW: New options for electric generation (financial, technological, operational) enable merchant generation generation no longer a natural monopoly and should be competitive markets T&D still is, so wire companies remain regulated Distributed generation and nimble power may lead to more changes 35
36 States with Restructured Retail Electric Markets WA States that suspended restructuring and still have some residual customer choice and competitive retail supply. CA AK OR NV ID AZ UT MT WY CO NM ND SD NE KS OK TX MN IA MO AR LA WI NY MI PA OH IL IN WV VA KY NC TN SC MS AL GA FL VT NH DE MD ME MA CT RI NJ States that restructured their electric industry HI Source: EIA, as of September Restructured states as share of U.S.: = 34% of residential MWh sales = 38% of commercial sales 36
37 Some Impacts of Deregulation Utility Integrated Resource Planning (IRP) often abolished or weakened System benefits charge (SBC) for EE, lowincome aid, etc. weakened or restructured No automatic recovery of pollution control costs New approaches required to ensure resource adequacy or capacity 37
38 Future of Deregulation? Progress came to a halt with California s experience Poor policy design, plus Enron market manipulation Technological, financial pressure building for further progress 38
39 Federal & State Roles Electricity is a political issue the world over, but especially so in. The debate over reform pits the central government against regional governors. Although controls wholesale electricity tariffs, the governors control retail prices. They are adamant about keeping this power so they can protect industries to which they have ties. Moreover, they are determined to maintain low electricity prices for households, which pay about $2 a month to keep their lights on, roughly the price of a cheap bottle of vodka. Source: RFF, Brennan, April 2003, citing The Economist, Aug. 31,
40 Federal & State Roles Federal Energy Regulatory Commission Wholesale electricity markets, i.e., interstate transmission, market design, pricing, etc. Some authority (as yet unexercised) re transmission siting Groundbreakers: 1996 Order 888 (open access) 1999 Order 2000 (RTOs) 2011 Order 1000 (include policy considerations in planning) 40
41 Federal & State Roles States (via Legislatures and Public Service Commissions): Retail rates Whether, when, and how choice of energy provider is offered 41
42 Federal & State Roles Note key differences in fed vs. state; energy vs. environment Environment (AQ) Strong federal oversight Federal (EPA) delegation; within federal law & regs; subject to review & approval (SIPs) Energy Complete freedom at retail History of state initiative/leadership EE, RE (RPS), siting, etc. 42
43 Agency Roles & Operation PSCs: Formal, quasi-judicial docket processes DEPs: Delegated authority (primarily) Notice-and-comment rulemaking SEOs: Typically non-regulatory; everything else Key implementing arms (e.g., ARRA); lead-byexample; research, review, and report issues & opportunities; assist economic development 43
44 What s the Take Home Message for AQ? ~1.4 EGUs => 4.2 (3x) emissions due to conversion losses Plus, all hands on deck means higheremitting EGUs run 44
45 +7.5% MW = +53% NOx 45
46 Is there any question why it s important for EPA and the states to encourage EE/RE/DR in environmental & energy regulation? (and we haven t even touched on savings, jobs, competitiveness or security benefits yet ) 46
