  1. Out of Region Market Assumptions Resource Adequacy Technical Committee April 2010

  2. California Import Capability • Focus analysis on California Imports • Currently, the assumption in Genesys for the adequacy assessment is 3,000 MW of hourly import capability from October through May and 0 MW from June to September • Note that this is not the dispatch in Genesys – just the capability • Examine this assumption by looking at: • Power plant development in California between 2000 and 2010 (total in state regardless of owner) • CPUC Resource Adequacy Assessment (March 2009) (owned or under contract by IOUs or community aggregators) • Intertie Loadings between 2004 and 2009

  3. Power Plant Development in California • During the past 11 years there as been substantial resource development within the state of California – most of it gas-fired • Chart (page 4) include all resources built in state regardless of owner • Since not all developers are load serving entities or all generation is dedicated to load – no load/resource assessment can be made • Chart (page 5) “net addition” include the impact of plant retirements in the state (but also including Mohave)

  6. CPUC RA Assessment • The CAL-ISO has not published a winter assessment since October 2003 • The March 2009 CPUC study does not include municipal utilities and irrigation districts – so study does not represent the entire state of California • Analysis includes all IOUs and Community Choice Aggregators • Tables include monthly results • First table includes the results including the demand response programs • Second table removes demand response programs – assume that California would cut exports (short term sales) before calling on demand response programs • Results include unit-contingent and non-unit contingent import contracts, DWR contracts, physical resources, and RMR capacity • Only net qualifying capacity is considered based on historical performance and other factors – designed to get the expected value of capacity • Results – excluding demand response programs – California has winter surplus capability, tight margins in the summer, and modest surpluses in the shoulder months (page 7 Column G)

  9. The Interties • The average physical transfer capability* on the A.C. line S. to N. is 3,100 MW [Genesys 4880] • The average physical transfer capability* on the D.C. line S. to N. is 1,700 MW [Genesys 2850] • Flows on the A.C. line were S. to N. 3.8% of the time with an average flow of 346 MW and a maximum of 1,513 MW • Flows on the D.C. line were S. to N. 18.9% of the time with an average flow of 472 MW and a maximum of 2,045 MW • The maximum coincidental import on both lines was 2,810 MW *A.C. rated at 4,800 MW; average includes line de-rates (Dec 2004 to Dec 2009)

  10. Limiting Factors • Interties provide enough physical import capability ~ 4,800 MW – up to 2,810 MW have been imported coincidentally over both lines • Over 17,000 MW of net generation has been built within the state over the past 11 years, but not necessarily under contract with load serving entities • California IOU/community aggregators are the limiting factor – no meaningful surplus capacity during July to October (pg 8 – column G) and less than 3,000 MW during shoulder months

  11. Recommendation • Assuming that California would cut exports before initiating demand response programs: • Genesys assumption of 0 import capability during July to August is justified as well has 3,000 MW during December to February • However, shoulder months should be revised to reflect 0 import capability in October, and amounts of less than 3,000 MW in March to June and November
