  1. Economic Portfolio Update – CAWG Meeting – AEP Offices, Dallas August 27, 2008

  2. Portfolios - Review • Portfolio 3 is associated with wind levels beyond the 2,600 MW in 2008 • Previous Analysis • (April, 2008) show strong benefits for generic wind growth modeled at 7 GW in the SPP footprint. • (July, 2008) without wind above current levels, Portfolio 3 is not cost-beneficial • Modifications to Portfolio 3 are required for: • Specific, not generic wind locations • Sizing and location of wind collector systems matched with assumptions on levels of wind generation. • Portfolio 3-A is associated to current wind levels • Previous Analysis (Sep, 2008) demonstrates benefits exceeding costs under current wind levels in SPP • Portfolio 3-A is used to separate out the impact of carbon policy from wind development by keeping wind at current levels.

  3. Portfolio 3 (with S-K-A*) • Substation Upgrades: • Anadarko Transformer • Chesapeake Transformer • Swissvale-Stilwell Tap (at West Gardner) • El Dorado-Longwood Series Compensation • Lines: • Spearville-Knoll-Axtell* • Spearville-Comanche Co-Woodward-Tuco • Tolk-Potter • Sooner-Cleveland • Iatan-Nashua • Pittsburg-Fort Smith

  5. * 765 kV Construction and Additional Wind • Quanta EHV Study identifies 4,600 MW as the point 765 kV is required • SPP higher wind (7,000 MW) analysis presented at April, 2008 CAWG identified large benefits for higher wind injection at generic wind locations • Higher wind levels identify greater benefit for P3 • April 2008 analysis used generic wind locations • P3 at 345 kV probably will not support 7GW of wind • Numbers shown are indicative, refined high wind analysis currently being conducted and will consider specific more wind locations * Note: Incremental 765 kV benefits not considered. Benefits show are for 345 kV construction

  6. Figure 1 - Spearville Finney Loop 1 Comanche Co. Hitchland` Woodward Wind Injection Locations • Adjustments for wind location have a large impact on design • For example, only 240 MW modeled on Finney – Potter 345 kV line (e.g. Hitchland) despite the fact that queue has large development in that area • Generation Interconnect queue has 8,000+ MW on this transmission line • Higher levels of wind injection will likely need 765 kV support similar to Figure 1

  7. Portfolio 3-A: For Analysis for Current Wind Levels of 2,600 MW • Substation Upgrades: • Potter Transformer • Lines: • Spearville-Comanche Co-Woodward-Tuco • Pittsburg-Fort Smith • Seminole-Muskogee • Wichita-Reno Co-Summit • = removed

  9. Carbon Tax ($/ton) Sensitivity • SPP Staff has conducted a sensitivity to Carbon Tax on the Balanced Portfolio • $15/ton and $40/ton simulated • No additional changes (e.g. extra wind, etc.) • Carbon analysis performed on Portfolio 3-A to tie impact to current levels of wind (i.e. 2,600 MW)

  10. Carbon Impact on Portfolio 3-A 2012

  11. Generation Displacement for P3-A

  12. Carbon Impact on SPP System Prices

  13. Carbon Tax & High Wind • Carbon Tax lowers the margins between coal and gas, thus decreasing potential benefit available • Wind analysis needs to be combined to determine impact of Carbon Tax and Wind • Wind will offset higher carbon based production costs

  14. Going Forward • SPP is currently in the analysis stage for the high wind and future analysis • model building, updating generator database, mapping, etc. • Next Steps - • Future (2017, 2023) analysis • High Wind analysis (stand alone and combined with carbon sensitivity) • 765 kV construction/operation • Impact on reliability plan (negative and positive) • Determine balance adjustments • Leading portfolio moved to approval
