GETTING BACK TO NORMAL IS NOT GOOD ENOUGH Joe Marone Occidental Chemical Corporation Rebuilding Utility Infrastructure: Challenges & Opportunities February 21, 2006

OCCIDENTAL CHEMICAL  3 CHLOR-ALKALI FACILITIES IN LOUISIANA  920 DIRECT AND CONTRACT EMPLOYEES  ONE OF LARGEST ELECTRIC CONSUMERS IN LOUISIANA 580 MW OF LOAD 320 MW PURCHASES 260 MW SELF SUPPLY

HURRICANES’ DIRECT IMPACT ON OCCIDENTAL OPERATIONS  NO SIGNIFICANT STORM DAMAGE TO OCCIDENTAL FACILITIES  NORMAL SHUT-DOWNS ASSOCIATED WITH STORM PREPARATION  LIMITED DELAYS IN START-UP ASSOCIATED WITH FEEDSTOCK SUPPLIERS AND CUSTOMERS REGAINING POWER  GAS DELIVERED DESPITE SOME UNCERTAINTIES IN SUPPLY

HURRICANES INDIRECT IMPACT ON OCCIDENTAL OPERATIONS  INCREASED NATURAL GAS COSTS BECAUSE OF LOSS OF PRODUCTION CURTAILMENT OF PROCESSING POWER FAILURE/TRANSMISSION OUTAGES  INCREASED ELECTRICITY COSTS DUE TO INCREASED NATURAL GAS COSTS

POST-STORM HIGH PRICES DUE IN PART TO LACK OF POWER SUPPLY  “HONESTLY, THE FIX FOR THIS IS A MORE ROBUST GRID. ENTERGY HAS NOT INVESTED IN TRANSMISSION AS I THINK IT SHOULD. IT’S A STANDING ISSUE I HAD AS A REGULATOR AND STILL HAVE WITH THE COMPANY.”  PAT WOOD III FORMER FERC CHAIRMAN HOUSTON CHRONICLE (10/9/05)  “IT IS COUNTER INTUITIVE TO SUGGEST THAT PUTTING ADDITIONAL TRANSMISSION FACILITIES IN THE HURRICANE’’S PATH WOULD HAVE SOMEHOW IMPROVED THE SITUATION. IT WOULD HAVE JUST RESULTED IN MORE LINES ON THE GROUND AND THE NEED FOR AN EVEN MORE EXTENSIVE RESTORATION EFFORT”  JOHN ZEMANEK VICE PRES. OF TRANSMISSION ENTERGY CORPORATION HOUSTON CHRONICLE (10/9/05)  ENTERGY’S ONLY CONNECTION BETWEEN THE COMPANY’S EASTERN AND WESTERN POWER GENERATION IS A 500 kV LOOP WHICH WAS SEVERELY DAMAGED BY HURRICANE RITA. EIGHTEEN STRUCTURES ALONG THE LINE WERE DAMAGED.  MEGAWATT DAILY SEPTEMBER 29, 2005

OPPORTUNITIES FOR IMPROVEMENT  “IF YOU ARE GOING TO REBUILD THAT TRANSMISSION SYSTEM, IS IT POSSIBLE FOR YOU TO RECONFIGURE THAT SO AS TO USE THE MOST EFFICIENT POWER GENERATION ASSETS AVAILABLE IN YOUR REGIONS, EVEN IF THOSE DON’T BELONG TO ENTERGY?  U.S. SENATOR JEFF BINGAMEN PLAAT’S INSIDE FERC, 10/10/05  “ENTERGY’S TRANSMISSION SYSTEM WAS DESIGNED TO SERVE ITS NATIVE LOAD. IT’S DOING EXACTLY THAT. IT IS PERFORMING EFFICIENTLY AND ADMIRABLY”  JOHN ZEMANEK VICE PRES. OF TRANSMISSION ENTERGY CORPORATION MEGAWATT DAILY (10/26/05)

ENTERGY PRE AND POST STORM ELECTRICITY PRICES ARE UNCOMPETITIVE  OXY PURCHASED POWER PRICES IN LOUISIANA ARE 12-40% HIGHER IN LOUSIANA THAN IN NEIGHBORING STATES WITH OXY FACILITES  ENTERGY RATES FOR RESIDENTIAL, COMMERCIAL AND INDUSTRIAL CUSTOMERS RANK IN THE TOP 6 HIGHEST RATES ON A SOUTHEAST REGIONAL BASIS

ENTERGY USE OF INEFFICIENT GAS GENERATION EXACERBATES HIGH GAS COSTS  ELL AND EGSI RELY ON ENTERGY INEFFICIENT OIL/GAS GENERATION FOR 20% OF RESOURCE SUPPLY, ON AVERAGE  ENTERGY ADMITS SAVINGS OF $30 MILLION FOR EVERY PERCENTAGE POINT DECREASE  ENTERGY HAS NOT REDUCED LEVEL OF 20% RELIANCE SINCE 2003  THIS, DESPITE FACT THAT THERE ARE 14,000 MW OF EFFICIENT GAS GENERATION LOCATED IN ENTERGY FOOTPRINT

“WE CONTINUE TO RUN THE OLD GAS FIRED PLANTS BECAUSE NO OFFERS HAVE BEEN MADE AT THE MARKET THAT ARE MORE ECONOMICAL. IT’S NOT HOW EFFICIENT YOU ARE BUT WHAT YOU OFFER IT FOR AT THE MARKET. IF THE POWER MARKET GETS PRICY THEN WE CAN FALL BACK ON OUR OLD UNITS. KEEPING THE OLD PLANTS AS A CEILING PROTECTS CONSUMERS IN LOUISIANA FROM THE PRICE SPIKES CAUSED BY SHORTAGES.” JOHN ZEMANEK VICE PRES. OF TRANSMISSION ENTERGY CORPORATION MEGAWATT DAILY (10/26/05))

OPPORTUNITIES FOR POST STORM ECONOMIC RECOVERY  ISSUE RFP TO TEST MARKET FOR RETIREMENT OF INEFFICIENT GAS GENERATION AND SHUT OFF ASAP  IDENTIFY ECONOMIC TRANSMISSION UPGRADES TO SHUT DOWN “MUST RUN” GAS GENERATION  PURCHASE AGC AND RAMPING CAPABILITIES

 “The arch enemy of utilities is always the industrial customer. The industrial customer generally finds it offensive that the utility doesn’t have to be efficient, they can pass on all their costs regardless of the bozo decisions that they make, etc. It just bothers them. Of course, the utility is offended at the industrial customer because they are so demanding and ruthless in terms of their demands of performance, and they believe they oversimplify the manufacturing of electricity. ” C. John Wilder CEO of TXU Corp. Former Entergy CFO Quoted in Public Utilities Fortnightly, June, 2005.
