Maryland RESILIENCY THROUGH MICROGRIDS Abigail Ross Hopper, Esq. Energy Advisor, Governor Martin O’Malley Director, Maryland Energy Administration October 20,2014

Social Expectations 2  Marylanders expect reliable electric service, during both blue sky days and major storms, at a low cost.  However, a significant disconnect exists between the public’s expectation of reliability and the ability of the present-day electric distribution system and utility business model to meet those expectations.

Frequency of Outages 3

Cost of Outages: Maryland 4  “Snowmageddon” (2010) Interruptions: BGE: 142,228; Pepco: 251,769; PE: 12,478  Hurricane Irene (2011) Interruptions: BGE: 756,395; Pepco: 410,313; PE: 19,702  Derecho (2012) Interruptions: BGE: 762,781; Pepco: 958,563; PE: 90,467 Estimated cost of three storms to customers: $1.1 billion

A New Paradigm: Microgrids 5  Tree limbs falling on power lines cause the majority outages during severe weather events.  But what if we can generate electricity closer to where it is consumed?  With technological innovation, it is becoming increasingly viable to do this economically.

Public Purpose Microgrids  Serve critical community assets across multiple properties  Critical community assets are community centers, commercial hubs, and emergency services Grocery store Government building Hardware store Restaurants Movie theater Metrorail Bus station NOAA 6

The Next Step: Multiple Customers and Properties 7  From a technical and regulatory standpoint, microgrids servicing single customers on single properties are feasible – and exist – in Maryland today.  Now we’re looking at the next step in deployment: systems that cross public rights of way to serve multiple customers.

Short Term: Utility-Owned Public Purpose Microgrids  Current Maryland law provides a framework for the deployment of utility-owned and/or operated public purpose microgrids.  The Task Force assembles the pieces of the puzzle necessary for the deployment of these systems in Maryland, but PSC approval is necessary. 8
