Overview of Distributed Generation Applications June 16, 2003 Harrisburg, PA Joel Bluestein Energy and Environmental Analysis, Inc.

Energy and Environmental Analysis, Inc. 2 Overview Why DG? What are the applications?

Energy and Environmental Analysis, Inc. 3 Distributed Generation Strategic use of small (<25 MW) generation units Energy generated at or near the point of use for: –Energy: provide kWh and Btu –Capacity: meet peak load requirements –Reliability: provide service with minimal interruptions –Backup/Standby: provide all or partial power needs when called in certain circumstances Now driven by new technology, restructuring, changing consumer needs.

Energy and Environmental Analysis, Inc. 4 DG Applications Emergency generation - historical application. Concern over changing profile. Combined Heat and Power - common practice by large industrials; large untapped potential in small industrial and commercial establishments Peaking - potential growth market for customer peak shaving (500 to 2000 hours/year) by light industrial and commercial Premium Power - emerging market to provide quality power to sensitive customers Niche Applications - providing power in remote or isolated applications, stranded gas wells, and landfill and municipal waste gas

Energy and Environmental Analysis, Inc. 5 Emergency Generation On-site power generation for periods when grid power is interrupted - 100s of hours. Critical loads have been served by back-up generators for many years. Reciprocating engine technology is the only quick-start option available. Low-cost diesels have been the technology of choice. Increased use for other uses is a major regulatory concern.

Energy and Environmental Analysis, Inc. 6 Peak/Load Shaving On-site generation during periods of high electric system demand to: –Reduce peak electricity costs –Avoid grid reliability/power quality problems –Generate electricity for sale to grid –Also includes utility use to address T&D constraints. Typically up to 1,000s of hours per year. Use of emergency diesels for peaking is a regulatory concern.

Energy and Environmental Analysis, Inc. 7 Peak/Load Shaving Turbines or reciprocating engines applicable. Efficiency not critical. Low capital cost and low fixed O&M costs are important. Availability/reliability are key

Energy and Environmental Analysis, Inc. 8 Premium Power High quality power for mission critical applications. Reliability, reliability, reliability. Tight specs on voltage and frequency. Cost and efficiency are secondary.

Energy and Environmental Analysis, Inc. 9 The Value of Reliability

Energy and Environmental Analysis, Inc. 10 Alternative Fuels Oil and gas wells, land fills. Efficiency not critical, fuel is “free”. Fuel flexibility is important. Availability / reliability are key. Unattended operation and predictable maintenance required.

Energy and Environmental Analysis, Inc. 11 Combined Heat and Power CHP systems sequentially produce electricity, thermal or mechanical energy. –Coincident electric and thermal loads –Moderate to high operating hours CHP boasts energy utilization efficiencies up to 80%. CHP is very attractive from an energy efficiency as well as economic perspective.

Energy and Environmental Analysis, Inc. 12 Providers of DG ESCO’s Utility Unregulated Affiliates Equipment Manufacturers and Licensed Distributors System Packagers New “Integrators” Utilities for T&D issues

Energy and Environmental Analysis, Inc. 13 DG Value Chain Customers –Reduced costs –Increased revenues –Price risk mitigation –Enhanced reliability –Productivity enhancements –Competitive advantage in core offerings Public Interests –Energy Efficiency –Supply –Environment –Customer Choice Providers –Energy sales –Equipment sales –Engineering and Installation –Financing –Maintenance services –Fuel commodity –Fuel transportation –Energy services

Energy and Environmental Analysis, Inc. 14 Commercial and Institutional Market Segments

Energy and Environmental Analysis, Inc. 15 DG Market Barriers Electric Utility Resistance and Rate issues –Standby rates, exit fees, deferral Rates Permitting and Siting Process –Multiple agency approvals may be needed –Lack of technology information and universally accepted standards Grid Interconnection Process Fuel Price Volatility Technology Costs & Performance Expectations of Emerging Technologies Customer Perceptions

Energy and Environmental Analysis, Inc. 16 Conclusions DG can meet a variety of real customer needs. The value must be significant to move the market past commercial and institutional barriers.
