California Energy Commission Today’s Topics Statutory Background Recent Efforts Transmission Corridors Right-sizing Next Steps 2

California Energy Commission Statutory Background Garamendi Principles - Senate Bill 2431 (Garamendi, Chapter 1457, Statutes of 1988) Strategic Transmission Investment Plan [STIP] - Senate Bill 1565 (Bowen, Chapter 692, Statutes of 2004) Transmission Corridor Designation [Corridors] Process – Senate Bill 1059 (Escutia and Morrow, Chapter 638, Statutes of 2006) Relationship between STIP and Corridors 2015 IEPR Scoping Order 3

California Energy Commission Recent Efforts May 11, IEPR workshop on Renewable Progress, Challenges, and Opportunities June 10, Kick-off at Governor’s Office for Solar and the San Joaquin Valley Identification of Least-conflict Lands July 9, Governor’s Office symposium focused on Governor Brown’s greenhouse gas reduction goals –Importance of regional coordination –Full participation in the California ISO 4

California Energy Commission Transmission Corridors Geographic locations for corridors identified in STIP chapter of 2013 IEPR –Desert Renewable Energy Conservation Plan –San Joaquin Valley –San Onofre back-up transmission alternatives Question for feedback –For the 2015 IEPR, what are the appropriate corridors opportunities that should be identified? 5

California Energy Commission Right-Sizing Definition Example: SCE Tehachapi Renewable Transmission Project 2011 IEPR 2014 IEPR Update 6

California Energy Commission Workshop Questions on Right-Sizing – For Written Comments Is right-sizing transmission a qualitative (policy) issue or a quantitative (metric-based) issue? What criteria should be used to assess right-sizing opportunities? Is right-sizing only appropriate for areas that have been studied in depth for maximum possible renewable build-out, such as DRECP? Given that new policy targets are considered for long-term renewable generation and GHG emission reduction targets, how should right- sizing transmission proposals be evaluated in long-term planning? –Should a specific time frame be applied to the evaluation (10, 15, 20 years)? What is the appropriate way to analyze the costs vs. benefits of a potential right-sizing project? –What is the cost of building a right-sizing opportunity into a future project (for example, build a 230 kV transmission line to 500 kV specifications or a single-circuit line with double-circuit towers)? –How do we evaluate if the increase in cost is worth the risk? 7

California Energy Commission Next Steps Written comments due August 17, 2015 –Corridors identified to date and any others –Right-sizing –Other STIP-related comments The STIP will be incorporated into the Draft 2015 IEPR scheduled for release in October
