2 Total generation: 4,120 billion (kWh) 3,950 billion (kWh) in 2009 Source: http://www.eia.doe.gov WHY? Energy –Emissions

3 Polluting Emissions from Electricity Generation http://www.gpo.gov/fdsys/pkg/FR-2012-02-16/pdf/2012-806.pdf http://www.epa.gov/mats/actions.html

4  Air Quality  Visual  Health (asthma)  GHG………Climate (?)  Contaminant Deposition  Surface Water  Soils  Vegetation  Food Chain  Fish Consumption  And,…. Even for the “non-environmentalist”………  Policy: Government Specified Caps Emissions Effects

5 Problem: How to identify emission potential? Locational Marginal Price as Proxy for Generator Type LMP at time t i Hydro & Nuclear Coal Natural Gas Oil Price ($/MWh)

6  LMPs based on marginal cost of supplying the next increment of electric demand at a specific location  LMP Accounts for:  generation marginal cost (fuel cost)  physical aspects of transmission system (constraint in transmission lines)  Cost of marginal power losses Locational Marginal Prices (LMP)

7 Methodology  Use LMP to point to the marginal fuel type  Calculate emissions associated with that fuel type for a specific area (or specific generator)

8 Environmental Optimization Linking Consumption to Emissions 1. Source Identification Dispatch adjusted every 5 minutes within MISO 2. Emission Quantification Function of generator type

9 Locational Marginal Prices  LMPs available from MISO  (Midwest Independent System Operator)  LMPs for select Commercial Pricing Nodes (CPNs) available every 5 minutes

10 Locational Marginal Prices…spatial variation LMP = f (space,time)

11 Locational Marginal Prices….temporal variation

12 Emission Rates  LMP  Marginal Generator Type  Air Emissions  Measured Air Emissions Data from EPA’s eGRID  (Emissions & Generation Resource Integrated Database)  Data on thousands of power plants in the US  Sort by EGCL code (Electric Generating Company, Location-Based)  i.e., all of DTE-operated plants in SE Michigan WE WANT THIS TO BE DEFINED ON THE FINEST GRID POSSIBLE….compare to an approach based on national averages of emissions/KWh

13 Emission Rates  Calculate average emission rate for entire area for each fuel type  Example, Detroit Edison: (2008 data)  LMP  Marginal Generator Type  Air Emissions Air Emissions in pounds pollutant per MWhr generated (lb/MWh) PollutantNuclearCoalNatural GasDistilled Fuel Oil SO2010.541.652.3445 NOX03.051.5721.73 CO2 equiv0207122921862 Hg05.26E-053.62E-065.81E-06 Pb1.09E-073.10E-051.66E-063.65E-05

14 Putting it Together: the HERO app  HERO = Home Emissions Read-Out  (LMP  Marginal Generator Type  Air Emissions)  Applying this concept to household energy use  Android App for smart phones

15 14 HERO: Home Emissions Read-Out HERO ARCHITECTURE

16 HERO Input  HERO can automatically find nearest CPN based on phone’s GPS  User also has choice to pick location from map

17 HERO Output  Current, Past, and Projected Future emissions  CO 2, NO X, SO X, Mercury, Lead

18 17 HERO Screen Shots
