3 33 FERC Notice of Proposed Rulemaking on Transmission Planning and Cost Allocation Dani Bennett Progress Energy

4 Purpose of the NOPR  FERC proposes to require the regions to develop transmission plans and cost allocation methods that consider the benefits of new transmission facilities, including reliability, economics, and complying with state or federal laws or regulations (e.g. public policy).  FERC also proposes to require each pair of neighboring regions to coordinate transmission planning and cost allocation. 4

5 Cost Allocation  Each region to propose its own cost allocation method  FERC would not require a one size fits all method for allocating costs of transmission facilities  Development of cost allocation proposals must start at the regional level  If region can’t decide on a cost allocation method, then FERC would decide based on the record 5

6 Cost Allocation Principles  Regions would develop cost allocation methods based on the following principles: –Costs allocated “roughly commensurate” with estimated benefits –No involuntary allocation of costs to those receiving no benefit –Benefit-to-cost thresholds must not be excessive –No allocation of costs to other regions except pursuant to agreements –Cost allocation methods and identification of beneficiaries must be transparent –Different allocation methods could apply to different types of transmission facilities 6

7 Benefits 7 Regions would be required to consider benefits including reliability, economics, and enabling compliance with existing laws or regulations that may drive transmission needs. The proposal would not prevent regions from considering other public policy objectives. If a state has a law establishing a renewable electricity standard, then a region must consider transmission needs driven by that law.

8 Who Gets to Build  Removal of federal rights of first refusal from FERC jurisdictional tariffs and agreements; but no preemption of states  Encourage competition and new entrants 8

9 Merchants  Merchant transmission developers may continue to negotiate cost recovery from specific customers  Must comply with all relevant reliability requirements 9

10 Coordination Between Regions  Evaluate benefits of transmission lines that begin in one region and end in a second region.  Identify method(s) for allocating the cost of lines that the regions decide are mutually beneficial. 10

11 Timeline  Comments are due on September 29, 2010  Regional compliance filings are due 6 months after final rule promulgated  Interregional transmission planning agreements and interregional cost allocation compliance filings are due 12 months after final rule promulgated 11

73 73 SERC Long-term Study Group (LTSG)

74 74  Completed 2010 Series LTSG models  Building 2010 Series ERAG MMWG models SERC LTSG

75 75 2010 LTSG Study  Evaluate inter-regional and inter-BA transfer capability and base case reliability N-1 reliability in 2016S  Linears transfers run and evaluated  Report being drafted SERC LTSG

76 76 VACAR 2015S Study

77 77 VACAR 2015S Study SCOPE  Evaluation of N-1 contingencies for 500 kV, 230 kV, tie lines and any other lines with a significant impact.  Evaluation of N-2 contingencies based combinations of all N-1 contingencies  Evaluation of N-2 failed contingency solutions (solution failed to converge or reached iteration limit)

78 78 VACAR 2015S Study SIGNIFICANT FACILITY RESULTS  The facility is loading greater than or equal to 100% of its contingency specific rating  The response of the facility to a contingency and/or a VACAR Reserve Sharing scenario  The number of different companies impacted  If the facility requires the use of an operating guide  If the outage of the facility results in the overload of numerous major transmission elements

79 79 VACAR 2015S Study DEC & PEC N-2 SIGNIFICANT FACILITY RESULTS  Mills River-Asheville 115 kV Tie Line (Duke/CPLW)  Jocassee 500/230 kV Transformer (Duke)  Parkwood 500/230 kV Transformers (Duke)  Allen-Woodlawn 230 kV Line (Duke)  Anderson-Hartwell 230 kV Tie Line (Duke/SEPA)  Pisgah 230/100/44 kV Transformers (Duke)  Horseshoe 115/100 kV Transformers (Duke)  Horseshoe-Pisgah 100 kV Lines (Duke)  Great Falls-Wateree 100 kV Lines (Duke)  Wateree 115/100 kV Transformer (CPLE/Duke)  Havelock 230/115 kV transformers #1/2 (CPLE)  Asheboro East-Biscoe 115 kV Line (CPLE)  Richmond-Rockingham 230 kV East Line (CPLE)

80 80 VACAR 2015S Study  The assessment of failed contingency solutions found that the majority of the 84 failed solutions involved toggling capacitors or the loss of significant generation due to the tested contingency.  Failed solutions were found to solve when they were rerun with the toggling capacitor fixed (removed from voltage control) or the lost generation moved to a remote bus as part of the contingency description.  The toggling capacitors were fixed at their max MVAR output and the lost generation was moved to a bus remote from the location where the contingency was being evaluated to avoid impacting the local impacts of the contingency.

81 81 Carolinas Transmission Planning Coordination Arrangement

82 82  Establish a forum for coordinating certain planning activities among the specific parties  DEC, PEC, SCE&G and SCPSA  Studying 2014 and 2021 summer conditions  Expect report in early October Carolinas Transmission Planning Coordination Arrangement

83 NERC TPL-001-2 Standard Update 83

84 NERC TPL-001-2 Standard Update  Response to ballot and comments on the proposed footnote ‘b’ were posted  NERC held a technical conference 8/10/10 to discuss footnote “b” issue 84

85 NERC TPL-001-2 Standard Update  Response to informal comments on the latest draft have been prepared.  Footnote ‘b’ related to TPL-001-1 loss of non-consequential load is open for informal comment through October 8 th.  Standard is expected to be ready for re- ballot in February timeframe with new footnote ‘b’ merged in. 85

86 NERC TPL-001-2 Standard Update b) An objective of the planning process is to avoid interruption of Demand. Interruption of Demand is discouraged and measures to mitigate such interruption should be pursued within the planning process. However, Demand may need to be interrupted in limited circumstances to address BES performance requirements. When interruption of Demand is utilized within the planning process, such interruption is limited to:  Demand that is directly served by the elements that are removed from service as a result of the Contingency  Interruptible Demand or Demand-Side Management 86

87 NERC TPL-001-2 Standard Update  Demand that does not adversely impact overall BES reliability where the circumstances describing the use of such Demand interruption are documented, including alternatives evaluated; and where the application is subject to review and acceptance in an open and transparent stakeholder process. 87
