3. 2 City requests LADWP 20% by 2017 State Goal 20% by 2017 2006 2004 2005 2007 2008 2003 2009 2002 2010 LADWP Policy: 13% by 2010 20% by 2017 SB2 (1X) legislatively enacts 33% RPS target 2011 LADWP accelerates RPS goal to 20% by 2010 State Exec Order: RPS 33% by 2020 LADWP IRP RPS Goal of 33% by 2020 LADWP RPS policy changed to 35% by 2020 SB106 accelerates state goal to 20% by 2010 RPS Policy Amendment and Enforcement Program Adopted RPS Policy History In 2002, the California Legislature passed Senate Bill 1078 that established the California Renewables Portfolio Standard, Progressively, the RPS goals have increased: Timeline 2

4. SB2 (1X) RPS Compliance Targets 2011 – 2013 (on avg.) December 31 2016 December 31 2020 20% 25% 33% YEAR RETAIL SALES On Dec. 9, 2011, the California Renewable Energy Resources Act, SB 2 (1X) became effective 3

5. 4 RPS Principles Geographic & resource diversity of projects is important Maximize use of existing LADWP transmission & land Maintain options/flexibility Regionally “cluster” renewable projects to achieve operational efficiency Ownership of projects using proven technology is part of the current RPS Policy

6. 5 Renewable Projects Regional Map Columbia River Corridor: PowerEx Small Hydro Pebble Springs Wind Willow Creek Wind Linden Wind Farm Windy Point Wind Columbia River Corridor: PowerEx Small Hydro Pebble Springs Wind Willow Creek Wind Linden Wind Farm Windy Point Wind Milford Wind I / II Pleasant Valley SW Wy Wind STS Transmission Gas Pipeline – Landfill / Biogas Small Hydro – Aqueduct Pine Tree Wind, Solar (future), Geothermal (Future) Barren Ridge-Inyo Transmission (Future) Pacific DC Transmission Local In-Basin Solar Mead Transmission Solar (Future) Mead Transmission Solar (Future) Imperial Valley Geothermal (Future), Solar (Future)

12. PROJECTS IN SERVICE PROJECTS UNDER CONSTRUCTION PROJECTS PLANNED DEFICIT GOAL 33% RPS Deficit 11

13. 12 Lessons Learned System Integration for renewables is an important consideration. BPA in the Northwest, LADWP system in CA and UT Transmission / Energy Delivery is a challenge. Firming/Shaping products are useful to maximize transmission usage Weather forecasting is crucial Benchmarking project performance and O&M costs Renewable technology types have different value considerations PPA contract negotiations are difficult and time-consuming RPS must be an integral part of the IRP process

14. RPS by technology LADWP Energy Mix Note that Coal is being reduced from 39% to 27% as shown Projected 2020 Resource Mix 13

15. Future LADWP Energy Projects Solar: In-Basin Solar Pine Tree Solar Adelanto Solar Owens Valley Wind: Pine Canyon Geothermal: Imperial County (Phase I) Owens Valley Power Purchase Agreements: Over 200 responses to Jan 2011 RFP Solar, Geothermal, Wind, and Biogas Transmission Upgrades: Barren Ridge Renewable Energy Project 14

17. Balancing RPS goals with system resource needs Once through Cooling – OTC (316b) Aging Distribution System Infrastructure Coal Transition (SB1368 Compliance) Continued economic downturn with little load growth Energy Efficiency investments Maintain grid reliability with intermittent energy Transmission Investments Meeting SB2 (1X) provisions: buckets Local Distributed Energy Need to balance multiple regulatory compliance mandates within reliability and resource constraints Getting to 33% Renewable Energy Levels 16

18. 17 LADWP – An Early Leader in Local Solar Generation Started net-meter incentive program in 1999 (one of first programs in the state) $150 Million Commitment $55 Million Spent (10 MW) Prior to SB1 Initiative (Oct 2007)

19. 18 LADWP’s SB1 Program: Higher rebates than required by State In 2011, LADWP doubled annual investment $313 million capped program through 2016 (SB1 compliant) Pays customers $288 million for incentives Average budget - $30 million in solar rebates annually through 2016 Seeks to achieve as many MWs as possible Uses 10-step declining scale based on performance of solar installation LADWP set incentives $0.70 to $1.70 per watt higher than State minimum to attract customers because of our lower rates Local Solar Programs SB 1 Implementation

20. 19 Local Solar Programs Cumulative Budget and Requested Dollars

21. 20 *Estimated Incentive FundsMegaWatts Installed Through Dec. 1, 2011 $110 million SB1*, $165 million total 42 Requested and in Process$91 million*40 Remaining Unrequested SB1$87 million48 Total$288 million130 4,520 Operating Solar Systems, with approx. 1,550 in process Solar Incentive Program Status as of Dec. 1, 2011

22. 21 Comply with state mandate – Senate Bill 32 Create an additional solar power funding mechanism to augment the Solar Incentive Program Provide a reliable, cost effective, dependable, sustainable, and streamlined program Price Discovery Encourage electrical generation from renewable resources close to load centers Balance renewable portfolio for reliability via geographic and technology diversity Provide local economic development Local Solar Programs FiT Program Objectives

23. 22 Over 1 MW AC currently installed on City Roofs 2 MW more will be constructed in 2012 10 MW AC Adelanto Solar Project is in Construction – Completion due in June 2012 8.5 MW AC Pine Tree Solar Project scheduled for construction from March to Sept. 2012 Both Adelanto and Pine Tree Solar Projects used ARRA subsidized financing Local Solar Programs Utility Built Solar
