Long Term Renewable Strategy

7. LADWP System Largest municipal utility in U.S.
465 sq. mile service territory: LA & Owens Valley.
3.9 million residents.
7400 MW maximum generation capacity: hydro, coal, natural gas, nuclear, and renewables.
System Peak of 6165 MW on July 24, 2006.
25,000 GWH annual production.
Extensive transmission & distribution assets.

8. Meeting LADWP’s Resource Requirements
To meet native load requirements, LADWP:
Uses LADWP-owned generation or long-term firm energy contracts;
Enters into short-term economy purchases/sales;
Owns or has contractual transmission rights to secure deliverability of energy;
Provides a conservative reserve margin beyond peak demand * ; and
Does not rely on capacity purchases or capacity contracts.
* reserve margin meets WECC requirements, and is expected to meet or exceed the CPUC resource adequacy requirements.

9. LADWP’s Long-Term Planning
LADWP plans to continue to meet load growth (and new resource requirements such as renewable power) in a self-sufficient manner by:
Demand-Side Management – Aggressive Energy Efficiency and Water Conservation Programs, Green Building Program
Achieving a 20% renewable portfolio standard by 2010 – Currently 8% of Power Content. Adopted a goal of 35% renewables by the implementation plan for this goal is in place.
LADWP compliance = electricity delivered versus CPUC compliance of contracts in place.
Building New Renewable Generation – Pine Tree Wind Farm (under construction), Imperial Geothermal (preliminary engineering/permitting), Local Small Renew LA Projects (RFP under evaluation with Bureau of Sanitation)
Repowering old generation units with newer, cleaner, and more efficient units. Repowering of Haynes Generating Station has been authorized by Board and is in preliminary engineering.
Building Transmission – Owens Valley Renewable Corridor Upgrade, Green Path North
Purchase Agreements for Renewable Power with ownership options – Several Recent Renewable RFP’s
Significantly expanding it’s customer driven solar program beyond the minimum requirements of SB 1.
As a result, the Department will meet the Kyoto Protocol targets ahead of the international schedule and will reduce its carbon emissions significantly below 1990 levels prior to AB target date.

10. Resource Acquisition Status for 2010
Existing RPS projects = 8% of sales (up from 3% in 2005)
Pine Tree Wind Project, Northwest Small Hydro, and solar rooftops
2004 LADWP RFP – potential acquisition of multiple projects
2005 SCPPA RFP – potential acquisition of multiple projects
2006 SCPPA RFP – potential acquisition of multiple projects
LADWP 2007 RFP – development on LADWP properties or near LADWP transmission system
MW* GWh %DWP 2010 Sales
Total New+Existing 3, , % **
*nameplate
** exceeds 20% to account for contract failure, scheduling delays, and achievement of 2020 target of 35% renewables
No transmission expansion is necessary to achieve 2010 targets, however expansion of Owens Valley corridor and Green Path North are critical for meeting 2020 goals.

13. Energy Efficiency Program
Key Program Changes to Increase Program Participation
Increase incentive levels for the most efficient equipment and appliances.
For many items, LADWP will cover up to 100% of incremental cost of the most efficient equipment and work directly with equipment manufacturers and vendors to promote program to their customers.
Expand list of qualifying technologies and implement programs to reach new market segments.
Includes both proven and innovative technologies and specialized programs for small business and other hard to reach markets.
New Program Areas
CFL Distribution, Low-Income Refrigerator Exchange, City Facility Assessments
New Rebate Offers
New Construction / LEED Incentives, Custom Performance Program, Refrigeration, Small Business Direct Install
Future Programs
Point of Sale Program, District Cooling Facility

14. Customer-Driven Investments
Distributed generation
The benefits for customer installed DG include waste heat recovery, backup power and power quality.
The benefits for utility installed DG include generation, transmission and distribution infrastructure deferral, and reduction of delivery losses.
Though a large amount of future DG installations are expected to be customer initiated, LADWP will also continue to self install a variety of distributed energy resources over the planning period totaling approximately 13 MW.
In Basin Solar
Plan to meet or exceed SB 1 target of 280 MW by 2017
“Minimum requirements” of law will not allow achievement of this goal. Recently announced “comprehensive plan” to:
- Expand current customer rebates under “CSI” program and remove barriers similar to proposed legislation
Offer “Standard Offer Power Purchase Agreements” to leverage private capital
Initiate self-build program for own facilities and other City buildings
Redistribute program benefits to low income customer base
Integrate solar with energy efficiency and Green Building practices for new construction

15. Planned Transmission Projects
Owens Valley Renewable Corridor (along Eastern Sierras)
2009: 450+ MW for wind/solar under construction, (real time monitoring to optimize loading of existing line);
2013: Construction of new 230 kv line plus substation upgrades to allow ~1200 MW new capacity
Green Path North Project (access to the Imperial Valley area)
: 1200 to 1600 MW for wind/solar/geothermal

16. AB32 Program: RPS as a Component
All utilities should have a goal of 35% renewable by 2020 and to increase and hone investments in energy efficiency until ALL cost-effective energy efficiency and net zero energy new construction targets are reached.
Actively engaged with CEC, CPUC and CARB on developing AB32 Implementation Measures
Need to realize the highest level of emission reductions in a way that preserves system reliability, and protects customers from rate shock.
Ensure that implementation strategy is consistent with the intent of AB32:
Makes environment and direct emissions reductions the focus and priority
Minimizes costs and maximizes benefits for CA’s economy.
Improves and modernizes CA’s energy infrastructure.
Maintains electric system reliability.
Maximizes additional environmental and economic co-benefits for CA.
Complements the State’s efforts to improve air quality.
Prefer direct investment in renewable energy, energy efficiency and other direct GHG reduction measures over the proposed complex market structure in the CPUC’s recent Proposed Decision .
Prevent a market based scheme that picks financial winners and losers rather than invests in emissions reductions.

22. The Renewable Portfolio Standard and AB 32

23. The Renewable Portfolio Standard and AB32
A strong RPS (33% or 35%) complements AB32.
The City of Los Angeles is already implementing the Mayor’s Green LA Plan which establishes the following Goals:
LADWP to reach 20% Renewables by 2010;
LADWP to reach 35% Renewables by 2020.
City-wide GHG emissions must be 35% below 1990 levels by 2030.
Any form of AB32 implementation needs to allow municipal utilities to retain the resources to continue to make these investments in direct emission reductions.
