1933 – President Roosevelt Signs The TVA Act

3

“Power is really a secondary matter … TVA is primarily intended to change and to improve the standards of living of the people of that Valley.” — President Franklin D. Roosevelt During a news conference at

Warm Springs, Ga., Nov. 23, 1934

Statutory Standards

• TVA is a creature of Federal statute, and those statutes govern the

criteria by which we make resource selections, on both the supply and demand side.

• Specifically, those statutes require us to . . .

– Use a least-cost planning program to select energy resources.

• In doing this, we are directed to consider diversity of resources,

resource operability, system reliability, risks and environmental compliance costs. All toward the goal of providing electricity to the public we serve reliably and at the lowest feasible cost.

Asset Decisions

18 – Coal units idled/retired due to EPA agreement 14 – Coal units idled/retired as an option under/beyond EPA agreement 2 – Coal units still under evaluation 25 – Coal units that will remain in the fleet

Hydro Modernization

• Average age of hydro fleet is

61 years with 15 units over 75 years

• Needed to maintain reliability
• Potential for ~200 MW

additional capacity

12

Clean Air Regulations

• CAA, CSAPR, MATS, etc.
• 111(d) Rule
• TVA invested $5.6B in cleaner energy and

clean air

• NOX and SO2 emissions reduced by more

than 90%

• 30% reduction of CO2 since 2005;

40% by 2020

• Adding about 1,800MWs of carbon free

generation to the fleet
