Integrated Resource Planning: Objectives and Key Questions

  • Objectives:

– Sufficient Power Supply for Reliability & Low Costs – Meeting I-937 and Other Regulatory Requirements – Appropriate Mix of Cost and Risk

  • The IRP is About Three Key Questions:

– How Much Conservation and Resources? – When? – What Kind?

2010 IRP: Less Resources Needed to Preserve 95% Winter* Reliability

Accounts for Load Growth, Weather Impacts, Hydro Volatility, Forced Outages, Operating Reserves, Power Contract Terms and Expirations

Notes: Both 2008 and 2010 assume 100 aMW from wholesale spot market. Winter reliability-based resource needs are independent of I-937 requirements.

Other Issues Being Analyzed

  • Plug-In Hybrids & Electric Vehicles

– Update assumptions, consistent with Electric Power Research Institute study

  • Climate Change

– Update for New UW Research on Impacts to Hydro Generation and Electricity Demand

What’s Next?

  • Seek City Council Approval of Draft 2010 IRP
  • Incorporate Key Elements of the IRP into the

Strategic Plan Update as Appropriate

– Contributes to Customer Service, Operational Excellence, Environmental Stewardship, and Balanced Resource Portfolio in the Strategic Plan

  • Continue to acquire RECs and Renewable

Resources on a Path to Comply with 2016 Targets for I-937
