  • WECC and its stakeholders developed the

four future scenarios for the Western Interconnection based on a “focus question” developed during a scenario development workshop held March 27-28, 2018 at WECC’s headquarters in Salt Lake City, Utah.

How might customer demand How do we define customers, in what segments

  • r categories? With DER? Grid connected?

for electric services What services beyond commodity supply of electricity? What kinds of enhanced services? in the Western Interconnection evolve as new technologies Technology innovation that affects distributed energy as well as utility scale supply and delivery systems. and policies Policies at all levels. create more market options, and with that, Markets: regulated and unregulated. Options: Power supplies. what risks and opportunities may emerge for the power industry Who and what players will be in it? in sustaining electric reliability? What risks to the reliability of the BPS in the Western Interconnection? What standards and requirements apply?

Capital Expansion Costs

slide-37
SLIDE 37
  • 1.76% Weighted Average CAGR for Western

Interconnection based on IRPs.

  • NREL EFS bottoms-up approach to load

modeling suggests most electrification load growth will come from Electric Vehicles.

  • Electrification, in this study, focused on fuel-

switching transition.

37

Key Takeaways – Load Growth

slide-38
SLIDE 38
  • Main Contributors to Occurrences of

Unserved Load:

  • Diurnal Electrification Demand Higher at

Evening Peak

  • Displaced Baseload Resources (Coal)
  • Higher Penetrations of Variable Resources

(Especially Solar).

  • Storage and Dispatchable Demand-Side

Options Highly Effective at Reducing Unserved Load.

38

Key Takeaways – Unserved Load

slide-39
SLIDE 39
  • Increased dependence on gas, solar, and wind for

resource adequacy.

  • Coal displaced.
  • Increased dependence on gas for flexibility.
  • Solar, without storage partner, contributes little

to ELCC at evening peak.

  • Gas was marginal in commitment at peak.
  • Storage and demand-side management highly

effective to mitigate against unserved load by flattening the diurnal load shapes.

39

Key Takeaways – Resource Mix

slide-40
SLIDE 40
  • DER expected to double by 2038.
  • Growth in DER expected to come primarily

from solar PV.

  • Electric vehicles (EV) are the wild card in

DER growth, depending on deployment and implementation strategies.

  • Time-of-use strategies for EV could be of

great benefit or detriment.

40

Key Takeaways – DER

slide-41
SLIDE 41
  • California largest importer (yesterday, today,

tomorrow).

  • Rocky Mountain region becomes net importer

with coal retirements.

  • Exports from the Desert Southwest and Basin

regions increase with increases solar and coal retirements.

  • Path transfers from Desert Southwest and

through Basin increase.

  • Energy production from Desert Southwest

especially important during Winter months.

41

Key Takeaways – Inter-Regional

slide-42
SLIDE 42
  • Close correlation between LMP price spikes and

unserved load capped at $4000/MWh modeled in GridView.

  • LMPs range from high positive (unserved load) to

negative (energy spillage).

  • Energy spillage driven by higher levels of solar at

lower load levels.

  • LCOEs for new resources within the average PCM

commitment/dispatch window between $100/MWh and $25/MWh.

  • Life extension are estimated to be roughly 60% of

new builds.

42

Key Takeaways – Economics

slide-43
SLIDE 43
  • CO2 emissions in 2038 decreased by roughly

30% from that of 2018, from 0.27 billion metric tons to 0.19 billion metric tons, primarily due to the displacement of coal.

  • Water consumption for thermal cooling in

2038 decreased by roughly 19% from that of 2018, from 190 billion gallons to 154 billion gallons, primarily due to the displacement of coal.

43

Key Takeaways – Environmental
