THE RESILIENT POWER PROJECT

  • Increase public/private investment in clean, resilient power systems

(solar+storage)

  • Protect low-income and vulnerable communities, with a focus on affordable

housing and critical public facilities

  • Engage city, state and federal policy makers to develop supportive policies and

programs

  • Visit www.resilient-power.org for more information and resources

SUPPORTING 100+ PROJECTS ACROSS THE COUNTRY

Portland: Assessment

  • f 10 LMI properties

including affordable housing, foodbanks, medical centers, and shelters DC: Largest solar+storage installation at affordable housing in the country California: Multiple housing properties representing hundreds

  • f units of affordable

housing Puerto Rico: Supporting the installation of solar+storage at more than 60 medical clinics Boston Medical Center: One of the first hospitals in the country to install storage for resiliency

RESILIENT SOUTHEAST REPORT SERIES

3

  • Detailed analytical analysis to determine the

economic viable of solar and battery storage

  • Policy, regulatory, and market landscape review
  • Set of recommendations for advancing resilient

power in the Southeast

RESILIENT SOUTHEAST WHY?

4

  • Hurricane Florence (2018): 1+ million outages

across Carolinas

  • Hurricane Michael (2018): 300,000+ outages in

Georgia

  • Hurricane Irma (2017): 6 million outages in Florida
  • Hurricane Katrina (2005): 900,000 outages in

Louisiana, 42% of state

slide-11
SLIDE 11

ANALYIS METHODOLOGY

5

  • Economic Scenario: Most cost-effective system

configuration based on electric bill savings opportunities and available incentives - maximize NPV

  • Resilient Scenario: System capable of providing onsite

backup power to keep critical services powered and

  • perational for at least several hours during a grid outage
  • Avoided Outage Costs: The value of losses that would

be incurred if a facility were to experience a power outage without a backup source of energy

SOLAR & STORAGE RECOMMENDATIONS

13

  • Allocate grant funding for solar+storage demonstration

projects

  • Establish public technical assistance funding
  • Provide targeted incentives for battery storage
  • Establish energy storage procurement targets and goals
  • Create market opportunities for energy storage to provide

grid services

  • Include energy storage in state energy efficiency programs

($460 million)

  • Include resilient power in disaster relief funding

Regulatory Landscape

  • Appetite for Resilience
  • 100 Resilient Cities – Resilience and Climate Action Strategies
  • New Orleans / Louisiana
  • Regulation bifurcated thanks to Home Rule Charter
  • New Orleans City Council regulates Entergy New Orleans
  • Entergy N.O. : Vertically Integrated Investor Owned Utility

Entergy Adding Solar

  • 90 MW utility scale ( outcome of 2016 RFP)
  • Application underway (not yet approved/settled)
  • Three projects: 2 PPA outside New Orleans +1 Utility Self Build in

Orleans Parish

  • 5MW distributed commercial-scale rooftop
  • Approved 2018 - $2.32 /watt, deployment underway
  • 1 MW solar + 500 kw storage installation, complete in 2016.
  • ~$6.5M
  • No data available – not a Council approved project
slide-27
SLIDE 27

Current Planning Problems

  • Integrated Resource Planning is all about incremental capacity

additions.

  • Utility states they do not have a way to include distribution planning

in IRP.

  • Scorecard to rank potential portfolios doesn’t include a resilience

metric.

  • Storage cannot not included as Demand Side Management.
  • No resource acquisition requirement in place.
  • competitive solicitation, all source, request for proposal, market mechanism
  • Reliability is sub-par ~2,600 outages annually
slide-28
SLIDE 28

Policies

  • Community Solar – Enabled March 2019
  • Integrated Resource Plan – Underway through Fall 2019
  • Renewable Portfolio Standard – Underway through Fall 2019
  • Request for Proposal rulemaking – Underway
  • Prudence review :sub-par reliability – Underway through

Summer 2019

  • Rate Case – Underway, rates in force September 2019
