Basic Components of an IRP

Inputs Outputs

  • Need, i.e. forecasted demand
  • Existing contracts and

resource commitments

  • Future procurement constraints
  • Characteristics and availability of

resource options for filling net

  • pen position
  • Preferred mix of resources to

pursue in future procurement activities

  • Depending on techniques used,

estimates of cost, GHG impact, and/or other characteristics of hypothetical portfolio scenarios

SVCE Board CPUC SVCE Staff

Staff prepare the IRP and submit it to the Board

The CPUC certifies the IRP , and provides information on system- wide outcomes that impacts development of future IRPs

The Board approves the IRP , allowing submission to the CPUC

The Energy Landscape has Changed Since SVCE Launched

“Reliability and cost considerations are coequal goals with the GHG emissions goals in IRP, and are integral to a successful IRP.”

“Renewable and storage resources alone are not sufficient, at present, … to provide enough renewable integration services to result in electric system reliability at the system level.”

  • 1. Carbon-Free Resources: Hydro,

Nuclear and Carbon-Free Allocations

➢ 2018 IRP: Pacific Northwest (“PNW”) large hydro comprised the entirety of SVCE’s non-RPS portfolio ➢ 2020 IRP Staff Proposal: ➢ Continue to pursue large hydroelectric resources both in-state and from PNW ➢ Consider use of carbon-free options including allocation of nuclear (through 2025) and carbon offsets

2.a. RPS Resources: Percentage

➢ 2018 IRP: RPS-eligible resources maintained at 50% of SVCE resource portfolio through 2030 ➢ 2020 IRP Staff Proposal: ➢ 2.a. Maintain RPS-eligible resources at 50% of portfolio through 2025 and increase to 60% by 2030 to match State requirement

Maintain RPS at 50% in perpetuity Minimum compliance RPS % Minimum compliance + X% RPS Maintain 50% RPS through 2025; achieve 60% by 2030

2.b. RPS Resources: Technologies

➢ 2018 IRP: After expiration of existing short-term contracts, planned RPS procurement included only wind and solar. Biomass and geothermal excluded at Board suggestion. ➢ 2020 IRP Staff Proposal: ➢ 2.b. Match CEC-eligible renewables including: small hydro, biomass, binary geothermal, conventional geothermal and biomethane in addition to wind and solar

  • 2c. RPS Resources: New & Long-

Term vs Existing & Short-Term Contracts

➢ 2018 IRP: Conservative approach of minimum amount of long-term (10+ years) contracting required to achieve compliance with state requirements, with remainder of open position filled with short-term contracting ➢ 2020 IRP Staff Proposal: ➢ 2.c. Pursue 40% RPS from new and long-term renewables by 2023 and balance via existing and short-term resources

Summary of 2020 IRP Staff Proposals

➢ Carbon-Free Resources:

  • Continue to pursue large hydroelectric resources both in-state and from

PNW.

  • Consider use of carbon-free options including allocation of nuclear (through

2025) and carbon offsets ➢ RPS Resources:

  • Maintain RPS-eligible resources at 50% of portfolio through 2025 and

increase to 60% by 2030 to match State requirement

  • Match CEC-eligible renewables including: small hydro, biomass, binary

geothermal, conventional geothermal and biomethane in addition to wind and solar

  • Pursue 40% RPS from new and long-term renewables by 2023 and balance

via existing and short-term resources

Next Steps

➢ Board members interested in further discussion of any of these topics are encouraged to contract SVCE staff for individual meetings ➢ A second workshop or agenda item will be scheduled in October to review refined versions of these proposals and discuss further issues ➢ Fall 2019 will focus on modeling and developing portfolio scenarios ➢ Goal is to bring draft IRP to Board for review in early 2020
