Out of Region Market Supply
Out of Region Market Supply
The 2008 Adequacy Standard has seasonal assessments of resource adequacy: summer and winter (3 months each)
The winter assessment assumes that 3,000 MW of out of region market is available on any hour (not the dispatch – just the capability)
The summer assessment assumes 0 Proposed new adequacy standard will be an annual assessment Need to update out of region market assumptions for not just
winter and summer, but also for the shoulder months Update the assessment by analyzing:
The California PUC Resource Adequacy Assessment to determine “surplus”
The rolling 5 year actual Intertie (A.C. and D.C. South to North) to determine the minimum transfer capability
CPUC RA Assessment (April 2011)
Assessment includes all IOUs and Community Choice Aggregators
Purpose of RA is mandatory LSE acquisition of capacity to meet load and reserve requirements
Results include unit-contingent, import contracts, DWR contracts, physical resources, and RMR capacity
Only net qualifying capacity is considered based on historical performance and other factors – designed to get the expected value of capacity (GADs data)
CPUC RA Assessment (April 2011)
Normal demand (1:2) plus a 15 percent adequacy requirement is the load that has to be met
Modified the analysis by: Assume that demand response programs (1,000 to 2,300
MW) are not available for ‘export’ The CPUC RA looks backward (2010); the PNW RA
looks forward (2015) – so include gas-fired plants that are not in the CPUC RA, but are under construction (4,767 MW)
Removed California imports as resources for exports
Gas-Fired Plants Under Construction
The CPUC RA assessment does not include these plants in their analysis

Surplus Transfer Capability PNW RA Assumption
Conclusion:
In 2015, there is enough surplus in the state of California and enough transfer capability to support 3,000 MW of imports October to April
From May to September, California relies heavily on imports to support their resource adequacy efforts and therefore no import capability should be assumed
Demand-Side Management and Small Miscellaneous Resources (non-modeled resources)
2008 Adequacy Standard
The 2008 Adequacy Standard included 3,000 MW (capacity) and 28,800 MWhrs (energy) as a proxy for emergency generation and/or demand response that are not modeled in Genesys
These thresholds are applied post processing to games that have events; those that exceed these thresholds are counted as “Loss-of-Load”
Proposal for new standard is to count specific resources that are available to utilities and are not modeled in Genesys
Emergency generators not owned or under contract with utilities are not considered (they number in the thousands of megawatts)
Demand-Side Management
Demand-side management (DSM) for irrigation pumps, A/C, and flexible load control (programs for use every year) Most of these resources are on AGC or prescheduled by utilities DSM geared towards summer peaking utilities By 2010, Idaho and PacifiCorp have developed over 600 MW of
DSM However, the Genesys load forecast for 2015 incorporates these
programs in the demand forecast Only incremental demand response programs beyond 2010 can be
included (to avoid double counting)
