4 Goshen, Idaho Study Blue outlined area is an approximation of the Rocky Mountain Power's Service territory as shown by Power Map. Goshen Substation

5 Goshen, Idaho Study Urban and agricultural areas: Service to portions of Bingham, Bonneville, Butte, Clark, Fremont, Jefferson, Lemhi, Madison and Teton counties Larger Communities served: Ammon, Rexburg, Rigby, Shelley & Sugar City Largest population center is Idaho Falls City, which has its own municipality

6 Goshen, Idaho Study Utilities, Municipalities, Rural Electric Associations (REA) in the area: Bonneville Power Administration (BPA) Fall River Electric Association Idaho Falls City Power Idaho Power Lost River Electric Cooperative Lower Valley Electric Rocky Mountain Power (RMP)

7 Load Growth 2009 Demand Total Area load: summer 755 MVA Growth Rate: 2.6% summer & 2.7% winter Anticipated 2014 Demand Total Area load: 917 MVA

8 250 MVA of participating Load

9 Sub-Transmission Substations Goshen, Idaho study has eight operating areas: Amps, Scoville (Antelope), Big Grassy, Bonneville, Goshen, Jefferson, Rigby and Sugarmill

10 Big Grassy Amps Jefferson Rigby Bonneville Antelope (Scoville) Sugarmill Goshen

11 N-0 Conditions Idaho Falls Power : kv, 25MVA transformer at Westside substation kv, 25MVA mobile.

12 N-0 Conditions Problem: Low voltage on the 69 kv bus at Hamer in Solution: Change source for Hamer by transferring to Jefferson.

13 N-0 Conditions Problem: Excessive voltage swings at Big Grassy. Transmission path, load swings and phase shifter largely effect voltage. Solution: New cap bank at Big Grassy: 33 Mvar Install 69kV, (3) steps of 11 Mvar each cap bank, In-service spring, Arrangement and controls, similar to Amps Cap Bank 2. Voltage control on Circuit Switchers 3. SCADA on new circuit breaker and circuit switchers. 4. Proper Protection and Control. To Jefferson 3 Ci r* 3 cui Circuit t Br eaker Switchers s Mobile Connection Big Grassy Substation 69 kv To Dillon 161 kv kv 3-11 MVAR To Sandune * Review cost of circuit switchers and regular switch. If switch is less can install 2 circuit switches and one switch. S. Murdock, Area Planning S. Smith, Planning Technologies BigGrasseyCapBank.cdr 2/27/2009

14 N-0 Conditions Problem: Dubois, Hamer, Mud Lake, Ririe, South Fork and Thornton have regulators which will overload. Solution: Upgrade regulators at Dubois (2012), South Fork (2013) and Thornton (2009). Distribution load transfers* mitigate the other substations overloads. *The Mud Lake Transfer (2011) will require distribution circuit upgrades.

15 N-0 Conditions Problem: Moody (2013), Goshen #7 (2011) and Ucon (2014) transformers will overload. Solution: Distribution load transfers*. *The Moody Transfer will require distribution circuit upgrades.

16 N-0 Conditions Problem: Rigby-Ucon 69 kv line overloaded in last study year. Solution: Change Ucon source to Goshen. Solution: Ririe 69 kv Tap Line overload in last year Solution: Distribution Load transfers. P A G E - 16

17 N-1 Conditions Problem: Loss of a kV transformer at Goshen may result in overload of the remaining transformer up to 107% today, 113% in 2014*. Solution: Third party work at Three Mile Knoll shifts load from Goshen. *This is anticipating the local generation output is average.

18 N-1 Conditions Problem: Loss of a Rigby kv transformer Solution: Using a mobile back-up transformer (located at Goshen substation) corrects the Problem through the study period. Some load (10 MVA to 30 MVA throughout the study period) will be out during the installation of the mobile.

19 N-1 Conditions Problem: Loss of Goshen-Bonneville 161 kv line overloads the Goshen-Sugarmill 161 kv line. In 2014 this overload is three percent over the emergency rating. Solution: Reconductor the existing line (16.5 miles) with a 400 MVA rated conductor in 2014.

20 N-1 Conditions Underrated Fault Duty Equipment Problem: Total number is 6 pieces of equipment are underrated for fault duty Solution: Goshen CB 165, Goshen CS167I, Goshen CS169I, Goshen CS 189I, Goshen 199I and the Goshen #7 High side fuses Replace Circuit Switchers, fuses and Breaker during regular maintenance to insure proper fault interrupting. Underrated Switch Problem: Switches at Jeffco: 61A, 63A; Osgood: 1, 3; Rexburg Jct. 67A, 68A; and Ucon 61A, 62A have no capability to break parallel.

28 Coleman Transformer #4 Problem 2013 the area utilization for Coleman and Crosshollow is projected to be over 90%. Solution Replace Transformer #4 with a 40 MVA transformer and replace the 12.5 kv bus with 2000A rated bus. Estimated Cost: $3.25 million

29 Parowan Coleman Substation Coleman 138 kv breaker Problem An outage on the 138 kv line between Coleman and West Cedar will result in a loss of Crosshollow substation and all four transformers at Coleman. Solution Install a 138 kv breaker where switch 107A is located. Estimated Cost: $400, kv 69 kv and below West Cedar

30 Middleton 138 kv breaker Problem An outage to either 138/69 kv transformer results in a loss of both transformers and all 69 kv loads fed from Middleton. Solution Install a 138 kv breaker and 138 kv bus to separate transformers #4 and #5. Estimated Cost: $1.5 million

31 Middleton to St George 138 kv line Problem An outage on the 138 kv line between Middleton and St George will cause a loss of Middleton substation and approximately 50 MW. Solution Install a second 138 kv line between Middleton and St George with added breaker positions at each substation. Estimated Cost: $3 million

32 Parowan 230 kv switch 138 kv 230 kv Cameron and Coleman Problem An outage on the 230 kv line between Sigurd and Parowan will cause an outage to West Cedar resulting in the 138 kv voltage between Coleman and Cameron to fall below.95 pu. The 230 kv line from Sigurd to Parowan to West Cedar will be out until repairs are complete. West Cedar Solution Install a 230 kv switch at Parowan on the line to Sigurd. Sigurd Estimated Cost: $200,000

33 West Cedar 138 kv breaker Problem An outage to the 230/138 kv transformer at West Cedar will result in a loss of the north side of the 138 kv bus and the 138/34.5 kv transformer which feeds the 34.5 kv in Iron County. Solution Install a 138 kv breaker on the low side of the 230/138 kv transformer. Sigurd Estimated Cost: $900, kv 138 kv 230 kv West Cedar Substation Red Butte Parowan Commerce

34 Three Peaks and Parowan Substations Problem Limited sources to Iron county with low voltage on the 138 kv system in steady-state conditions.

35 To Sigurd To Parowan Red Butte to St. George Rebuild 138 kv line to 345 kv double circuit To Harry Allen Problem The 138 kv lines from Red Butte and Central to St George are the main sources for Washington county. The growth in will require an additional 345 kv source to St George and this is the first phase of the project. Solution Rebuild existing 138 kv line between Red Butte and St George to double circuit 345 kv and initially operate single circuit 138 kv. Construction to be completed in Estimated Cost: $15.7 million

Projected to be operated 345 kv around 2017 to Estimated Cost: $2 million

39 Middleton to Gateway, finish 138 kv conversion Problem The single delivery point at St George substation for Washington county provides a reliability issue for the area. Also, by 2012 Middleton #4 138/69 kv transformer will not be able to support the 69 kv load with an outage to the Middleton #5 138/69 kv transformer. Solution Complete 138 kv conversion of 69 kv line from Middleton to Gateway in 2013 removing part of the 69 kv load fed from Middleton. Connect with proposed 345/138 kv substation in west Hurricane to provide an alternate source to the area. Estimated Cost: $15 million
