16 PJM 101: An Introduction To PJM s Energy, Capacity and Ancillary Service Markets and How These Markets Impact Electricity Prices 20th Annual Ohio Energy Management Conference February 16 17, 2016 Kevin Murray McNees Wallace & Nurick LLC 21 East State Street 17th Floor Columbus, OH Direct Dial: murraykm@mwncmh.com 2015 McNees Wallace & Nurick LLC

17 Focus of This Presentation The Capacity Component of Your Bill Explanation of Reliability Pricing Model ( RPM ) Factors that influence RPM outcomes Demand Response Current options for managing energy and capacity spend Relationship to peak shaving options NOTE: This session covers what is ; PJM 201 (Wednesday at 11:15) will cover what may be McNees Wallace & Nurick LLC

18 What is New? Since last year s conference, PJM has implemented significant changes that impact the capacity product and prospective clearing prices: Capacity Performance o Phased in Transition Load Forecasting Methodology McNees Wallace & Nurick LLC

19 RPM Capacity prices are set by the RPM RPM is designed to obtain sufficient resources to meet the needs of consumers in PJM Goal is to cost effectively obtain resource commitments to ensure adequate resources every day of the year Obtains resource commitments to meet system loads three years in the future via the Base Residual Auction ( BRA ) Resources can be any type of power plant (nuclear, coal, gas, wind, solar, hydro, etc.), or demand response, or energy efficiency All utility members could choose to participate in RPM or opt out and become a Fixed Resource Requirement ( FRR ) entity No Ohio electric distribution companies are currently FRR entities Capacity is typically the second largest component of a retail customer s overall power price McNees Wallace & Nurick LLC

20 PJM determines the amount of capacity resources required to serve forecast peak load PJM adds an installed reserve margin to load forecast 16.7%% reserve margin for June 1, 2016 to May 31, 2017 Reliability criterion based on loss of load expectation not exceeding one event in 10 years PJM identifies any constrained sub regions and establishes separate locational deliverability areas ( LDAs ) 17 An area can be constrained due to transmission limitations These LDAs are cleared separately in RPM auction o o RPM Process Starting June 1, 2015, American Transmission Systems, Inc. ( ATSI ) is a separate LDA o Price separation occurred for 2015/2016 and 2016/2017 delivery years; no separation in 2017/2018 AEP Ohio, Duke and Dayton Power & Light are Rest of Market 2015 McNees Wallace & Nurick LLC

21 RPM Auction BRA is held three years prior to the start of delivery year PJM Delivery Year runs June 1 to May 31 BRA held in May 2016 will be for the 2019/2020 Delivery Year Three Incremental Auctions ( IAs ) held between BRA and Delivery Year PJM updates forecasts and balances the amount of capacity required o PJM may be short or long on capacity based on updated load forecasts Allows generators and demand response participants the ability to manage their portfolios Three IAs are held at set times each year First: 20 months prior to delivery Second: 10 months prior to delivery Third: 3 months prior to delivery McNees Wallace & Nurick LLC

22 Rest of Market BRA Clearing Prices Auction Date Delivery Period (June 1 to May 31) BRA Value ($/MW Day) May /2008 $40.80 July /2009 $ October /2010 $ February /2011 $ May /2013 $ May /2013 $16.46 May /2014 $27.73 May /2015 $ May /2016 $ May /2017 $59.37 * May /2018 $ * August /2019 See explanation that follows * Final results affected by Capacity Performance transition auctions McNees Wallace & Nurick LLC

23 Capacity Performance Fundamental RPM rule changes went into effect Summer 2015 Outgrowth of 2014 Polar Vortex experience Two capacity products: Capacity Performance ( CP ) and Base Capacity ( BC ) CP resources must be capable of sustained, predictable operation yearround, including the coldest winter day o Subject to non performance charge during emergency conditions throughout the Delivery Year BC resources are those capacity resources not capable of such sustained, predictable operations year round but capable of providing energy and reserves during hot weather operations o Subject to non performance charge during emergency conditions during June through September o BC product eliminated effective 2020/2021 Delivery Year Limited DR and extended summer DR eliminated effective 2018/2019 Delivery Year o Effectively rolled into BC product Annual Demand Response ( DR ) can provide CP McNees Wallace & Nurick LLC

24 Capacity Perfomance Enhanced penalties for non performance by CP resources Resource's expected performance compared to actual performance during Performance Assessment Hours ( PAHs ) PAHs are triggered by PJM's declaration of emergency actions Shortfall subject to non performance charge o o CP: Net Cost of New Entry ( CONE ) divided by the assumed 30 PAHs per year BC: Resource clearing price divided by the assumed 30 PAHs per year Bonus performance may be eligible for performance credit Increase in the generator offer cap to Net CONE x balancing ratio Roughly 85% of Net CONE or $250/MW day Elimination of the 2.5% holdback, effective 2018/2019 Delivery Year McNees Wallace & Nurick LLC

25 CP Transition Auctions Gradual phase in to 100% CP resources by 2020/2021 Up to 60% CP in 2016/2017 Up to 70% CP in 2017/ % CP in 2018/2019 and 2019/2020 Transition auctions for voluntary commitments of CP resources in 2016/2017 and 2017/2018, with gradually escalating CP requirements, offer caps and penalties No locational specific requirements; therefore, each auction cleared at a single clearing price McNees Wallace & Nurick LLC

26 Rest of Market Auction Clearing Prices with CP Auction Date Delivery Period (June 1 to May 31) Clearing Price ($/MW Day) August /2017 $98.29 September /2018 $ August /2019 $ ATSI Zone Cleared at $ per MW-Day for the 2016/2017 delivery period McNees Wallace & Nurick LLC

27 Calculating Your Capacity Obligation Capacity Peak Load Share (PLS) Based on average of your coincidental peak matched against highest five summer (June, July, August) hours against all of PJM Forecast Pool Requirement Added capacity planned to meet the unforced reserve margin Zonal Scaling Factor Accounts for forecasted load growth versus prior year and any changes to capacity portfolio. These are electric distribution company (EDC) specific. Capacity Obligation Amount of capacity supplier must procure to serve your facility Date/Hour Your Peak (MW) 17: : : : : PLS.569 X Forecast Pool Requirement X Zonal Scaling Factor Your Capacity Obligation =.660 MW 660 KW 24 PLS may also be subject to a weather normalization adjustment 2015 McNees Wallace & Nurick LLC

28 Calculating Your Capacity Cost Reliability Price Model (RPM) The final RPM rate consists of a weighted average of the Base Residual Auction and the three incremental auctions Capacity Cost RPM price times your Capacity Obligation in MW Day. Suppliers purchase adequate RPM Capacity and convert to kwh costs for inclusion in fixed price or capacity can be passed through via a monthly demand charge Your Capacity Obligation.660 MW 25 X 2013/2014 RPM Rate $232.55/MW-Day 2015 McNees Wallace & Nurick LLC X Days 365 = Capacity Cost $56,021.30/yr, $4,668.44/mo or $0.014/KWh

29 Your Takeaways Understand your peak consumption to determine if you can take action to lower your peak and, thus, lower your PLS, and, thus, lower your capacity costs Many competitive retail electric suppliers ( CRES ) are willing to contract for generation supply with capacity costs exclusively on a pass through basis Monthly charges change automatically when quantity and price change New capacity obligations take effect each January New capacity prices take effect each June McNees Wallace & Nurick LLC

30 Demand Response Options (as they currently exist) 1.

45 An Introduction to PJM s Energy, Capacity and Ancillary Service Markets and How These Markets Impact Electricity Prices Lou D Alessandris Senior Market Policy Specialist Ohio Energy Management Conference Columbus, Ohio February 16, 2016

46 Buses, Hubs and Zones PJM s energy markets are organized around buses, hubs and zones Buses are individual pricing points Each power plant has its own bus Load clusters have their own bus Generators get paid at generation bus; loads pay based on load buses Hubs are centralized commercial trading points Main hubs for Ohio use are AEP-Dayton and Western Group of buses Price is less volatile than at a single bus Zones are transmission-defined areas Hourly-priced contracts with retail suppliers are typically priced at the respective zonal Locational Margin Price (LMP), made up of buses in that zone ATSI, AEP, Dayton, Duke Each power plant and load center has its own bus; there are nearly 11,000 buses on the PJM system Ohio Energy Management Conference February 16,

47 Two Markets PJM has both a Day-Ahead energy market and a Real-Time energy market Provides market participants with option to participate in a forward market for electric energy Both markets set prices in the same fashion Load serving entities (LSEs) forecast and bid demand in the Day-Ahead energy market Day-ahead market is a financial market Prices are set hourly for the next operating day PJM goes back and conducts a reliability assessment commitment if they determine more generation is likely needed Real-Time market is a physical market based on actual system conditions Prices are set every five minutes based on actual conditions If your contract with your supplier is: Fixed: likely scheduling power in the day-ahead market Hourly: likely using the real-time market Ohio Energy Management Conference February 16,

48 Security Constrained Economic Dispatch PJM utilizes security constrained economic dispatch to meet the needs of customers at the lowest cost Subject to transmission and operational constraints Subject to generator constraints (minimum run time, maximum run time, minimum down time, maximum daily starts, maximum weekly starts, etc.) Stack generator offers from lowest to highest Begin dispatching generators starting from the lowest cost solution and moving up the stack until customer load needs are met If dispatched, generators receive the same energy payment regardless of their offer price Economic theory dictates this provides the least-cost solution over time Ultimate payment depends on transmission congestion and losses Ohio Energy Management Conference February 16,

49 Locational Marginal Price (LMP) LMP is the cost to serve the next megawatt of load at a specific location using the lowest production cost of all available generation, while observing all transmission limits LMP System Energy Price Transmission Congestion Cost Cost of Transmission Losses Ohio Energy Management Conference February 16,

50 System Energy Price The System Energy Price is calculated by PJM and represents the optimal system dispatch Ignores congestion Same price for every bus in PJM LMP System Energy Price Transmission Congestion Cost Cost of Transmission Losses Ohio Energy Management Conference February 16,

51 System Energy Price Simple Example Lower Price Higher Price Generator A 400 MW $30/MWH Generator C 300 MW $37/MWH Not Dispatched Not Dispatched Dispatched 90 MW Dispatched 400 MW Generator B 200 MW $35/MWH Generator D 500 MW $45/MWH Load Center 490 MW PJM Dispatches 400 MW from Generator A, 90 MW from Generator B. Load pays $35/MWH Generators A and B are paid $35/MWH Ohio Energy Management Conference February 16,

52 System Energy Price Simple Example Lower Price Higher Price Generator D 500 MW $45/MWH Generator C 300 MW $37/MWH Generator B 200 MW $35/MWH Generator A 400 MW $30/MWH Not Dispatched Dispatched 10 MW Dispatched 200 MW Dispatched 400 MW Load Center 490 MW 610 MW PJM Dispatches 400 MW from Generator A, 200 MW from Generator B, 10 MW from Generator C Load pays $37/MWH Generators A, B and C are paid $37/MWH Ohio Energy Management Conference February 16,

53 Transmission Congestion Cost Congestion is a situation in which heavy use of the electric grid prevents the lowest-priced electricity from flowing to a specific area Would be zero if no constraints Used to price congestion on the system Load pays congestion price; generators (or holders of financial transmission rights) are paid congestion price LMP System Energy Price Transmission Congestion Cost Cost of Transmission Losses Ohio Energy Management Conference February 16,

54 Transmission Congestion Simple Example Lower Price Higher Price Generator D 500 MW $45/MWH Generator C 300 MW $37/MWH Generator B 200 MW $35/MWH Generator A 400 MW $30/MWH Dispatched 0 MW 110 MW Dispatched 10 MW 300 MW Dispatched 200 MW Dispatched 400 MW 0 MW Load Center 610 MW PJM Dispatches 200 MW from Generator B, 300 MW from Generator C, 110 MW from Generator D Load pays $45/MWH ($37 energy, $8 congestion) Generator D is paid $45/MWH, Generators B and C are paid $37/MWH* * Holders of FTRs receive the difference in revenue Ohio Energy Management Conference February 16,

55 Transmission Losses Losses occur when electricity is transmitted over distances The longer the distance, the greater the losses The lower the voltage, the greater the losses Transmission losses are priced according to marginal loss factors Varies by location Load pays the loss price; generation is paid the loss price LMP System Energy Price Transmission Congestion Cost Cost of Transmission Losses Ohio Energy Management Conference February 16,

56 Transmission Losses Simple Example Lower Price Higher Price Generator D 500 MW $45/MWH Generator C 300 MW $37/MWH Generator B 200 MW $35/MWH Generator A 400 MW $30/MWH Not Dispatched Dispatched 10 MW 30 MW Dispatched 200 MW Dispatched 400 MW Load Center 610 retail (630 MW with losses) PJM Dispatches 400 MW from Generator A, 200 MW from Generator B, 30 MW from Generator C Generators A, B and C are paid $37/MWH, but load pays $38.21 ($37 energy, $1.21 losses) Ohio Energy Management Conference February 16,

57 LMP February 18, 2015, 7:55am Ohio Energy Management Conference February 16,

58 Simple Examples Are NOT Reality The preceding examples were simplified for ease of understanding The PJM system is far more complex than the three generator/one load center (four bus) examples shown PJM has nearly 11,000 buses used in LMP calculations LMP is calculated every hour in the day-ahead market, every five minutes in the real-time market PJM runs ~4,000 what if scenarios every five minutes to proactively correct the system in the event of a transmission outage Losses are calculated based a generator s distance from a system load center point that changes every five minutes Losses are rolled back into energy price offers prior to the system energy price calculation Ohio Energy Management Conference February 16,
