1 1 PG&E and Renewables Finding the ROI in Green Programs Andrew Yip Manager Solar and Customer Generation Integrated Demand-Side Management
2 Pacific Gas and Electric Company Energy services to 15 MM people: 5.1 MM Electric customer accounts 4.3 MM Natural Gas accounts 70,000 square miles with diverse topography 20,000 employees A regulated investor-owned utility Serve 5% of U.S. population, but produce only 1% of utility sector C02 emissions The most grid-connected PV systems in the U.S. Ranked the greenest utility in the United States 2
3 Progressive Energy Policy Long-standing State policies lower carbon footprint 30+ years of energy efficiency programs facilitated by decoupling of rates California Energy Action Plan s preferred loading order: 1. Customer Energy Efficiency and Demand Response 2. New Renewable and Distributed Generation 3. Clean gas-fired plants 3
4 A Growing Reliance On Renewables % Non-emitting ~63% Non-emitting 4
5 PG&E Renewable Programs The Program Design Shifts as Generation Capacity Increases California Solar Initiative Available PG&E Programs Self Generation Incentive Program Solar Water Heating (CSI Thermal) Net Energy Metering (NEM) Renewable Feed-in Tariff Programs Renewables RFO Utility Owned Renewables System Size 1 kw 10 kw 100 kw 1 MW 10 MW 100 MW ++ Customer-scale Utility-scale 5
6 Balancing Competing Priorities Environmental Sustainability Reliable Service Reasonable Cost 6
7 Integration of EE and DG EE should be considered prior to DG Why? EE is typically much more cost-effective than DG California s loading order requires that EE be implemented prior to DG Decreasing a facility s consumption with EE reduces the size (and cost) of DG system necessary to offset facility s load 7
8 PG&E Customer-Side Renewable Energy Programs Solar Incentive Programs Non-Solar Incentive Programs PG&E Program California Solar Initiative (CSI) Low-Income CSI Programs New Solar Homes Partnership (NSHP) California Solar Initiative (CS) - Thermal Self Generation Incentive Program (SGIP) Net Energy Metering What is it? An incentive program for customer-side solar, designed to help customers reduce on-site load Incentive programs for customer-side solar, specifically for low-income applications An incentive program for customer-side solar for new residential developments An incentive program for the installation of solar water heating technologies An incentive program for customer-side fuel cells, wind, and advanced energy storage (coupled with a wind or fuel cell) A tariff that permits customers to bank solar electricity produced that is in excess of instantaneous consumption Customer- or utilityside? Customer-side Customer-side Customer-side Customer side Customer side Customer-side Eligible participants PG&E customers PG&E customers Housing developers in PG&E territory PG&E customers PG&E customers PG&E customers Eligible system sizes 1 kw 5 MW* 1 kw 5 MW* kw Up to $500,000 for gas customers and $250,000 for electric customers 1 kw 5 MW** 1 kw 1 MW Financial opportunity Incentives from $ /W (one-time, up-front payment) or $ /kWh (paid monthly for 5 years) Incentives vary; up to entire cost of PV system $2.50/W - $3.60/W, depending on home s efficiency Incentives from $12.82/therm displaced or $0.37/kWh displaced Incentives from $1.50/W - $4.50/W depending on technology and fuel type Retail rate for electricity supplied to grid; annual trueup period (no net export) References rnia.com incomesolar ves.org/sash nshp ermal * Incentives available up to 1 MW ** Tiered Incentives available up to 3 MW 8

15 New Solar Homes Partnership (NSHP) PG&E began administering in 2007 Statewide Objective: 400 MW of installed solar on new homes in California Establish a self-sufficient solar industry where solar energy systems are a viable mainstream option for new homes by 2016 Place solar energy systems on 50% of the new homes by the end of program Project must exceed the current Title 24 by 15% PG&E NSHP Received over 700 applications for over 5,000 sites Paid over $10M for a total of 6.7 MW (CEC AC) 15
16 NSHP Incentive Structure - Incentives decline as megawatt targets are achieved - Additional incentives for offering solar as a standard 16
17 CSI Thermal Solar Water Heating (SWH) Significantly increase the size of the SWH market in California Displace 585 million therms (equivalent to 200,000 single family residential systems) over the 25 year life of the systems Displace million kilowatt hour (kwh) per year (equivalent to 100,800 single family residential systems) Support 16% reduction in the cost of SWH systems by 2018 Reduce market barriers to SWH adoption 1. high permitting costs 2. lack of trained installers 3. lack of consumer knowledge and confidence in SWH technology Residential: Launched May 2010 Pool and Spa Solar Water Heating: Not Eligible Solar Space Heating and Cooling: not eligible at this time Commercial/Multifamily: Launched October
