WestConnect SWAT/SPPG Study Results FERC Order Customer and Stakeholder Input 5. Customer and Stakeholder Planned Projects (TBD) (Proposed projects) 6. Additional Items 7. Closing Comments 2
3 1. Nevada Power Filed its 2012 Integrated Resource Plan (IRP) covering the period on June 29, The 2012 IRP was designated as Docket
4 1. ON Line Transmission Project 2. Renewable Transmission Initiative 3. Harry Allen 500/230 kv Transformer 4. WestConnect 4
5 Project was approved by the PUCN in the Nevada Power 2009 IRP Filing and the Sierra 8 th Amendment to the 2007 IRP. NVE / LS ON Line Financial closing occurred on 2/11/11 5
6 SCOPE 235-mile 500 kv transmission line Robinson-Harry Allen Robinson Summit 500/345 kv substation Falcon-Gonder Fold Series compensation on the existing Falcon Gonder 345 kv line Harry Allen Terminal SPPC and NPC Balancing areas will be consolidated post ON- Line Original ON-Line project scheduled in service December
7 Wind Induced Vibration Issues In early December 2011 high sustained winds damaged several tubular guyed V towers Several potential tower modifications are currently undergoing testing In-service date of the project has been delayed to December 2013
8 The Harry Allen 500/230 kv transformer is the preferred alternative to provide additional capacity from the 500 kv system to the 230 kv system Project is preferred over the Sunrise Tap project, Thunderbird 500/230 kv substation, or Northwest 2 nd transformer and Northwest HA Line. Project would include the following elements: 1. 1,500 MVA 525/230 kv Autotransformer at Harry Allen MVA 230/138 kv Autotransformer at Clark Substation MVA 230/138 kv Autotransformer at Faulkner Substation
9 NPC is not recommending the installation of the Harry Allen 500/230 kv transformer at this time Project can be delayed with changes in operating procedures including Crystal PST operation, redispatch of Clark generation and Lenzie generation RAS Need for the project will be driven by: 1. Increases in load growth 2. Replacement of generation inside load pocket with external resources 3. New Transmission Service Agreements 4. Additional external renewable resources delivered 5. into the Las Vegas load pocket.
10 WestConnect Action Plan Funding 1. The WestConnect Steering Committee is a group of 17 transmission owners in the Southwest who have joined together for the following purposes: Continue investigation of cost effective transmission enhancements to serve wholesale markets. Pursue required regulatory approvals for transmission enhancements. Work cooperatively with other western grid organizations and market participants. 2. NPC has requested PUCN approval of funding for the continued participation in WestConnect. 10
11 kv Sunrise Tap Project 2. North Las Vegas VARS Project 3. Brooks 230/138/12 kv Substation 4. McDonald 230/138 kv Transformer 5. Darling 230/12 kv Substation 6. Southeast No. 2, 230/12 kv Substation 7. Northwest Second 500/230 kv transformer 11
12 1. Sierra Pacific filed its 2010 Integrated Resource Plan (IRP) covering the period on July 1, The 2010 IRP was designated as Docket The Public Utilities Commission Of Nevada (PUCN) issued its order on the IRP on 12/10/10 12
13 1. Fallon 230 kv Reinforcement 2. Bordertown to Cal Sub 120 kv Line 3. WestConnect Action Plan Funding 4. Blackhawk Project Request Cancelation 5. Blackhawk Mira Loma Line Request Cancelation 6. Blackhawk 345 kv Capacitor Request Cancelation 7. Plumas Sierra Interconnection Request Cancelation 13
14 Fallon 230 kv Reinforcement 1. The Fallon 230 kv reinforcement project original project scope included a 230 kv transmission line from the existing Salt Wells tap location on the Ft. Churchill Austin 230 kv line to the new Greenwave substation in Fallon. 2. Project would have interconnected two new geothermal projects and provide additional capacity to Fallon area loads. 3. Scope of the project has been reevaluated due to the cancellation of one geothermal project LGIA and a reduction in the Fallon area load growth. 4. Revised project scope includes construction of Pony Express switching station and acquisition of 230 kv transmission line from Austin-Frontier 230 kv line tap to Pony Express. 14
15 Bordertown to Cal Sub 120 kv Line 1. The project was approved by the PUCN in 2007 and includes the construction of a 345/120 kv transformer at Bordertown Substation and a new 120 kv line from Bordertown substation to California Substation. 2. Project would provide additional transmission support to the West Reno transmission system for outages of a North Valley Road transformer and N-1-1 outages of the 120 kv transmission system. 3. To date Sierra has not obtained the required permits for this line and permitting work is continuing. The in-service date for this project has been moved from 2012 to
16 Request to Cancel Previously Approved Projects 1. Due to the decrease in the forecast load growth Sierra requested and received PUCN approval to cancel the following previously approved transmission projects: Blackhawk Project Blackhawk Mira Loma Line Blackhawk 345 kv Capacitor Plumas Sierra Interconnection 16

21 Required by Assembly Bill 387 Process developed under PUCN Docket Identifies transmission plans and costs to access RETAAC/PUCN approved renewable energy zones NV Energy is required to file an RECTP in each triennial Integrated Resource Plan CREZTP was filed June 29, 2012 in the NPC IRP This RECTP integrates ON Line, RETAAC/PUCN, Western SOI, SWAT and SSPG work into comprehensive design. 21
22 The CREZTP is a conceptual plan to provide the transmission required to interconnect each of the renewable energy zones forecast by RETAAC. Elements of the plan include: Construct the ON Line Project Permit Harry Allen Northwest and Northwest Amargosa 500 kv lines. Permit Harry Allen Eldorado 500 kv line. Future elements could include construction of the West Side Tieline and required collector lines. Estimated cost of the RECTP is $4.3 billion. 22
23 Transmission proposed from four Points of Receipt (1-4) to three Points of Delivery (A-C) ~ 600 miles of potential EHV lines. Significant response on Sept. 16th, 2011 Study agreements sent Nov. 1st, 2011 Agreements due by Dec. 15th, 2011
24 Studies completed and given to participants April 27, 2012 Permitting and construction costs estimated have been completed RTI process has been concluded. Customer commitments were insufficient to fund Phase 2

26 2012 Study Request Projects
27 Three studies are being requested in response to requests from the Nevada Energy Assistance Corporation - a SSPG stakeholder. The studies requested are as follows: 1. A new 345/230 kv 1000 MW tie line from Northern Nevada to Northern California. This study is similar to last year s SSPG request but the resource mix and topology for this study differs from the 2011 request. 2. A new 500 kv tie line for MW delivered from Northern Nevada into Southern California via a new line paralleling the existing Pacific DC line. 3. A new 345 kv tie line for 600 MW delivered from Northern Nevada into Southern California via a new line to the IPP DC line in Utah. 27
28 High capacity factor of N. NV Geothermal energy No need for following resources Short distance from California Potential expedited in-service date The SSPG expects these projects will be highly competitive with other projects included in the TEPPC 2010 Study Report and study programs. Expected Completion by TEPPC Q4 2013

39 Requires transmission planning at the regional level to consider and evaluate possible transmission alternatives and produce a regional plan Requires the cost of transmission solutions chosen to meet regional transmission needs to be allocated fairly to beneficiaries. 39
40 Public utility transmission providers are required to participate in a regional transmission planning process that satisfies Order No. 890 principles and produces a regional transmission plan. Local and regional transmission planning processes must consider transmission needs driven by public policy requirements established by state or federal laws or regulations. Public utility transmission providers in each pair of neighboring transmission planning regions must coordinate to determine if more efficient or cost effective solutions are available. 40
41 Each transmission planning region must produce a regional transmission plan reflecting solutions that meet the region s needs more efficiently or cost effectively. Stakeholders must have an opportunity to participate in identifying and evaluating potential solutions to regional needs. 41
42 Regional transmission planning process must have a regional cost allocation method for a new transmission facility selected in the regional transmission plan for purposes of cost allocation. Cost allocation method must satisfy six cost allocation principles. Neighboring transmission planning regions must have a common interregional cost allocation method for a new interregional transmission facility that the regions select. Cost allocation method must satisfy six similar interregional cost allocation principles. 42
43 Participant funding of new transmission facilities is permitted, but is not allowed as the regional or interregional cost allocation method. 43
44 Cost allocation method must meet six principles (PP ) : Costs allocated roughly commensurate with benefits No involuntary cost allocation to non-beneficiaries If benefit-cost ratio is used, must not be so high to exclude facilities with significant net benefits (can t exceed unless FERC approves higher ratio) Costs allocated solely within region or regions unless those outside voluntarily assume costs Method and data requirements must be transparent Different method may be chosen for different types of facilities ( e.g., reliability, congestion relief, public policy) 44
45 Bottoms up-top down process. The bottoms-up incorporates a roll-up of local TO plan (local projects) and a WestConnect reliability assessment of TO plans. The bottoms-up would be in combination with a top-down approach which utilizes the WECC TEPPC scenario analysis and incorporating a WestConnect verification and project-by-project analysis based on the WECC Board approved TEPPC results to identify regional efficient and cost effective solutions. 45
46 Calculation of reliability benefits will be based on required compliance with NERC TPL transmission planning standards. If a system is compliant with NERC TPL standards during the 10 year planning horizon they will not be allocated costs for reliability improvements. Individual TOs have the ultimate responsibility to ensure the reliability of their systems. Local plans submitted by each TO should be compliant with NERC TPL standards. Therefore, the local TO will have the ability to approve or deny changes to local reliability projects. If a TO agrees to replace a local project with a regional project that is more efficient and cost effective calculation of benefits and allocation of costs will be based on the cost of alternatives to comply with the standards. 46
47 Calculation of Economic Benefits will be based on regional production cost savings. Hurdle rate should be calculated to ensure that, on a bilateral basis, the transactions modeled are likely to occur (including transmission rates, losses, and an adequate margin). Production cost analysis will need to calculate benefits for each company. WestConnect will establish a B/C ratio of 1.25 for a project to be considered economically-justified and receive cost allocation. Cost of economic projects will be allocated based on the benefits that each Company receives. 47
48 Public Policy Requirements will be included in the evaluation of reliability and economic projects, if applicable. Legislated Public Policy Requirements shall be included in the system models used for the transmission system studies. The impact of potential future public policy requirements may be evaluated through scenario analysis. The costs of projects required to satisfy the public policy requirements shall be allocated to the entities that will access the resources enabled by the project in order to meet their public policy requirements 48
49 In developing the most efficient plan for the region, it is possible for the plan to jointly consider different types of benefits when approving projects for inclusion in the regional plan. A transmission system addition may result in multiply categories of benefits; Reliability & Economic Benefits, Reliability & Public Policy Benefits, Economic & Public Policy Benefits or Reliability, Economic & Public Policy Benefits. Under the WestConnect cost allocation procedure all categories of benefits shall be considered. The total project benefit shall be the sum of the benefits from each benefit category. 49
