Green House Gas Reductions:The Newly Proposed

Massachusetts Clean EnergyStandard

Introduction

Michael ErnstProgram Chair & Moderator

Director, Regulatory AffairsTetra Tech

Background for Clean Energy Standard

• MA RPS Standard• MA Global Warming Solutions Act

• Greenhouse Gas Target: 80% cut by 2050• Clean Energy & Climate Plan for 2020

• NESCOE Coordinated Regional Procurement• Synapse Large-Scale Hydroelectric Energy Imports

Study for DOER (Dec. 2013)

• MA Clean Energy Resources Bill of 2014• 2400 MW Regional Procurement• Canadian Hydro Focus; Renewable Carve-out?• Refiled for 2015

Background for Clean Energy Standard

• Natural Gas Supply Shortage for ElectricGeneration: $3 Billion for ISO-NE last winter

• New Natural Gas Pipeline Proposals:• Kinder Morgan – new pipeline• Algonquin expansion• Tennesee-Iroquois expansion

• DOER Synapse Low Gas Demand Study

• Cost-effective alternatives

• Federal Auction of Seabed South of Islands:• up to 5000 MW Offshore Wind – 1.29.15

Why EPA Greenhouse Gas Rules?

Our climate is changing with dangerous effects

• Average temperatures have risen since 1901• 7 of top 10 warmest years on record since 1998.• Climate and weather disasters in 2012 cost the

American economy more than $100 billion .

Nationwide, the EPA Clean Power Plan will helpcut carbon pollution from the power sector by30 percent from 2005 levels.

• Power plants are the largest source of carbonpollution in the U.S., accounting for roughlyone- third

of all domestic greenhouse gasemissions.• The proposal will also cut pollution that leads to

soot and smog by over 25 percent in 2030.

Why Greenhouse Gas Rules?Billions of dollars in public health & climate benefits

• Climate & health benefits worth $55-93 billion in 2030

• Reducing exposure to particle pollution and ozone in2030 will avoid a projected• 2,700 to 6,600 premature deaths• 140,000 to 150,000 asthma attacks in children

• 340 to 3,300 heart attacks• 2,700 to 2,800 hospital admissions• 470,000 to 490,000 missed school and work

• Shrinking electricity bills by roughly 8 percent in 2030

States Choose Own Compliance Plan

States will choose by June 1, 2016 (extensions to 2018)how to meet their goal through whatever measures

reflect their own circumstances and policy objectives:• demand-side energy efficiency programs• renewable energy standards• efficiency improvements at plants• co-firing or switching to natural gas• build new Natural Gas Combined-Cycle plants

• transmission efficiency improvements• energy storage technology• coal generation retirements• expanding renewables like wind and solar• new hydroelectric conversions and imports• expanding nuclear

• market-based trading programs• Smart Grid

States may develop a state-only plan or collaborate witheach other to develop plans on a multi-state basis

• Extension to June 1, 2017 for single states or toJune 1, 2018 for multi-state plans

Nation-Leading Emissions Reductions

GWSA GHG Reduction Trajectory

Background - Electricity Used in MA

Source: Estimate based on 2012 Massachusetts GHG Emissions Inventory. The calculation assumes that all electricity generated in Massachusettsis delivered to customers in Massachusetts (because Massachusetts imports electricity) and assigns MWh from exporting states and Canada toMassachusetts based on a formula that considers the balance between generation and load in each state.

Stakeholder Comments

• 125 attended meeting and 60 written comments were received.• Key themes included:

– Stringency: Many comments expressed support for the need totransition to 100% clean energy to address climate change.

– Clean Energy: Many comments supported limiting eligibility to RPS-

eligible renewable energy, or at least excluding certain technologies(nuclear and large hydro). Some stakeholders supported broadeligibility, including eligibility for existing nuclear generators andimported hydroelectricity.

– Applicability: Key issue is inclusion of municipal utilities; somestakeholders support broad applicability but some municipal utilitiesquestion MassDEP authority to require compliance with CES.

• Comments are posted on line and discussed in Technical SupportDocument published with proposed regulation

CES Energy Transition: 2020 - 2050

• Standard includes RPS-eligible MWh and additional clean energy• Proposed 2020 standard of 45% is consistent with anticipated increases in imported Canadian

hydroelectricity• Proposal includes adjustment process to ensure progress toward 100% clean energy by 2050.• Graphic shows one possible scenario for illustrative purposes only

CES Proposal – Key Concepts

• Share of sales structure, with use of GIScertificates for compliance (like RPS, but with“CECs”).

• Point of regulation is electricity sales, includingmunicipal utilities.• Drives Innovation: Clean energy includes any

technology that meets 50%-below-natural gasemissions threshold: – All RPS-eligible renewable energy – New hydro and nuclear facilities are likely eligible – Carbon capture and sequestration eligible depending

on emissions.22

Compliance

• The proposed regulation would: – Require entities to demonstrate the use of clean energy for a

specified percent of retail electricity sales each year – Adjust the initial standard for municipal utilities to address the

fact that municipal utilities are not required to comply with RPS – Count RPS compliance toward CES compliance (so the CES

percentage would exceed the RPS percentage for each year) – Require the use of GIS certificates to demonstrate compliance

(like RPS)

– Allow banking, with CEC creation beginning in 2018 and 2019for use in complying with 2020 and 2021 standards – Allow compliance through alternative compliance payments

(ACPs):• Rate = 50% of RPS ACP rate

• Funds deposited in Clean Energy Expendable Trust for use toaddress climate mitigation and adaptation23

Eligible Generators

• The proposed regulation would: – Qualify clean energy generators based on a generic 50%-below-

natural-gas threshold – Require clean energy generators that are RPS-eligible to qualify

through DOER (not DEP) – Limit eligibility to generators that commenced operation after 2010 – For projects outside the ISO-NE control area ( enhance competition ):

• Include capacity commitment requirements identical to RPS• Include projects in adjacent control areas, and other control areas if

power is imported to ISO-NE or an adjacent control area through adedicated transmission line

• Require the use of transmission capacity that commenced operationafter 2010

– Require MassDEP to complete a study in 2016 of options forincluding existing (pre-2010) generators in the CES

Public Hearing Process

• Comments must be submitted by February 20 inaccordance with public hearing notice: – Email to climate.strategies@state.ma.us – Oral testimony at public hearings February 9-10 – US Mail

• All comments welcome; specific areas for comment areidentified in Technical Support Document (TSD) – Proposed regulation, TSD, hearing notice, and other documents

GHG Reductions

Hibbard

• Consumers save in electricity market due to reduced LMPs and lower demand, but bear thecost of on-site renewable and EE installations/programs

• Fossil suppliers lose revenues due to reduced LMPs and lower demand, but new renewablesuppliers gain revenues and REC APS payments

• Construction and installation expenditures provide positive local economic impacts
