SPP: Demand Response and Advanced Metering in Arkansas. SPP Demand Response Catalysts. Regulatory. March 20, 2006 Order from FERC
E N D
Regulatory • March 20, 2006 Order from FERC • “SPP is directed to provide a report to the Commission six months from the date of market implementation on ways it can incorporate demand response into its imbalance market”
SPP Demand Response Initiatives • Technical Conference (January 2007) • EPRI • ISO/RTO Council: EAS • US Demand Response Coordinating Committee (Potential) • SPP Center of Excellence • Strategic Planning Committee • Demand Response Task Force • Planning
CO2 Reductions … Technical Potential* EIA Base Case 2007 * Achieving all targets is very aggressive, but potentially feasible.
Analytics Infrastructure Smart End-Use Devices Possible R&D Collaboratives Smart Infrastructure • Enable energy efficiency and demand response and other potential consumer/utility opportunities Energy Analytics • Independent and credible analysis to support innovative markets, rates and CO2 impact Smart End-Use Devices • Maximizing the potential for energy efficiency and demand response in residential/ commercial/industrial sector Three broad interconnected areas of possible RD&D presented for reaction and refinement by the workshop attendees

Planning Questions • What current flowgates are being mitigated by the 2006-2016 SPP Transmission Expansion Plan (STEP)? • How would Demand Side Management (DSM) affect the current reliability plan? • How would SPP handle Enhanced Regional Planning (ERP) in respect to the STEP?
Flowgates in SPP • SPP performed analysis on the 2006-2016 SPP STEP to determine how the top flowgates would be affected • Staff focused on the top 15 flowgates with the highest TLR curtailments • 7 of the top 15 flowgates are relieved by the 2006-2016 STEP
Top 15 Flowgates Relieved Not Relieved
New Top 15 Flowgates
Demand Side Management (DSM) • DSM manages the consumption of energy to optimize available generation resources • SPP very different geographically than areas in the northeast that have very dense high population areas • Staff to initially consider DSM option in top 3 population areas in SPP footprint • Oklahoma City • Kansas City • Tulsa
Enhanced Regional Planning (ERP) • SPP to potentially consider ERP as a solution to reliability problems identified in the STEP • Initially, staff to use engineering judgment to determine what areas would be appropriate for ERP • Staff would consider the benefit of a ~500MW resource for initial screens, then use the SPP ERP checklist to determine feasibility
