DS-PDWG Approval Items Jamie Austin PDWG Chair Western Electricity Coordinating Council
Approval Items • Phase 1 Proposed Edits • Phase 2 Supplemental Resources Overview Western Electricity Coordinating Council
Proposed edits were uncovered during the validation of the 2028 ADS PCM V1.0 • Phase 1 edits, pertain to fixes of corrupt data in V1.0 • Topology and generator definitions come from the power flow (PF). • Other data needed that allows the hourly dispatch for 8760 hours, referenced as “other data” in ADS documentation, has been and will continue to be in public domain. • This “proxy” data is developed by PDWG and replaces unattainable, sensitive and confidential data. • Examples of such data includes, but are not limited to, heat rate curves, plant ramp rates (up and down), startup costs, fuel prices, hourly shapes for loads and other energy data • The ADS continues to reflect the most recent version of the planning regions’ regional plans, and resources definition do mirror the definition of resources in the WECC 2028 HS1 power flow. Phase 1 Proposed Edits Western Electricity Coordinating Council
Approval Items Phase 1 Proposed Edits Western Electricity Coordinating Council
Pancake wheeling occurring on PDCI branch terminating in SCE/CAISO. • Was fixed in ADS Seed case, but misrepresented in 2028 ADS PCM V1.0. • All buses between Cap. Jack 500kV and Tracy 500kV buses should be assigned to BANC • Incorrectly mapped to CIPV and PACW in V1.0. • Ownership of Malin to Grizzly should be revisited. Transmission Ownership Fixes Western Electricity Coordinating Council
Motion “It is moved that DS approves WECC staff change ownership in the PCM of bus 26097 Sylmar to SCE or BPA assign all buses between Cap. Jack 500kV and Tracy 500kV to BANC (currently, mapped to CIPV and PACW in ADS PCM V1.0 incorrectly)” Transmission Ownership Fixes Western Electricity Coordinating Council
The 2026CC target for Tier 1 energy into CA was 10,077.9 GWh while V1.0 allows an increase in Tier 1 energy of 26%. Motion “It is moved that DS approves WECC staff to change BPA area coefficient in nomogram to 1.0267091 so that the modeled Tier 1 energy matches target in the PCM.” NW Tier 1 Energy Western Electricity Coordinating Council
Shapes used for dispatch is different than commitment shape • 99 units use a commitment shape based on 2009 while dispatch shape is based on 2005 • 27 units use commitment shape but no shape for dispatch • 26 generating units totaling 1,376 MW • 1 load units totaling - 418 MW Motion “It is moved that DS approves WECC staff alignment of appropriate dispatch shapes in the PCM consistent with 2009 shapes for all mismatched commit and dispatch as approved by PDWG.” Mismatch Wind/Solar Shapes Western Electricity Coordinating Council

Proposed Interface corrections involving 13 interfaces, where 9 are BPA defined Flowgates (zCG interfaces) • 9 had missing branches and/or needed to be delete • 4 changed branch direction • The included spreadsheet includes documents all changes “Interface_Correction_from_CG_0627b.xlsx” Interface Definitions Western Electricity Coordinating Council
Motion “It is moved that DS approves updating the definition of interfaces in the PCM as described in a spreadsheet submitted by ColumbiaGrid. • P03East Side NW-BC • P05 West of Cascades-South • P08 Montana to Northwest • P73 North of John Day • z CG Net COB (NW AC Intertie) & OP • z CG COI Plus PDCI • z CG Paul-Allston & OP • z CG P04 West of Cascades-North & OP • z CG P73 North of John Day & OP” Interface Definitions Western Electricity Coordinating Council
UAMPS’ Antelope Nuclear plant constitutes 12 modular 50 MW units currently modeled as a single unit in V1.0. • Modeling results in consistent hourly dispatch at zero. • UAMPS takes pride on planning a flexible resource. • Plant maintenance and forced outages do not take down the entire plant, the modeling should be unit level, not consolidated into one. Antelope Nuclear Operation Western Electricity Coordinating Council
Motion “It is moved that DS approves updating Antelope Nuclear in the PCM to: • Must run • Model as twelve units in PCM with generation aggregated to one unit in PF • Outage duration: assume two events per year: 135 hours. Old value of 1 hour results in 298 outage events • With 50% dispatch range (HP1:= 50% & HP2:= 100%) • Fixed maintenance of 10 days every two years. This results in one unit being down for maintenance every other month. • Ramp rate 2 hours. Pmin to max (25%)” Antelope Nuclear Operation Motion Western Electricity Coordinating Council
A review of Hydro plants in the 2028 ADS PCM dataset revealed several projects had low modeling values – modify monthly coefficients to original values; just update of monthly variables, no change to PLF. Hydro Modeling Data Issue Western Electricity Coordinating Council
Motion “It is moved that DS approves implementing edits in the PCM submitted by Kevin Harris that updates monthly coefficients consistent with original values.” Hydro Modeling Data Issue Western Electricity Coordinating Council
Negative pricing (-$25) applied to California wind and solar causes hydro outside of California to cycle for California Solar. • Significant additions of utility scale solar and BTM PV changed the net load shape. • Some areas have net daily minimum load occurring mid-day (load – solar). • Hydro generation is responding to the price signals and shifting its operation peak to load - solar Negative Pricing Impacts on Hydro outside of CA Motion Western Electricity Coordinating Council
Motion “It is moved that DS approves implementing the following changes in the PCM: • Change default setting to NO-Spill on non-California hydro plants. • Add negative $50 dollars (-$50) to hydro dispatch cost on hydro outside of California. • Set Hydro dispatch from load only to load minus wind minus solar with wind at 0% and solar at 75% by region.” Negative Pricing Impacts on Hydro outside of CA Western Electricity Coordinating Council
Edward Hyatt and Thermalito have Pumped Storage (PS) operation capable units. Historic review of public data and preliminary DWR response indicates these units will operate as Hydro units only, not PS. • Remove three pumped storage units at Hyatt • EdwardCHyatt2, EdwardCHyatt4, and EdwardCHyatt6 • Change Thermalito_2, Thermalito_3, Thermalito_4 from PS to Hydro with Load Following flag checked Hyatt & Thermalito Hydro Units Western Electricity Coordinating Council
Motion “It is moved that DS approves modifying the pump storage modeling in the PCM at Hyatt and Thermalito as recommended.” Hyatt & Thermalito Hydro Units Motion Western Electricity Coordinating Council
ADS seed case was based on the 2026 CC v1.3 • Hydro assumption were incorporated in 2026 CC v2.0.

ADS PCM coal price is mainly based on CEC’s work using EIA public data. • Many coal units have plant-specific prices • Some units still use generic coal price • Use of annual capacity factor (CF) for coal is declining, due to increased penetration of renewable resources. • NTTG has identified a number of its coal units that are dispatching fictitiously at an alarmingly low CF in the 2028 ADS PCM V1.0, when compared to EIA 860 historic value. Adjusting Coal Price Western Electricity Coordinating Council
PDWG formed a focus group to research and formulate a recommendation by: • Validating the premise of “fixed element” associated with the Long-Term Coal Contract • Examining the higher coal CF impacts on resources in the portfolio • Examining the known coal retirements impacts on remaining coal plants • Retirements listed in L&R submittals not in WECC 2028 HS1 • The Focus Group findings: • “Long-Term Coal Contracts” relate to the infrastructure, which facilitates large capital investments and inflexibility with switching suppliers. • Increased CF from coal backs down Natural Gas CF. • Impacts are localized • CF on remaining coal plant increases as more coal retirements are realized. • PDWG voted unanimously to implement the discount of the CEC-PDWG approved coal prices to 75% of its initial value Adjusting Coal Price Western Electricity Coordinating Council
Motion “It is moved that DS approves applying a discount in the PCM to the CEC-PDWG approved coal prices to 75% of its initial value” Adjusting Coal Price Motion Western Electricity Coordinating Council
Approval Items Phase 2 Supplemental Resources Western Electricity Coordinating Council
ADD planned resources from the 2018 WECC L&R Data Submittals • Missing Planned Resources, consistent with utility IRPs • Resources to meet legislated RPS, consistent with utility IRPs, by State • Absent of IRPs in an attempt to meet 1 & 2, draw on L&R Future Resources • Work with Data Submitters and Regions to validate added resources and to map supplemental resources, to the bus. • PDWG and WECC staff to validate assumptions and findings by working with Regions, Data Submitters and Stakeholders. Criteria for Adding Supplemental Resources Western Electricity Coordinating Council
The WECC staff accounted for plant retirement in the 2018 L&R data submittals as compared to those retired in the ADS case see Table 1 below. Approximately 4, 646 MW net capacity retirements, mostly covering coal plants, were in exceedance retirements in the L&R report. Results were addressed at PDWG and circulated for confirmation by the regions. Coal Plant Retirements Western Electricity Coordinating Council

Plant Retirements H. Wilson Sundt ST1 and ST2 will retire 8/31/2019 “GeneratorListPCM” -- has “H Wilson Sundt 4 Coal” retirement date of 1/1/2030. V0.1 of that spreadsheet shows a retirement date of 12/31/2016 (actually stopped burning coal in 8/2015). Note, “H Wilson Sundt 4 Gas” has a commission date of 1/1/2017; the model would have both coal and gas as being on line at the same time, that’s impossible because it’s a single boiler and turbine that was dual fired, but the coal yard has been decommissioned.
