Risk-Constrained Least-Cost Planning Michael Schilmoeller Northwest Power and Conservation Council for the NARUC 119th Annual Convention November 12, 2007
Overview • Planning Principles • Selection of Resource Plans • Selection of Resource Plans 2 Planning Principles
Different Kind of Risk Modeling • Imperfect foresight and use of decision criteria for capacity additions • Adaptive plans that respond to futures • Primarily options to construction power plants or to take other action • May include policies for particular resources • “Scenario analysis on steroids” • 750 futures, strategic uncertainty • Frequency that corresponds to likelihood 3 Planning Principles
Council Use of Terms • Futures – circumstances over which the decision maker has no control that will affect the outcome of decisions • Plans – actions and policies over which the decision maker has control that will affect the outcome of decisions 4 Planning Principles
Sources of Uncertainty • Load requirements • Gas price • Hydrogeneration • Electricity price • Forced outage rates • Aluminum price • CO2 tax • Production tax credits • Green tag value (Renewable Energy Credit) 5 Planning Principles
