  1. National CHP Roadmap: Implementation Activities in the Midwest Ted Bronson Associate Director, Distributed Energy Gas Technology Institute Midwest Cogeneration Association Bi-Monthly Meeting November 28, 2001

  2. Overview • Overview of National CHP Roadmap • Role of Regional Initiatives in Advancing CHP and DER • History of MW CHP Initiative • MW CHP Initiative Current Actions • The Midwest CHP for Buildings Application Center • Regional Requests of National Effort • MWCGA’s Support of the National and Regional CHP Activities • Summary

  3. National CHP Roadmap • “CHP Challenge” issued by U.S. DOE and U.S. EPA in 1998 • Double CHP in U.S. from 46 GW to 92 GW by 2010 • Capitalize on Billions spent by DOE to develop equipment • Stakeholders invited to series of workshops locally and nationally (over 1000) • Roadmap issued March 2001: • Raising CHP Awareness • Eliminating Regulatory and Institutional Barriers • Develop markets and technologies • Implementation requires leveraging of several organizations across the country • MW CHP Initiative and Application Center established to implement Roadmap

  4. Role of Regional Initiatives • Bridge the Gap between National Policies and Regional Reality • Organize regional stakeholders into powerful coalitions • Interface with policy makers and legislatures • Provide Education and Outreach / Communications Strategy to key facilitating organizations • Architects and Engineers • Project Developers

  5. Midwest CHP Initiative • Established after two DOE workshops • November, 1999, Great Lakes CHP Roadmap • October, 2000 National Roadmap • Initial Game Plan • Mission Statement • Expanded membership • Consolidated list of Regional Actions from Roadmap workshops • Permitting, Interconnection, Education, Market Development, and Policy • Establish Baseline Mechanism • Train Membership • Identify Funding Sources • Meet Bi-Monthly: ACTION ORIENTED

  9. Midwest CHP Initiative • Mission: • Lead the Region in encouraging the use of and in implementation of CHP technologies; • Drive CHP roadmap actions items for the MW Region in support of DOE’s goal of doubling CHP use by 2010, and; • Provide a central point for coordination and communications among the various stakeholder organizations in the region (BCHP AC; RP MW,etc)

  10. Midwest CHP Initiative • Subcommitees and Action Plans for 5 elements of CHP market transformation • Policy • Permitting • Education and Outreach • Interconnection • Market Development • Focusing on Implementation in WI, IL, IN, MI – Expanding to Minnesota and Ohio

  11. Midwest CHP Initiative • Current Actions • Organizing 8 State Interconnection Workshop • State presentations – PUC working groups • Industry Experts (Galdo, DeBlasio, Ethridge) • Engaging State PUCs • Create new thinking / overcome myths • Policy Platform Development • Permitting Guideline • Baseline Study • Marketing Plan • Input to Illinois Energy Policy and Michigan Interconnection Proposals • Working closely with MW CHP Application Center

  12. Midwest CHP for Buildings Application Center • Mission:Develop Technology Application Knowledge and the Educational Infrastructure Necessary to: • Reduce Any Perceived Risks • Foster BCHP as a Viable Option • Technical and Financial • Energy and Environmental • Focus: • Education • Information • Project Assistance

  13. Midwest CHP for Buildings Application Center Partnership: • University of Illinois at ChicagoEnergy Resources Center --- UIC/ERC and • Gas Technology Institute --- GTI Sponsorship: • DOE Office of Power Technologies • Oak Ridge National Laboratory --- ORNL

  14. Midwest CHP for Buildings Application Center

  15. Midwest CHP for Buildings Application Center • Project Elements • Baseline Assessment / Characterization • Plan Development • Case Studies • Information Repository • Project Support – SWAT TEAMS • Provide Expert Assistance to “Close the Deal” • Provide Expert Assistance to “Provide Technical Solutions”

  16. Regional Requests of National Effort • Creation of a National CHP Guidebook • Generic Tariff Guidance • Interconnection Guideline elements • Define “reasonable and just standby charges and exit fees” • Examples of Best Practices Legislation (i.e. Texas, New York) • Easy access to educational presentations to Utility Commissions, A/Es, Developers and prospective end users • Model Letters to PUCs and other stakeholders • Centralized, coordinated communication strategy • Funding for Regional Activities • To Manage and Execute Regional Coalitions • Expansion and Continued Support of Application Centers

  17. MWCGA support of Regional and National CHP Efforts • Midwest CHP Initiative • Get involved – Bi-Monthly meetings and National Effort (US DOE, US EPA, USCHPA) • Support State PUC presentations • Identify specific examples of roadblocks • Support comments on State Programs • Support Education Activities to key groups • Support permitting guideline efforts • Support market development efforts • MW CHP Application Center • Identify candidates for Case Studies • Expand database of CHP applications • Support baseline study development

  18. Summary • Regional ‘Action Oriented’ Coalitions & ACs required to change DER market • Regulatory and Policy Changes • Coordinating Actions of Stakeholders to build power on regional levels • Education and Outreach to Regional firms to increase awareness • Midwest positioned well to expand market in next 2-3 years • MW CHP Initiative and Application Center will create policy infrastructure condusive to CHP • MW CGA members will need to carry torch to “Double CHP in Region”
