G.E. to Double Investments in Renewables to $4B

With its purchase of a Canadian hydroelectric plant and investments in two wind farms, General Electric's Energy Financial Services has begun a plan to double its investments to $4 billion by 2010. G.E. will acquire, for $180 million, two 50 percent stakes in wind farms in Texas, the first in Sweetwater and the second in Roscoe. The two farms have a total output of 450 megawatts, upping G.E.'s total wind power portfolio to 1,900 megawatts worldwide.

A 196 MW hydroelectric plant being developed by Plutonic Power in British Columbia is the other purchase announced by G.E. The company is buying 49 percent of the 'run of the river' project, which does not involve damming, for U.S.$104 million.  G.E. Financial Services also sid it would become one of the first financial institutions to disclose the greenhouse gas emissions from its power plant equity investments. GE's annual ecomagination report reveals that greenhouse gas emissions from the plants equal about 10.94 million metric tons.

The report also says the company is working with the World Resources Institute and other organizations to develop a greenhouse gas accounting protocol to cover a wider range of financial instruments. "We are taking these steps because 'green is green' -- good for the environment and for business -- not only for GE's manufacturing but its financial services businesses," said Alex Urquhart, president and CEO of GE Energy Financial Services. "In keeping with GE's ecomagination program, we are growing consistently and aggressively while helping customers overcome environmental challenges."  

The renewable energy business is GEFS's fastest growing business area. The company said its worldwide investing in wind, solar, biomass and geothermal renewable energy. Those investments have grown from $630 million in 2004 to $2 billion today. Source: GreenBiz, 6/5/07.

Interstate Power & Light Purchasing Wind Energy from Multi-Investor Iowa Project

Alliant Energy subsidiary Interstate Power and Light Co., (IPL) announced it is partnering with developers of the Hardin-Hilltop Wind Project to purchase approximately 16 MW of capacity from the facility, which is located northwest of Jefferson, Iowa. The Hardin-Hilltop Wind Project, which became commercially operable in May, consists of eight investors. Seven of the investors are from Jefferson, including Wind Family Turbine, LLC. Edison Mission, a subsidiary of Southern Cal Edison, has also invested in the project. Each of the investors owns a single wind turbine, which has a capacity of more than 2 MW. In 2006, IPL reached an agreement to purchase the energy generated from the seven wind turbines. Given the size and ownership of the project, IPL is eligible to receive the Iowa small renewable tax credit.

IPL remains committed to expanding its renewable energy portfolio, the utility said. Earlier this year, IPL announced plans to construct an additional 100 MW of new wind generation in Guthrie and Audubon counties in Iowa as part of its long-term generation growth strategy. Upon completion of the project, tentatively scheduled to be commercially operable in late 2009, IPL will derive approximately 6 percent of its electricity generation through renewable energy resources, the utility said. Currently, IPL has approximately 260 MW of wind energy under contract in its portfolio. Our company is proud to partner with Wind Family Turbine, LLC, and the other investors in this project," said IPL President Tom Aller. "Tom Wind of Wind Family Turbine LLC has been instrumental in seeing this project through from start to finish, and our company commends him for his efforts. Mr. Wind is a leader and strong advocate for our state's renewable energy industry. This is also a great day for the community of Jefferson as this project is a shining example of how our state provides continuous opportunities to be a leader in renewable energy and further Iowa's economic development potential."

US Wind Power Market Drives Toward New Growth Plateau

With Texas, California, New York, Minnesota, Colorado and Washington at the forefront of wind project development, the U.S. wind power market is expected to reach a cumulative installed wind capacity of nearly 49,000 megawatts by 2015, according to a new study by Emerging Energy Research (EER) markets. Wind project development activity has quickly responded to the growing demand for renewable energy in the U.S., with EER estimating a total U.S. wind project pipeline in excess of 125 gigawatts of projects at various stages of development. With more than $65 billion forecasted to be invested in additional wind capacity between 2007 and 2015, the U.S. is projected to rank first in the world in cumulative installed wind capacity with approximately 19 percent of global wind market share by the end of 2015, according to EER's just-released study.

Greater certainty in the energy policy fundamentals has underpinned wind growth potential. The U.S. market has become a core demand hub for global wind players across the value chain, with both aggressive foreign wind development players as well as numerous global wind turbine vendors investing significant sums to secure a long-term market position.

The U.S. wind market is expected to reach record levels in both 2007 and 2008 with 7,650 megawatts of new wind projected over the two-year period. However, beginning in 2009, annual wind additions are expected to dip as the direct result of transmission bottlenecks. New transmission build-out post-2011 will help drive the market toward a new plateau of growth, with the market expected to reach as much as 5 gigawatts per year by 2015. By the end of 2015, several key states will have provided the greatest contributions to the overall wind portfolio, with Texas accounting for 23 percent of total megawatt growth, and California, Minnesota, New York, Colorado and Washington combined forecasted to account for approximately 30 percent of total market growth, according to EER.

Rapid consolidation over the past two years has quickly changed the composition of the U.S. market solidifying around a group of 10 to 15 big-name IPP players. Since 2005, industry consolidation in the wind market has reached an all-time high, with domestic power generation companies vying with aggressive foreign entrants for U.S. wind company acquisition opportunities. The next five years will continue to witness shifts in the competitive market environment as a second round of consolidation is expected as IPPs begin to acquire one another for scale, according to EER. U.S. market players can expect increasing erosion of market share as new European entrants such as Iberdrola and EDP challenge long-standing U.S. wind IPPs such as FPL.  At the same time, spurred by recent volatility in fossil fuel prices as well as by state RPS mandates, utility wind procurement has reached an all-time high, with several companies seeking to extract greater value by exploring wind project ownership and development. In addition to state RPS demand, many utilities such as Xcel Energy and MidAmerican are finding that wind provides a cost-saving hedge against natural gas fuel price volatility, offering a further incentive for the large-scale deployment of new wind plant.

As the US wind market has exploded since 2005, vendor competition in the wind industry has also intensified, with numerous foreign wind turbine manufacturers making significant investments to build order books with key U.S. customers and to establish a greater manufacturing presence. Turbine manufacturing investment has grown markedly in the past two years, with aggressive new entrants now vying with market veterans GE and Vestas for big-name contracts. Numerous turbine vendors have established manufacturing or turbine assembly facilities in the U.S. since 2005, increasing supply availability to developers but also putting pressure on each vendor to secure its component supply chain as vendor execution on existing contracts becomes crucial.  Investments in new transmission capacity will also play a central role in determining the timing and geographic focus of new wind opportunities, especially as existing grid infrastructure begins to become saturated in several key wind regions and states, according to EER.

Salt River Project: to Purchase 49 Megawatts of Geothermal Energy Clean, Renewable Energy Added to Resource Mix

Salt River Project has signed an agreement for the purchase of 49 megawatts of geothermal energy from a plant that will be built in southern California. The proposed geothermal generating station will be owned and operated by Hudson Ranch Power I, LLC, and will be constructed in the Imperial Valley near the Salton Sea. SRP has signed a 30-year agreement to purchase power beginning in March 2010 when the plant opens and will arrange transmission of the energy from the point of delivery to Arizona.

Geothermal energy is considered renewable energy because no fuel is consumed and the energy is from a naturally occurring source.  "We are continuing to pursue clean renewable energy sources to add to our resource mix," said Richard Hayslip, assistant general manager, SRP Environmental, Land and Risk Management. "Renewable energy is a key component of SRP's efforts to keep our air clean and reduce greenhouse gas emissions."  

Under SRP's Sustainable Portfolio goals, SRP must secure sustainable and renewable resources to meet 15 percent of its retail load by the year 2025. Currently SRP's sustainable portfolio, which consists of energy-conservation programs and renewable-energy sources, including solar, wind, landfill gas, geothermal and low-head hydro, is at 5 percent.

Hudson Ranch Power I, LLC is an affiliate of CHAR LLC. CHAR LLC, a renewable-energy development company jointly owned by Catalyst Renewables Corp. and Hannon Armstrong, will construct the plant. Catalyst Renewables Corp. was formed in 2001 with an objective to acquire and develop a portfolio of renewable-energy projects. Hannon Armstrong is a 25-year-old investment banking firm that is an active investor in renewable-energy and energy-efficiency assets.  SRP is the largest provider of electricity to the greater Phoenix area serving more than 920,000 electric customers.

Retail Electricity Rate Design Found to Have a Substantial Impact on the Economics of Commercial Solar Systems

Not all retail electricity rates are created equal for prospective solar photovoltaic (PV) customers, according to a report, The Impact of Retail Rate Structures on the Economics of Commercial Photovoltaic Systems in California released by Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory. The report analyzes factors that affect the ability of PV systems to reduce electricity bills using 20 different retail rate structures available to commercial customers in California.

"One of the surprising findings that emerged from the analysis is that the value of a commercial PV system in reducing retail electricity bills can vary by a factor of four within California," says Ryan Wiser of Berkeley Lab, a co-author of the report. The report uses data from 24 actual commercial PV installations in California to determine the impact of rate design on the customer-economics of PV. The authors chose to evaluate rates in California because of the large PV market and the diversity of retail rate structures offered in the State. Nonetheless, the report's findings have applicability outside of California. "Commercial PV owners often don't know what to expect in terms of bill savings when they install a PV system. Our approach was to get data from systems currently in the field and find out for ourselves," explains Andrew Mills of Berkeley Lab. The systematic and comprehensive nature of the report fills a gap in publicly available analysis of elements that affect the bill reduction value of commercial solar installations.  

In large part, uncertainty in the bill-reduction value of PV stems from the demand-based charges in many commercial customer rates. In order for a PV system to reduce the demand-based part of a utility bill, the PV system must produce power when building demand is the greatest. The report shows that PV systems can, in many cases, reduce demand charges, but the ability to do so is highly customer-specific and declines as PV system size grows relative to total customer load.

The report offers a variety of recommendations to both policy-makers and potential PV customers. "We found that customers with larger PV systems will almost always want to switch to an energy-focused retail rate to get the most value out of their solar investment," explains co-author Galen Barbose. "But," he adds, "policy-makers wishing to support solar should consider making energy-focused rates optional because customers with smaller PV systems will often find other rates more attractive."  The report also finds that eliminating net metering can significantly degrade the economics of commercial PV systems that serve a large percentage of building load, and offers a variety of other rate-design recommendations.

A PowerPoint presentation that summarizes some of the key findings of the work is available to download. For more information on the report, contact Ryan Wiser at 510-486-5474.

News from Washington

Can a National Renewable Portfolio Standard Increase Energy Security, Reduce Emissions and Lower Costs?

The Environmental and Energy Study Institute (EESI) recently hosted a discussion about national renewable electricity portfolio standards such as those that have been introduced in the Senate and are likely to be introduced in the House as part of the climate change legislative package Speaker Pelosi (D-CA) has called for this fall. Twenty-three states and the District of Columbia have RPSs, covering 40 percent of the nation's electrical load. A national RPS has passed the Senate in the last three Congresses, although it is not included in the recent Senate energy bill.

A recent analysis by the U.S.: Energy Information Administration (EIA) of a national RPS proposed by Senate Energy Committee Chair Bingaman (D-NM) requiring electric utilities to acquire 15 percent of their electricity from renewable energy sources by 2020, found net consumer cost to increase just 0.3 percent through 2030 compared to the reference case. In April, the National Commission on Energy Policy (NCEP), which in 2004 published recommendations including a national greenhouse gas "cap-and-trade" program, added a recommendation for a 15 percent RPS to its set of national energy policy recommendations. In June, "Renewing America," a study by the Network for New Energy Choices, found that a 20 percent by 2020 national RPS could reduce as much carbon dioxide as taking 71 million cars off the nation's roads and would decrease consumer energy bills by an average of 1.5 percent per year.

On February 8, Reps. Tom Udall (D-NM), Todd Platts (R-PA), Frank Pallone (D-NJ), and Mark Udall (D-CO) along with four others introduced bipartisan legislation (H.R. 969) to establish a federal RPS requiring electric utilities to acquire 20 percent of their electricity from wind, solar and other renewable energy sources by 2020. "As Congress addresses the many important energy issues facing our country, we must consider the benefits of renewable energy. Establishing a federal renewable portfolio standard will balance a wide range of interests," Rep. Tom Udall said. "Not only will it help us meet our growing demand for electricity, it will also reduce our exposure to fossil fuel price spikes and supply interruptions, increase economic development in the renewable energy industry, and improve our environment."

H.R. 969 now has 121 cosponsors. On June 28, Rep. DeGette (D-CO) introduced and withdrew a federal RPS amendment (based on H.R. 969) in the Committee on Energy and Commerce markup of Committee prints on energy policy legislation. This briefing is open to the public and no reservations are required. Please feel free to forward this notice. For more information, contact Fred Beck at 202-662-1892.

State Activities, Marketing & Market Research

Consumers Want Energy Independence, Still Say "Nimby"

A new study by RBC Capital Markets finds that almost all Americans say the country needs to be self-reliant in its energy production, but don't want traditional energy plants in their hometowns.

In the annual survey, nine out of 10 people said the U.S. needs to find ways to produce more of its own oil rather than rely so heavily on foreign sources and eight of ten said they were concerned about the country's energy self-sufficiency. Conflicting with that, 84 percent opposed the construction of an oil refinery in their hometown, 83 percent opposed the construction or re-commissioning of a nuclear power plant and three out of four opposed the construction of a liquefied natural gas facility in their city or town.

"We haven't built a new refinery in the U.S. in almost three decades," said RBC Capital Markets analyst Kurt Hallead. "Clearly the 'Not In My Backyard' phenomenon still prevails."

The survey also found that compared to a year ago, Americans are far more concerned about global warming and climate change, and are increasingly conscious of the harm carbon dioxide emissions are causing. The majority of those polled (68 percent) said they were in favor of carbon dioxide regulations, even if it meant higher energy costs, and 67 percent said they would also pay more for cleaner fuels than pay less for fuels that pollute. Still, only a third say they are spending more time learning about what they can do and two-thirds admit they need to do more.

"To me, it's a clarion call for more public education. It's the only way for policy makers to address a situation where everyone wants energy self-sufficiency but no new traditional energy plants," said Hallead.

Moreover, while the vast majority of Americans support government activities to increase energy conservation programs, develop alternative energy incentives, and reduce the nation's reliance on foreign oil, there is still resistance to policies or initiatives that intrude on Americans' lifestyles or pocketbooks.

While the survey also found that Americans' number one concern was the quality of life for the next generation, concern for gas prices took precedence over "quality of the air I breathe" and climate change -- in large part because three quarters of respondents said it would be impossible to live their life as it is today without owning a car. Another concern voiced by 78 percent of respondents is about the price of gas and if they could afford to drive. In fact, sixty-seven percent felt that Americans are too concerned with how energy prices affect their wallets and are losing sight of protecting the environment.

"This crystallizes the dilemma faced by policy makers: the public clearly wants action, but not action that overly affects their way of life," said Marc Harris, RBC Capital Markets' Director of U.S. Equity Research. "One of the issues is getting people to practice what they preach. However, it was heartening to see that almost 70 percent said they would consider a hybrid car in their next purchase and 58 percent of SUV owners said they will try and buy a hybrid next time."

On the issue of alternative energy, a resounding 87 percent said the U.S. government needs to act immediately to encourage and reinforce the development of alternative energy sources with subsidies and incentives. Six in ten people said they would sanction the construction of a solar plant in their hometown and 57 percent would endorse the construction of wind turbines in their hometowns.

Among the other highlights of the survey are:
74 percent of Americans said they would consider a candidate's stand on energy issues when voting in the 2008 presidential election, up from 49 percent who did so in 2004

• When asked, "Will the United States find a solution to its energy problems in your lifetime?" 57 percent said no. Even the survey's youngest respondents (18 to 24 years old) did not believe the nation would find a solution to its energy problems in their lifetimes, with close to half (48 percent) expressing disbelief
• Three-quarters said that companies who adopt and comply with environmentally friendly and energy efficient standards should receive a meaningful reduction in corporate taxes
• One-third of SUV drivers said the publicity surrounding energy consumption and climate change has caused them to second-guess the benefits of owning an SUV. Source: Climate Biz, 6/8/07.
