Costing
With TDV costing a kW saved
during a high-cost peak hour is
valued more highly than a kW
saved during an off-peak hour
With flat energy costing a kW
saved is valued the same for
every hour of the day

Building up the Electric TDVs
1. Start with the PX Commodity Costs
2. Add the marginal T&D delivery costs
3. Use flat adder to bring to rate levels
4. Add environmental externality of reduced air pollution

T&D Marginal Cost - Levels

Marginal costs will always be in flux.
Use the most recent values available.
• SCE PTRD Proposal
• PG&E 1999 GRC Phase II

Use full “ratemaking” marginal costs
• DSM marginal costs can be lower
– Timeframe of impacts
– Pervasiveness of impacts

The T&D Component:
T&D Cost - Shape

Concept
• T&D systems are built for peak loads
• Peak load is driven largely by weather
• Peak Capacity Allocation Factors (PCAFs) are
used to allocate the marginal costs to the high
load hours
– Used by PG&E and SCE
• Want price signals highest when load is highest
in an area. PCAFs reflect this.
– Allocate cost to hours in the peak period. The higher
the relative load, the higher the allocated cost.

The T&D Component: Results of
Load & Temperature Correlation




Peak period is all weekday hours with
temperatures within 15 degrees of the
highest observed temperature in the area
(weekday only).
This 15 degree span defines the hours that
could drive peak demand, and thus drive
the need for capacity expansion.
This definition is independent of climate
zone.
This definition is spot-on with PCAFs in the
summer

The T&D Component:
Hourly Costs


Hourly Cost is the T&D capacity cost (from the
utilities) times the temperature weight.
Temp weight is the total PCAF for each degree F,
divided by the number of hours that are at that
degree F.

Temph = temperature category for that hour. (nearest whole degree)
TotalPCAF[Temph] = total % of capacity cost allocated to that temp category
NumberofHours = # of hours that fall into that temp category in the year
CapacityCost = T&D marginal capacity cost in $/kW-yr

The T&D Component:
Winter PCAF Problems

Assigning costs to the winter (in summer
peaking areas) doubles the T&D costs
for the area
• Favors measures that save in summer and
winter --- bit issue?

Spreading actual costs over summer and
winter would undervalue summer
reductions

Environmental Adder:
Emissions




A realistic valuation of NOx emissions is on the order
of $3000-12,300/ton, centered on $7500-8000/ton..
A reasonable, albeit very tentative and highly
uncertain, range of values for CO2 emissions is about
$5-13/ton-CO2. Thus, the $9/ton-CO2 value used in
both the 1994 and 1998 CEC valuations appears to be
reasonable.
E3 concludes that a realistic valuation of
environmental externalities should be closer to the
CEC ER94 valuations, but perhaps at the lower end of
this range.
For common electric generation plants in California,
this level of externality valuation corresponds to a total
emission cost, or energy adder, of about $10/MWh.
