FUEL FROM THE SKY: SOLAR POWER’S POTENTIAL FOR WESTERN ENERGY SUPPLY needed—can play an important role in providing reliability. This is especially true when a large amount of regional capacity is derived from renewable energy sources. This issue will be the topic of the next section. Exhibit 3: Demand and Supply Balance in the West, Summer 2001 (1) NERC region 2001 summer assessment. (2) RDI Consulting estimate. (3) Regionally installed capacity and net imports. (4) Average weighted by regional peak demand. Transmission Wires Are Stretched Traditionally utilities provide generation, transmission, and distribution. In this vertical business model, utilities provide electricity services to customers by optimizing the entire generation and delivery system with the objective of providing power at the lowest cost. In many cases, it may be more economical to transmit generation from a cheap power source over a long distance than to build a new power plant close to the load. Such thinking, for example, was behind the construction of the transmission system bringing inexpensive hydroelectric generation from the Northwest and inexpensive coal-fired generation from the Four Corners region into California. The development of the transmission system was further shaped by the nature of the utility busi- ness. Early in the history of the industry, utilities were mainly concerned with meeting their own loads. The transmission network was generally laid out to connect neighboring utilities to the extent that it allowed for delivery of remote capacity owned by the receiving utility (for long-term power purchases and sales between utilities) or for emergency transfers. In the West, however, utilities perceived significant benefits that could be achieved through strong transmission inter- connections. Four massive ties exist between the Pacific Northwest and California, allowing power to flow south in the summer when loads peak in California and north in the winter when loads peak in the Northwest. Strong ties exist between California and the Southwest to accom- modate transfer of power from jointly owned power plants (California utilities are part owners) in the Southwest to California. However, significant transmission bottlenecks still exist across the West, which would limit the transactions desired in a liquid electricity commodity market or to accommodate large scale development of renewable energy resources, such as solar, from the Desert Southwest. These bottlenecks were identified in the August 2001 WGA report, Conceptual Plans for Electricity Region Peak Demand (MW) Available Supply (MW) (3) Reserve Margin Actual Target Surplus (MW) Northwest 29,637 (1) 41,415 40% 29% 3,183 CO and WY 9,782 (2) 11,154 14% 18% -389 California 52,805 (1) 54,361 3% 16% -6,893 Southwest 28,311 (1) 29,979 6% 16% -2,862 Prairie States 16,920 (2) 20,169 19% 17% 373 Texas 65,973 (1) 77,100 17% 16% 571 TOTAL/AVERAGE 203,428 234,178 15% (4) 18% (4) -6,016 8PDF Image | Solar Fuel From The Sky
