Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As global energy systems electrify, long-term planning processes are evolving to allow flexible economic analysis and acknowledge rapid financial and operational transformation. State-level integrated resource planning (IRP) processes allow oversight of long-term electric utility resource planning. Yet, outdated rules, procedures, and practices may impede utilities in planning for a new energy future. Is the IRP process constrained by technical modeling decisions, when it ought to serve as a platform for stakeholders to shape optimal and just electricity system outcomes? This paper assesses the state of integrated resource planning to inform utility planners, commissioners, and their staffs, along with the array of advocates that participate in such proceedings. I employ a case study methodology to assess docket filings and other relevant materials in recent IRP proceedings for four major utilities in Michigan, Georgia, New Mexico, and North Carolina. Section 3 details modeling software selection and use for those four cases. Section 4 uses capacity value assumptions to illuminate the iterative process around establishing model input assumptions. Section 5 takes a broader view of nascent efforts to include equity and justice into IRP processes. Consistent commission oversight and robust stakeholder processes are integral to ensure that utilities' integrated resource plans reflect the pace of change in the U.S. energy sector. Policymakers can encourage advanced modeling methodologies (software, settings, and assumptions) through three channels: (1) written IRP rules, (2) commission procedure, and (3) intervention in utility processes. Furthermore, as equity and justice come to the forefront of utility planning, policymakers should consider intervenor compensation programs, energy justice assessments, and forms of public ownership to incorporate energy justice principles into the planning process.

This book was released on 1987 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Description of a computer model developed to account for electrical systemfactors, such as demand, time of use, customer profile and planning horizon, and their effects on system peak demand. The model tests the impact ofelectricity price changes on energy consumption and the demand forpower, by sector. Assuming no change in customer class load curves, themodel is thenused to derive a peak load forecast consistent with a long-term forecast ofcustomer class energy sales. The effects of potential load managementprograms and customer-owned electric power generation in specific sectors areassessed by modifying existing customer class load curves and electricitysales predictions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Electric Utility Resource Planning: Past, Present and Future covers the balance of renewable costs, energy storage, and flexible backstop mechanisms needed in electric utility resource planning. In addition, it covers the optimization of planning methodologies and market design. The book argues that net load, ramping and volatility concerns associated with renewables call into question the validity of almost a century of planning approaches. Finally, it suggests that accounting for flexibility helps optimize the efficiency of the entire fleet of assets, minimizing costs and CO2 generation simultaneously, concluding that a flexible, independent backstop mechanism is needed, regardless of renewables or storage. Case studies provide a mix of hypothetical "what if" scenarios and analyses of real-life utility portfolios drawn from international examples. - Examines how resource planners and policy specialists can plan to incorporate renewable generation technologies, thus uniting considerations of technology, methodology, business and policy - Focuses on the reality of long-term decision-making and planning processes in working utilities - Reviews novel approaches towards resource planning that yield lower costs and CO2 - Emphasizes the need for flexible backstop mechanisms to maintain reliability

This book was released on 2020-09-25 with total page 89 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Providing a reliable and resilient supply of electric power to communities across the United States has always posed a complex challenge. Utilities must support daily operations to serve a diverse array of customers across a heterogeneous landscape while simultaneously investing in infrastructure to meet future needs, all while juggling an enormous array of competing priorities influenced by costs, capabilities, environmental and social impacts, regulatory requirements, and consumer preferences. A rapid pace of change in technologies, policies and priorities, and consumer needs and behaviors has further compounded this challenge in recent years. The National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine convened a workshop on February 3, 2020 to explore strategies for incorporating new technologies, planning and operating strategies, business models, and architectures in the U.S. electric power system. Speakers and participants from industry, government, and academia discussed available models for long-term transmission and distribution planning, as well as the broader context of how these models are used and future opportunities and needs. This publication summarizes the presentations and discussions from the workshop.

Book excerpt: Integrated resource planning differs from traditional utility planning practices primarily in its increased attention to demand-side management (DSM) programs and its integration of supply- and demand-side resources into a combined resource portfolio. This report details the findings from an Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) survey of 24 electric utilities that have well-developed integrated planning processes. These utilities account for roughly one-third of total capacity, electricity generation, and DSM-program expenditures nationwide. The ORNL survey was designed to obtain descriptive data on a national sample of utilities and to test a number of hypothesized relationships between selected utility characteristics and the mix of resources selected for the integrated plan, with an emphasis on the use of DSM resources and the processes by which they are chosen. The survey solicited information on each utility's current and projected resource mix, operating environment, procedures used to screen potential DSM resources, techniques used to obtain public input and to integrate supply- and demand-side options into a unified plan, and procedures used in the final selection of resources for the plan.

Download or read book A Good Integrated Resource Plan written by and published by . This book was released on 1992 with total page 77 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Integrated resource planning helps utilities and state regulatory commissions consistently assess a broad range of demand and supply resources to meet customer energy-service needs cost-effectively. Key characteristics of this planning approach include: explicit consideration and fair treatment of a wide variety of demand and supply options, consideration of the environmental and other social costs of providing energy services, public participation in the development of the resource plan, and analysis of the uncertainties associated with different external factors and resource options. Integrated resource planning differs from traditional planning in the types and scope of resources considered, the owners of the resources, the organizations involved in resource planning, and the criteria for resource selection. This report presents suggestions to utilities on how to conduct such planning and what to include in their resource-planning reports. These suggestions are based on a review of about 50 resource plans as well as discussions with and presentations to regulators and utilities. The suggestions cover four broad topics; the technical competence with which the plan was developed; the adequacy, detail, and consistency (with the long-term plan) of the short-term action plan; the extent to which the interests of various stakeholders was considered, both in public participation in plan development and in the variety of resource plans developedand assessed; and the clarity and comprehensiveness of the utility's report on its plan. Technical competence includes energy and demand forecasts, assessment of supply and demand resources, resource integration, and treatment of uncertainty. Issues associated with forecasts include forecasting approaches; links between the forecasts of energy use and peak demands; and links between the forecasts and the effects of past, present, and future demand-side management programs.

This book was released on 1988 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Provides a brief discussion of world oil market developments since the early 1970s, identifying the fundamental characteristics and features of the market through to the end of this century. It also examines the history and current structure of world oil demand, analyzed in terms of demand for crude oil products in the various regions. A number of key factors and fundamental trends in crude oil consumption are identified, which can be expected to play an important role in future oil demand. In addition, the study provides an examination of the history and current structure of world crude oil supply, emphasizing the methodology employed in representing crude oil production, reserves additions and productive capacity development within the analytical framework. A series of sensitivity cases are presented together with the reference case crude oil market scenario generated by the integration of the demand- and supply-side analyses. Finally, the study's authors draw together the critical conclusions arising from the analysis.
