  7. Slide 7: PGE Transmission

    PGE Transmission • Most of PGE’s generating resources are external to PGE’s transmission system – PGE contracts for 3,393 MW of transmission capacity from BPA • In 2007 PGE added the Port Westward Plant – Integrated at PGE’s Trojan Substation • In 2009 PGE re-terminated the Beaver Plant to Trojan Su

  8. Slide 8: Regional Transmission Planning

    Regional Transmission Planning • Regional / Sub-regional Transmission Planning efforts – PGE participates in or monitors: • Transmission Expansion Planning Policy Subcommittee (TEPPC) • Northern Tier Transmission Group (NTTG) • Transmission Coordination Work Group (TCWG) • ColumbiaGrid (PGE monitors

  10. Slide 10: Cascade Crossing – Overview

    Cascade Crossing – Overview Project Description: • 500 kV line: – Coyote Springs to Boardman to vicinity of Warm Springs to southern end of PGE’s system – ~ 200 miles • Target capacity: – 1500 MW (single-circuit) – 2200 MW (double-circuit) – assumed and under study • Potential generation interconnec

  12. Slide 12: Cascade Crossing – Benefits

    Cascade Crossing – Benefits • Allows direct connection of existing and new PGE resources – Additional transmission is required to deliver new generating resources needed to meet load – Availability and cost of BPA transmission is unknown • Opportunity to integrate potential future resources near the

  14. Slide 14: Cascade Crossing Assumptions

    Cascade Crossing Assumptions • Evaluated independently as a transmission option – Portfolios tested with and without Cascade Crossing • Assumes BPA transmission capacity is released • Single Circuit option – $613 Million, 1500 MWs (per studies) • Double Circuit option – $823 Million, 2200 MWs (assum

  15. Slide 15: Cascade Crossing Assumptions

    Cascade Crossing Assumptions • Analysis compares cost of project against BPA transmission service for 5 Cases and 3 resource portfolios – BPA rates increase at 4% (nominal) through 2025 – then either 2.5% (Case 1), 3.2% (Cases 2-4) or 3.5% (Case 5) – 10% increase in 2015 – BPA cost includes $65.5 mi

  16. Slide 16: Cascade Crossing Assumptions - Cases

    Cascade Crossing Assumptions - Cases • Case 1 & 2 – Partner with Idaho Power on 17 mile section between Coyote and Boardman – Higher BPA growth rate in Case 2 (3.2 % vs. 2.5 %) after 2025 • Case 3 – Partner with Idaho (as above) and with 3rd party for Coyote Springs substation upgrade • Case 4 &5 –

  17. Slide 17: Cascade Crossing Assumptions - Portfolios

    Cascade Crossing Assumptions - Portfolios • Diversified Thermal with Green – Preferred portfolio – Includes Boardman, Coyote Springs, new CCCT and 323 MWs (single circuit) or 723 MWs (double circuit) of new wind (ramped in over 4-6 years) • Diversified Green – Includes Boardman, Coyote Springs, and

  19. Slide 19: IRP Transmission Actions

    IRP Transmission Actions • Request acknowledgement of Cascade Crossing – Double circuit (proposed) – Include in Action Plan, contingent on updated economic analysis, path rating and equity partnership – Economics improve if costs shared with Idaho Power, 3rd party and equity partnership – Single cir

  20. Slide 20: Issues to Consider

    Issues to Consider • Analysis compares Cascade Crossing to unknown BPA transmission rates and availability – West of McNary ATC made available from BPA’s new McNary - John Day 500 kV line may be insufficient to meet requests – Availability and timing of BPA option uncertain • EFSC looking to IRP for

  21. Slide 21: Other Strategic Factors

    Other Strategic Factors • Cascade Crossing improves reliability • Generation interconnection request for 500 MW of wind – If customer submits associated transmission service request then single circuit line may not be adequate to satisfy requests for service • Conductoring one line initially may req
