1 RENEWABLE ENERGY PROCUREMENT OPTIONS IN MASSACHUSETTS Boston Green Tourism 1
2 Overview 1. Opportunities & challenges 2. Why renewables make sense in MA 3. Procurement Pathways 4. Limitations in MA 5. Next steps & Conclusions 2
3 Why Renewables Make Sense in MA: Falling Costs of Solar Pv Cost per Watt DC $14.00 FALLING PRICES Megawatts RAPID GROWTH $12.00 $10.00 $ % GROWTH IN 3 YEARS $ $4.00 $ % SINCE % SINCE $ Source: GTM, DOE, REN
4 Why Renewables Make Sense in MA: Falling Costs of Wind Source: U.S. Dept. of Energy 4
5 The Opportunity As a result, leading companies are making major investments in wind and solar power Solar PV installed on 90% of U.S. facilities; 165MW wind farm in Texas in late Agreed to buy more than 150 MW of wind and solar power, and to install 70 MW of solar arrays at CA facilities Amazon announced it will invest in a 150 MW wind farm to power its data centers in Indiana. GM plans to build a 34 MW wind farm to power manufacturing facilities in Mexico. Apple is investing $848 million in First Solar s California Flats solar PV project. Google signed long-term contracts for 43 MW of wind energy to help power its CA headquarters. 5
6 The Challenge Complexity can prevent institutions from realizing the benefits of renewable energy 6
7 Why Do Renewables Make Sense in MA? 1. High Energy Prices 2. Volatile Energy Prices Lawmaker investigating massive utility rate hikes My Fox Boston-Mar 27, 2015 Before the winter season, the state's largest electric companies, National Grid and Eversource, increased their rates 37- and 29- percent. 3. Falling Costs of Technology 4. Favorable Regulations Electric Customers Call For Action, Outraged Over Rate Hikes abc40-feb 23, 2015 Customers were told they'd see a 29 percent increase in their bill this... any noticeable changes, said Rhiannon D'Angelo fromeversource 5. Aggressive Incentives 7
8 Why Renewables Make Sense in MA: Market Growth Installed Solar PV in Mass Source: Mass. DOER annual capacity installed cumulative capacity 8
9 Why Renewables Make Sense in MA: Favorable Regulations Net Metering can allow generation to be credited at the full retail rate. Virtual net metering can allow this credit to be applied even to an offsite electric bill. 9
10 Net Metering Limitations in Massachusetts Massachusetts Net Metering Class Distinctions Class Number Class I Net Metering Facility Class II Net Metering Facility Class III Net Metering Facility Size of Facility Less than 60 kw 60 kw to 1 MW 1 MW to 2 MW 10
11 Net Metering Limitations in Massachusetts: SREC Factors = 100% = 80% = 90% = 70% & waitlist 11
12 What is a Renewable Energy Purchase?» What is the institution looking to claim? Buying green power Supporting/enabling the development of renewable energy» RECs only? Yes if claiming environmental benefits. Voluntary vs. compliance markets» Power supply contract» Hedge contract» Onsite but with REC sale» GHG emissions 12
13 Procurement Pathway 1: REC or SREC Purchase e - REC SREC $ 13
14 Procurement Pathway 2a: Direct Investment (Off-site) e - e - $ PPA $ 14
15 Procurement Pathway 2b: Direct Investment (On-site) e - e - $ e - 15
16 Procurement Pathway 3: Competitive Supply Contract e - $ e - 16
17 Procurement Pathway 4: Synthetic PPA e - $ $ e - $ $ 17
18 Conclusions & Next Steps» Determine the goal of the procurement.» Determine what staff resources and external expertise is needed to manage the project.» Determine the volume of kwhs to be purchased.» Identify appropriate stakeholders to involve, including in-house or external legal and accounting team.» Choose a procurement pathway. 18
