9 Flexible Generation Resources Reciprocating Engines (RICE) Historically found in marine and industrial applications. Today, under a power generation application, there is real potential to help solve renewable integration issues Fast start and ramp times (Start in 2 minutes and at full load in 5 minutes) Small modular footprint (smart grid paradigm) and reliability spread across multiple units. Low gas pressure requirement and low water consumption Potential EIM participation value 8

10 Regional Energy Imbalance Markets CALISO EIM Mid West Mid Continent RTO Working to determine economic benefits of potential alternatives and weigh opportunities for market participation Evaluate operational benefits especially as they relate to renewable integration and system regulation Consider governance structure and implications for system reliability/resource control Transmission synergies and Renewable diversity 9

A levelized natural gas price of $3.77 per MMBtu is assumed for all applicable natural gas technologies. All solar resources reflect the investment tax credit changes associated with the December 2015 Consolidated Appropriations Act. Wind resources represent on shore technologies and assume all production tax credits based on the December 2015 Consolidated Appropriations Act. Analysis does not reflect potential impact of evolving regulations/rules promulgated pursuant to the EPA s Clean Power Plan. The LCOE reflects interconnected bus bar costs and excludes reliability related costs (i.e., system integration and backup capacity costs associated with renewables) and potential social and environmental externality costs. Energy efficiency notes (a) Estimates per National Action Plan for Energy Efficiency; (b) Costs based on Arizona total and program administrator cost of saved electricity for various initiatives in 2012 dollars.
