Factors Driving Urgent Need for Energy System Changes Customer Empowerment Choice, Control, Convenience Smart Appliances, Smart Charging, Smart Rates Centralized renewables Intermittent availability issues Increased volume threatens grid stability Distributed renewables (rooftop solar) No control, can t see it, no communication Power quality issues will increase Cross-cutting Issues: Cyber and Physical Security Network Communications Workforce Development Electric vehicles Current electric grid cannot manage potential volume Overall consumption may rise significantly 6 Job of managing grid getting more complex; need to leverage technology
Smart Meters: The benefits are NOW 7
Customer Tools Rate Choices Within the next year, small business and residential customers will be able to choose from a menu of new rates and will be provided with tools to help choose the rate that s best for them 8

Customer Tools - Outages We know customers are very concerned when outages occur Our outage map gives information on communities & number of customers affected; start time for the outage, estimated time of restoration (ETR) and cause Notifications are also provided when customers are out of power (along with the estimated time of restoration or ETR) and when power is back Updates are given if the original ETR is past and power has not been restored 10
Outage Management System (OMS) Distribution Management System (DMS) Real Time as-switched view of distribution system. Integrated with AMI to more quickly detect outages. Average of 10 minutes before first customer call and 25 minutes before customer calls would predict same outage location. Integrated with mobile dispatch system to dispatch work and track crew status. Aggregates display of overall Summary of outages in progress and historical trend of outage and restoration activity for the distribution operator. 11
Smart Meter Benefits Installation of 2.3M Smart Meters resulted in: More than 3.1 million miles NOT traveled by SDG&E trucks - more than 273,000 gallons of gasoline SAVED 2,425 metric tons of CO2 equivalent NOT emitted (13% reduction in SDG&E fleet emissions) Responding more quickly to customer outages Identifying overloaded transformers Customer Service Service is only a click away Handling move in and move out requests remotely Offering new smart Demand Response Programs and rates http://www.sdge.com/customer-service Disclaimer: These emissions reductions are estimates calculated based on standard assumptions and EPA emission factors.

How to build the VGI Rate Step 1: Start with the VGI Rate prior to the addition of the CAISO Day- Ahead Price. This rate includes the VGI Base Rate (Transmission, PPP, ND, CTC, RS, and the DWR-BC), the VGI Distribution Base Rate, and the VGI Commodity Base Rate. This results in a flat hourly rate. Step 2: Add the CAISO Day-Ahead Price. The CAISO Day-Ahead Price varies by hour. Step 3: The end result is a VGI Rate that reflects the hourly differences in the CAISO Day- Ahead Price.

September 6, 2013 100 degrees by 1000 and peaked at 107 degrees at 1320 Thunderstorms began to form between 1200 and 1300 Produced rainfall totals of 1.3 at Warners by 1400, with similar amounts along the desert slopes west of Borrego Gusty outflow winds from the thunderstorms began to reach the Borrego area at 1400. Peak gusts of 54-65 mph were measured between 1420 and 1430, though evidence supports that a microburst likely occurred near the center of the storm, producing gusts as high as 70 mph. ~ 167 lightning strikes occurred in the Borrego area 36
