Renewable energy in West Virginia October 14, 2008

W.Va. Renewable energy: trillion BTU 14.5 TBtu from hydro 1.5 TBtu from wind 4.1 TBtu from direct consumption of wood and biomass: residential, commercial, industrial

Energy Information Administration Electric power industry generation, ,815,804 megawatt hours Coal: 97.5% Petroleum: 0.2% Natural gas: 0.5% Hydroelectric: 1.7% Wind: 0.2%

Energy Information Administration Total: 32,312,000 megawatt hours=34%

PJM Environmental Information Services, Inc. (PJM EIS) owns and administers the GATS. Provides environmental and emissions attributes reporting and tracking services to its subscribers in support of renewable portfolio standards and other information disclosure requirements. GATS tracks generation attributes and the ownership of the attributes as they are traded or used to meet government standards. Generation Attribute Tracking System (GATS)

Water, wood, wind, waste coal, tire-derived fuels N.J., Md., Pa., D.C mw W.Va. plants in GATS

Total W.Va. capacity: 16,607mw W.Va. uses 1/3 in-state: ~5,000 mw W.Va. capacity in other states’ RPS: 991.5mw=18 percent of W.Va. energy needs W.Va. renewable energy

Energy Information Administration W.Va. renewable energy opportunities Biomass: Electric generation, pellet fuel, CTL, cellulosic ethanol Landfill gas: EPA has identified 10 possible sites – no more than 25mw of total generation Wind: 3,780 MW of potential commercial wind resources on private lands Hydroelectric Solar Poultry litter: 160,000 tons per year – burning for electric generation would avoid water contamination Coal fines and waste: Potential to produce 4.2 million MWH. Three plants in operation
