Maine Disclosure and Portfolio Requirements Workshop on Electric Imports and “Emission Leakage” In Support of the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative June 15, 2006 Faith Huntington Maine Public Utilities Commission

Resource Portfolio Requirement MPUC Chapter 311

Requirement 30% kWhs sold to Maine customers must come from “eligible” resources Applicable to all Maine retail suppliers Must be met with eligible GIS certificates (with limited exceptions)

Eligible Resources Small Power Production ( PURPA QF ) Efficient Cogeneration built before 1/1/97 Renewable Generation < 100 MW Fuel CellsGeothermal TidalHydro SolarBiomass WindMunicipal Solid Waste

Compliance Use ISO-NE GIS system to comply with Maine’s RPS requirement (with limited exceptions) Supplier must have sufficient quantity of certificates from “eligible” resources in its GIS account GIS has “Maine Eligible” as attribute

Verification Verify compliance in supplier’s annual report, including by GIS settled certificates reports MPUC can confirm through own access to GIS reports MPUC may audit

Uniform Information Disclosure MPUC Chapter 306

Label Purpose Consumer information Compare: - supplier portfolios - emissions profiles - among products, e.g. “green” vs standard offer - to regional average Consumers see the environmental attributes of their power supply.

Label Provides: Attributes associated with supplier’s load obligations over recent 12 month period Comparability – must conform visually to MPUC sample label

Label Content Fuel attributes of resource portfolio -- biomass, MSW, fossil fuel cogen, fuel cells, geothermal, hydro, solar, tidal, wind, nuclear, gas, oil,coal Emissions attributes of resource portfolio -- CO2, NOX, SO2 Must compare fuel mix and emissions to regional average

Product Offerings Separate label for each product offering Green products, for example Maine Green Power Connection :

Label Distribution Mailed quarterly to all residential and small commercial customers Available to all customers on request Sent with Terms of Service to residential and small commercial customers

Compliance and Verification Suppliers provide labels and evidence of validity with annual report GIS account reports MPUC may audit

Select Energy, 2004 Sample Annual Report Information Select Energy, 2004

Other Applications Reports to Maine Legislature Other analysis, summary statistics

Why GIS? Market perspective Liquidity Credibility kWh was generated no double counting Regulator perspective Simplifies attribute-to-load mapping no need to examine stacks of bilateral contracts Credibility kWh was generated kWh “owned” by supplier no double counting
