Why the West is Different 3  Transmission is being planned and built in the West  Load centers are close to renewables  Processes already underway to identify renewable energy zones and transmission corridors  New WAPA and BPA funding - $6.5 billion 2009 APPA National Conference

Western Successes 4  Approx. 4,000 miles of new transmission in the West since 2002  2,300 miles are 230kV and above  Does not include upgrades  Multiple major transmission additions planned  $30 - $50 billion for currently proposed projects  Broad stakeholder participation in planning  Transmission needs identified for conventional and renewable resource access 2009 APPA National Conference

Coordinated Transmission Planning 6  WECC’s Transmission Expansion Planning Policy Committee (TEPPC) is studying and planning for renewables as well as conventional resources  Broad stakeholder participation  23 Study Requests from 9 organizations  State Renewable Transmission Initiatives  WGA’s Western Renewable Energy Zone (WREZ) project  Phase I – Identify Renewable Energy Hubs (Complete)  Phase II – Identify needed transmission corridors in coordination with WECC 2009 APPA National Conference

What should not be done? 8  Don’t superimpose new planning bureaucracies  Don’t socialize costs  Don’t discriminate by fuel type 2009 APPA National Conference

What should be done? 9  Support existing comprehensive and inclusive planning  Include state and local interests in siting process  Provide additional federal backstop siting authority  Streamline federal permitting processes  Maximize use of corridors  Include joint ownership opportunities for public power  Recognize regional differences 2009 APPA National Conference
