City of Fort Collins Wind Power Program March 24, 2004 John Phelan, PE Energy Services Engineer

City of Fort Collins ä City of 125,000 people at the foot of the Northern Rockies ä Home to Colorado State University ä Highly educated, environmentally aware population ä Fort Collins Utilities provides electricity, water, wastewater and stormwater services ä Fort Collins Utilities has provided wind energy options to customers since 1998

DistributionTransmissionEnergy Supply Fort Collins Utilities Platte River Power Authority Customers Fort Collins Utilities

Medicine Bow Wind Site Development ä Fort Collins Pilot Program launch ä Two 600 kW turbines on-line - April 1998

Medicine Bow Wind Site Development ä Site expansions äSix 660 kW turbines in 1999 äTwo 660 kW turbines in 2000 ä ä Total of 10 turbines with a capacity of 6 megawatts

Where is the voluntary wind program today? ä More than 900 residential subscribers ä More than 60 commercial subscribers ä Customers pay 2.5¢ per kWh premium ä 40+ million kWh generated & sold to date

2003 Electric Energy Supply Policy ä Objectives: Reduce the environmental impact of electricity generation through conservation, energy efficiency, load management and the increased use of renewable energy

2003 Electric Energy Supply Policy ä Specific goals and targets include: ä Reduce per capita electric consumption 10% by 2012 ä Reduce per capita peak electric demand 15% by 2012 ä Increase renewable energy fraction to 2% in 2004 and 15% by 2017

2002 Customer Survey Customers show strong support for conservation and renewables

Renewable Energy Policy Goals ä Reduce environmental impacts ä Promote development of renewable generation ä Diversify sources of regional generation ä Optimize investment in renewable energy

Renewable Energy Options ä Near term, renewables = wind ä Various options considered ä Develop new wind plant ä Add capacity to Medicine Bow ä Buy into other wind projects ä Renewable Energy Certificates (green tags) ä Regional transmission constraints, costs of transmission and grid integration

New Renewable Energy Product from PRPA ä PRPA has developed a new green energy product based on rebundling renewable energy certificates with traditional commodity energy

Renewable Energy Certificate

Equivalent Wind Energy Characteristics ä Lower cost, avoid charges for integration and transmission ä Promotes development of new wind capacity ä Flexible purchasing terms ä What is the VALUE of renewable energy?
