NATIONAL GRID Winter Peak Demand Reduction Scheme (WPDRS) Michael Walsh ESB National Grid Sustainable Energy Ireland – LIEN Workshop Kilkenny, 22 nd July 2004
NATIONAL GRID Presentation Overview Winter Demand Reduction Incentives How does WPDRS work? Results from 2003/04 Product Development Next Steps Information
NATIONAL GRID Winter Demand Reduction Incentives An incentive to reduce load at peak System security Previously most Customers participated in WDRI Many large Customers moved to Independent Suppliers WPMP introduced, but not successful By 2003/03 no real incentive available to independently supplied Customers…and it showed
NATIONAL GRID 1999 – 2000 Effect on Peak
NATIONAL GRID 1999 – – 2001 Effect on Peak
NATIONAL GRID 1999 – – – 2002 Effect on Peak
NATIONAL GRID 1999 – – – – 2003 Effect on Peak
NATIONAL GRID 1999 – – – – 2003 Effect on Peak No noticeable effect on Peak in 2002/03!
NATIONAL GRID Introduction of WPDRS ESBNG introduced WPDRS in 2003/04 Ensured all Customers had access to incentive Open to: –Customers in the Eligible Market –Supplied by Independent Supplier –Appropriate metering etc. also required
NATIONAL GRID How does WPDRS work? Reliable load reductions and reduced energy consumption rewarded –Rebate charged if Customer is unreliable Customers reduce consumption or bring on generation to replace demand from system Incentives offered for Customers with generators who can export load Suppliers receive administration fee
NATIONAL GRID Payment Structure - summary ENERGY RELIABILITY €50/MWh Paid for reduced energy consumption Can vary day to day €160/MW Paid for remaining below committed quantity Set for the month Rebate mechanism for breach (€3200/MW) Total Available Payment: €210/MW/h = 21c / unit
NATIONAL GRID Payment examples – indicative (assuming 100% reliability) Company A Company B Company C Baseline Demand (MW) Committed Level (MW) Committed Quantity (MW) Daily Reliability Payment€96.00€320.00€3, Expected Energy Consumption (Units) Actual Energy Consumption Reduced Energy Consumption Daily Energy Payment Total Daily Payment€126.00€420.00€5, Total Winter Payment€10,332.00€34,440.00€413,280.00

NATIONAL GRID WPDRS Development Results published Consultation Process May – June 2004 Responses received from Suppliers, Customers and others Changes to Scheme proposed
NATIONAL GRID Proposed Changes – Not finalised CHANGES HAVE NOT BEEN CONFIRMED Key Change: Protect Energy Payment from Rebates (see example below) Still require a minimum level of performance Other Changes: Extend Scheme into March PES Customers will be allowed to participate More Information Optimal Committed Level to be calculated Spreadsheet examples to be published
