3 Making Clean Local Energy Accessible Now 3 Clean Coalition Vision = Clean Local Energy

4 Making Clean Local Energy Accessible Now 4 Clean Coalition Overarching Objectives From 2020 onward, at least 50% of all new electricity generation in the United States will be from local sources. Locally generated electricity does not travel over high voltage transmission lines to get from the location it is generated to the area it is consumed. From 2020 onward, at least 80% of all new electricity generation in the United States will be from renewable sources. By 2020, policies and programs are well established for ensuring successful fulfillment of the other two objectives. Policies reflect the full value of local renewable energy. Programs prove the superiority of local energy systems in terms of economics, environment, and resilience.

6 Making Clean Local Energy Accessible Now 6 Vision drives Demos, Certs, Standards & Codes

7 Making Clean Local Energy Accessible Now 7 Buildings of 2030 Must Fit with Cities of Future

8 Making Clean Local Energy Accessible Now 8 Expect EV Chargers Everywhere EVs provide the CLEAN Bridge between Energy, Buildings, Cities and Transportation

9 Making Clean Local Energy Accessible Now 9 Plan for Renewables Everywhere within D-grid Distribution Grid Transmission Grid Project Size Wholesale DG Serves Local Loads Behind the Meter

10 Making Clean Local Energy Accessible Now 10 WDG is Key Market Segment with Superior Value The most cost-effective solar is large WDG, not central station due to significant hidden T&D costs Distribution GridT-Grid PV Project size and type 100kW roof 500kW roof 1 MW roof 1 MW ground 5 MW ground 50 MW ground Required PPA Rate 16¢15¢13¢9-11¢8-10¢7-9¢ T&D costs0¢ 2-4¢ Ratepayer cost per kWh 16¢15¢13¢9-11¢8-10¢9-13¢ Sources: CAISO, CEC, and Clean Coalition, Nov2012; see full original analysis from Jul2011 at www.clean-coalition.org/studieswww.clean-coalition.org/studies Total Ratepayer Cost of Solar

11 Making Clean Local Energy Accessible Now 11 WDG Delivers Scale & Cost-Effectiveness Fast Solar Markets: Germany vs California (RPS + CSI + other) Germany has deployed 12 times more solar than California in the last decade despite California’s 70% better solar resource!!! Sources: CPUC, CEC, SEIA and German equivalents. Cumulative MW

12 Making Clean Local Energy Accessible Now 12 German Solar Pricing Translates to 5 cents/kWh Project SizeEuros/kWhUSD/kWh California Effective Rate $/kWh Under 10 kW0.1450.19030.0762 10 kW to 40 kW0.1380.18050.0722 40.1 kW to 1 MW0.1230.1610.0644 1.1 MW to 10 MW0.1010.13170.0527 Conversion rate for Euros to Dollars is €1:$1.309 California’s effective rate is reduced 40% due to tax incentives and then an additional 33% due to the superior solar resource Source: http://www.wind-works.org/cms/index.php?id=92, 10 September 2013 Replicating German scale and efficiencies would yield rooftop solar at only between 5 and 7 cents/kWh to California ratepayers

13 Making Clean Local Energy Accessible Now 13 German Solar Capacity is Small WDG (Rooftops) Source: Paul Gipe, March 2011 Germany’s solar deployments are almost entirely sub-2 MW projects on built- environments and interconnected to the distribution grid (not behind-the-meter) 22.5% 26% 23.25% 9.25% 19%

14 Making Clean Local Energy Accessible Now 14 US has Far Better Solar Resource than Germany

15 Making Clean Local Energy Accessible Now 15 Deployment Volume Drives Learning Curves Si learning curve Solar pricing is reduced by 20% for every doubling of deployed volume New technology learning curve Efficiency innovation

16 Making Clean Local Energy Accessible Now 16 DG+IG Initiative = Proving Feasibility of High DG Work with five utilities across the US to deploy a DG+IG demonstration project at each by yearend-2015 Prove viability of Distributed Generation (DG) providing at least 25% of total electric energy consumed within a single substation grid area Integrate Intelligent Grid (IG) solutions to ensure that grid reliability is maintained or improved from original level IG solutions include diversity and Energy Storage for sure, and potentially, advanced inverters, forecasting & curtailment, and/or Demand Response

17 Making Clean Local Energy Accessible Now 17 Benefits of DG+IG Power Quality, Reliability & Resilience benefits Increased customer satisfaction Improved equipment longevity Sustained vital services in otherwise complete blackout scenarios Avoided transmission & central generation vulnerabilities Economic benefits Significant private-sector investment Substantial local job creation Fixed electricity prices for 20+ years Localized energy spending Avoided inefficiencies of central generation & transmission Environmental benefits Avoiding dirty power generation, including nasty peaker plants that are often sited in underserved communities Utilizing built-environments and disturbed lands for generation projects Preserving pristine environments from transmission lines and other infrastructure

18 Making Clean Local Energy Accessible Now 18 Hunters Point = DG+IG Showcase BVHP has a long history of environmental degradation. Houses one third of San Francisco’s hazardous waste sites. Was downwind from California's dirtiest peaker power plant until community activism forced its closure in 2010. 20% of BVHP children suffer from asthma, and other chronic illnesses, 4x CA average BVHP has one of the highest poverty rates in San Francisco, with 30% of families earning less that $10,000 per year, and a median household income of $29,640 annually, as compared to $65,000 for white San Franciscans and a $55,221 average citywide. An overwhelming 72% of the African Americans in BVHP have incomes below the federal poverty level. Sources: Hunters Point Family and Grid Alternatives.
