Since several AReM members continue to do business in sDG&E's service territory, you might be interested in it. The program is to be known as the Rolling Blackout Reduction Program (RBRP). SDG&E proposes to deploy customer-owned backup emergency generators during any ISO-declared Stage 3 event, to bring additional generation on-line to reduce the need to have rolling blackouts. Based on discussions with customers, SDG&E expects that approximately 75 to100 additional megawatts (MW) of additional power could be made available through this proposed program. These additional megawatts of demand reduction are critical to offset San Diego's anticipated share of ISO mandated statewide firm load reductions. SDG&E expects that the ISO will most likely require 1,000 MW of statewide reductions during Stage 3 firm load reduction events. SDG&E's share of this 1,000 MW is 7.4% or 74 MW. Therefore, 75 to 100 MW of additional backup generation can reasonably be expected to reduce the number and duration of rotating outages in San Diego. The RBRP is designed to run for a year, beginning on May 15, 2001 and pay capacity incentives each month for six months starting May 15, 2001 and continuing through November 15, 2001. Its availability for Summer 2002 will be determined after the upcoming summer. SDG&E proposes that this program be implemented only in San Diego county at this time. Participating customers must have a backup emergency generator that is capable of providing at least 15 percent of customers' annual maximum demand, but not less than 100 kW. Customers' participation in the program is entirely voluntary but would require a firm commitment and be supported by both a contract and other tariff obligations, terms, and conditions. As discussed more fully below, participating customers will earn incentive payments for their actual load reduction, and in addition, if a customer's load reduction is sufficiently great, the customer also will receive a circuit exemption. Once SDG&E receives notification from the ISO that a Stage 3 event and rolling outages have been declared, SDG&E would, in turn, notify participating customers to reduce demand through the use of their backup generation. Customers would be required to reduce demand as quickly as possible but no later than 15 minutes after the customer receives the notification. SDG&E would offset the amount of generation brought on line against the amount specified by the ISO the Stage 3 event for the load curtailment to achieve the necessary load drop. If SDG&E were required to curtail more load than the backup generation provides, or should load reduction be required faster than the generators could be started, then SDG&E would follow its normal curtailment plan to meet the full ISO requirement for load reduction, net of the load reduction on the system caused by the customer-owned backup generation. The backup generators will run until ISO no longer requires a firm load reduction and all firm load is back in service. SDG&E's proposed tariff imposes no program limits on how often SDG&E may call upon a customer to run its backup generator. These and other terms and conditions are specified in SDG&E's proposed tariff, which appears as Attachment B to this Petition. Do any AReM members want to support this proposal?
