Dated this 21st day of May, 2010. JoAnne M. Currie, City Clerk DRAFT June 2, 2010 AUTHORIZE ADOPTION OF RESOLUTION ESTABLISHING THE CITY'S REVISED ENERGY EFFICIENCY AND DEMAND PROGRAM TARGETS AND RESCIND RESOLUTION 2007-32 DATED SEPTEMBER 19, 2007. (EUD) Background: The City of Ukiah Electric Utility Department is a publicly-owned electric utility that provides reliable electric service to its customers from an energy resource portfolio predominantly containing renewable green electric resources. On September 29, 2006 California Assembly Bill 2021 ("AB2021"), Section 25310 of the Public Resources Code, was signed into law. AB2021 required that on or before June 1, 2007, and every three years thereafter, POUs are to identify all potentially achievable cost effective electricity efficiency savings and establish annual targets for energy efficiency savings and demand reduction for the next 10 year period, and to report those targets to the California Energy Commission ("CEC"). On September 19, 2007 the City's current energy efficiency program targets were established as outlined in City Council Resolution 2007-32 as follows: Energy Savings Potential (MWh) = 1,979 Demand Reduction Potential (kW) = 195 DISCUSSION: Northern California Power Agency ("NCPA"), a joint powers agency and the Southern California Public Power Authority ("SCPPA") retained Summit Blue Consulting, LLC to develop a computer model and conduct analytical work to develop energy efficiency targets for member utilities. The individual targets adopted by each utility member will be collected by NCPA and SCPPA and then submitted to the CEC. The model, called the California Publicly Owned Utility Energy Efficiency Resource Assessment Model CalEERAM"), is based on the integration of demand side management measure impacts and costs, utility Continued on Page 2 Recommended Action(s): Adoption of Resolution establishing the City's revised Energy and Efficiency Demand Program targets and rescind Resolution 2007-03 dated September 19, 2007. (EUD) Alternative Council Option(s): Adopt the higher Summit Blue recommended program targets and risk not meeting our goals. Citizens advised: N/A Requested by: Prepared by: Mel Grandi, Electric Utility Director Coordinated with: Jane Chambers, City Manager Attachments: Resolution Energy Efficiency Program Targets Approved: Jane Chambers, City Manager Subject: Energy and Efficiency Meeting Date: 5/25/10 Page 2 of 2 customer characteristics, utility load forecasts, utility avoided costs, and rate schedules. It is also directly linked to the current California Energy Commission report tool, E3/EE, an energy efficiency spreadsheet so as to capture the most recent deemed energy savings, measure costs, and avoided cost estimates. The CalEERAM model for the City produced the following cumulative targets by 2020: • Energy Savings Potential (MWh) = 7,024 • Demand Reduction Potential (kW) = 1,908 This represents an increase of 355% compared to the previous 10 year energy savings targets. A summary of the technical, economic and market potential by customer class is attached. The market potential goals represent the feasible energy efficiency savings that Summit Blue's analysis determined can be achieved by the City. The City has the flexibility to accept the energy savings targets recommended by Summit Blue, or to modify them either up or down. Staff recommends that the City adopts energy saving targets that represent approximately twice the previous 10 year energy savings targets. While this is less than the targets recommended by Summit Blue, Staff is recommending that we set reasonable, achievable targets, and then strive to "over deliver" on the amount of energy savings achieved. At this point, it is unclear what level of CEC scrutiny and possible questioning will result by reducing the City's energy efficiency targets compared to Summit Blue's recommendations. However, Staff suggests that it is better to set reasonable, achievable targets and over-deliver, as opposed to adopting highly aggressive energy saving targets, and not achieving them. The energy saving targets that Staff is recommending Council approve are: • Energy Potential (MWh) - 4,045 • Demand Potential (kW) = 1.100 Unlike the previous targets established for 2008 - 2016, the Summit Blue model does not produce a static annual target over the period of 2011 2020. The model assesses the energy savings potential and demand reduction potential for each year, based on assumption of participation rates, utility load forecasts etc., producing a curve that shows overall increasing potential with each future year. The energy savings targets that Staff is recommending Im Council approval include a 36% increase over previous targets over the course of the first 3 years (2011 - 2013) of the 10 year period. The Council will have the opportunity to adopt new 10 year targets prior to 2014. Staff recommends the City Cotmell adopt these energy efficiency program targets as recommended by Staff and authorize NCPA to submit them to the CEC. FISCAL IMPACT: The existing state-mandated Public Benefit Program fund collected from the City's electric utility customers will provide the funds necessary to achieve these energy efficiency targets.

WHEREAS, California Assembly Bill 2021 (Section 25310 of the Public Resources Code) requires all publicly-owned utilities to identify all potentially achievable cost effective electricity efficiency savings and establish annual targets for energy efficiency savings and demand reduction for the next 10 year period; and WHEREAS, each publicly owned utility is required to adopt those targets by September 30tH 2007, and every three years thereafter, and to report adopted targets to the California Energy Commission; and WHEREAS, it is important that there is broad-based public power compliance with Assembly Bill 2021 on a statewide basis; and WHEREAS, Northern California Power Agency ("NCPA"), a joint powers agency and the Southern California Public Power Authority ("SCPPA") retained Summit Blue Consulting, LLC to develop a computer model and conduct analytical work to develop energy efficiency targets for member utilities. WHEREAS, the City utilized the modeling tool with local economic considerations and established an energy efficiency program target of 4,045 megawatt-hours of energy savings over ten years, with a yearly 250 megawatt-hours of energy savings during the first two years, and WHEREAS, the City utilized the modeling tool and established an energy efficiency program target of 1,100 kW of demand savings over ten years, equivalent to 110 kilowatts of average annual peak demand reduction, and 2007. WHEREAS, The City Council rescinds Resolution number 2007-32 dated September 19, NOW, THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, that the City Council of the City of Ukiah adopts the above electric energy efficiency program targets and rescinds Resolution 2007-32.
