TE: Two‐Way Subscription Retail Tariff

Structure for Automated Bilateral Transactions with Two‐Way Subscription Retail Tariff

Automated Bilateral Transactions

Customers/DER accept long‐term subscriptions with Distribution Operators and LSE’s for energy and distribution transport

Two‐way transport Tariff recovers more distribution costs when feeders are heavily loaded in either direction

Most energy transactions occur at retail/wholesale interface

Customer/DER buys/sells incremental power at spot price

Utility or ESP is “held harmless” by way of the forward model

The Evolving Role of DR in DSM

Over‐generation

Changing power flows

Consumer‐driven

Technologies

Transportation Electrification

Increasing Grid Complexity

• Demand-side programs can be helpful to right size the local grid infrastructure an optimize investment

• DSM programs and smart technologies can be important tools in reliably operating the local system and balancing load

• Load shifting DSM can be a valuable tool for addressing over-generation challenges

• The electrification of transportation could drive help with the state’s GHG goals.

• Dispatchable DSM can be a valuable tool to help reshape the system load shape

• DR EM&T can identify these resources!

How Does Central Hudson Benefit?• Instead of investment ROI, an incentive‐based model was implemented:

Estimated Cost of Traditional T&D Solutions – Actual Cost of DR Solution+ Actual Capacity Savings

= Program Financial Benefits

• Central Hudson shares program financial benefits with all customers:

70% of benefits go to rate payers by reducing future bill pressure

30% of benefits are provided to utility as incentive to achieve the program targets

Looking Ahead• How do we achieve more

than 35% participation in Fishkill?

• Deploying Agricultural Pump DCUs in 2017

• Deployment of Targeted AMI for Measurement & Verification

• Additional device offerings & BYOT
