Rocky Mountain Power
1 Q. Have you previously testified in regulatory proceedings?
2 A. Yes . I have previously filed testimony on behalf of the
3 Company in regulatory proceedings in Oregon.
4 II . PURPOSE OF TESTIMONY
5 Q. What is the purpose of your testimony in this case?
6 A. I provide a general description of the Rock Creek I Wind
7 Project ("Rock Creek I") that the company is requesting
8 rate recovery of in this proceeding, an update on
9 development and construction of the project, and discuss
10 general project costs .
11 Q. Why did the Company pursue Rock Creek I?
12 A. As further described in the testimony of Company witness
13 Thomas R. Burns, the Company' s 2021 Integrated Resource
14 Plan ("IRP") preferred portfolio and 2021 IRP Update
15 both identified a resource need based on a near-term
16 capacity deficit. The Company conducted the 2020 All-
17 Source Request for Proposal ("2020AS RFP") to identify
18 cost-effective resources to fill this need. Bids were
19 received from third parties for resources in the form of
20 build-transfer agreements ("BTAs") , power purchase
21 agreements, and tolling agreements . Rock Creek I was bid
22 by a third-party developer ("Invenergy") as a BTA, and
23 this bid was identified among the most economical assets
24 to meet the Company' s identified resource need.
Wagner, Di 2

1 III . GENERAL DESCRIPTION
2 Q. Please describe the Rock Creek I project.
3 A. Invenergy developed and is constructing two separate
4 facilities—the 190 MW Rock Creek I and 400 MW Rock
5 Creek II facilities . Both resources were selected in the
6 2020AS RFP. The Company will also procure the Rock
7 Creek II facility from Invenergy, however that facility
8 is planned to reach commercial operation in 2025, beyond
9 the test period for this rate proceeding. My testimony
10 therefore is focused on Rock Creek I .
11 The Rock Creek I project is located in Carbon and
12 Albany counties, Wyoming and will include (without
13 limitation) : wind turbine generators ("WTGs") with
14 associated foundations and base pads, electrical
15 collector systems, collector substations, access roads,
16 operations and maintenance buildings, fiber optical
17 and/or microwave communication equipment, supervisory
18 control and operating status data acquisition control
19 systems, main power transformers, meteorological
20 evaluation towers, and overhead transmission tie-lines
21 from the collector substation to the point of
22 interconnection. The point of interconnection will be at
23 the existing Foote Creek substation in Carbon County in
24 southeast Wyoming and will interconnect at 230-
25 kilovolts . The site plan for Rock Creek I and Rock Creek
