Avoided cost rates are the purchase price paid to QFs for purchases of QF capacity and energy. The release of a new natural gas price forecast by EIA triggered an updated calculation of avoided cost rates. UPDATED NATURAL GAS PRICE FORECAST One of the key input variables in the computation of avoided cost rates in the SAR methodology is a long-term natural gas price forecast.In accordance with the methodology approved in Order No.32697,the “reference case”natural gas price forecast for the Mountain Region’s Electric Power sector published in ETA’s Annual Energy Outlook serves as the basis for computing avoided cost rates.In Order No.32697,the Commission also found that the final release of Annual Energy Outlook automatically triggers a recalculation of the published avoided cost rates.In Order No.32802,the Commission clarified that an update should occur on June 1 or within 30 days of the fmal release of the Annual Energy Outlook,whichever is later. DECISION MEMORANDUM 1 The Annual Energy Outlook 2014 was released on May 7,2014.A copy of the relevant natural gas price forecast is attached. STAFF REVIEW Commission Staff has recomputed avoided cost rates for Idaho Power,Avista,and PacifiCorp,using EIA’s most recent natural gas price forecast.Staff provided Idaho Power, Avista,and PacifiCorp with worksheets on May 22,2014,for review and comment,showing the computation of the updated avoided cost rates.A copy of the rates computed by Staff for all three utilities is attached.Due to the lower natural gas price forecast,the new avoided cost rates for the year of 2014 have dropped approximately 4 to 10%from the previously published rates for the same year,depending on the generation type. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends that the attached avoided cost rates for Idaho Power,Avista,and PacifiCorp be approved with an effective date of June 1,2014. COMMISSION DECISION Presented for Commission approval are the updated published avoided cost rates for Idaho Power,Avista,and PacifiCorp,which have incorporated the natural gas price forecast published in the final release of EIA’s Annual Energy Outlook 2014.The calculation of the fuel cost adjustment to published avoided cost rates is arithmetic.Does the Commission wish to approve the changes in rates effective June 1,2014?
