COMMENTS OF THE
COMMISSION STAFF
The Staff of the Idaho Public Utilties Commission, by and through its Attorney of
Record, Weldon B. Stutzman, Deputy Attorney General, submits the following comments in
response to Order No. 30786 issued on April 23, 2009.
BACKGROUND
Since 1993, the PCA mechanism has permitted Idaho Power to establish PCA rates to
recover allowed variations from normal power supply costs. Base rates, established in a general
rate case, recover normal power supply costs. The main components of variable power supply
cost are fuel costs (coal and natural gas) and purchased power costs. These costs are offset with
off-system sales revenues. Idao Power Company's power supply costs var anualy based on
streamflow at hydro power generating facilties, the market price of power, and other factors.
STAFF COMMENTS 1 MAY 14,2009
The annual PCA surcharge or credit is combined with the Company's "base rates," and other
non-base rates, to produce a customer's overall energy rate.
On April 15, 2009, Idaho Power Company fied its anual power cost adjustment (PCA)
Application. In this PCA Application, Idaho Power calculates that its anual power costs have
increased above normal amounts. To recover the increased power costs, the Company estimates
that existing PCA rates must increase to recover an additional $93.8 milion. The proposed
increase averages 11.4% but impacts different customer classes differently. The lowest proposed
class increase is 3.8% and the largest proposed increase is 18.7% for a special contracts
customer.
THE PCA MECHANISM
The anual PCA mechanism is comprised of three major components. The first
component, projected or forecasted power cost, is computed using the results of the Company's
most recent Operating Plan (OP Plan). This method replaces the previous method that was based
on a forecast of Brownlee Reservoir inflow and a regression formula derived from rate case
power supply cost data. The Commission directed use of the new method for projecting power
costs in an effort to improve forecast accuracy. The old method resulted in forecasts that
differed substantially from actual results. Order No. 30715. In the new method, streamflow
remains a major factor used to project power costs. In addition to streamflow, the new method
includes updated projections for load, market price, resource availabilty and many other
varables. It also includes the costs of power supply transactions already made for the PCA year.
The new method of projecting power supply costs is expected to be significantly more accurate.
In general, in years of abundant snowpack and streamflow, the Company's power supply
costs are lower. Hydropower is the Company's lowest cost major resource. Conversely, when
snowpack and resulting streamflows are low, Idaho Power must rely increasingly upon its
thermal generating resources and purchased power from the regional market. The Company's
thermal generating resources (coal and gas plants) and purchased power are typically much more
costly than the Company's hydro-generation. Under the PCA mechanism, beginning February 1,
2009, the Company may recover 95% of the difference between projected power costs and
normal power costs included in base rates. Order No. 30715.
Because the PCA includes forecasted costs, the second PCA component consists of a true
up from the preceding year's forecasted costs to the actual costs incurred in the prior year. In
STAFF COMMENTS 2 MAY 14,2009
recent years, the true-up balance has been reduced using revenue from the sale of sulfu dioxide
(S02) allowances.
The third component is the "tre-up of the true-up," or reconcilation of the previous
year's true-up. This component is designed to ensure the Company recovers the actual approved
costs. Idaho Power uses "normalized" power sales (measured in kilowatt-hours (kWh)) from the
ensuing PCA year as the denominator to compute the adjusted tre-up rate. Over- or under-
recovery is balanced with the following year's true-up.
In a poor water, high cost year, Idaho ratepayers pay a large portion ofIdaho Power
Company's abnormal power supply costs. In a good water, low cost year, Idaho ratepayers are
credited with a large portion of the below normal cost savings.
IDAHO POWER'S PCA APPLICATION
A. The PCA Components
This year's PCA Application includes the 2009-2010 forecast of power supply costs; a
true-up of last year's forecasted costs to reflect actual costs and revenues; and reconciliation of
the 2008-2009 PCA year true-up (the true-up of the true-up). The Company calculates that the
net forecasted power supply cost is $260.1 millon for the 2009-2010 PCA year. This is $106.0
milion more than the $154.1 milion included in Base Rates. After adjustments and PCA
sharing, this results in a forecast rate of 0.5662 ~/kWh.
Idaho Power reports that the difference between last year's normal and actual power
supply costs adjusted by revenue generated from the forecast rate, the true-up component, is
$107.9 milion. The true-up amount becomes $103.3 milion after it is reduced by approximately
$4.6 milion to reflect S02 sales revenues. Application, p. 4. The Company calculates the true-
up portion of the PCA rate to be 0.7465 ~/kWh.
The third PCA rate element is the ''true-up of the tre-up" or reconcilation of the
previous year's true-up. Last year the Company under-collected the PCA deferral balance by
$22.0 milion. Application, p. 4. Dividing this amount by the projected 2009 Idaho
jurisdictional sales of 13,838,689 MWh results in a PCA surcharge rate of 0.1590 ~/kWh. Id
Combining the three components - the projected power costs rate of 0.5662 ~/kWh, the
true-up rate of 0.7465 ~/kWh and the true-up of the true-up rate of 0.1590 ~/kWh - results in a
proposed PCA surcharge rate for the 2009-2010 PCA year of 1.4717 ~/kWh. This represents an
increase of 0.6853 ~/kWh above the existing PCA rate of 0.7864 ~/kWh.
STAFF COMMENTS 3 MAY 14,2009
B. Impact of the Company's Rate Proposal
Idaho Power has proposed to implement the PCA rate on June 1,2009. The proposed
PCA rate represents an overall average percentage increase of 11.4% in Company revenue.
Although the PCA rate is an equal cents per kWh adjustment for all customers, each customer
class will receive a different percentage increase due to the different energy rates in effect for the
different customer classes. The table below shows the proposed increases in the PCA rates for
the major customer classes:
Customer Group Percentage
(Schedule)Increase
Residential (1)9.30%
Small Commercial (7)7.56%
Large Commercial (9)12.58%
Industrial (19)15.64%
Irrigation (24)11.08%
The PCA rates for Idaho Power's three special-contract customers (Micron, Simplot, and the
Deparment of Energy (INL)) would also increase. Under the Company's proposal the PCA rate
increase for the three special-contract customers would be 17.68% for Micron, 18.71 % for
Simplot, and 18.36% for the Idaho National Laboratory.
Attachment A to these comments is a char that shows the magnitude of the PCA for each
year since its inception in 1993. For 2009, both the Company and Staff proposals are shown.
Attchment B shows a history of Idaho Power's residential energy rates and identifies the PCA
components. The char also shows the Company and Staff proposals for 2009.
STAFF AUDIT AND ANALYSIS
The PCA has three components: 1) a forecast component; 2) a true-up component that
corrects for the previous years forecast error; and 3) a true-up of the previous year's true-up that
is a final correction. Set out below are the Staff s comments on the three PCA components.
A. The PCA Forecast
As previously discussed, the forecast is now prepared from the Company's most recent
Operating Plan (OP Plan). The OP Plan incorporates the most curent information available in
each update. An account by account breakdown of the Company's forecast proposal is shown on
STAFF COMMENTS 4 MAY 14,2009
Attachment C to these comments. The char shows the amount included in Base Rates, the
Forecast amount and the Difference. Account 555 - PURPA Purchases is shown separately from
other Account 555 Purchases because differences in PURPA Purchases are not shared, the entire
difference is passed on to customers.
Lines 1 through 14 of page 1 of Attchment D show the Company's calculation of the
Forecast Rate. Line 3 shows the expected reduction due to Hoku first block revenues and line 5
shows the customer sharing percentage that is applied to all power supply cost differences,
except the difference in PURP A costs. Line 8, Column (g), shows the forecast rate excluding the
portion of the forecast rate associated with the expected PURP A cost difference. This rate is
0.6451 ~/kWh. Lines 10 through 12 show the calculation ofthe portion of the Forecast Rate
associated with the expected difference in PURP A costs. This portion of the rate is negative
because expected PURP A costs are less than PURP A costs included in base rates. This rate is
-0.0789 ~/kWh. The two portions of the forecast rate combined produce the forecast rate shown
on line 14, 0.5662 ~/kWh. Among other things, this rate reflects expected below normal water
conditions. Under the new forecast methodology, Idaho Power does its own water forecast,
however, the Northwest River Forecast Center expects April through July Brownlee Reservoir
inflows to be 81 % of normaL.
Since the filing of this case the Company has updated its Operating Plan. Use of the
updated plan reduces forecasted system power supply costs by approximately $10.7 milion. The
recalculated forecast rate of 0.4967 ~/kWh is shown on page 2 of Attachment D, line 14.
Staff proposes that the Commission adopt a different Forecast Rate than those previously
discussed in an effort to phase in the change in forecast methodology and to mitigate the large
increase proposed by the Company in this case. As shown on page 3 of Exhibit D, Staff
proposes a forecast rate of 0.2500 ~/kWh. This rate is expected to recover approximately $34.6
milion of the $68.0 milion that the updated forecast would require. To the extent that this
forecast rate under-recovers the difference between actual and normal power supply cost, the
unecovered costs wil be captured in next year's tre-up. Staff is very much aware that the tre-
up methodology was changed to improve the forecast and that a rate that does not reflect the
improved forecast leaves money to be recovered the following year in the true-up just like a poor
forecast would. However, Staff believes the size of the proposed increase and the size of the true
up rate in place from a poor forecast last year justifies modifying the result for this year's PCA
forecast. Also, the proposed increase is over the 7% threshold established by the Commission at
STAFF COMMENTS 5 MAY 14,2009
which level spreading the increase over multiple years would be considered. Staffs proposal
spreads the recovery of forecast costs over two years. The forecast proposed by the Company is
the largest ever. The forecast proposed by Staff, produces the second largest forecast of record.
This attests to the enhanced accuracy of the forecast methodology and the likelihood of a
reduced true up next year.
B. The PCA True-Up
The PCA true-up captures the difference between normal and actual power supply costs
adjusted by revenue from the forecast rate. Rates were set in the previous PCA period to collect
or refud to customers the difference between the projected power supply costs and those costs
reflected in rates. This difference is the PCA deferral balance. This deferral balance, when
surcharged or refuded to customers is known as the PCA tre-up rate component.
Exhibit NO.1 to Idaho Power witness Scott Wright's testimony ilustrates the calculation
of the true-up deferral amount. To verify revenues and costs associated with Idaho Power's true-
up deferrals, Staff conducted an audit of actual revenues and expenses that occured during the
PCA year. These revenues and costs included the cloud seeding program, fuel expenses for coal,
fuel expenses for natual gas, and power purchases and sales. Staff also examined the Emission
Allowance Sales Credit and the Risk Management operating plan.
Attachment E is Staff s calculation of the true-up deferral amount before it is reduced by
the Emission Allowance Sales Credit. A sumar of the true-up is the following.
Idaho Jurisdictional Items
Last Year's Forecast Revenue
Last Year's Above Normal Power Supply Costs (Shared)
Last Year's Above Normal PURPA Facilties Costs
Interest
True-up Expense (Deferral)
MILLIONS
$ (3.7)
$ 143.0
$ (33.9)
$ 2.5
$ 107.9
Emission Allowance Sales Credit
Total True-up Deferral with Emission Allowance Sales Credit
$ (4.6)
$ 103.3
Staffs true-up recommendation differs slightly from Idaho Power's due to a small
difference in the Emission Allowance Sales Credit discussed later in these comments. The
following items are included in the PCA tre-up.
STAFF COMMENTS 6 MAY 14,2009
1. Base Power Supply. During the past PCA year actual power supply costs have been
measured against portions of three different base periods to determine deferral amounts. The
first base was in place for April and May of 2008 (2 months), the second base was in place June
2008 through Januar 2009 (8 months) and the third base was in place during Februar and
March of 2009 (2 months). In the Company's last PCA case the Commission approved
redistribution of the monthly AURORA base amounts to average monthly amounts. The first
two base periods in this true-up year used this distribution. The third base period in this true-up
year also redistributed the AURORA base. For the third base period, the Company has been
authorized to redistribute or shape base power supply costs according to the monthly distribution
of Idaho Jurisdictional Revenues. Since monthly deferral amounts are a calculation of the
difference between the actual power supply costs and base power supply costs, monthly deferral
amounts differ because the base has been redistributed or reshaped. The net difference for the
true-up year in this case is approximately $3.4 milion to the customers' benefit. Monthly
differences can be large and customers may not always benefit. Staff proposes to track the
differences each year and to propose changes to the methodology if the differences becomes
unacceptable.
2. S02 Proceeds. Commission Order No. 30790 in Case Nos. IPC-E-09-08 and
IPC-E-08-14 was issued on May 1,2009 and ordered that $5,347,453 of Emission Allowance
Sales ($5,299,875 plus accrued interest of$47,578 as of March 31,2009) be used to offset the
Company's PCA deferral balance this year. This is a system number. The amount used by the
Company for the Emission Allowance sales credit is $4,591,632. This is the Idaho jursdictional
amount and includes interest through March 2009. As shown on page 3 of Attachment D, line
20 in the "Base" column of Staffs Recommendation, the S02 credit amount with interest
through May 31, 2009 is $4,600,857. The difference between the amounts used by the Company
in its PCA fiing and Staff s recommendation is due to interest on the S02 credit balance for
April and May 2009. The S02 credit is a benefit to customers.
3. Cloud Seeding Program. Cloud seeding expenses have been recorded in the PCA
since October 2006. In Case No. IPC-E-05-28, Order No. 30035, monthly cloud seeding
expenses were incorporated into base rates. In this PCA period, the cloud seeding expense in
base rates is $719,261. The actual amount of expense for the Cloud Seeding Program for the
PCA period from April 2008 through March 2009 is $608,785. Actual expenses are less than the
STAFF COMMENTS 7 MAY 14,2009
expense in base rates by $110,476. This represents a benefit to customers and is subject to
jurisdictional allocation and sharing.
4. Fuel Expense - CoaL. A large portion ofIdaho Power's electricity comes from
thermal power produced from coal plants. The three coal plants that Idaho Power owns an
interest in are Bridger, Valmy and Boardman. The increase or decrease in the coal expense from
base rates is included in the PCA for recovery from or refud to customers. For the audit period
of April 2008 to March 2009, the total coal expense for all plants in operation is $135,782,138.
The total coal expense included in base rates is $112,483,839. This year's PCA deferral balance
includes a difference between costs currently included in rates and actual costs of $23,298,299.
This cost to customers is subject to jurisdictional allocation and sharing.
5. Fuel Expense - Gas. Idaho Power curently owns and operates gas-fired combustion
turbine generating plants at the Evander Andrews Power Complex (3 Danskin units) and Bennett
Mountain. These plants are both located at Mountain Home and account for 100% of gas usage.
For the audit period of April 2008 to March 2009 the total variable gas and gas
transportation expense for both complexes was $15,196,631; down from $20,823,773 durng the
last PCA period. The total gas and gas transporttion expense included in base rates is
$11,108,299. The increase or decrease in gas expense from base rates is included in the PCA for
recovery from or refud to customers. In this year's PCA deferral balance, the additional gas
expense that is included for future recovery from customers is $4,088,322 and is subject to
jurisdictional allocation and sharing.
6. Power Sales and Purchases. Staff reviewed the power purchases and sales in
conjunction with the Company's Risk Management Operating Plans. Our analysis did not find
any transaction that was not reasonable or did not follow the Risk Management Committee's
recommendations. These transactions were made with an assortment of credit-worthy parners
on a timely basis, and there were no transactions conducted with an Idaho Power affiiate.
a. Power Sales. Durng the PCA year ending March 31,2009, the Company sold surlus
power totaling $107,888,656. The total surlus sales included in base rates is $124,387,177.
The increase or decrease in the power sales from base rates is included in the PCA for recovery
from or refud to customers and is subject to jurisdictional allocation and sharng. Actual
surlus sales were less than base amounts by $16,498,521. This difference is a reduction of
revenues to the detriment of customers and is subject to jurisdictional allocation and sharing.
STAFF COMMENTS 8 MAY 14,2009
b. Power Purchases including Telocaset and Raft River. Power purchases included in
base rates are shown on Line 34, Attchment E. Market purchases, Telocaset Wind Power
Parers, and Raft River (the shared portion) are combined in this base number. On the PCA
spreadsheet, the actual amounts for these three purchase types are stated as separate line items.
During the PCA year ending March 31, 2009, the Company made market purchases,
excluding PURPA contracts. The actual amount is $151,742,384.
Beginnng in November 2007, Idaho Power began receiving power from Telocaset Wind
Power Parners project. This wind project was included in base rates in the last general rate case,
Case No. IPC-E-07-08, Order No. 30508. The actual amount included in this year's PCA is
$13,720,772.
On October 5, 2007, Idaho Power Company fied an application requesting an accounting
order authorizing the inclusion of all power supply expenses associated with the purchase of
energy from Raft River Energy I LLC in the Power Cost Adjustment mechanism. The
underlying Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) for 13 MW is pursuant to a company Request for
Proposal for geothermal resources and is the initial agreement with the U.S. Geothermal, Inc. of
what wil total 45.5 MW of geothermal energy. In Order No. 30485, the Commission found that
the Company's proposal to recover 100% of the Power Purchase Agreement-related costs
through its Power Cost Adjustment mechanism to be acceptable only for the first 10 aMW of
PPA generation, and that the remaining PPA generation is subject to the PCA treatment accorded
non-PURP A projects, and therefore subject to sharng. The actual Raft River amount included
for non-PURP A recovery (the shared amount) is $274,426. The remaining Raft River amount is
included below in section 7.
The total power purchases, including market power, Telocaset Wind Power Parners and
the portion of Raft River subject to sharng is $165,737,582 ($151,742,384 plus $13,720,772
plus $274,426). The total power purchases included in base rates is $40,862,142. Actual
purchased power amounts exceed base amounts by $124,875,440. This difference is a cost to
customers and is subject to jurisdictional allocation and sharng.
7. Actual Qualifying Facilties Purchases Including Net Metering and Raft River. A
Qualifying Facilty (QF) is a generating facility which meets the requirements for QF status
under the Public Utilty Regulatory Policies Act of 1978 (PURPA) and Part 292 of the Federal
Energy Regulatory Commission's Regulations (18 C.F.R. Part 292), and which has obtained
certification of its QF status. There are two types of QFs - cogeneration facilties and small
STAFF COMMENTS 9 MAY 14,2009
power production facilties. Qualifying Facilties are sometimes referred to as
cogeneration/small power producers or by the acronym CSPP.
A Cogeneration Facilty is a generating facilty that sequentially produces electricity and
another form of useful thermal energy (such as heat or steam) used for industrial, commercial,
residential or institutional puroses, and otherwse meets the requirements of 18 C.F.R. §§
292.203(b) and 292.205 for operation, efficiency and use of energy output.
A Small Power Production Facilty is a generating facility whose primar energy source
is renewable (hydro, wind, solar, etc.), biomass, waste, or geothermal resources, and that
otherwse meets the requirements of 18 C.F.R. §§ 292.203(a), 292.203(c) and 292.204. Small
power production facilties are limited in size to 80 MW, with the exception of certain types of
facilties certified prior to 1995 and designated as "eligible" under section 3(17)(E) of the Federal
Power Act (FPA) (15 U.S.C. § 796(17)(E), which have no size limitation.
For the audit period of April 2008 through March 2009 the actual QF expense is
$46,967,783. The Raft River amount included in the tre-up deferral balance at 100% recovery
is $4,758,932. The total actual QF expense, including Raft River is $51,726,715. The QF
expense included in base rates is $87,541,896. The increase or decrease in the QF expense from
base rates is included in the PCA for recovery from or refud to customers. In this year's PCA
deferral balance, the actual QF expense was less than the base QF by $35,815,181. This amount
is a benefit to customers and reduces the PCA deferral balance. PURP A contracts are not
curently subject to sharing. They are subject to jurisdictional allocation.
8. Third Pary Transmission. In Order No. 30715, Case No. IPC-E-08-19, the
Commission found that third-pary transmission costs that are incurred in conjunction with
market purchases and sales should be tracked through the PCA like other variable power supply
costs, and that including the expenses in the PCA is a straightforward treatment of power supply
costs that fluctuate with power purchases and sales.
For the audit period of April 2008 to March 2009, the actual third par transmission
expense is $790,343. The Third Pary Transmission expense included in base rates is
$1,650,586. This year's PCA deferral balance includes a difference between costs curently
included in rates and actual costs of $860,243. Since the actual costs are less than the amount
included in base rates, this amount represents a benefit to customers. This benefit to customers is
subject to jurisdictional allocation and sharng.
STAFF COMMENTS 10 MAY 14,2009
9. Water Lease Purchases. The actual amount included in the balance for water lease
purchases in the curent PCA period is $2,391,740. This is an expense that does not occur in
every PCA period. For example, in the last PCA period there were no water lease purchases.
However, the PCA is the proper venue for recovery of water lease purchases. This expense is a
cost to customers and is subject to jurisdictional allocation and sharing.
C. The PCA True-Up of the True-Up
The PCA true-up of the true-up amount is the difference between what was anticipated to
be collected or refuded when the PCA rate for last year's true-up was set and what was actually
collected or refuded. The amount represents the under or over recovery of the true-up amount
from the previous year due to a different amount of kWh being sold than was anticipated in the
rate design. The true-up of the true-up is a benefit to both the Company and customers because
any true-up over collection is returned to customers, and any true-up under collection is
recovered by the Company.
The true-up amount set for recovery in last year's PCA case (Case No. IPC-E-08-07) was
approximately $124.1 millon and the rate calculated to recover that amount from customers was
0.7504 ~/kWh. With other adjustments and interest considerations, the approved rate under
collected the true-up amount by $22.0 milion. As shown on page 3 of Attchment D, line 23,
this amount is used to calculate the true-up of the true-up PCA rate component of 0.1590 ~/kWh.
This is the same rate the Company calculated.
PCARATES
The Staffs calculated PCA rate of 1.1554 ~/kWh is the sum of the three components
listed above (0.2500 + 0.7464 + 0.1590 = 1.1554). This rate is shown on page 3 of Attchment
D, line 26. As previously discussed, Staff includes approximately one-half of the Company's
updated forecast for the coming year and, therefore, proposes 0.2500 for the forecast rate. The
true-up rate, 0.7464, is based on the true-up amounts included in the Company's filing with a
small interest adjustment proposed by Staff. The true-up of the true-up rate, 0.1590, is the same
rate included in the Company's fiing. Staff Attchment F sumarizes all PCA rate components
and their associated expense amounts. Page 1 shows the Company's case and page 2 shows the
Staffs case. The Attchments also show amounts allocated to other jursdictions and amounts
shared with shareholders.
STAFF COMMENTS 11 MAY 14,2009
Page 1 of Attachment G shows the proposed average increase above base rates by class
and page 2 of Attachment G shows the proposed average increase above existing rates by class.
Staff proposes that existing rates be increased by $50.5 milion which produces an average
increase to Idaho Power's customers of6.14%. This compares to the Company's fied proposal
to increase rates $93.8 milion, approximately 11.4%. Attachment G shows the proposed
increases for all customer classes. Staffs proposed increase for residential customers is 5.01 %.
In both of these attachments the percentage increase to larger customers is substantially
more than the average percentage increase. When power supply costs increase rates, larger
customers receive larger than average percentage increases. This results because large customers
have lower base rates than other customers and an equal cents/kWh increase makes a larger
percentage difference to them than it does to smaller customers whose base rates are higher.
CONSUMER ISSUES
Idaho Power's PCA Application, fied on April 15, 2009, contained both the customer
notice and press release. Staff reviewed them and determined that they complied with the notice
requirements ofIDAPA 31.21.02.102. The customer notice was mailed with Idaho Power's
cyclical bilings beginning April 24, 2009 and ending May 22,2009. Customers had until May
14, 2009 to fie comments.
An informational customer workshop was scheduled in Boise on May 5, 2009 at 7:00
p.m. No customers attended the meeting.
By May 13,2009, thirty-four customers had sent comments to the Commission regarding
the PCA. One-third of those who sent comments mentioned that water was seemingly plentiful
this year and so did not understand why poor water was cited by Idaho Power as a major factor
in its need to increase rates in this year's PCA filing. One-half of those commenting questioned
why the curent economic downtur was not a valid reason for the Commission to tell the
Company "no" to any rate increases at this time.
PCA RECOMMENDATIONS
The Staffs recommendation differs substantially from the Company's in the amount of
the forecast to be passed to customers in this year's PCA rates. In addition to the reasons for
Staffs recommendation that have been previously given, Staff believes that the large tre up rate
that will almost certainly be put in place in this case will expire next year. Staff believes that it is
STAFF COMMENTS 12 MAY 14,2009
probable that the remainder of the unecovered forecast can be moved to next year's true up
without a rate increase.
Staff recommends that a PCA rate of 1.1554 ~/kWh be established by the Commission
with an effective date of June 1,2009.
Respectfully submitted this 144J day of May 2009.
