The intent of the report is to provide an overview of the entire selection process. A vista has extensive documentation records that were kept throughout the work effort. Those records are available to provide the details supporting the decisions that were made by the Company. Many of those records contain confidential bids and proprietary analysis done by third parties. Certain information is therefore intentionally kept general in this report to avoid inappropriate disclosure. Plannin2 & Determination of Resource Need Fall 1998 Through Spring 2000 Fall 1999 Fall 1999 Through Spring 2000 Centralia Sale . On October 30, 1998, the Centralia owners approved moving forward with a plan to put the entire generating plant and mine up for sale. In November 1998, the Centralia plant was put up for formal bidding. . On May 7, 1999, the Centralia TECW A was selected as the winning bidder. The mine owners executed a sale agreement with TECW dependant on obtaining board and regulatory approvals and upon resolution of several other plant and mine related issues. . On May 5, 2000, the Centralia power plant was sold to TECW A by the joint owners. Medium-Term Power Purchase In October 1999, the Company contracted with TECW A for 200MW of capacity and energy for Ql , Q2, and Q4 contingent on the sale of the plant and continuing through 12/31/03. A contingent purchase was most beneficial due to the real uncertainty as to whether all of the sale contingencies could be worked through satisfactorily. Resource Site Option Investigation The Company began meetings in August to discuss resource projects in the Pacific Northwest region that were felt to be possible long-term resource candidates. A list of likely sites in the region was made. All of the projects were combined cycle natural gas combustion turbine sites. From September through November, a total of 32 project sites were visited. Information was collected regarding permitting status construction schedules, potential costs, unique issues, etc. Air permit issues, water source issues, water discharge issues, community support issues, electric transmission, natural gas transmission, etc. were part of the data gathered from the different meetings and visits. The company considered the prospect of a project consisting of either Resource Selection Report February 14 2001 Exh. 6 / Schedule 1 R. Lafferty A vista Corporation Page 2 of 16 Avista CCCT Initial Siting Study I CCCT Turbine Site Study Book #2) .. Pacific Northwest Combined Cycle Combustion Turbine Generation Facility Siting Study ICCCTTurbine Site Study Book #2) Spring 2000 one or two combined cycle combustion turbines. The assumption was that a two-unit project would be a partnership arrangement where a third-party would take on the obligations of the second unit. Both parties would share in the economies of scale that occur when two units are managed together at one location. Alternatively, the second unit could still be built at a later date. November through December, company staff processed through information gathered on different sites in a series of meetings. Sites with significant roadblocks were eliminated through a group review process. Five sites were selected for further evaluation and study. Those sites were: Rathdrum, Idaho (at the current simple cycle project location); Kaiser Mead; Hermiston, Oregon; Starbuck, Washington; Vana1co (near Vancouver, W A). In January 2000, the company contracted with Dames & Moore to perform a more thorough site evaluation on those project sites identified. Some of the evaluation areas were air permit issues, water source issues, water discharge issues, noise issues , etc. The consultant was asked to consider issues and suitability of the site relative to place either one 250MW combined cycle turbine or two 250MW combined cycle turbines (500MW total) at each of the sites. The relative benefits of one project site over another can change depending on whether one or two combined cycle turbines are planned. The company wanted these differences identified. April 2000 saw the completion of the Dames & Moore project site study. Rathdrum was the top ranked project site for a single combined cycle turbine. Kaiser-Mead ranked as a top project site for a two unit project. The Dames & Moore study was reviewed with the IRP T AC group on 6/22/00. Updated Resource Plan/Criteria The company reviewed various planning issues along with updating the company s Load & Resource tabulation showing the removal of its share of the output from Centralia in mid-year 2000. One planning factor that was changed was the degree to which the company would plan to rely on the short-term market to meet load obligations. However, as prices continued to rise in the late spring of 2000, the company concluded that it should reduce its reliance on the short-term market to meet planned resource requirements. The L&R showed over 300aMW of need in 2004. A similar amount of annual capacity need was also shown. In addition to looking at annual capacity and energy L&R positions, the company also looked at the month by month L&R position during on-peak and off-peak times. The company reviewed its position monthly over several years. Again, 2004 showed significant deficits and therefore would be the focus of future discussions regarding the Exh. 6/ Schedule 1 R. Lafferty A vista Corporation Resource Selection Report February 14 2001 Page 3 of 16 WUTC IPUC staff meetings. I Planning-Need Book #3) Spring 2000 company s resource need. The company met with the WUTC staff on 5/23/00 and the IPUC staff and commissioners on 6/2/00. The purpose of those meetings was to review the company s Load & Resource tabulation, the size and timing of resource need, the types of resource options, and the process or steps that the company should take to select resources for filling the identified needs. The company laid out some general concepts for the all-resource RFP. The company also developed and presented "deficiency duration curves" showing the percent of time that the company would be deficient a certain amount of power using the Prosym hourly dispatch model and 60 years of hydro data. The area under the curve gives a good general indication of the amount of energy needed to meet resource requirements. (Peaking plants were removed from the resource stack in this presentation of data, and then they were shown added back to show how they fit peak needs.) A base load resource, such as a combined cycle combustion turbine, was shown to fit the deficiency gap. The company began work on a 1997 Integrated Resource Plan Update at the suggestion of the WUTC staff. We discussed that it was most expedient to file an update of an already filed and accepted plan in order to get an official acceptance of resource need from the commission. The other alternative would have been to file the IRP that was in progress. This would have taken much longer to get commission review and acceptance. The company proceeded to address key areas of the plan, identified by WUTC staff, that would require updating. Updated 1997 IRP The IRP is a long-term planning tool used to determine Avista energy and capacity balance for a ten-year period. The IRP itemizes Avista s peak and average loads firm contract resources and obligations, and power plant energy production and capacity (under critical water conditions) on an annual basis. Netting these numbers illustrates Avista s annual surplus or deficit energy and capacity position to serve native load. Due to changes in the native load forecast, changes in power plant ownership, and changes in long-term firm contract resources and obligations it was necessary to revise the 1997 IRP to show the most current load and resource position. The IRP was revised and submitted to the WUTC on July 12 2000. The IRP shows Avista deficit in load and resource balance through 2003 under critical water conditions. In 2004 and beyond, the IRP shows A vista requiring up to 300 MW of energy and capacity to meet native load requirements. . A vista used the 2000 Gas IRP as a starting point for the 1997 IRP Update electric price forecast. It is reasonable to assume that a new generation combined cycle combustion turbine is the likely marginal Exh. 6 / Schedule 1 R. Lafferty A vista Corporation Page 4 of 16Resource Selection Report February 14,2001 June/July 2000 lRP Technical Advisory Team Meeting I Planning- Need Book #3) resource of the future. Applying historical spark spreads to quantify a possible electric forecast is a reasonable method to show how a new resource may fair under different market conditions. IRPIRFP Review Because of the need for substantial long-term resources, the company developed drafts of an all-resource request for proposals (RFP). The company developed a draft RFP during May and June 2000. . On 6-22-00, company staff reviewed the basic components of the 1997 IRP Update with the IRP Technical Advisory Committee (T AC) in Spokane. WUTC staff, IPUC staff, Northwest Energy Coalition, and Northwest Energy Services were in attendance at the meeting and provided some comments. Company staff reviewed the Prosym hourly dispatch model that was being used to evaluate resource options. The Company s natural gas and electric price forecasts were discussed. The company also shared draft copies of the proposed all-resource RFP. The RFP would assess options available in the market to compare to its own company sponsored projects. Company staff also made a presentation regarding the company s new resource site investigation process including the Dames & Moore site investigation study. The company followed up with WUTC staff, IPUC staff, Washington State Public Council, Industrial Customers of Northwest Utilities, Washington Dept. of Community, Trade and Economic Development, and Northwest Energy Coalition to get comments on both the 1997 IRP Update and the proposed RFP. Various comments were received and worked through. The company shared ProSym model run data showing how the A vista resources would be modeled with commission staff. July/August IRPIRFP Approvals 2000 lRP and RFP Filed With WUTC IPUC I Planning-Need Book #3) . On July 12 2000, the 1997 IRP Update (IRP) was filed with both commissions to supplement the Company s previous plan filed pursuant to WAC 480-100-251 in Washington and by Idaho Order No. 22299. The RFP filings were based on the Company s IRP. As described in the preceding sections, Avista s revised loads and resources demonstrated a need for power. . A vista Corp filed its Request For Proposals (RFP) with the WUTC on July 13, 2000 and with the IPUC on July 12, 2000. The RFP indicated that the company was seeking proposals for approximately 300 MW of capacity and energy and that flexibility/dispatchability of a resource was a preference. Proposals were sought on all resource types. Renewable resources were given a 10% price credit. The RFP was filed pursuant to the WUTC's rule requiring solicitation of competitive bids under WAC 480-107. The Company Exh. 6 / Schedule 1 R. Lafferty Avista Corporation Page 5 of 16Resource Selection Report February 14 2001 RFP Approved by WUTC and recognized by IPUc. f Planning-Need Book#4J opted to file identical copies with IPUC for purposes of keeping the Idaho Commission abreast of resource procurement issues on the same timeline. The Company met with Commission Staffs prior to each filing as described in preceding sections. These meetings, in combination with Avista June IRP Technical Advisory Committee meeting, allowed the Company to gain stakeholder input prior to the release of the RFP. . On July 12, 2000, the company mailed copies of the filed RFP to potential bidders or interested parties for their review and comment. . On July 18 2000, the WUTC formally noticed the filing of Avista RFP and requested comments by August 8, 2000. . On July 21 , 2000, the IPUC formally noticed Avista s RFP and requested comments by August 11 , 2000. . On August 2, 2000, company representatives met with IPUC staff and Commissioners in Boise to review the 1997 IRP Update and the RFP and to respond to questions. . On August 9, 2000, the WUTC heard commission staff, intervenor and company comments on Avista s all-resource RFP. The WUTC Commission Staff developed a memorandum supporting both the need for resources identified in the 1997 IRP Update and the RFP. The WUTC approved the RFP in Docket NO. UE-001O81. IPUC staff issued their recommendations on August 11th noting that issuance of the RFP was an appropriate action. On October 10th, the IPUC issued Order No. 28542 regarding the RFP, in Case NO. A VU-08 noting that approval is not necessary. The IPUC stated the Company is commended for soliciting public input into its RFP process. As an ongoing process, the Company agreed, as part of the Commission approvals, to provide the Staffs access to all materials needed to review the final evaluation system before the bids were opened. Further, the Company committed to sharing all modeling and analysis with the Staffs for the purpose of verifying the final selections. The RFP was released to the public on August 14, 2000. The RFP and the 1997 IRP Update were published on A vista s web-site. An announcement was posted in newspapers in Spokane, Seattle and Portland. Media was contacted and interviews were conducted regarding the Company s need for resources and the RFP. The company asked for bids to be returned by September 18,2000. Exh. 6/ Schedule 1 R. Lafferty A vista Corporation Page 6 of 16 Resource Selection Report February 14 2001 Evaluation and Decision-Supply Side Sept.- 2000 Review RFP Evaluation Process with WUTCI/PUC staff (Planning- Need Book #4) Supply-Side Evaluation Matrix Development . A vista determined that a first screening would ensure that bid proposals met required criteria as stated in the RFP. Bidders were to provide general qualifications as outlined in the RFP plus the project specific information requested for each proposal submitted. The RFP document laid out the three principle areas that would be the focus of further evaluation: Electric power characteristics; finance/price characteristics; and social/environmental characteristics. The company had committed to commission staff to develop a more detailed evaluation matrix based on the principle areas prior to the opening of RFP bid proposals. The company developed a set of financial/price and non-price factors with associated weightings. This evaluation matrix and write-up describing the various weightings and the ranking process was reviewed with WUTC and IPUC staff members on September 13, 2000. FinanciallPrice Factors . To provide a consistent evaluation framework, the Screening Work Group developed a matrix to evaluate all supply-side proposals against. The matrix contained the categories of FinanciallPrice Evaluation Factors, and Non-Price Evaluation Factors. FinanciallPrice factors received a 65% total weighting. Within this category, three sub-categories, and their weightings, were assigned. The FinanciallPrice Factors were: economic benefits (35%); financial performance capability (15%); and fuel price risk (15%). Economic benefits assessed the net savings, on a per-MWh basis, that each proposal brought to the Company s resource portfolio. Financial Performance Capability assessed the likelihood that the bidder had the financial ability to complete the proposed project. Fuel Price Risk quantified the potential for the price of the proposal' fuel source to change significantly. For example, flat purchase contracts that were not tied to the price of an underlying fuel source rated highly. Projects consuming natural gas received a lower rating. Non-Price Evaluation Factors . Non-Price Evaluation Factors received a 35% total weighting. In each category, sub-categories and weightings were assigned. Within the Non-Price Evaluation Factors were: fuel availability risk (5%); Electric Factors (20%); and Environmental Factors (10%). Fuel Availability Risk assessed the availability of supply and any risks associated with delivery of the fuel. Electric Factors provided an area to evaluate such characteristics as ramping rates, dispatchability, reactive supply, the supply source, and system integration. Resource Selection Report February 14,2001 Exh. 6 / Schedule 1 R. Lafferty Avista Corporation Page 7 of 16 September 2000 Henwood Pricing Forecast lEva/.- Decision Book #2) Environmental Factors were designed to ensure adequate pennits were available, that environmental laws and regulations were adhered to, and proven technology was used to meet such laws and regulations. Pricine Study - Henwood Ener2V Services. Inc Under contract with A vista, Henwood Energy Services, Inc. (RESI) delivered a WSCC Regional Market Price Forecast study on September 22, 2000. The price forecast included monthly heavy and light load electricity prices and annual gas prices (later updated to monthly gas prices) for the years 2001 - 2022. The wholesale electric and natural fi.as price forecast was derived from HESI's proprietary Prosym M and Electric Market Simulation System software. (ProsymTM performs detailed fundamental simulation of the electric wholesale market on an hour-to-hour basis. Electric production is modeled at the generation unit level while system loads and transmission constraints are modeled on an hourly basis. ProsymTM computes market clearing prices and generation production for user-defined transmission zones. As a third party source with recognized expertise in electric and natural gas forecasting, A vista used HESI's electric and natural gas forecast as the source for the second screen RFP economic evaluation process. The base electric price forecast was subject to many market variables. Plant availability, plant additions, gas prices, hydro conditions, load growth, and transmission constraints could all affect the future price of wholesale electricity. HESI provided a report (dated September 2000) and a supplemental report (dated December 21 2000) detailing assumptions made in the electric and natural gas price forecast. Development Of High and Low Electric Price Scenarios: . To illustrate the impact of different levels of new capacity additions in the WSCC on wholesale electricity prices HESI performed an electric price scenario analysis for the period 2001 through 2005. the underbuild scenario, 9 000 MW of new generation (only capacity that was under construction as of August 2000) comes on line in the WSCC during the 2001-2005 period. The overbuild scenario was simulated by including 23,000 MW of new generation in the WSCC with announced commercial operation dates before 2005. This represents roughly 44 percent of known announced generation in the WSCc. Natural gas prices were assumed to be the same as the base case. Exh. 6 / Schedule 1 R. Lafferty A vista Corporation Page 8 of 16 Resource Selection Report February 14 2001 September 2000 September 2000 . To quantify a reasonable spread of potential longer term high and low electric price scenarios, Avista used HESI's scenario analysis as a starting point. A paper by Professor Andrew Ford of Washington State University discusses cycles in the electric industry due to overbuilding and underbuilding electric plant. A vista used the frequency interval (7 years) between periods of peak over or under building from Dr. Ford combined with the amplitude of the electric price from the HESI over or under build scenarios to extrapolate a high and a low price forecast through the year 2025. . After discussion with Commission staff, A vista finalized the high/low electric price forecast scenarios by smoothing the over/underbuild data to represent a high and low price forecast. The Company extended the price forecasts through 2025 using the growth rate between 2021 and 2022 to meet the need for a forecast of 25-year duration. Prosym Analysis Methodology Prosym is commercially available production cost modeling tool that optimizes hourly dispatch of company owned or contract generation resources against load requirements, gas and electric price infonnation, and supply or requirements contracts. A vista used Prosym 1M to estimate costs and benefits to A vista s utility system of the RFP bids and the self-build option. The resulting model output quantifies how each RFP bid or self-build resource option meets the hourly requirements of Avista s electric system with the least production cost. Models of Avista s system included on-peak and off-peak loads hydroelectric and thennal generating resources, contractual sales and purchases, and spot-market sales and purchases The model was run without proposed resource options and then with each resource proposal individually to determine the net benefit of each resource option to the company. Economic AnalysislRevenue Requirements Modeling All proposals entering at least the second screening were to be evaluated with an economic spreadsheet model developed by the company. The spreadsheet calculated project benefits/costs by year for the 2001-2025 period, including rate-of-retum loadings. The economic analysis spreadsheet obtained four columns of annual data for each proposal directly from Prosym: generation, fuel costs variable O&M and start-up costs, and operating margin net of variable costs. The economic analysis went further to include in its Resource Selection Report February 14,2001 Exh. 6/ Schedule 1 R. Lafferty Avista Corporation Page 9 of 16 September 2000 October 2000 calculations of margin each proposals fixed costs, including debt service, rate of return, taxes, and transportation. Each proposal's final economic analysis value was determined using the operating margin net of all fixed and variable costs on a per-MWh basis. Initial Screening Process . On September 18, 2000 Avista received 32 proposals for 2,700 megawatts from 23 parties in response to its RFP. Of the 32 proposals, 8 were energy efficiency bids, 6 were for renewable resources, and 18 were supply or unit-contingent offers. Bid proposals were opened in the presence of supply and demand-side company personnel as well as a representative of the WUTC. Energy efficiency bids were provided to the DSM workgroup for a parallel analysis and evaluation process. Copies of the 24 remaining proposals were distributed to the supply- side Screening Work Group for evaluation. The supply-side Screening Work Group was made up of 12 senior-level Avista employees from varying areas of expertise, including engineering, regulatory affairs, wholesale marketing, resource optimization finance, transmission, environmental, and natural gas. The supply-side Screening Work Group applied their expertise to determine the completeness of each proposal against the requirements of the RFP. Based on its completeness, it was decided by the work group whether a bid proposal should move forward to the next screen. Where applicable, certain parties were contacted by telephone to clarify the details of their proposals and in some instances to remove deficiencies in them. . On September 21 the Screening Work Group gathered to share their findings and screen out those proposals that didn t significantly meet the general requirements set forth in the RFP. Letter notifications were sent to three parties on September 22, 2000 stating that their proposals did not significantly meet the general requirements set forth in the evaluated. A verbal review of the process to date was conducted with both WUTC and IPUC staffs. 2nd Screening Process All supply-side proposals that passed through the Initial Screening Process were evaluated in a 2nd Screening Process that included the price and non-price evaluation factors described above. Several parties with proposals in the 2nd screening were contacted by various Screening Work Group individuals to clarify certain proposal details. Prosym models were run based on Henwood natural gas and electricity base case forecasts , as well as low and high market electric price scenario forecasts. Exh. 6/ Schedule 1 R. Lafferty Avista Corporation Page 10 of 16 Resource Selection Report February 14 2001 Screened to Short List of Seven Projects (Eval. Decision Book #1) November 2000 RW BeckRFP Bid Analysis Review (Eval. -Decision Book#3j Economic analysis/revenue requirements spreadsheets were generated using all available information. The supply-side Screening Work Group convened October 11,2000 to assign values to the second round screening matrix. . A short list of five proposals resulted from this screening process step, including market purchases, small hydro, and one utility natural gas- fired turbine option. Analysis and results of this screening ste~ were reviewed with IPUC and WUTC staff on October 18th and 20 respectively. WUTC and IPUC requested two additional natural gas-fired turbine proposals be included on the short-list, bringing the total up to seven. RW Beck - Resource Analysis Process Review RW Beck Consultants were retained to assess Avista s proposal evaluation process. RW Beck reviewed the anal~is of a representative sample of bid proposals including Prosym inputs and assumptions, the WSCC Regional Electricity Market Price Forecast Study prepared by lIESI the high and low case electric price scenarios and economic models and analyses used to calculate the expected net benefit of each proposal to Avista s system. R. W. Beck recommended additional fine tuning of the analysis including: Resource dispatching against forecasted hourly market energy prices, separate energy and capacity prices used in the analysis use of monthly gas prices, and modification of price sensitivity cases. RW Beck's review of Avista s analysis is summarized below: 1. Avista s approach provides a reasonable way to determine which option is most viable 2. Approach taken by A vista provides for a fair comparison of the resource options and does not inherently disadvantage any of the reviewed RFP bids 3. Avista has included the necessary parameters in both the Prosym modeling and in the economic analyses 4. R. W. Beck did not find any material deficiencies (including miscalculation of formulas or omission of essential data) in the analyses reviewed Exh. 6/ Schedule 1 R. Lafferty A vista Corporation Page 11 of 16 Resource Selection Report February 14 2001 November 2000 RW Beck Market Price Forecast Assumptions and Methodology fEval.Decision Book #3) RW Beck Enerl!V and Capacity Price Forecast RW Beck Forecast As suggested in the process review Avista contracted with RW Beck to provide a more detailed energy and capacity electric and gas forecast that included hourly electric prices and monthly gas prices. This granular forecast more closely represents market conditions on an intra-day basis when generation capacity approaches load requirements. As seen recently in the western power market, as load requirements approaches supply limits, dramatic price spikes can and will occur. While it was not the intent of this long-term analysis to estimate short-term price spikes, the purpose of the more granular analysis was to better represent the volatility in the market. RW Beck's hourly forecast captures price spikes, in a long-term sense, by assuming that the generator on the margin must receive adequate compensation to pay for all fixed and variable costs plus a profit. In a mature electric market, demand is much less than supply during most periods within a year. Occasionally, when load increases dramatically due to weather, machines trip off-line, transmission lines fail, or hydro conditions are poor, demand will approach or exceed supply. Under these circumstances generators must recover all expenses to maintain economic viability in the long-term. Differences between RW Beck and HESI Forecasts A vista contracted with lIESI to provide a long-term electric price forecast. This forecast was used during the first two screening processes of the RFP review. After retaining RW Beck to review Avista s analysis process, RW Beck suggested using a refined electric and natural gas forecast that included the following: Resource dispatching against forecasted hourly market energy pnces Separate energy and capacity prices in analysis Use of monthly gas prices Modification of price sensitivity cases The resulting differences between HESI's forecast and RW Beck' forecast were within a reasonable range of one another on an average basis. However, the granularity of RW Beck's forecast enabled the flexible resources to capture the value of the market on an hourly basis resulting in greater benefits to Avista s system.

Lafferty A vista Corporation Page 12 of 16 Oct,/Nov. - 2000 Dec, -2000 jrd Screening Results f Eval. -Decision Book #1) Sensitivity Analysis In addition to the basecase forecast, RW Beck provided three sensitivity cases in the hourly price forecast. These were: 1. High Fuel Price Case with natural gas prices 25% higher than the Base Case 2. Low Fuel Price Case with natural gas prices 25% lower than the Base Case 3. High Load Case with WSCC loads 1.5% higher than the Base Case Third Screening Process . Short-listed proposals were subject to greater scrutiny in the 3rd screen. Electric and natural gas transportation pricing and availability were verified. Where applicable, project heat rates and generating capacity were adjusted to account for seasonal variances and losses. The Company s Rathdrum project was refined to include two potential configurations. . Two short-listed parties were removed from further consideration due to transmission and financial performance capability issues. . RW. Beck price forecasts for natural gas and electricity replaced the earlier Henwood pricing values. The biggest change was a shift to hourly electricity pricing and loads in Prosym. The economic analysis/revenue requirement spreadsheets were updated with all newly available information. Coyote Springs 2 became available as a resource option. . On November 21,2000 the Screening Work Group re-convened to develop a new matrix for the short-listed proposals and a recommendation for presentation to Company officers. Since Rathdrum continued to be a highly ranked project, community meetings were held in the Rathdrum area to discuss the potential of an expansion and accept public comments. A number of interested parties were contacted, including the Kootenai Environmental Alliance, the Pan Handle Health District, the City of Rathdrum, and various other community and neighborhood groups. Decision Following the conclusion of the 3rd screen, a meeting was convened with the Company officers to discuss the results of the RFP process. Results of the supply- and demand-side efforts were shared. . On November 28-29 met with IPUC and WUTC staff in Spokane to discuss the results of the 3rd screening. Staff was informed of the expectation that Coyote Springs 2 would be the Company s choice on the supply side. RW. Beck made a presentation on its new market price forecasts and its review of the Company s RFP process. The Exh. 6/ Schedule 1 R. Lafferty A vista Corporation Page 13 of 16Resource Selection Report February 14 2001 Demand Side Spring 2000 September 2000 consultant found the Company s process was sufficiently comprehensive and did not bias the results. On December 1 a final meeting with Company officers confirmed the recommendation of Coyote Springs IT, and that their proposals would not be Springs 2 as the supply-side resource selection, and 3 DSM bids. Updated Resource Plan I Criteria The development of the demand-side portion of the RFP and the process screening, evaluating and selecting proposals benefited from the contributions of several organizations. Substantial input was received from the staffs of the IPUC and the WUTC as well as representatives of the Northwest Energy Coalition, Washington Committee on Trade and Economic Development, Northwest Energy Efficiency Coalition and Northwest Energy Services. Modifications to early drafts of the DSM RFP were made to accommodate an expedited timeline without placing an undue burden on potential bidders. Several criteria that were considered unnecessary for the evaluation process were deferred until after the successful proposals were selected. These criteria, including proof of insurance, permitting and licensing and similar requirements, were moved to the due diligence and contracting phase to make the bid development process less onerous. Demand-Side Evaluation Matrix Development The DSM RFP team acted in concert with the supply-side evaluators to develop a clear and consistent means of evaluating all proposals received under the RFP. Six criteria were identified and weights for the point scores of each characteristic were agreed upon. Both supply and demand-side proposals were to have the same weights applied to price and non-price components of the proposals. The criteria arrived at by the DSM RFP team consisted of price (with a weight of 50 out of 100 points), resource dispatchability (15 points), ramping, measure life and persistence (10 points), customer economics and customer service (10 points), bidder credibility (10 points) and portfolio value (5 points). . A six-stage process for evaluating demand-side proposals was also established at this time. This process was separate from that of the evaluation of supply-side proposals, but the presence of key personnel in both the supply and demand-side teams, the use of the same timeline and the continual feedback regarding revealed avoided costs was established to ensure that an integrated supply and demand-side resource decision would be reached. Exh. 6/ Schedule 1 R. Lafferty Avista Corporation Page 14 of 16 Resource Selection Report February 14,2001 October - November 2000 The six-stage process established called was (1) screening of the proposals for completeness, (2) preliminary evaluation of each proposal by a seven-person team selected based upon the nature of the bid as well as establishing sufficient common personnel on each team to ensure consistency, (3) final evaluation side-by-side evaluation of all proposals by a team composed of all of the members of the preliminary evaluation teams, (4) negotiation of short-listed proposals completed by a single team, (5) the completion of due diligence on those proposals selected from the negotiation process and (6) establishing contracts with the selected proposals. At the bid opening it was determined at this time that, in addition to the seven demand-side proposals, one proposal submitted under the supply-side portion of the RFP would be evaluated by the DSM team. This supply-side proposal involved the acquisition to capacity from customer-owned generation more appropriately evaluated by those familiar with operations on the customer-side of the meter. The eight DSM proposals received were advanced to a three-person DSM screening team. Minor clarifications were required on three proposals, one proposal required the provision of a missing page and one proposal was deemed wholly deficient in substance. Fourteen questions which, if answered completely, would meet the minimum requirements upon which to base a preliminary evaluation was submitted to WSU. Five days later representatives of WSU indicated that they would not be phase. DSM Proposal Evaluation and Selection Seven preliminary evaluation teams were formed to study and evaluate the remaining proposals. Four of the seven members of each evaluation team were included on all evaluation teams, the other three members were selected to provide expertise specific to the individual proposal. Three of the four common members of all evaluation teams were also included on the supply-side evaluation team. During the preliminary evaluation each proposer was contacted by conference call at least once, and usually several times, to clarify the content of the proposal. Preliminary scoring of all proposals were completed at the end of this phase. All members of the preliminary evaluation teams staffed the final evaluation process. Initial meetings were convened to discuss capacity and energy proposals, followed by a final meeting of both categories of proposal. The final evaluation expanded on the characteristics of the proposals identified in the preliminary evaluation process. Based upon a discussion and ranking of each project for each of the six criteria a final overall scoring and ranking of proposals emerged. The last duty of the evaluation team was to determine which of the seven ranked proposals had the potential to be developed into Exh. 6/ Schedule 1 R. Lafferty Avista Corporation Page 15 of 16Resource Selection Report February 14,2001 December- February 2000 2001 successful ventures. In this final analysis the lowest ranking two proposals were deemed to be fatally flawed in one or more categories and were consequently eliminated from consideration. The five short-listed proposals were forwarded to a negotiation team. The composition of the negotiation team was such that all individuals were familiar with the proposal characteristics by virtue of their involvement in the evaluation process. Two of the members of the negotiation team were also involved in the supply-side evaluation and negotiation of proposals. Each bidder was contacted, usually on several occasions, by the negotiation team as a whole. Bidders were again given the opportunity to explain the characteristics of their proposal, respond to questions and to make voluntary modifications to their proposal. Upon the conclusion of the negotiations each modified proposal received a final evaluation and scoring by the negotiation team. Three of the five proposals under negotiation were selected as successful proposals responding to these questions. The proposal was consequently eliminated in the screening. Proposal Contracting and Implementation Those proposals that had been selected were advanced to due diligence. The due diligence team was originally composed of three and later (due to changes in job responsibilities) four individuals. During due diligence the bidder in being required to complete those portions of the RFP that were deferred in order to facilitate a streamlined bidding process (proof of insurance, permitting, licenses etc.). References, financial and other characteristics deemed critical to the proposal success will also be verified. Presuming that selected proposals are satisfactorily completed and critical characteristics verified in due diligence, the contracting phase will complete the RFP. During this phase the bidder and company will commit to contractual form the understandings made during the negotiation process. Implementation of the contracted proposals is expected to begin immediately upon the completion of the contract. Overall RFP Evaluation & ReDortin2 February 2001 RFP Evaluation The Company s documentation of its resource selection process has been compiled for future filing with the Washington and Idaho Commissions. The purpose of the evaluation is to chronicle the circumstances, events and the steps taken in conjunction with the Company s resource decision in 2000. Resource Selection Report February 14 2001 Exh. 6/ Schedule 1 R. Lafferty Avista Corporation Page 16 of 16 July 12, 2000 A VISTA CORPORATION 1997 Integrated Resource Plan Update I, Introduction: Avista s last Integrated Resource Plan (IRP) was filed with the Commission on August 25, 1997. That plan showed that the company was surplus for many years into the future. Since then many things have changed in the electric utility industry and for A vista. Therefore, the company has prepared this updated IRP to include those significant changes. As discussed later, this updated IRP will also serve as the basis for a Request- for-Proposal (RFP) that Avista plans to issue. The following infonnation has been presented at various T AC meetings and will become a integral part of the next IRP. ll. 1997 IRP Update ..... 1. Load Forecast The 2000 electric sales forecast was prepared during the summer of 1999. The forecast of finn sales to the core-market is one of the most critical elements and was presented and discussed at the T AC meeting. A vista Utilities utilizes econometric models to produce sales and customer forecasts. Econometric models are systems of algebraic equations which relate past economic growth and development in the geographic communities served electricity with past customer growth and consumption. The electrical energy forecast shows an annual average load of 1013 aMW in 2001 increasing to 1159 aMW in 2009. The peak forecast shows 1594 MW in 2001 with 1851 MW in the year 2009. The ten-year compound growth rate for residential usage is 2.3 percent, commercial is 3. percent and industrial is 1.6 percent. The overall total energy forecast has a compound growth rate of 1.9 percent. The annual load forecast numbers, for both peak and energy, through the year 2009 can be found on the Requirements and Resources tabulation sheet. 2, Resource Assessment Centralia The sale of the Centralia coal-fired plant resulted in the loss of 201 MW of capacity and 177 aMW of annual energy from Avista s resource portfolio. The company entered into a short-tenn contract with TransAlta, the new owners of Centralia, to replace a majority of the generation lost with the sale of the plant. The tenn of this contract starts in July 2000 and extends through December 2003. Exh. 6/ Schedule 2 R. Lafferty Avista Corporation Page 1 of 84 Hydro Relicensing Avista Corp. was granted by the FERC on Feb. 23 , 2000, a new 45-year license to operate the Noxon Rapids and Cabinet Gorge hydroelectric projects on the lower Clark Fork River. Thelicensing effort culminates seven years of planning and consultation, utilizing a unique collaborative approach that produced one of the most successful ever hydro relicensing efforts. The application to relicense was submitted by Avista Corp., Feb. 18, 1999, and contained a comprehensive settlement agreement with 27 signatories. This landmark agreement ensured the continued economical operation of the two plants while providing a variety of enhancements to natural resources of the project area. A vista retainsnearly all the valuable load following and peaking capability of the two projects while providing early implementation of protection, mitigation, and enhancement measures to benefit native fish species, recreation opportunities, continued protection of cultural resources, wildlife populations and water quality. Avista will spend approximately $4.7 million annually with a significant expenditure eannarked for enhancing bull trout populations. Contract Sales and Purchases While there has been a lot of wholesale contract activity since the last report, the terms of the more recent contracts have tended to be relatively short. It is interesting to note that most of the purchase and sale agreements tenninate by the year 2003 , except some of the contracts with BPA and exchanges. There are only three sale contracts that extend beyond the year 2003. Those are the PacifiCorp, PGE and Snohomish PUD contracts. *PacifiCorp and the company entered into a ten year summer capacity sale for the period June 16, 1994 through September 15 2003 (with PacifiCorp option to extend for up to five years). The company delivers 150 MW of summer capacity with energy purchased at 25 percent load factor based on variable prices. *Portland General Electric is purchasing from the company 150 MW of capacity through December 31 2016. The energy associated with the capacity deliveries has to be returned within 168 hours. *Snohomish PUD purchases 100 MW of firm capacity with a minimum amount of finD energy at 50 percent load factor from the company. The contract ends September 2006. Avista also has. a large cogeneration facility (potlatch Forest Industry) in its service territory that entered into a ten-year contract with the company which tenninates at the end of 2001. The power received from Potlatch has a maximum capacity of 59 MW and average energy of 55 aMW. Hydro Upgrades In 1999, the company completed the program to replace all four runners at Long Lake, which increased the capability from 72.8 MW to 88 MW. In the planning stages are turbine runner replacements and generator rewinds for three units at Cabinet Gorge and two units at Noxon Rapids. There is also a possibility of an Upper Falls turbine runner replacement and generator rewinds for three units at Little Falls. Exh. 6/ Schedule 2 R. Lafferty Avista Corporation Page 2 of 84 3, Reserves Analysis A reasonable level of planning reserves helps the company ensure adequate generating capacity during periods of extreme weather or unexpected plant outages. Avista s planning reserves are not based on the size or types of its resources. Avista s capacity reserves include components for cold weather, generator-forced outages and contingencies such as river freeze-up at hydroelectric plants. The company s planning reserves are based on 10 percent increase in peak loads or one day in twenty years and an additional 90 MW to account for river freeze ups and a portion of the forced outage reserves. This provides Avista with about 15 percent reserves based on forecasted peak loads. The forecasted peak loads are based on the average expected cold day. For example, thepeak for January 2000 was estimated at 1557 MW (at 8 degrees F) but we would expect the peak to be 1713 MW on the extreme day (-10 degrees F). Avista s operating reserves are considered a pan of the company s planning reserve numbers. The operating reserves are 5 percent of hydro generation and 7 percent of thennal and are what we are legally required to carry under regional criteria. 4, Re-dispatch Study As the company contemplates the addition of one or more resources to its portfolio it will be faced with a different resource stack and fuel mix. The new resources will have an impact on the resource dispatch sequence because of the fuel supply and marginal costs. The company is using PROSYM to model its resources, to meet its load requirements on an hourly basis, and to assess the dispatch requirements and compatibility of new resources used in conjunction with existing resources, both hydro and thermal. PROSYM is a commercially available production cost model used to perform electric planning and operational studies. Due to its hourly chronological design and its capability to accurately dispatch the company s flexible hydro system, we use PROSYM to perform dispatch analyses of various generation sources. A key point to remember is that PROSYM is a production cost model. The resource inputs include machine characteristics, fuel costs, and variable operation and maintenance costs. The model does not calculate the total cost of the resource. After the dispatch information is obtained from PROSYM, traditional economic analyses of each resource option must be performed. An example of a PROSYM run with a new combined cycle combustion turbine modeled into the company s system is shown in Appendix A. 5, Long Term Natural Gas and Electric Price Forecasts There is much uncertainty in the natural gas and electric price forecasts. Price volatility has increased recently given extremely high prices in the daily and forward markets. The company knows that there will be periods of high prices and periods of low prices as the price curves fluctuate based on demand and supply criteria. It is the company s goal to provide and use a forecast that is reasonable in its start point and escalation for the long tenn. A vista knnw~ there A vista Corp - 1997 IRP Update Exh. 6/ Schedule 2 R. Lafferty Avista Corporation Page 3 of 84 will be variations both high and low in the future as the company forecasts theSe energy prices.The forecasts reflect the best information that is available at the time the forecast is made. Key to any "buy or build" decision is an understanding of the future prices for electricity and natural gas. Because natural gas generation is a significant contributor to the cost of operating such a facility, the future prices for this underlying commodity cannot be overlooked. discussed above, there is uncertainty in both the near-term and long-tenn natural gas price forecasts. A vista therefore relies on a set of forward. predictions it believes account for a range of possible future outcomes. The Natural Gas Price Forecast The price forecasts developed for this update build on the natural gas forecast contained in Avista s forthcoming July, 2000 Natural Gas Integrated Resource Plan (Gas IRP). Contained inthe Gas IRP is a base forecast of northwest natural gas prices, as detailed in the median or base case forecast shown below. Northwest Natural Gas Price Forecasts 2001-2033 nominal dollars -a .... C'I t-- C'I ........ C'I .... t-- .... C'I C'I C'I C'I t-- C'I As detailed in the graph in the base case, natural gas prices rise from an average annual value of $2.52 in 2001 to $6.35 per decathenn in 2025, the end of the Gas IRP forecast. On average, this equates to a 4.1 percent annual change. The Gas IRP does not analyze natural gas price sensitivity at the wholesale level and ends its forecast in 2025. Therefore to represent low and high forecasts, the base case escalation rate was adjusted downward and upward by 1 percent annually, respectively. Additionally, to provide a 30-year forecast beginning in 2004, the rate of change in 2025 was continued through 2033. the low case, the cost per decathenn rises only to $7.12. In the high case, the price increases to $12.88. This compares to a base forecast in 2033 of $9.60 per decatherm. Exh. 6/ Schedule 2 R. Lafferty Avista Corporation Page 4 of 84 The Electricity Price Forecast With the scenarios for future natural gas prices established, electricity price forecasts was estimated using a "spark spread." Spark spreads identify the heat rate expressed in Btu/kWh that, when applied to a natural gas price, equate an equivalent price of electricity. For example on June 8, 2000 the forward price for July 2000 natural gas was $4.13 per decatherm. The July 2000 Mid-C forward price was approximately $110 per MWh. The spark spread for Julyequated to 26,635 Btu/kWh. The average spark spread through calendar year 2000, again using quotes obtained on June 8 2000, is 21 920 Btu/kWh. Looking forward, the calendar year 2001 spark spread is approximately 17 300 Btu/kWh. To convert the natural gas price forecasts into electricity forecasts, varying spark spread values were considered. The short-term spark spreads inherent in today s forward markets appear high given historical levels. Between 1997 and 1999, the spark spread varied from a low of 7,800 to nearly 17,000 Btu/kWh. To represent the varying spark spread levels A vista considered three spark spreads of ten thirteen, and fifteen thousand Btu/kWh applied to the three natural gas price forecasts. At tenthousand BtulkWh with base case gas prices, electricity prices rise from approximately $24 per MWh in 2004, to $38 pet MWh in 2013, to $96 per MWh in 2033. The average annual nominal price increase equals 4.8 percent. In real terms, the equivalent values are $22, $27, and $31, equal to a 1.1 percent annual increase. Where the spark spread is assumed to be fifteen thousand BtulkWh, our high case estimate electricity prices equal $39 per MWh in 2004. Prices rise to $61 in 2013 and then to $153 in 2033. The average annual price escalation again is 4.8 percent nominal. In real tenns, prices rise from $36 in 2004 to $49 in 2033, for an annual average real escalation of approximately 1.1percent. Avista s base case spark spread forecast is thirteen thousand Btu/kWh. At this level, electricity prices rise from approximately $32 per MWh in 2004 to $50 per MWh in 2013, to $125 per MWh in 2033 using the base case gas forecast. In real terms, the equivalent values are $29, $35 and $40 per MWh in 2004 2013, and 2033, respectively. The average nominal increase equals8 percent. In real terms, the forecast rises 1.1 percent annually. Using the low natural gas price forecast and the base case spark spread, electricity prices rise more slowly at 3.8 percent annually, or 0.1 percent real. In 2004 the annual average electricity price equals $31 per MWh. By 2033 the price equals $93 per MWh. With the high natural gas forecast, electricity prices rise at an average annual rate of 5.8 percent nominal and 2.0 percent real. Forecasted prices increase from $32 per MWh in 2004 to $167 per MWh in 2033. Exh. 6/ Schedule 2 R. Lafferty A vista Corporation Page 5 of 84 The following table describes the three electricity price forecasts, including forward market prices prior to August 2003.

Some are more suitable than others depending on capital cost, dispatchability, accessibility, operating experience environmental considerations, and other impacts. All resource options will be evaluated including energy efficiency measures. Probably the preferred resource scenario will be a combination of resource options. Some of the options that have been discussed and are under consideration are: Build a generating resource Purchase existing or new generation assets Complete system upgrades at generating facilities Negotiate a long-tenD power purchase agreement Buy in the short-tenD wholesale market Purchase the output of a generating or cogeneration facility Develop additional energy efficiency and DSM programs . Buy energy efficiency through third party developers Customer load dropping is also being considered although it is not generally considered a resource. Retail load that can be interrupted or curtailed under specific circumstances can free- up temporary capacity and energy. And as such, the company plans to explore those possibilities through contract negotiations with large customers. The initial screening of resource costs uses data from the Power Council, actual sites being . constructed or just recently constructed, and infonnation received from national publications. Avista Corp - 1997 IRP Update Exh. 6/ Schedule 2 R. Lafferty A vista Corporation Page 6 of 84 Attached are the nominallevelized costs in 1999 dollars of many supply-side resource types made available by the Power Council (see Appendix B). Nuclear plant costs are not on the list, although we know (from previous Power Council studies) that nuclear total cost is above 100 mills/kWh or ranked on the high end of the Power Council' geothermal projects. Biomass plants are also not on the list except for land fill gas and biogasification plants. Theanalysis show that biomass plants have total costs in the range of the low geothennal costs orabout 70 to 80 mills /kWh. Many of these resources have costs that are very site specific, especially the renewables like wind and geothermal. Avista would need to do a very detailed cost analysis based on a particular site location in order to assess ultimate viability of these options. Avista is constantly assessing the markets in order to buy and sell power on an hourly and daily basis. Most utilities and marketers don t want to commit to long-term sales due to theuncertainty in the markets. At this time other utilities in the Northwest find themselves in the same situation as A vista so a long-term commitment from them for a power supply would not be very likely. We have included in the proposed RFP a provision to bid to Avista a long-term power supply contract. Avista s energy efficiency programs are evaluated in detail on a trimesterly basis and submitted to the company s External Energy Efficiency (Triple-E) Board for review. These reports cover the full menu of standard practice tests and descriptive statistics and are disaggregated by customer segment and technology. These reports are the basis for company program management efforts as well as providing a foundation for meaningful oversight by the Triple- Board. The company has also assessed the potential for enhancements to specific programs to meet utility resource needs and will be assessing the potential for capacity and peak-energy targeted programs in the near future. Please see Appendix C for further information. 7, Screening Results Avista has historically planned and developed various resource types. The company hasexperience with hydro, coal, natural gas, and biomass generating plants and demand-side resources. This operating experience gives the company valuable information that can be used in its resource evaluations. A vista needs a resource that can provide additional benefits in support of the existing generation system. What is needed is a resource that can be dispatched, follow load, and provide a capacitycomponent. In other words, as an entity with a control area, the company needs resources that are dispatchable and meets energy and capacity requirements under a variety of conditions. A natural gas fired electric generation plant is one example of a resource that could meet those needs stated above. Natural gas plants can be built relatIvely quickly with relatively low capital Exh. 6 Schedule 2 R. Lafferty A vista Corporation Page 7 of 84 costs and discharge less pollutants into the air than other fossil fuel plants. As shown in Appendix B , the Northwest Power Planning Council costs for natural gas fired generation projects range from approximately 41 mills to 43 mills. At this point in time the following resources would not pass the initial screening. The following costs are nominallife-cyc1e, levelized costs. Nuclear: Costs are over the 100 mills per kilowatt-hour range. The total cost and the lack of public acceptance make this resource option unacceptable. Coal: Costs are 80 to 90 mills. The total cost and cost uncertainty in air quality issues make this resource option unacceptable. Wind: Costs are 60 to 80 mills. There are indications that costs are declining but our studies show there are not favorable sites in our service tenitory so transmission costs would have to be added. Because wind is intermittent the resource would have to be discounted for lack of capacity component. This would make this resource option unacceptable. Geothennal: Costs are 80 to 100 mills making this resource option unacceptable. Solar: Costs are over 240 mills making this resource option unacceptable. These costs are presented for general comparison purposes. The company will solicit resource bids from the market in an upcoming Request-for-Proposals (RFP). The company is hoping for innovative bids from project developers. The RFP bids will be evaluated against the infonnation that has been gathered both internally and externally. 8. Load and Resource Summary General Included is Avista s annual Requirements and Resources (Load and Resource Summary) that shows the company s load and resource position on an annual basis for the next ten years (see Appendix D). It is dated June 1,2000 and will be the same one used in the 2000 IRP. The peak column is the January peak (the highest forecasted peak for the year) and the average column is the annual 12-month average for the year. The resource peak numbers are what could be expected as maximum capacity outputs during January. The hydro peak and energy numbers are from the final regulation done by the Northwest Power Pool and reflect the reservoir levels in January per the hydro regulation study (one-year critical period, 1936-37 water). The average energy numbers are the expected 12-month averages for the loads, resources and contracts. All the requirements are shown at the top of the page. Most of the purchases and sales contracts end by the year 2004. The peak and average forecasted loads are shown on line 1 labeled System Load. Line 17 Reserves are A vista s planning reserves and are part of the total Requirements (as described in Section 3). The Resource section is comprised of the resources and purchase contracts. Line 19 shows the system hydro and line 20 is the contract hydro from the mid-Columbia PUD projects (with critical water conditions). The mid-Columbia numbers decrease due to the Priest Rapids contract ending in 2005 and the Wanapum contract ending in 2009. Avista is hopeful that a contract extension can be negotiated with Grant County PUD. Lines 24 and 25 are the company s existing Avista Corp - 1997 IRP Update Exh. 6/ Schedule 2 R. Lafferty A vista Corporation Page 8 of 84 simple-cycle combustion turbines, and lines 33 and 34 are the expected thennal generation output from Kettle Falls and Colstrip. Line 29 shows the BP A residential exchange contract and the 47 MW flat delivery of power to the company from BP A. There is no dispatchability or flexibility with this contract. Although this contract has not been signed~ A vista feels it is finD enough to be included. Line 44 is the Surplus (Deficit) numbers calculated by subtracting the Total Requirements from the Total Resource numbers. In the year 2004 Avista is 287 MW deficit on peak and 318 aMW deficit on energy under critical water planning criteria. Resource Flexibility Flexible generation resources are a key component to meet the requirements of Avista customers. As depicted in the charts on pages 8 and 9 in Appendix E, A vista experiences load changes of 100 MW or more during several hours of each day. Loads must be ramped up and down under a variety of seasonal and load conditions. In order to meet the load, flexible resources (Cabinet Gorge, Noxon Rapids, Long Lake, Mid Columbia contract hydro, and the Rathdrum Combustion turbines) are dispatched. Even with these resources, A vista still must purchase peak energy products to meet customer demand during different times. The market today tends to offer standard heavy load hour and light load hour products that do not meet load shaping or following needs. 2004 Study A detailed tabulation of the load and resource requirements study of the year 2004 is also attached (see Appendix E). We chose the year 2004 for an in-depth study because, as mentioned above, many of the larger supply and requirements contracts have ended and future requirements change (for the most part) due to load growth. This study is shown in two parts. The first study shows on and off peak loads and resource requirements monthly under critical and nonna! hydro conditions. The second study goes into even further detail. We created an hourly Surplus-Deficiency duration Curve for the year 2004 using PROSYM to gain the following infonnation. By using the Northwest Power Pool's sixty year hydro generation study for our system, PROSYM runs 720 (sixty years X 12 months/year) hydro scenarios into the forecast net system load, all known contracts, and existing resources. The infonnation gained from this model output shows the company s resource requirements to meet load under many different hydro conditions. This duration curve will be used to analyze how new resource additions will "fit" into the company s requirements without any affect from market conditions. As stated before, standard economic modeling must be penonned afterdispatch infonnation is gained from PROSYM modeling. Load growth expectations based on the forecasted methodologies are explained under Section 1. Avista doesn t expect drastic changes in our load beyond the nonnalload growth that has been experienced. But the future is uncertain and Avista needs to be flexible enough to handle unforeseen changes. For example, the company could lose load by having Avista s larger retail customers install cogeneration, like WSU or Potlatch deciding to serve their own load from existing generating facili ties. Or if partial deregulation was to come to our region, A vista could pick up some industrial loads thereby increasir g the load requirements. Avista Corp -1997 IR.P Update Exh. 6 / Schedule 2 R.

Lafferty A vista C'.ornorJltion Page 36 of 84 Avista Utilities Triple-E Report March 2000 Introduction This is the second Triple-E Report produced in fulfillment of Avista Corporation s commitment at the time of the most recent Schedule 90 Tariff approval. This report covers quantitative results for the December , . 1999 to March 31 , 2000 trimester. It includes costs, energy savings, cost-effectiveness and descriptive statistics, Energy Efficiency Tariff Rider balances, measurement and evaluation (M&E) activities, policyupdates, and large project disclosures. Given that much of the basic methodology was covered in the prior report, we have excluded that discussion from this report. We are distributing an electronic version of the previous report for the reader's reference. In place of the methodology discussion, this report includes approximately three times as many tables than were present in the last report. This is partially to facilitate comparison against the previous August 1 to November 30, 1999 trimester report. but this report also contains a more detailed disaggregation of our impact by jurisdiction and rateclass. Unless otherwise noted, the analytical methodology employed is unchanged from the prior report. This is the first report where the SaJesLogix database has been used. Data quality has improved in several areas of this process , including the incorporation of additional information fields and custom reports. Although the format of the June 2000 Triple-E Board meeting does not include discussion of this report, we would appreciate the opportunity to meet with any Triple-E Board member interested in the full detail of these calculations, either individually or in small groups. Page 1 Exh. 6/ Schedule 2 R. Lafferty A vista Corporation Page 37 of 84 Avista Utilities Triple-E Report March 2000 General Analytical Notes This section has been included to provide insight into analytical details that affect the results of this report. This includes relevant information regarding the treatment of raw data that influences the analysis. Database and Non-Database Projects All Avista Corporation energy efficiency projects can be roughly divided into two categories; those that are tracked on a project-by-project basis through the Sa/esLogix database and those that are handled outside the database. Non-database projects include the Resource Management Partnership Program (RMPP), the Limited Income program and the Natural Gas Awareness Campaign. The analyses of these programs are brought into the report only after a custom evaluation of their costs and benefits are completed. Database projects are tracked individually through the Sa/esLogix database. Each of the characteristics relevant to the analysis, such as energy savings, non-energy benefits, utility revenue impact and customer cost, are specified based upon each project's unique characteristics. Database Project Details Projects tracked through the database include all projects that are individually reviewed. as well as three measures that are analyzed in mass (due to the similarity of many of the project characteristics). Projectsreviewed in mass are comprised of the following measures: 1) VendinaM/$EFfM VendingM/$ER is a control mechanism used to reduce the energy usage of cold drink vending machines. A prescriptive analysis of non-energy benefits resulting from VendingM/$ER installations revealed that a significant portion (20%) of the participant benefit from this measure accrue in the form of non-energy (maintenance) savings. These results have been incorporated into the analysis. Since this is a control device, benefits and costs accumulated through VendingM/$ER are allocated to the Controls technology. 2) lED Exit Sians A detailed analysis of lED exit sign annual energy savings was conducted in 1999, with the result being a revision from 240 kWh per sign to 200 kWh per sign. This was primarily based upon a higherinventory of compact fluorescents in the existing inventory than was anticipated. The analysis team has also completed a prescriptive analysis of non-energy benefits resulting from the installation of lED exit signs. The results of this analysis indicate that most (83%) of the participant benefit from this measure accrue in the form of non-energy (maintenance) savings. These results have been incorporated into the analysis. lED exit sign projects were incentivized as New Technologies. such. benefits and costs accumulated through this program are allocated to the New Technologies measure. 3) lED Traffic Siona's The energy savings from LED traffic signals are tracked by jurisdiction and are incorporated into the analysis. This measure has also been the subject of a non-energy benefit analysis by the analysis Page 2 Exh. 6 / Schedule 2 R. Lafferty Avista Corporation Page 38 of 84 Avista Utilities Triple-E Report March 2000 team. The results of this analysis indicate that a significant portion (42%) of the participant benefit from this measure accrue in the form of non-energy (maintenance) savings. These results have been incorporated into the analysis. LED traffic signal projects were incentivized as New Technologies. such, benefits and casts accumulated through this program are allocated to the New Technologies measure. All Other Proiects All projects tracked within SaJesLogix aside from those fitting the categories above, are individuallyanalyzed for their impacts. All characteristics relevant to cost-effectiveness calculations and descriptive statistics are based upon project specific circumstances. Non-Database Project Details Resource Manaaement Partnershio Proaram (RMPP) This program derives resource savings by placing resource managers in individual school districts. Theresources affected include electric, natural gas (and other energy), water, sewer and solid waste. For themast part, the nan-energy resource impacts occur early during the resource manager's work with the school district. During this particular trimester there were not any significant non-energy resource savings. Energy savings, however, do require the ongoing presence of a district resource manager and do not degrade as much as non-energy resource savings during the period of time that the resource manager is present. The billing analysis captures the electric and natural gas savings. Non-utility energy impacts are captured on a site-specific basis. The billing analysis for the RMPP program has, over time, resulted in severalpolicies dealing with such contingencies as new construction at an existing school site, the treatment of portable buildings, the aggregation or disaggregation of loads across multiple meters, and so on. Projects for which the customer receives a direct incentive at a school site where a resource manager is present are removed from the metered savings calculation and credited to the technology that the direct incentive applies toward. For example. the savings from lighting projects at schools are removed from thebilled energy savings and credited as an impact of the lighting technology. All billed energy savings remaining after these specific projects have been removed are attributed to resource management activities. The resource management energy savings can then be characterized by three components; (1) behavioral, such as tuming off the lights as necessary, (2) operational, such as utilizing existing controls or modifying the dispatch of end-uses and (3) hardwired measures that, for one reason or another, did not receive a direct incentive. In recognition of the short life of the behavioral and operational measures, incalculating the energy savings for any particular period of time it is assumed that 50% of the energy savings in the prior year and 25% of the energy savings two years preceding were readapted. This effect substantially increases the number of first-year kWh claimed by the program, but it also results in a weighted average life of only four years for these billed energy savings. At this point we don t have enough data an school districts that have discontinued their resource manager program to verify the accuracy of the measure persistence figures being used. Limited Income The Limited Income program obtains energy savings- through weatherization improvements and electric to gas conversions (space heat and domestic hot water) for qualified electric utility customers. These Page ~Exh. 6/ Schedule 2 R. Lafferty Avista Corporation Page 39 of 84 Avista Utilities Triple-E Report March 2000 savings enter the analysis by applying the results of a detailed billing analysis study completed in 1999 to the water heat and space heat conversions claimed through the program. The weatherization savings are based upon engineering estimates specific to the dwelling. Since the vast majority (99%) of the energy savings in this segment is from fuel-conversions. this has been the focus of the measurement and evaluation efforts to date. The Limited Income program also funds structural and mechanical repairs to qualified homes, subject to a cap. if they are necessary to ensure the persistence of the energy measures installed, or if they are necessary on a health and human safety basis. It is assumed the benefits derived from these repairs have a non-energy benefit commensurate with their costs. In this particular trimester no costs associated with these repairs were reported to the analysis team. will be following up on these impacts in more detail in the next trimester to determine if expenses had been incurred that were not captured as non-energy benefits. Since these programs are operated in conjunction with community action program (CAP) agencies as part of their overall offerings to this customer segment. the utility costs of the programs are fairly minimal. This leveraging strategy has substantially contributed to a cost-effectiveness higher than would be expected out of this segment. To clarify the meaning of the various tables reporting on this program, the customer cost is equal to the utility incentive for the limited income programs because aU costs associated with energy savings are paid for through the incentive. Natural Gas Awareness Camcaian (NGAC) The effects of the NGAC are incorporated into the analysis based upon the most recent information on actual residential conversions of space heating, water heating, clothes dryers, ovens and ranges. The first 1 000 space heating conversions are excluded on the basis that these customers are part of the natural adoption in our service territory. This is the only program that excludes the energy savings of free-riders (or natural adopters). The savings for this program will be adjusted when recently completed survey information is subjected to our energy savings analysis and verification. Non-Quantifiable Non-Energy Impacts The analytical group has been working to further develop means of quantifying, where possible, and identifying, where quantification is unreasonable, the non-energy impacts of our projects. The reason for this is twofold; (1) to more accurately represent the cost-effectiveness of the projects and (2) to provide management information about the overall benefits of our programs. This information will be used to refine the marketing of energy efficiency technologies. At present our quantification of non-energy effects has been limited to two primary components; (1) modifying the capital cost of projects to reflect differences in end-use equipment life and (2) incorporating the maintenance savings. The quantified maintenance savings is almost exclusively related to lighting projects. The non-quantifiable value of these non-energy benefits must be taken into consideration when interpreting much of this analysis. and in particular the TRC test results. We are endeavoring to improve our ability to identify and quantify these non-energy benefits in the future. One of the changes implemented to address this issue is detailed under the Notable Projects. Disclosures and Policy Update section of this report. Page 4 Exh. 6/ Schedule 2 R. Lafferty A vista Corporation Page 40 of 84 Avista Utilities Triple-E Report March 2000 Quantitative Results The following contains descriptions of the methodologies used for completion of the cost-effectiveness analysis and descriptive statistics for the December 1 , 1999 to March 31 , 2000 trimester. Observations noted in the course of performing this analysis have been noted as well. Allocation of Utility Costs This allocation methodology is essentially unchanged from our previous report. The raw data for utility non-incentive costs comes in the form of actual expenses and journal entries incurred by Tariff Rider accounts. The raw data for direct incentive costs comes in the form of accrual- based expenses, drawn from the SalesLogixdatabase. While non-incentive costs represent real expenditures, incentives are de-rated in the same manner as kWh, therms, etc. As such, incentivesapplied to projects in the Contracted phase are accounted for at 75%, those applied to projects in the Construction phase are accounted for at 95%, and those applied to Completed projects are accounted for at 100%. This methodology was adopted this trimester in an effort to more closely align expenditures with committed funds. Each expenditure is incurred through an account number specific to the appropriate customer segment to an "old" program (prior to our shift to the customer segment model), or to general implementation or M&E. In order to attribute all costs to customer segments and technologies , three allocations must be made. The first allocation assigns the expenses associated with the old programs to customer segments. Next, the general implementation and general M&E expense are allocated to customer segments. Last the utility non-incentive expenses associated with, or allocated to, each customer segment are allocated to individual technologies within that segment. The overall allocation process is heavily dependent upon the judgement of the individuals performing the allocation. The meaningfulness of these allocations is handicapped by the joint cost nature of many expenditures. An audit, site visit, or marketing effort is generally targeted towards multiple technologies. Consequently there is the potential for technologies which are cost-effective contributors to the overall portfolio to be cost-ineffective as a result of being burdened with a disproportionate amount of allocated general costs. This should be considered when reviewing both cost-effectiveness ratios and net cost- effectiveness results. In our previous Triple-E Report we noted that the proportion of utility costs allocated to one of the general categories seemed excessive. The general implementation and general M&E categories were only to be used if a cost could not be reasonably allocated to one or more individual customer segments. We reiterated the need for accurate reporting of these costs to the staff on several occasions after that point. The net result was an insignificant reduction in the proportion of costs charged to general (27.7% to 27.5%). We will continue to follow up on this task, but our tentative interpretation is that the allocation to general costs is appropriate in spite of the initial appearances. Refer to Tables 1-4 for utility costs allocated across programs, customer segments, and technologies. Page 5 Exh. 6/ Schedule 2 R.

Pa g e 9 Avista Utilities Triple-E Report March 2000 Treatment of De-Rated Project Results As previously mentioned, projects in the Contracted and Construction phases are credited with 75% and 95% of the engineering estimates. This applies to kWh savings, therm savings, direct incentives , non-energy benefits, and customer costs. Energy Savings During this trimester Avista participated in over 12.3 million kWh of energy savings, which resulted in an increase of approximately 137 000 therms of natural gas usage. This represents the progress of projects within the .pipeline" of the five sequential phases during the trimester. As always, the net therm savings incorporate the additional therm usage of electric to natural gas conversions. The largest therm contributors this trimester were the Natural Gas Awareness Campaign and the conversion component of the Limited Income program. Avista Corporation s participation in the Northwest Energy Efficiency Alliance is within this report for purposes of calculating utility costs, but has been excluded for cost-effectiveness purposes. This is due to the lack of definable energy savings at this point in time. During this trimester, NEEA accounted for 17.2% of our utility costs. These calculations of energy savings do not include any estimates of free-riders, free-drivers , or anymarket transformation effects. At this point it is unclear how these effects will influence the total energy savings of the portfolio. We will be investigating this question in the near future in compliance with our Idaho general ratecase order. Refer to Tables and 6 for the allocations of electric and therm savings (increases) across customer segments and technologies. Page 10 Exh. 6 / Schedule 2 R.

Pa g e 1 1 Avista Utilities Triple-E Report March 2000 Customer Costs and Non-Energy Benefits A summary of customer costs incurred to achieve the energy savings portion of the projects captured in this report has been included. The raw customer costs have been modified to exclude non-electric components of customer projects, arid to appropriately match the measure life of base-case and high- efficiency altematives. Customer cost figures listed are also not adjusted for direct incentives granted by Avista Corporation. These customer costs substantially affect the total resource cost test and the participant test. Customer costs amount to approximately two-thirds of the total resource and participant costs. The non-energy benefit data reflects the quantifiable non-energy benefits accruing to the energy efficiency projects. To date these quantifiable non-energy benefits are limited to maintenance savings inherent in lED exit sign, lED traffic signal VendingM/$ER, and non-residential lighting projects. We are continuing our research to quantify other non-energy benefits such as productivity, safety, retail sales and so forth. To date we have not found a sufficient body of research that would reasonably substantiate the numerical claims that have been made in these areas. These as yet non-quantifiable non-energy benefits are clearly major influences on the adoption of energy efficiency measures and on the cost-effectiveness of our portfolio, and they are actively used in marketing these measures to our customers. We are reviewing the database projects in greater depth to obtain information about increased production and other relatively easily quantifiable values. We will also be working to better identify what non-energy benefits accrue to what measures, even if those benefits are non-quantifiable. Refer to Tab/es and B for the allocations of customer costs and non-energy benefits across customer segments and technologies. Page 12 Exh. 6/ Schedule 2 R.

Pa g e 1 3 Avista Utilities Triple-E Report March 2000 Cost-Effectiveness and Descriptive Statistics The following tables contain cost-effectiveness statistics for this trimester for all four standard practice tests. Also included are net benefits for each test by customer segment and technology. Net benefits have been included to give additional insight into the significance of each segment and technology. The Total Resource Cost (TRC) ratio is essentially unchanged from the previous trimester" (1. to 1.11). It is too early to ascertain if we were correct in our expectation that TRC cost- effectiveness would increase as the one-time costs incurred in the August 1 to November 30 1999 trimester were completed. As of yet, we do not have enough history of calculating cost- effectiveness on a trimesterly basis to determine if the normal variation could conceal a meaningful increase in cost-effectiveness. The Utility Cost Test (UCT) ratio has fallen significantly from the previous trimester (2.11 to 1.11). As mentioned previously, we are uncertain as to the normal variation that we should expect when cost-effectiveness is calculated on a trimesterly basis, but it seems unlikely that a change of this magnitude is within normal variation. It is more likely that it is the result of the imposition of the new Schedule 90 Tariff and the higher incentives contained therein. Supporting this hypothesis is the fact that the proportion of .old programs. (those projects being completed under the old tariff) has fallen significantly from the previous trimester. It is possible that the decline in the UCT ratio will continue into the next trimester, as the last of the .old programs. reach completion and the project pipeline is composed completely of the higher incentive projects being completed under the new tariff. If this is the case, a management review of the portfolio would be warranted to address the issue of identifying what the minimum acceptable UCT ratio is and how the portfolio can be managed to achieve it. The participant test ratio has moved from 2.98 to 4.46 in the last trimester. This increase lends a certain amount of corroboration to the theory that the UCT ratio is falling as a result of increased utility direct incentives. It may also imply that the freEHidership ratio has improved as a result of offering enhanced in~entives (the larger the incentive and the higher the participant ratio the more likely it is that the program made the difference in adoption of the measure). The tiering of the incentives based upon simple payback may further enhance that effect. These interpretations will be incorporated into the free-ridership analysis that the Company was requested to perform under the recently completed Idaho ratecase order. This may impact the timing of the study. Having established the hypothesis that the new programs appear to be impacting the free-ridership ratio. it would be necessary to segment .old. programs from .new programs to develop an accurate view of free-ridership. The non-participant test ratio (also called the rate impact measure) experienced a slight decline from 0.44 to 0.33. As had been previously indicated, Avista is mathematically guaranteed to fail this test (have a ratio below 1.0) as long as our rates are above our avoided costs. The Avista response has been to offer a broad enough program portfolio to provide every customer the opportunity to directly or indirectly benefit from our portfolio. The meaning of a non-participant test is diminished as these program benefits become more widely distributed. Comparison to the previous trimester indicates a slight increase in the customer cost per kWh (18 cents/kWh to 20 cents/kWh). A change of this magnitude is likely to be within the normal variation of a trimesterly report. The utility implementation cost also increased from 7 cents/kWh to 10 cents/kWh. This is attributable to the reduction in energy savings from 14.2 million kWh to 12.3 million kWh. The utility implementation costs actually fell from the previous trimester. Page 14 Exh. 6/ Schedule 2 R. Lafferty Avista Corporation Page 50 of 84 Avista Utilities Triple-E Report March 2000 We have added a measure of incentive cost per kWh to assist in diagnosing the UCT ratio issue. as previously discussed. The increase in incentive cost per kWh from five cents to seven cents reflects the most recent change to the Schedule 90 Tariff. Refer to Tables and 10 for summaries of cost-effectiveness for all four standard practice tests by customer segments and technologies. Refer to Tables 11 and 12 for summaries of net benefits for all four standard practice tests by customer segments and technologies. Refer to Table 13 for further details on the calculation of the cost-effectiveness rations. as well as some useful descriptive statistics. Page 15 Exh. 6 Schedule 2 R.

Page Exh. 6/ Schedule 2 R, Lafferty A vista Corporation Page 54 of 84 Avista Utilities Triple-E Report March 2000 Energy Efficiency Tariff Rider Balance Calculations The methodology of this calculation has not changed since the previous Triple-E Report. Oneerror, the omission of the effect of the one-month lag specified in the 1994 Accounting Guidelines amounting to $10 949, has been corrected. In the last twelve months Avista has: spent $2.2 million more than it has collected as Tariff Rider revenues ($1.4 million in Washington, $0.8 million in Idaho) incurred expenditures in excess of rider revenues by 47% (41% in Washington, 64% inIdaho) reduced the Tariff Rider balance by $1.9 million ($1.2 million in Washington, $0.7 million in Idaho) cut the balance by 45% (41% in Washington, 53% in Idaho) and incorporated within the balance $318 000 of interest assessments ($215 000 Washington$103,000 Idaho). This progress towards Avista Corporation s objective of reducing the balance through funding cost-effective energy efficiency may somewhat overstate the progress to date due to a disproportionate amount of NEEA invoices paid during this moving average; However, eventaking this into consideration, it does represent a significant increase in energy efficiency activity on the part of the Company. The TRC cost-effectiveness during this trimester indicates that it is not only an increase in expenditures, but that the incremental expenditures do have energy savings commensurate with their costs. Refer to Table 14 for the most recent update to our tariff rider balance calculation. Page 19 Exh. 6/ Schedule 2 R.

Pa g e 2 0 Avista Utilities Triple-E Report March 2000 Analysis Measurement and Evaluation Summary For this reporting period, seven projects and programs were selected for in-depth review. Thefollowing summaries highlight the findings of each review. For confidentiality reasons, customer names have been omitted except in the case of governmental organizations. More detailed reports are available upon request. The analysis team continually endeavors to present to the Triple-E Board an accurate portrayal of Avista Utilities' energy efficiency activities. Comments and suggestions regarding both the content and format of this report are always welcome. Program Updates Resource Management Partnership Program (RMPP) The billing analysis of all school districts participating in RMPP were reviewed and revised to meet the most recent policy decisions on these calculations. It was notable that no non-energy benefits have been identified during the trimester. Follow-up indicated that this was an accurate reflection of the programs current activity. Most of the participating school districts have already realized the majority of the cost-effective non-energy resource savings. One meter located at Mead High School is currently under investigation. The usage on the meter has dramatically increased to a level far beyond that which is reasonable for the tennis court application that it was intended for. We are almost certain that the nearby construction of a major addition to the school is the cause of the aberration. If we can positively identify construction as the source of the usage we will revise the billed savings calculation upward by that amo~nt. VendingMI$ERTM Program In the November 1999 Triple-E Report, it was reported that Avista was embarking on an aggressive project to install VendingM/$ER control units on hundreds of cold drink vending machines within the service territory. As of March 31 , 2000, over 300 individual VendingM/$ERunits were installed, or in the process of being installed, on vending machines throughout Avista Utilities' service territory. The VendingM/$ER control unit is manufactured by Bayview Technology Group, Inc. It is designed to operate as an intelligent power controller for cold product vending machines. It is not recommended for use with vending machines containing perishable products. The VendingM/$ER uses a passive infrared sensor to shut down the controlled vending machine when the area surrounding the machine has been vacant for 15 minutes. The VendingM/$ER will periodically re-power the vending machine to ensure the product stays cold. Preliminary monitoring conducted by Avista has shown an estimated annual energy savings of 500 kWh per unit. These results closely match studies performed by Bayview and other analysis, including a study performed by Rutgers University. These preliminary studies form the basis for the annual savings claim of 1 500 kWh per VendingM/$ERinstallation. Avista has adopted this figure for a prescriptive program, with the understanding that further data collection would occur and savings claims would be adjusted accordingly. Page 21 Exh. 6/ Schedule 2 R. Lafferty Avista Corporation Page 57 of 84 Avista Utilities Triple-E Report March 2000 The VendingM/$ER is appropriately considered a new technology since a microprocessor based control of vending machines is new and such a technology was non-existent in the Avista service territory prior to the launch of this program. Under the existing tariff, any new technology project producing 1 500 kWh in annual savings would be eligible for an incentive of $150.00 to $210.depending on the project simple payback. For this program Avista has chosen to purchase VendingM/$ER units on behalf of customers, in lieu of direct financial incentives. The cost per VendingM/$ERunit is $135. Avista Utilities is currently in the midst of axtensive monitoring of the VendingM/$ERcontrol unit. Data acquisition began in December of 1999. Monitoring is currently being performed on dozens of cold drink vending machines at customer locations throughout the service territory. Oatalogging of vending machines without control units installed, as well as those under VendingM/$E:Rcontrol. are underway. Data acquisition will continue until a large enough population has been observed to provide us with adequate data for calculation of average annual kWh savings. Oatalogging results will be used to adjust annual energy savings claimed by Energy Services if necessary. The results of datalogging efforts for the VendingM/$E:R program thus far have indicated that the savings may average closer to 800 kWh per installation. However, given the substantial variance of savings across projects we have decided to delay any adjustment until we can expand the sample size. We will revisit this topic in the next Triple-E Report, with the benefits of a larger sample size. The analysis team intends to capture data on individual electricity consumption for as long as a year, both pre and post installation. We are also striving to capture energy consumption on a variety of vending machine makes and models, dispensing cold products of various sizes and in a variety of locations. Individual Project Reviews Project Status: Program/Segment: Technology: Site: Location: Completed August of 1999 Trade Ally and New Technology Programs Canopy Lighting and LED Strip Lighting Service Station and Convenience Store Colville, Washington Study Summarv This study resulted in no impact on energy savings estimates. This project was randomly selected from a list of projects completed between January 1, 1999 and February 15, 2000. The project involved the lighting retrofits incorporated in the replacement of canopies over gas pump islands. High wattage metal halide lights were replaced with lower wattage metal halide light fixtures with some de-ramping. High wattage fluorescent lights were replaced with new technology light emitting diode (LED) strips. After some investigation, the LED strip lighting was found to be appropriately incentivized as a New Technology measure. It has been recommended that Energy Services attached Page 22 Exh. 6/ Schedule 2 R. Lafferty A vista Corporation Page 58 of 84 Avista Utilities Triple-E Report March 2000 documentation to New Technology projects to explain the rationale used to determine New Technology status. A process error was uncovered as the LED canopy strip lighting was mistakenly entered into the project tracking database as "LED Exit Signs. Study Detail This project was initiated after an energy audit .ofthe customer s facility. The energy audit was completed in September of 1998. The customer was in the process of replacing canopies over three gasoline and diesel pump islands and chose to install lower wattage metal halide fixtures. The manufacturer of the new fixtures claims several design improvements allow the use of a lower wattage lamps. The new fixture positions the metal halide lamp vertically rather than horizontally, and uses an improved reflector and prismatic lens to direct light out of the fixture in a uniform manner. Lighting improvements were incentivized under the Trade Ally program in effect at the time. the project neared completion, the Energy Se/Vices project lead separated the Light Emitting Diode strip lighting savings from the remainder of the project. This allowed the LED portion of the project to be incentivized as a New Technology. After a review of the project file and discussion with the Energy Se/Vices project technical lead, it was determined that New Technologies incentives were appropriately applied toward the LED strip lighting as this was a relatively new product and this was the first application with Avista involvement. Initially the project file lacked documentation, which would explain the rationale behind assigning New Technology status to the LED strip lighting. This deficiency was brought to the attention of Energy Se/Vices and additional notes were added to the project file. Analysis staff recommended Energy Se/Vices incorporate such documentation with all New Technology projects. As a result, a policy change has been incorporated. A review of the accounting transactions revealed an error in data entry. The LED canopy strip lighting was mistakenly entered into the Energy Se/Vices database as an LED exit sign project. The error caused incentive payments to be charged to the LED exit sign program account. Annual kWh savings were also erroneously credited to the LED exit sign program. Energy Se/Vices was informed of the error and appropriate account corrections were made. A post-verification of the installation was performed by Energy Se/Vices and photographs of the equipment were included in the project file- The analysis team also performed an independent verification of this project. The engineering calculations were reviewed and found to be accurate. Energy savings for this project totaled 12.800 kWh per year for the metal halide canopy lighting improvements and 8 340 kWh per year for the LED strip lighting. The customer received an incentive of $1 084.00. Project Status: P rogram/Segment: Technology: Site: Location Completed January of 1999 Site Specific Program Irrigation Pumping Efficiency Improvements Farm Kahlotus, Washington Studv Summarv This study resulted in no impact on energy savings estimates. Page 23 Exh. 6/ Schedule 2 R. Lafferty A vista Corporation Page 59 of 84 Avista Utilities Triple-E Report March 2000 This project was randomly selected from a list of projects completed between January 1 1999 and February 15, 2000. The project involved the installation of a variable frequency drive on a irrigation pump motor and a retrofit from standard impact sprinkler heads to low pressure pivot rotator sprinkler heads. The project was completed under a performance-based agreement. Data was collected for over a year from water flow meters and Avista Utilities electric meters on irrigation pumps serving seven pivot irrigation systems. The results of the data collection analyses were used to establish energy and water savings, and the incentive amount. Several non-energy benefits were documented by the owners of the farm; including improved cold weather irrigation to provide a measure of frost protection, a large reduction in water usage, and reduced equipment failure caused by high water pressure stress. Study Detail In the summer of 1997 , a study was begun at a family owned farm near Kahlotus, Washington. The farmers of this land were seeking assistance to reduce both electric power consumption and water usage. The customer and the Energy Services technica/lead chose to replace standard impact sprinkler heads with a low-pressure pivot rotator sprinkler heads. To allow proper operation and control of the new sprinklers, water pressure control was required. The pressure control was obtained by installing a variable frequency drive on a 100 horsepower pump serving the seven irrigated crop circles. The sprinkler heads provided several benefits: including reduced water run off, greater uniformity in water application, reduced wind drift, and reduced water loss caused by evaporation. The new sprinkler heads also allowed the farmer to vary the water droplet size, allowing improved precision in water' application. The operators of the farm closely monitored water usage over several years. Electric usage history was available from Avista Utilities customer records. With this information, a performance- based energy efficiency agreement was executed. Avista and the farm operators collected water flow data and electric usage data for over one year following the installation of the low-pressure pivot rotator sprinkler heads and the variable frequency drive. The data collection was completed in December of 1998. Several non-energy benefits were documented. Water savings totaled 554 acre-feet per year (180,521,454 gallons). Superior water distribution capabilities allowed the farm to provide a measure of frost protection. The customer anticipates significant maintenance cost savings from reduced equipment failure caused by high water pressure. The customer also expressed satisfaction with the improved water distribution on his crops, noting that "The crop under the rotator equipped center pivots was always in at least as good, or in better condition, than the crops grown under impact sprinkler equipped machines. A review of the incentive formula in the energy efficiency agreement found that the incentive calculation was appropriately applied. A review of the accounting transactions found costs and incentives were appropriately charged to the Site Specific program. The savings for this project totaled 51,326 kWh per year. The CL:stomer received an incentive of $2,566.00. Page 24 Exh. 6/ Schedule 2 R. Lafferty A vista Corporation Page 60 of 84 A vista Utilities Triple-E Report March 2000 Project Status: Program/Segment: Technology: Site: Location: Completed May of 1999 Trade Ally and Site Specific Programs Cooling and Ventilation Improvements Mine Wallace, Idaho Studv Summary This study resulted in no impact on energy savings estimates. This project was randomly selected from a list of projects completed between January 1 1999 and February 15, 2000. The project was completed using both the Trade Ally program and the Site Specific program. The Trade Ally portion allowed for expenditures to study and implement the replacement of Whizbang units with portable fans. The Site Specific program provided incentives for the conversion of an adjacent mineshaft into an exhaust shaft. The large scale and unique nature of these projects warrant an ongoing persistence study. The large annual energy savings could be reduced should the mine scale back its operations in the future. Studv Detail Heat and humidity levels in the mineshafts are very high. The miners in the shafts developed a device called a Whizbang to provide cooling. A Whizbang is essentially a pipe, drilled with approximately a dozen 1/8" holes. The pipe is connected to a compressed air system and is turned on and off by the miners as needed. The study performed by Energy Services in coordination with the customer s own engineering staff indicated the mines had fifty Whizbangs operating up to 5,408 hours per year. While these devices worked well and were compatible with the extreme conditions found in the mines, they were created without regard to energy efficiency. Energy Services proposed replacing the Whizbang units with individual portable 2 horsepower cooling fans. The customer replaced the Whizbangs on a limited basis, removing eighteen units and replacing them with two horsepower cooling fans. The engineering estimates for the Whizbang replacements were reviewed and found to be appropriate. However, the customer is under no obligation to continue the use of the individual fans, nor does there appear to be a tracking mechanism in place to ensure that the air compressor loads are reduced. Analysis staff recommended Energy Services coordinate a follow-up study within the next six months to measure the persistence of this measure. The ventilation project required that the mine open a connection to an adjacent shaft and use it for exhaust ventilation. By making the connection to the adjacent shaft. ventilation to the mine was increased and fan horsepower requirements were reduced. klformation included in the project file indicates a significant engineering effort was made to ensure this operational change 'Nould greatly improve the ventilation in the mine and reduce the required horsepower. Engineering calculations are detailed in an initial project memo from the Avista project engineer, however the project changed over time and subsequent calculations were absent in the project file. Final savings figures were presented only in a summary spreadsheet and to recreate the final energy savings figures was difficult. Analysis staff recommended Energy Services review project files upon project completion and establish a procedure to ensure final energy savings calculations are clearty documented and reflect all changes between initial study and project completion. Page 25 Exh. 6/ Schedule 2 R. Lafferty A vista Corporation Page 61 of 84 Avista Utilities Triple-E Report March 2000 As with the Whizbang project, any change in the mine s operation could dramatically alter the energy savings provided by the ventilation project. A follow-up study of both of these projects, by the analysis team in coordination with Energy Services, is to be initiated within the next six months. The savings for the Whizbang cooling replacement project totaled 2,091 300 kWh per year andsavings for the ventilation efficiency improvements totaled 1 942,100 kWh per year. The customer received an incentive (capped at 50% of the project cost) of $62 500.00. Project Status: Program/Segment: Technology: Site: Location Contracted as of March 31 2000 Site Specific Program / Manufacturing Segment Process Fuel Conversion Specialty Metals Manufacturer Spokane, Washington Studv SummarY This study resulted in no impact on energy savings estimates. This project was randomly selected from a list of projects which were in progress as of March 2000. This project was listed as Contracted as of March 31 , 2000 and involves a process fuel switch. An electric oven is to be replaced with a natural gas oven. The project file contained a detailed engineering calculation to estimate potential electricitysavings. A significant non-energy benefit was identified e.arly in the study. The customer is nearing the maximum capacity of existing transformers. The process fuel switch will allow the customer to defer the installation of a new transformer and additional electrical circuit breakers and will free up approximately 40 kW of capacity to be used for future production expansion. . The process requires precise temperature control and requires specialized ovens. Study Detail The manufacturing process, which is the subject of this project, involves the bonding of dissimilar metals. In this case, steel is bonded to aluminum using a molecular bonding material. The bond occurs as the steel and aluminum are heated in an oven with precise temperature control. The customer's process allows bonding to occur without reduction or oxidation, which often occur when dissimilar metals are in close proximity. For this energy efficiency project, the customer will be replacing an existing radiant electric oven with a new radiant natural gas oven. The customer also needed to increase processing capacity and was considering several options including the installation of additional electric or gas fired ovens. The new gas oven chosen by the customer will provide this increase in the production capacity. Energy Services personnel documented the operation of the existing electric oven and detailed the operation of up to two additional electric ovens under considercltion to meet the increased process capacity. Using production information provided by the customer, it was calculated that the heeding elements in the original oven consumed 166,400 kWh per year. Adding two similar Page 26 Exh. 6/ Schedule 2 R.
