1. Electric Industry Overview: Legislative Landscape
• Carbon policy:• Obama admin favors cap ‘n trade• Existing models: SO2, RGGI ($3.5/ton), EU• Coal plnt: $3.50/ton×0.925tons/MWhr=$3.2/MWhr=0.3¢/kWhr
• Subsidies:• Fed PTC, REPI (must have renewals - last done 10/08), 2¢/kWhr• State PTC (IA: 1.5¢/kWhr, small wind, UT, OK), sales/prop tax red
• Renewable portfolio standards (RPS)32 states, differing in % (10-30), timing (latest is 2025), eligible technologies/resources (all include wind)
• Building transmission• Multi-state transmission is very difficult• FERC’s authority - national interest corridors• Alternative: >3 states band (Uppr Mdwst Trns Dvlpmnt Initiative)

3. Problems with wind; potential solutionsCost
•$1050/kW capital cost• 34% capacity factor• 50-50 capital structure• 7% debt cost; 12.2% eqty rtrn• 20-year depreciation life• $25,000 annual O & M per MW20-year levlzd cost=5¢/kWhr
• Existing coal: <2.5¢/kWhr• Existing Nuclear: <3.0¢/kWhr• New gas combined cycle: >6.0¢/kWhr• New gas combustion turbine: >10¢/kWhr
Solution:• Cost of wind reduces as tower height increases
• Tower designs, nacelle weight reduction, innovative constructn• Carbon cost makes wind good (best?) option

Transmission cost: a small fraction of total investment & operating costs.…And it can pay for itself:• Assume $80B provides 20,000 MW delivery system over 30 years, 70% capacity factor, for Midwest wind energy to east coast.• This adds $21/MWh.• Cost of Midwest energy is $65/MWh. • Delivered cost of energy would then be $86/MWh.•East coast cost is $110/MWh.

4. Other technology options
• Energy sourcesNatural gas, clean coal, nuclear, biomass, biofuel, solar, deep geothermal, ocean, off-shore wind
• Small generation and demand side control• Other carrier technologies
pipeline (natural gas, liquid fuel) , rail/highway, H2, NH3
22
Observation: some energy sources are more economic in certain regions than others….
At 810 Gw load, 1.5% growth, we need 660 Gw over next 40 years. What do we invest in?

5. National investment planning
• A new level of energy planning• All energy forms can be used in electric or in transportation• Solution space is temporal (40 yrs), spatial (nation), and …
• Multiobjective: Min cost, max sustainability, max resiliency
• Appropriate tools do not exist today• Approach: Very fast multiobjective optimization
• Network flow modeling• Decomposition methods• High-performance computing

Conclusions
25
• Greenhouse gas has made energy top US priority, and Obama administration is poised to act • Energy and transportation infrastructure are capital intensive and very long-lifed• An intense need for infrastructure planning tools• No silver bullet; no technology should be zeroed• But wind clearly has a large role to play• Must address variability, antiphase peaks, and transmission needs• Iowa well located to play major role in this work
