CT Generation Problem
$$ - LICAP(Locational Installed CAPacity)
Hidden Costs - $$
Weakened Reliability
Old Generation
Impact of Problem Older generation units are:
– near end of service life (many will be 40 yrs old or older by 2013)
– inefficient – avg. efficiency is about 30%– expensive to operate– mismatched to load: baseload plants being used for Spinning Reserve
Combined Cycle Gas Turbine plants – can be up to 2X as efficient

• Integrated Resource Planning and Adequacy function -has been shifted from regulators/monopolistic structure to competitive market forces
• New Role for CEAB – to review/ evaluate proposed energy solutions
Existing Challenges

•Primary goals for new entity – encourage competing energy solutions/provide opportunity to review multiple energy solutions simultaneously
•New restructured environment requires new approach

• CEAB Preferential Criteria– Energy– Economics– Energy Efficiency/Conservation/Demand & Load Management Response– Environmental– Quality of Life/ Community Interests
• Energy Project Solicitation Process (RFP)– Reactive Solicitation– Proactive Solicitation
• CT Energy Plan
