CHP as a Compliance Option

• Installed after 2012 (post-2022 generation)

• Non-affected units

• Eligible under a rate or mass-based approach

“Electric generation from non-affected CHP units may be used to adjust the CO2 emission rate of an affected EGU, as CHP units are low-emitting electric generating resources that can replace generation from affected EGUs.”

Efficient Economy (ACEEE)

• ACEEE is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit that acts as a catalyst

to advance energy efficiency policies, programs,

technologies, investments, & behaviors

• About 50 staff; headquarters in Washington, D.C.

• Focus on end-use efficiency in industry, buildings, &

transportation

• Other research in economic analysis; behavior; energy

efficiency programs; & national, state, & local policy

• Funding:

◦ Foundation Grants (52%)

◦ Contract Work & Gov’t. Grants (20%)

Overview

• How does CHP count?

• Rate-based approach

• Mass-based approach

• How much can CHP help in Ohio?

• Potential impact of CHP on CPP goal

• Main takeaways and next steps…

Two Basic Approaches to

Compliance

Target = CO2 emitted (tons)

Mass

Target =

CO2 emitted

(lbs)

Generation + ERCs (MWh)

Rate

CHP may earn

Emission Rate Credits

(ERCs)

CHP may earn

Allowances or other

incentives

73,769,806 tons in 20301,190 lbs/MWh in 2030

How could it work in practice?

Example: Manufacturer wants to reduce energy use by investing

in a 10 MW CHP system at their facility

Ratelbs/MWh

Masstons CO2

• Estimate MWh savings

• Verify savings

• Earn ERCs

• Sell ERCs

• Reducing CO2 from grid

implicitly contributes to

state compliance

• State may provide

incentives from auction

proceeds to fund CHP

• State may choose to

directly allocate

allowances to CHP

Two options to credit CHP in a mass-

based approach

• Set-aside some portion

of allowances for CHP

• Preferentially award

allowances to EE

Auction Revenue to

CHP

• State conducts an auction

and sells allowances

• Revenue from auction

can be reinvested in CHP

• RGGI model is valuable

example

Direct Allocation

to CHP

Another option is the direct

allocation of allowances for CHP

Example: At $10/ton, we can expect an $825 million allowance

market in Ohio in a given year. CHP can earn a slice!

A direct allocation alternative to

set-aside may be preferred

• Different from allowance set-aside

• Efficiency could earn a bigger slice of

allowance pie

• Allowances are allocated to all sources

on an output-basis

• Allowances reflect CO2 emissions

associated with MWh output

• Levels the playing field for crediting

efficiency

based-Allocation-White-Paper-FINAL.pdf

Technical potential is large for CHP

in Ohio• 517 MW installed; 6,001 MW of technical potential

• Technical potential does not consider capital costs, regulatory

barriers, policy changes, market conditions

• The Clean Power Plan may influence how much technical CHP

potential is realized

• How far would installing 10% of technical potential (600 MW) get

Ohio toward it’s goal?

Impact of new CHP on CPP target,

10% of technical potential

EPA Goal CHP (600 MW)

7% of Ohio’s

emission rate

goal may be

achieved with

600 MW of new

CHP

2012 baseline of 1,855 lbs CO2/MWh

Final 2030 goal of 1,190 lbs CO2/MWh

16% of Ohio’s

Main takeaways and next steps

• CHP can make a significant dent in Ohio’s target

• CHP can count, but a clear path for inclusion

must be included in Ohio’s compliance plan
