Who We Are 6

San Mateo County’s Official Electricity ProviderWe are Peninsula Clean Energy, San Mateo County’s not-for-profit, locally controlled electricity provider. Peninsula Clean Energy was launched collaboratively in 2016 by the County of San Mateo and all twenty of its municipalities. We are a joint powers authority that provides all electric customers in San Mateo County with cleaner electricity at lower rates than those charged by Pacific Gas & Electric Company. The organization is governed by a Board of Directors comprised of elected officials representing all cities, towns and the Board of Supervisors in San Mateo County, and is supported by a staff of expert professionals.

CLEAN ENERGYWe are leaders in the fight against climate change.We seek to obtain 100% of the electricity that we sell from carbon-free sources to minimize greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions for a cleaner and safer environment. We offer programs focused on reducing GHG emissions from all energy uses in San Mateo County. These programs include advancing the adoption of electric transportation and transitioning building energy usesto low-carbon electricity.

LOW RATESWe save our customers money.Peninsula Clean Energy serves approximately 295,000 accounts and saves its customers an estimated $18 million a year compared to PG&E generation service.

COMMUNITY REINVESTMENTWe are San Mateo County.We reinvest in San Mateo County to advance regional energy goals through many avenues including funding support for innovation, outreach and education, infrastructure, resiliency, and schools and community organizations.

Presentation Notes

Peninsula Clean Energy is the official electricity provider for San Mateo County with cleaner and greener power at lower rates. Peninsula Clean Energy offers two electricity products. All Redwood City customers automatically receive ECOPlus, unless they opt up to ECO100, that is 90% greenhouse gas free and is 5% lower cost than PG&E. Or customers can do more for the environment by choosing ECO100 for about $4 more per month and receive 100% renewable energy.

Organizational Priorities

Priority OneDesign a power portfolio that is sourced by 100% carbon-free*

energy by 2025 that aligns supply and consumer demand a 24 x 7 basis

Priority TwoContribute to San Mateo County

reaching the state’s goal to be 100% greenhouse gas-free by 2045

* Carbon-Free = California RPS-Eligible Renewable Energy, excluding biomass, that can be scheduled by PCE on an hourly basis

Community Energy Programs 11

GOAL 3Implement robust energy programs that reduce greenhouse gas emissions, align energy supply and demand, and provide benefits to community stakeholder groups

.

Key Tactics:• Drive personal electrified

transportation towards majority adoption

• Bolster electrification of fleets and shared transportation

• Ensure nearly all new construction is all-electric and EV ready

• Establish preference for all-electric building design and appliance replacement among consumers and building stakeholders

Objective A: Signature Programs

Key Tactics:• Invest in programs that benefit

underserved communities • Develop programs that support

the satisfaction and retention of residential and key accounts

• Support workforce development programs in the County

• Ensure programs are broadly deployed across the County

Objective B: Community Benefits

Foster innovation through pilot programs

Key Tactics:• Identify, pilot and scale

strategies for load shaping and other programs

• Provide grants for community and technology pilots

• Partner with other CCAs and organizations to collaboratively test new strategies and technologies and share lessons learned

Objective C: Pilot Programs

Deliver tangible benefits throughout our diverse communities

Develop market momentum for electric transportation and initiate the transition to clean

energy buildings

Community Resilience

1. Municipal facilities2. Medically vulnerable

residents3. All residential and

commercial building

15

SGIP Bonanza! “Self-Generation Incentive Program” CPUC program repurposed to subsidize backup batteries after PSPS events last fall Rebates administered by PG&E, installers often handle the application

Residential SGIP RebateSGIP Equity Resilience: medically vulnerable + 2 PSPS or fire threat zone

$1,000 kW/hr

All other homeowners $250 kW/hrNonresidentialMunicipal $350 kW/hrSmall Business & Nonprofits $350 kW/hrLarge Business $350 kW/hr

16

Public Facility Resilience Joint BAAQMD grant with East Bay Community Energy (EBCE)$300,000, 12-month scoping project launched in 2019

49 priority municipal facilities identified in Belmont, Brisbane, Colma, Foster City, Half Moon Bay, Hillsborough, Millbrae, Pacifica, Redwood City, San Carlos, and San Mateo

Stay tuned for opportunities for more municipalities to participate in the future

Acronym PoetryEBCE and PCE

expect to release an RFP for joint procurement in Q3

17

Power On Peninsula Residential and commercial solar+battery program Price break to customers because CCAs or utilities buy grid stabilization

services from the batteries (distributed resource adequacy) PCE is negotiating contracts with two vendors for this program:

One for single-family and multi-family homes One for commercial sites Vendors will also include SGIP subsidies in up-front price

Please help us get the word out later this summer

18

Medically Vulnerable Customers Focus on areas in high fire-

threat zones or impacted by two or more PSPS events

Homeowners: refer to vendor that can finance solar and SGIP to offer solar+storage systems at low to no cost

Renters: expanding access to battery loan programs, especially on the coast

Outreach help will be appreciated!

High threat fire zones in San Mateo County. Two PSPS events impacted much of excluded area on coast from Montara to the south.

Breaking Down Community GHG Emission InventoriesPart 1: Energy

Community GHG Emission Inventories

• Estimate the GHG emissions produced by a given community for a single year– We use the ICLEI U.S. Community Protocol

• Reported in MTCO2e• Consistent methodology allows for comparison over

time • Considers energy, transportation, waste and water

– Today we’re looking at the Energy Sector

Process

General Calculation: Usage x Emissions Factor = Emissions

Determine Emission Sources

Gather Usage Data

Determine Emissions

FactorsCalculate Emissions Share!

Determine Sources• The “Energy” Sector encompasses

the built environment• Emission sources include:

– Electricity consumption– Natural Gas consumption– Stationary Sources

• Generators• Storage Tanks• Lab Equipment• Etc.

Gather Usage Data• Usage data for Energy comes from 3 sources*:

• Electricity includes Residential, Non-Residential and Direct Access• Natural Gas is separated into Residential and Non-Residential• PCE and PG&E release data annually to OOS with approval of

jurisdiction• BAAQMD data requires a Public Records Request

Electricity Natural Gas Stationary SourcesPCE X

PG&E X XBAAQMD X

*Redacted data may be provided by CPUC

Emissions Factors• The multiplier that gets us from usage to

CO2e • Considers Global Warming Potential of

more potent GHGs such as methane and N2O

• Electricity– PCE and PG&E have independent

emission factors based on their mix of renewables and other sources of electricity

• PCE ECOPlus 2017: .142 lbs CO2e/kWh• PG&E 2017: .213 lbs CO2e/kWh

Emissions Factors Cont.

• Direct Access is calculated based on state-level data from CEC and CARB

• Natural gas emissions factor is a constant .0053 MTCO2e/therm

• Stationary Source emissions are already provided in MTCO2e and do not need an emissions factor

Data Issues• Utility customer privacy

– CPUC’s 15/15 rule requires utility providers to redact information that could be used to identify usage of individual customers

• Generally, data must be redacted if less than 15 customers are included in the dataset or if 1 customer uses more than 15% of total usage

– Usage may be estimated when we are unable to get accurate data• Timing of data availability

– Emission factors need to be verified and are not immediately available

– Stationary source data is reported by facilities individually and can run two years behind the current year

Calculate Emissions

• Final step to estimate CO2e• Combines usage data and

emissions factors• Template spreadsheet used

for all 21 jurisdictions• Followed by QA/QC

Next Steps

• Stay tuned for Part 2: Transportation Emissions• Look for e-mail requesting access to 2018/2019 energy data

– Reply-all granting OOS permission to receive data from PCE and PG&E
