• Under the direction of the Planning Coordination Committee • The Loads and Resources Subcommittee (LRS) and its
respective workgroups oversees– the collection and dissemination of WECC load and resource datathe collection and dissemination of WECC load and resource data– directs studies assessing resource adequacy within WECC– addresses load and resource activities at NERC

WECC MethodologyWECC Methodology
• Capacity only (single hour)Capacity only (single hour)
• Deterministic analysis (PROMOD)R– Resources
– Loads
– Transmission
• Capacity margin + target reserve margin* must be greater than zero
*Target reserve margins vary by sub‐region (see next slide)5

WECC AssessmentWECC Assessment
• Mostly summer issuesMostly summer issues
• Some sub‐regions will fall short within the next 5 to 10 yearsnext 5 to 10 years
• Assessment for the PNW looks OK (from WECC’ i )WECC’s perspective)
• Different result from PNW Adequacy Forum (see next slide)

Draft Adequacy Assessment for 2015(Not for Distribution)
• Supply is adequate through 2015 (LOLP < 5%)
• LOLP dominated by capacity events• LOLP dominated by capacity events
• Sensitive to SW market availability
• Summer capacity issues could arise between 2015 and 2017
