Subject: WREGIS Cost &
Revenue Analysis
Attached is the WREGIS Cost & Revenue Analysis
paper. It incorporates some suggestions from the Institutional Committee
call on this topic. For more background, the notes from the 9.17.04 IC
call are on the WREGIS/Yahoo website. In addition, I have attached
comments on the original paper from PG&E and the CEC Legal Office.
Comments are due by COB Thursday, September 30th.
Your task is to provide guidance to the WREGIS Sponsors
who will set the initial WREGIS Fee structure once WREGIS actual costs are
known. The areas where we are seeking guidance are:
- Types of fees
-- Do you agree with the set of fees described in the
paper? If not, why not and what would you recommend?
- Cost distribution -- The
paper recommends an approach where the majority of WREGIS costs would be
covered by volumetric fees. Do you agree with this or believe more
of the costs should be covered through fixed fee(s) of some kind? If so
why, if not, why not?
- Placement of the volumetric fee --
For a volumetric fee, do you think it should be placed at the point
of creation of the REC or at the point of retirement of some other
option? What and why?
A critical point to remember is that the broader the
participation in WREGIS the less each participant will have to pay in
fees. Since WREGIS is voluntary, except for CA/RPS compliance,
how can WREGIS fees best be structured to cover WREGIS costs and
encourage as much voluntary participation as possible?
Please feel free to call or email me if you have questions
or need clarification on something in the paper. We appreciate your
participation in the WREGIS process and look forward to hearing your comments.
Sincerely,
Jan Hamrin
