report, " Across all scenarios combined wind and solar
generation contributes between 55% and 85% of total
generation in 2050 " with much of this transformation by
2035. Whether such high values of VRE on the grid can
be stable would require considerable grid contingency
planning simulation against normal weather variations.
The Cambium report uses an in-house developed
Regional Energy Deployment System software but
existing grid contingency planning software exists. The
opinions of a public review by a wide range of utility
experts or the North American Reliability Corp. on such
high VRE levels might be instructive.
Looking to the future, as does the Cambium system,
is always important, but at present the future of
dispatchable power at the top of the bid stack in
the future will dramatically affect marginal carbon
values. Meanwhile, ASHRAE members are being
asked to make design decisions based on future
marginal carbon factors that are far from certain and
may increase construction or operating costs for their
clients in the near term.
One question is the Cambium report mentioned
that on page 21 marginal carbon rates going back to
2010 based on eGrid data are shown. These values
should agree with the EPA's AVERT data but seem to be
lower.
Even more worrisome is that there is in some regions
a large step change between 2022 and the start of
your projection in 2025. In the " WestConnect North "
region, the unexplained step change is as great as all
the reduction over the next 25 years. Does this indicate
the Cambium projection is already off even at the 2025
starting point?
Finally, the overall needs of the electric grid are
three-fold: 1) reliability, 2) affordability and 3) carbon
reduction. Unless the first two can be satisfied,
current electric sector carbon reduction public
policies, upon which the Cambium scenarios are
extensively based, are unlikely to survive.
