State Procurement Planning Goals

Assuming adequate transmission is added, renewable resources are forecast in the LTPP to meet roughly 20% of San Diego's bundled customers' energy needs in 2010.

SDG&E will continue to add cost-effective renewables; ideally through all-source RFOs once the 2010 goal is met, working towards a 33% by 2020 target. Cost-effective energy efficiency programs during the 2007 to 2016 time frame are estimated to reduce SDG&E's capacity requirements by 487 MW and its energy requirements by 2,561 GWH by 2017. Cost-effective, price sensitive demand response resources are planned to meet 5% of San Diego's peak capacity by 2009 and continue at that level through the planning period. Distributed generation at time of peak, including the impacts from the California Solar Initiative (CSI), is expected to increase from 62 MW to 225 MW over the 10-year planning period. Finally, SDG&E's LTPP results in a declining profile for the total GHG emissions of SDG&E's portfolio.
