The Climate Trust, a mission-driven nonprofit that specializes in climate solutions, delivered a presentation on the findings of their five year performance report to the Oregon Energy Facility Siting Council (EFSC); the body responsible for overseeing The Trust’s activities on behalf of regulated energy facilities. In addition to performance metrics, the report provides insight into policy and carbon market trends that impact the work of The Trust, and offers lessons learned from years of managing this carbon price based standard.

- 17. 17 PROJECT SELECTION + OVERVIEW
- 18. 18 FUNDING • Facility & TCT sign offset MoU and TCT receives S&C funds • Construction Begins • Offset Funds Sent to TCT DEVELOP-MENT • TCT solicits offset projects • Transaction terms are negotiated • TCT conducts due diligence on counterparty and on project CONTRACT-ING • TCT presents project to Programs Committee • If approved, contract negotiations begin (ERPA) • ERPA presented to the Board of Directors and executed if approved DELIVERY • Project monitored • Offsets verified by third party • TCT retires verified offsets
- 19. 20 Program Considerations • How does the standard drive project selection? – Fixed S&C Budget of 5% – New offsets only – Two year commitment clock
- 20. 21 Selection & Contracting Budget • Budget comparable to mature markets + spot transactions • But new market + forward transactions • S&C- not easily recovered • Implication- – narrow project types + maximize volume
- 21. 22 The Oregon Clock • Projects can take years – Offsets latter in development stage • Funding requirement > availability • Implication – Maximize search area
- 22. 23 What does this mean for project selection? • What matters: – Size – Reliability – Replicability
- 23. 24 Projects Summary • Totals= 26 projects, $12.8MM, 2.97MM offsets
- 24. 25 Oregon Project Summary •17 commitments •7 active, 7 complete, 3 terminated •Total Obligation= $6,534,572 •Avg. $4.82/offset

Notas del editor
- Applies to 3 types of facilities Baseload gas- Nonbase load plants Nongenerating facilities that emit CO2 Under OR facilities are gas generating plants. The two nongenerating facilities are NWN’s Mist (pictured here) and Mollala gas storage facilities For generating facilities set at 17% below most efficient baseload plant
- BACT baseload is 0.8 lbs, peaking gas plants are at 1.5 lbs, but OR standard set at 0.675 lbs 17% lower for base-load gas plant 40-45% lower for non-base-load gas plants
- The first site certificate awarded to KCP for 500MW plant on August 1, 1996 initially pursued the applicant sponsored route because it predated the Standard. However, Iberdrola received EFSC approval to modify its certificate and make a monetary payment to TCT in 2008
- The current rate is $1.40/mt. Council last raised it in 2007. Can revisit the rate every 2 years. Original rate was $0.57
- From here you can see the average market price globally has gone from $4 to over $7 and has slid down to $5. TCT’s OR portfolio price has climbed steadily and is now at $4.32.
- New is defined as vintage verified
- Note over $30MM in monetary payments
- The two program considerations that really drive our project selection strategy are transaction cost and timing constraints.
- We have a 5% transaction cost budget comparable to what real estate agents get for home purchases or sales. The difference is housing is a mature market and a spot transaction whereas offsets are a new market, and a forward transaction. In other words, we’re compensated like someone who is finding a known commodity, but our S&C job is like making a draft pick. And like my beloved SD Chargers sometimes we pick projects that are like Dan Fouts and produces and other times we pick projects like Ryan Leaf who doesn’t bring anything but costs. Where we don’t know how successful our selection efforts are until at least decade after we enter into them. And once this money is gone its gone so we have to be very mindful that our S&C dollars that are spent translate into offsets that are delivered over the next several years translate into purchase dollars going out as expected.
- Patience is not a virtue. The intent of this criteria is to commit sooner rather than later, but offset projects involve many sources of funding. The digester projects we focus on also depend on power sales, REC sales, tax credits, and tipping fees. It can time to put these funding sources together. By way of example, the owner TMF Biofuels project, which is part of the Carty portfolio, began looking at installing a digester and producing energy in 2005, but one didn’t come online until January 2013. For Carty, TCT needs to enter into $4.7MM of contracts in the next 12 months. We got $1.1MM under our belt and out of the $3.6MM left we have $2.4MM in opportunities in Oregon. Response is to find project types we know in other states or consider projects where OR companies are exporting its knowledge and technology.
- - This map shows the 33 Or program projects: 16 are active, 10 are complete, and 7 were terminated
- Range $3.00-$8.75/offset. 1,355,172 contracted offsets
- - Summary points=
- Range $0.56-$8.75/offset 1,607,033 contracted offsets
- S&C goes along way with large volume projects A key factor to go with Horst for Phase I was he had the direct relationships necessary to enroll participants; suggested they’d deliver the contracted volume, which they did When Horst wound down, it successor company West Main, already had the infrastructure and network in place so we re-upped them because they demonstrated
- S&C, new, and timeliness requirements drive a project selection process. CP strength and project quality are also big determinants This can have spill over benefits for OR Point on strong counterparty is they can come to OR. Example here is Farm Power. Started working with them in WA and brought expertise to install two digesters in Tillamook. Point on strong project is can import lessons learned. Last update, I noted the nutrient management project we’re working on in the Midwest. Very early but we’re looking at a couple of projects involving applicable crops. Because we’ve done due diligence on this project type before, we’re coming from a position of experience on how to quantify and how to target growers who might be interested in this project type. Lastly project availability plays a role. Sometimes projects aren’t there or they choose other partners
- The only outstanding one is Carty, which expires Jan 2016 KCP is an exception because they predated the standard, had offset projects in original site certificate and got an exemption from EFSC in 2008 to transfer the obligation to us via a Monetary path payment Its take us on average 16 months, which was about the time for the last one, PW 2. Under current program design, this is a doable criterion to meet as the maturation of market and 3rd party standards really help to cut down on time needed to evaluate projects
- Obligated $12.8 of $24.3MM purchase funds received Effective rate is 73% when factor in $4.8MM in deobligations, means 30% of funds received to date need to be reobligated. This reflective of the early days of the market and expect this to go down because market has matured. Another important metric is upfront funding. We’ve disbursed about $5MM in upfront funds. And sometimes we don’t get in return what we paid. Blue Heron is an example, upfront funding was given so they could invest in EE technology that would make them more competitive. Ultimately, competition from China proved too much and they went bankrupt. We were able to get 70% of the contracted offsets. Overall we haven’t recouped about $480,000, but given our total obligations to date, this is an unrecouped rate of less than 4 cents for every dollar we commit to offset projects using OR funds
- 51 cents on the dollar for made in Oregon projects
