There are two aspects to the DRP process alignment
1. Optimally align new DRP cycle with the existing structure of IEPR-LTPP-TPP
• State agencies & legislature are concerned that all procurement & planning processes utilize consistent & up-to-date assumptions
• IEPR-LTPP-TPP alignment created in 2013-14 achieves this for those processes
• DRPs & DER adoption projections & impacts will be key elements of assumptions & scenarios for procurement & planning• Many DER types reflected in DRPs are load modifiers that need to go
into the IEPR demand forecast
• A needed next step is to map the content & timing of important inputs & outputs between DRPs & the other processes

Second aspect –
2. Distribution investment proposed in DRPs must be input to utility GRCs
• Required by PU Code Sec 769
• Three IOU GRC cycles are three years long & staggered
• IOUs perform annual internal distribution planning processes to plan each year’s infrastructure build-out, based on their own latest GRC approved funding
• What is relationship between existing annual planning process and new DRP cycle?
• How to define the future DRP cycle to address both aspects of the problem?
Page 11

Process suggestionsInter-agency group to address first aspect
• Existing inter-agency process alignment group (CPUC-CEC-ISO) describes & maps most important inputs & outputs • Engage broad group of CPUC staff working on various CPUC procurement
proceedings (LTPP, RPS, EE, DR, Storage, RA)
• Present inter-agency work to IOUs for comment & revisions
MTS Subgroup to address second aspect• Develop initial framework
Full MTS working group• Reviews draft framework presented by subgroups for feedback
