What is an Integrated Resource Plan?
■ An Integrated Resource Plan (IRP) is:
A long term planning assessment, typically covering a 20 year period, by which
an electrical service company finds the optimal plan to supply the current and
forecasted electrical demand, meeting regulatory requirements, reliability
criteria, and the least cost possible.
Usually subject to public review and final regulatory approval.
Essential to effectively plan any decision to replace, retire, or build new
generation, which are long term decisions (5 – 10 years) and are subject to
intense regulatory, financial, and environmental controls.
Page 4 Siemens Industry, Inc August 21, 2015
PREPA’s IRP
■ PREPA’s IRP is a requirement of Act 57 – 2014:
PREPA must present an IRP to the Puerto Rico Energy Commission (PREC) by
July 2015.
The IRP must be reviewed and updated at least every three years.
■ Developing an IRP is an essential part of the restructuring process that
PREPA is currently undergoing:
The results of the IRP analysis and studies are used in the development of the
Business Plan to be prepared as part of the restructuring process.

■ Three portfolios were selected for the
IRP study.
■ Main criteria for the formulation of the
Portfolios:
Three Portfolios
Page 18 Siemens Industry, Inc August 21, 2015
■ Supply Portfolio 1 focuses on minimizing investments by pursuing
repowering initiatives and utilizing existing equipment to the extent
possible.
AG 1&2 and CS 5&6 Repowering in Future 1 and Future 4 after 2025. On
Future 3, from 2023 to 2026. AG CC Repower in 2021 / 2022.
Under Future 2 with no AOGP, Portfolio 1 is not feasible as Aguirre 1& 2
need to be retired.
■ Supply Portfolio 2 focuses on new builds of smaller combined cycle
units across all four Futures.
Aguirre 1&2 and Costa Sur 5&6 replaced on Future 1 after 2025. On
Future 2, Aguirre 1&2 replacement from 2020 to 2022.
AG CC Repower on 2021 / 2022.
On Future 3, Aguirre 1&2 and Costa Sur 5&6 replaced from 2023 to 2029.
On Future 4, Aguirre 1&2 replacement after 2025 (same as Future 1).
Three Supply Portfolios
Portfolio 1 & 2
Page 19 Siemens Industry, Inc August 21, 2015
■ Supply Portfolio 3 focuses on new builds of larger combined cycle units
across all four Futures.
Aguirre 1&2 and Costa Sur 5&6 Replaced on Future 1 after 2025. On Future 2,
Aguirre 1&2 replacement from 2020 to 2021.
AG CC Repower on 2021 / 2022.
On Future 3, Aguirre 1&2 and Costa Sur 5&6 replaced from 2023 to 2028. On
Future 4, Aguirre 1&2 replacement after 2025 (same as Future 1).
Three Supply Portfolios
Portfolio 3
Page 20 Siemens Industry, Inc August 21, 2015
Generating Units IRP Considerations
Aguirre 1&2 Steam Units Converted to natural gas to comply with MATS, except in Future 2
where they are retired.
Aguirre CC 1&2 First, converted to dual fuel with natural gas as primary fuel and
distillate as backup. Later, repowered.
San Juan CC 5&6 In Future 3, will be converted to dual fuel with natural gas as primary
and distillate as backup.
Palo Seco 3&4 and San
Juan 9&10 Steam Units
Continue operation burning No. 6 fuel until new generation is added
in the North, when they will be retired or designated to limited use.
Costa Sur 3&4, Palo
Seco 1&2, San Juan 7&8
Steam Units
Declared limited use or retired; hence, not considered in the study.
Generation Options for Portfolios
Existing Fleet
Page 21 Siemens Industry, Inc August 21, 2015
■ All new units selected based on the following minimum conditions:
Dual fuel (natural gas and LFO -No. 2-)
1x1 combined cycles (flexibility to locate at any desired site independently of
other capacity expansions).
Flexibility to match increases and decreases in solar and wind turbine
generation on the grid each day:
• Daily start/stop and fast start/fast ramp capability.
• Optimized to allow a lower minimum: 40% rated capacity.
Supplemental duct firing to provide flexible capacity:
• Gas turbines have excess oxygen in their exhaust and so additional fuel
can be burned to raise the temperature of exhaust gas entering the Heat
Recovery Steam Generator (HRSG).
Dual shaft options so the ST can trip and the GT can continue to run until
another unit is brought online.

■ A three-step process to select technologies for portfolios:
1. Screening of available simple cycle gas turbines and combined cycle units
based on published data at standard conditions on natural gas.
2. Analysis of selected configurations at site-specific conditions on gas and
distillate fuels.
3. Selection of technologies to develop generation portfolios for analysis in
PROMOD.
■ GT Pro performance estimates were used to select configurations to incorporate in
the three Supply Portfolios
■ Selections are representative of particular technology class, but not final. Exact
sizing, configuration and performance to be optimized during project planning
and implementation
■ Selected options based on actual products as representative of the class. In all
cases, there is at least one additional unit available from a different
manufacturer for competitive bidding.

■ Other key considerations for the Portfolio
Detailed Definition:
MATS ruling exists and is applicable.
Generation expansions are selected based on its
own merits independently whether these are
ultimately developed by a private company in a
response of an RFP or PREPA.
New generation was sited at existing power plants
to take advantage of existing fuel and transmission
infrastructure and minimize the risk of delays
associated with building in greenfield.
Major expansion were located at Aguirre and Costa
Sur.
In the North, the expansion were located at Palo
Seco as primary location and San Juan as
secondary location.
Other Considerations
Page 32 Siemens Industry, Inc August 21, 2015
■ All expansion options were developed maintaining Aguirre and Costa
Sur are major supply points, for the following reasons:
Fuel diversity and competition of gas supply leading to market pricing:
• Gas in Aguirre is the main driver for the assumption that the CS gas will stop being
linked to the No. 6 and the EcoEléctrica spot price will also become aligned with the
Aguirre price.
• Beyond NG, the other fuel that PREPA may be able to count for its generation in
the long term will be expensive LFO. This may give significant market power to the
owners of a single LNG terminal in the island.
Reduced dependence on one geographical location or plant:
• Experience has shown that planners need to evaluate the impacts of loosing all
transmission lines on the same corridor or an entire transmission switchyard
(NERC – TPL 001-4, FERC 754 and NERC CIP-14).
• While loss of load is expected, the vulnerability of the system is to be assessed and
mitigation identified. This vulnerabilities are to be avoided.
Other Considerations Two main Gen complexes in the South
Page 33 Siemens Industry, Inc August 21, 2015
Reduced dependence on one geographical location or plant (cont.)
• PREPA system is designed to provide two complementary transmission corridors
South – North starting at Aguirre and Costa Sur and a North Corridor. Only one
source will deviate from this design.
– Aguirre Corridor: 4,389 MVA (39%)
– Costa Sur Corridor: 3,012 MVA (27%)
– North Corridor: 3,886 MVA (34%)
• Moving generation from Aguirre to Costa Sur was tested and only moving the two
AG CC resulted in heavy contingency overloads. Moving a generation equivalent to
AG 1 resulted in voltage collapse for 60 separate events.
Feasibility of Transmission Investments:
• Transmission investments that imply new overhead transmission lines can take a
long time to develop even under favorable circumstances.
• In the US typical timelines are 5 to 10 years after the decision is made depending
on permitting and regulatory.
• Deviating from the basic design of PREPA’s transmission system would imply
major investments at 230 kV that would make the IRP risky and of doubtful
implementation.
Other Considerations Two main Gen complexes in the South

fuel costs than Portfolio 2; Portfolio 1 still has the highest fuel costs.
Portfolio 3 achieves the target RPS and the cost associated with curtailment becomes
very small once the Portfolio is fully deployed.

Portfolio 3 under Future 1 is not expected to have significant LOLH and always under the
target of 4.
The reserves are expected to stabilize at about 44% not considering the 18x21MW GTs or
Cambalache. The lowest of the 3 Portfolios:
• Note that a system like PREPA is expected to have larger reserves: ERCOT for example
has a reserve target of 13.75% and this represents 9,500 MW or 7 times the largest unit.
• In PREPA the 3 largest unit (2x450 + 410) implies 44% reserve over 3000 MW.
• For Portfolio 3 using (3x393) / (2900) = 41%
The firm reserves, correcting for unavailability are expected to stabilize at 30%.

■ The portfolio complies with the proposed Clean Power Plan requirements and with the GHG
New Source Standard, with some adjustments as indicated below.
The Repowered Aguirre CC 1&2 have emissions over the 1000 lb/MWh due to lower dispatch
levels and this can be addressed introducing this restriction on the economic dispatch.
■ The emissions rate declines over time as the portfolio mix changes from oil fired generation
capacity to new, more efficient natural gas fired generation capacity and greater renewable
capacity. Total CO2 emissions are expected to decline by 32 percent from 1,425 lb/MWh in
2016 to 962 lb/MWh in 2035.

■ The portfolio complies with the proposed Clean Power Plan requirements and with the GHG
New Source Standard, with the provisions below.
The Repowered Aguirre CC 1&2 have emissions over the 1000 lb/MWh due to lower dispatch
levels and this can be addressed introducing this restriction on the economic dispatch,.
■ The emissions rate declines over time as the portfolio mix changes from oil fired generation
capacity to new, more efficient natural gas fired generation capacity and greater renewable
capacity. Total CO2 emissions are expected to decline by 34 percent from 1,396 lb/MWh in
2016 to 919 lb/MWh in 2035..

As the amount of intermittent renewable energy in a system
increases, there are moments where there is more energy than the
system can handle at once, and would cause system unbalance and
collapse if not cut, or curtailed. The current contracts require PREPA
to pay this energy, even if it was not used. In the selected portfolio
(P3F1) we can see that when not enough flexible generation is
available, PREPA would have to pay up to $35 million a year in
curtailment costs.

Page 60 Siemens Industry, Inc August 21, 2015
■ New and Flexible generation at Palo Seco Plant will be available by 2022:
210 MW (3x70 MW SCC-800).
■ Investments identified from previous reliability studies:
Bayamón TC Second Transformer of 230/115 kV and 544 MVA,
Reconstruction of 115 kV line 36100 Bayamón TC to Barrio Piñas: upgraded to
231 MVA (1192.5 kcmil ACSR conductor)
A new 2.5 mile 115 kV underground cable from Humacao TC to Yabucoa TC.
Capacitor banks at Hato Rey TC (43.05 MVAr) and Berwind TC (46.6 MVAr)
refurbished and considered in service.
Reconstruction and increase capacity of the 115 kV line 37800 Cayey TC to
Caguas TC to 231 MVA (conductor 1192.5 kcmil ACSR).
■ The study identified other additional investments, based primarily on a heavy
use of the transmission system.
Transmission Study Key Inputs and Assumptions
Page 61 Siemens Industry, Inc August 21, 2015
■ As a result of the transmission system study, critical contingencies were
identified, along with their impacts on such system. Among others, the
resulting impacts include:
Heavy congestion in main 115 kV lines.
Extreme low voltages that may induce a voltage collapse at the Metropolitan and West
areas.
■ The following investments were identified for mitigating the system impacts
described before:
Reconstruction of 230 kV lines
New underground 115 kV line between Berwind TC and Sabana Llana TC.
New 50 MVAR shunt capacitor bank at Mayagüez TC.
A new dynamic reactive power compensation (i.e. STATCOM):
• 2 units of ±100 MVAr, one at Monacillo TC and one at San Juan Plant (under review).
• Having 2 units will provide sufficient compensation and permit to maintain one compensator
without compromising the security of PREPA’s grid.
Heavy use of the transmission system:
Critical Contingencies
Page 62 Siemens Industry, Inc August 21, 2015
■ Puerto Rico annually experiences a
great activity of hurricanes and tropical
storms during the months of June and
November, the Hurricane Season.
■ These events can affect the
transmission lines, potentially affecting
multiple important transmission lines
South-North.
■ With a disrupted South-North
transmission system, the generating
units at North play a crucial role in
supplying the local load as the system
is recovered.
Considerations for Extreme Events
Page 63 Siemens Industry, Inc August 21, 2015
■ It was evaluated an event where a major hurricane separates the North
from the South, with the IRP reduced generation capacity at the North and
the entire fleet being available.
■ Different load scenarios were simulated reflecting various affected areas
in the North:
Bayamón, Carolina, and San Juan
Caguas, Bayamón, Carolina, and San Juan
Arecibo, Caguas, Bayamón, Carolina, and San Juan
■ Significant load shedding was found to be required, from 6% to 39%, with
the IRP reduced generation capacity at the North and the entire fleet
available.
Extreme Events
Evaluation
Page 64 Siemens Industry, Inc August 21, 2015
■ The load shedding levels found are not acceptable, so it is recommended
to take some actions to minimize such load shedding during Major
Events.
■ Recommendations:
Have stand-by generation available at Palo Seco or San Juan, beyond what is
already considered in the IRP.
Perform a System Restoration Study:
• Assessment of feasible standby generation alternatives which result more
economical for PREPA’s operations.
• Consideration of the transmission system reconstruction, environmental
permitting process, and related costs.
• Evaluation of black start plans and emergency preparedness procedures.
Extreme Events
Conclusion and Recommendation
Page 65 Siemens Industry, Inc August 21, 2015
■ There are almost $2 billion in
transmission projects of which
$274 millions are crucial for the IRP.
