case studies will be evaluated to gauge
the impact of regulatory mandates,
tariffs, rate structures and similar
policies on the proliferation of DG, CHP
systems and other distributed energy
technologies. The second component of
the DOE study will address the raterelated issues ‘‘that may impede or
otherwise discourage the expansion of’’
distributed energy technologies. Id.
section 1817(a)(3).

II. Questions for Public Comment and
Request for Data
To aid in conducting this study, DOE
requests public input/comment that
addresses the two issues discussed
below.
A. Potential Benefits
In accordance with section 1817 of
EPAct 2005, this study will attempt to
identify, discuss and quantify benefits
that are received directly or indirectly
by three classes of recipients: ‘‘(i) * * *
electricity distribution or transmission
service provider[s]; (ii) other customers
served by an electricity distribution or
transmission service provider; and (iii)
the general public in the area served by
the public utility in which the
cogenerator or small power producer is
located.’’ Id. section 1817(a)(1)(B)(i)–
(iii).
In analyzing the potential benefits of
DG, CHP and other distributed energy
technologies, the study will focus on the
following areas:
(i) Dynamics of the electric system
(grid) including reliability in terms of
outages (seconds to hours), power
quality (microseconds), and ancillary
services (including reactive power or
volt-amperes reactive);
(ii) Economic ramifications of
distributed energy technologies,
including reduction of peak power
requirements due to on-site generation
(based on distribution feeder load
duration curves), offsets to investments
in generation, transmission or
distribution facilities that would
otherwise be recovered through rates,
and diminished land use effects and
rights-of-way acquisitions; and
(iii) Physical security and emergency
supply of power, including reducing
vulnerability of a system to terrorism.
To accomplish this aspect of the
study, DOE requests case studies,
analyses, or reports valuing these
potential benefits under varying
circumstances for individual DG, CHP
facility’’ usually refers to a facility that produces
less than 80 megawatts of electricity. Id.
Section 796(17)(A). ‘‘Distributed generation’’ (DG)
generally applies to energy systems that produce
electricity and/or thermal energy at or near the
point of use.

and other distributed energy
technologies.

Commission
B. Rate-Related Impediments
Subsection 1817(a) of EPAct 2005
states that DOE’s study must include,
among other things, an analysis of raterelated issues that ‘‘may impede or
otherwise discourage the expansion of
cogeneration and small power
production facilities.’’ Id. Section
1817(a)(2)(B). To evaluate rate-related
impediments that may hinder or
otherwise discourage the expansion of
DG, CHP systems and other distributed
energy technologies, this study will
analyze whether rates, rules, tariffs, or
other requirements imposed on such
installations are comparable to rates
imposed on other customers of the same
class that do not have distributed energy
facilities. For this portion of the study,
DOE requests public comment (in the
form of case studies or similar
information) depicting the effect of raterelated issues on the planning,
financing, installation, commissioning
or operation of DG, CHP and other
distributed energy technologies.
III. Public Participation
A. Report
DOE will make the draft report
available to the public and provide an
opportunity for interested parties to
submit written comments on the initial
conclusions reached by the study.
Following the public review period,
DOE will subsequently present the
results of the study to the President and
Congress not later than February 8,
2007, and will thereafter publish a final
report.
B. Submission of Comments
DOE requests written comments from
interested parties on all aspects of the
study required by section 1817. DOE is
especially interested in receiving
written comments from persons with
particular knowledge of the legal,
economic and technical elements
related to the benefits and rate-related
issues concerning DG, CHP and other
distributed energy technologies. Any
information submitted to DOE, however,
should not contain confidential,
proprietary or business sensitive data.
