4. Solar Vision Study Goals of the study Evaluate the technical, economic, and environmental feasibility of meeting 10-20% of electricity demand from solar energy technologies by 2030; and Identify technology Research, Development, Demonstration, Deployment (RD3) and Policy options that could be employed to help achieve this vision. Scope of Study Includes PV (central and distributed), CSP, and Solar Water Heating/Cooling. Committee Members and Working Group Over 100 participants from Industry, National Labs, and DOE Scheduled for release in mid-2010

7. Standard financial assumptions overestimate LCOE due to combination of tax effects and higher cost of capital than in the market.* No state, local or utility incentives are included. The range in residential PV LCOE is due to different insolation and financing conditions. For a complete list of assumptions, see DOE Solar Cost Targets (2009 – 2030), in process. ‡ The electricity rate range represents one standard deviation below and above the mean U.S. residential electricity prices. $ The system is located in Phoenix, AZ and financed with a real cost of capital of 7.0%. The capital recovery factor does not take into account the ITC or financing tax preferences.

10. Standard financial assumptions yield LCOE estimates that are towards the high end of the program’s range due to excluding the 10% ITC and depreciation* Assumes IOU or IPP ownership of PV, and thus the LCOE includes the taxes paid on electricity generated. Includes 5-year MACRS but not state or local incentives. The range in utility PV LCOE is due to different insolation and financing conditions. For a complete list of assumptions, see DOE Solar Cost Targets (2009 – 2030), in process. ‡ The electricity rate range represents one standard deviation below and above the mean U.S. wholesale electricity prices. § The 2009 CA MPR includes adjustments by utility for the time of delivery profile of solar (low case: SDG&E, mid case: PG&E, high case: SCE).

Standard financial assumptions overestimate LCOE due to excluding the 10% ITC and depreciation, and higher capital intensiveness.CSP LCOE with standardized financial assumptions * Assumes IOU or IPP ownership of CSP, and thus the LCOE includes the taxes paid on electricity generated. Includes 5-year MACRS but not state or local incentives. The range in utility CSP LCOE is due to different technologies, capacity factors and financing conditions. For a complete list of assumptions, see DOE Solar Cost Targets (2009 – 2030), in process. ‡ The electricity rate range represents one standard deviation below and above the mean U.S. wholesale electricity prices. § The 2009 CA MPR includes adjustments by utility for the time of delivery profile of solar (low case: SDG&E, mid case: PG&E, high case: SCE).

31. High Penetration Solar Deployment Arizona Public Service Company - Study the impacts of 1.5 MW of photovoltaic (PV) generation connected to a typical residential feeder Commonwealth Edison Company - Evaluate consumer reactions when a utility provides advanced metering and price signals for electric power with PV, without PV, and with both PV and energy storage Florida State University - Identify the need for technical solutions to address any issues identified with high-penetration levels of grid-connected photovoltaics including protection, control strategies, and technologies National Renewable Energy Laboratory - Utilize modeling and simulation, laboratory testing, and field demonstrations to determine the effect of high penetrations of up to 500 MW of mostly commercial scale rooftop PV systems on electrical distribution systems Sacramento Municipal Utility District - Determine the value of advanced metering infrastructure, PV, and the additional value of storage University of California San Diego - Develop advanced modeling tools and electric power control strategies to optimize electric power value and to mitigate the impact of PV-sourced electricity on existing microgrids and the SmartGrid Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University - Evaluate both existing and prototype power conditioners designed at Virginia Tech to identify cost-effective approaches to address issues associated with high-penetration PV systems
32. Solar Vision StudyPreliminary Key Messages & Insights For both 10% and 20% scenarios, major technology breakthroughs are not required for PV and CSP. 10% scenario is achievable with the current electricity infrastructure; 20% scenario would require significant transmission expansion and grid operations advancement. Siting poses significant, but not insurmountable, challenges to achieving the 20% scenario. Financing growth on supply chain/corporate side is not an issue, however, on the project side will need to move beyond tax equity markets to meet targets.
