Book Estimating Risk to California Energy Infrastructure from Projected Climate Change

Download or read book Estimating Risk to California Energy Infrastructure from Projected Climate Change written by and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report outlines the results of a study of the impact of climate change on the energy infrastructure of California and the San Francisco Bay region, including impacts on power plant generation; transmission line and substation capacity during heat spells; wildfires near transmission lines; sea level encroachment upon power plants, substations, and natural gas facilities; and peak electrical demand. Some end-of-century impacts were projected:Expected warming will decrease gas-fired generator efficiency. The maximum statewide coincident loss is projected at 10.3 gigawatts (with current power plant infrastructure and population), an increase of 6.2 percent over current temperature-induced losses. By the end of the century, electricity demand for almost all summer days is expected to exceed the current ninetieth percentile per-capita peak load. As much as 21 percent growth is expected in ninetieth percentile peak demand (per-capita, exclusive of population growth). When generator losses are included in the demand, the ninetieth percentile peaks may increase up to 25 percent. As the climate warms, California's peak supply capacity will need to grow faster than the population. Substation capacity is projected to decrease an average of 2.7 percent. A 5C (9F) air temperature increase (the average increase predicted for hot days in August) will diminish the capacity of a fully-loaded transmission line by an average of 7.5 percent. The potential exposure of transmission lines to wildfire is expected to increase with time. We have identified some lines whose probability of exposure to fire are expected to increase by as much as 40 percent. Up to 25 coastal power plants and 86 substations are at risk of flooding (or partial flooding) due to sea level rise.

Book Implications and Policy Options of California s Reliance on Natural Gas

Download or read book Implications and Policy Options of California s Reliance on Natural Gas written by Mark A. Bernstein and published by Rand Corporation. This book was released on 2002 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Assesses the benefits, risks, and implications of the increased use of natural gas to meet California's growing energy needs. The authors address supply-side solutions, such as building more capacity to receive and store gas, and demand-side solutions, such as energy efficiency and diversifying the portfolio of electricity generation with renewables and distributed generation.

Book Mojave Kern River El Dorado Natural Gas Pipeline Projects

Download or read book Mojave Kern River El Dorado Natural Gas Pipeline Projects written by and published by . This book was released on 1987 with total page 462 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The WyCal Supplement to the Mojave-Kern River-El Dorado Natural Gas Pipeline Final Environmental Impact Report/Statement (FEIR/S) is a joint document prepared by the California State Lands Commission (SLC) and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) to fulfill the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA). These two agencies in coordination with the Bureau of Land Management (BLM), the USDA Forest Service (FS), and other federal agencies have directed the preparation of this joint federal and state document. This proposed pipeline project, like the Mojave Pipeline Company (Mojave) and Kern River Gas Transmission Company (Kern River) projects discussed in the FEIR/S, would transport natural gas from various sources outside of California to the Bakersfield, California, area for use in enhanced oil recovery (EOR) and related cogeneration projects. ... The proposed Wyoming-California Pipeline Company (WyCal) pipeline would extend from Lincoln County in southwestern Wyoming across Utah and southern Nevada to a juncture point in San Bernardino County in California, where it would intersect with another portion of the proposed route which would extend from western Mohave County in Arizona across San Bernardino County and into Kern County, California. They WyCal route in fact represents a combination of the Kern River proposed pipeline route from Wyoming and extending into southern Nevada, the East Las Vegas System Alternative, and the Mojave proposed pipeline route across southern California"--Page s-1
