Notice #9803 published in the Pinedale Roundup on July 11,18, 25, Aug. 1 2024

PUBLIC NOTICE

Pursuant to the Wyoming Administrative Procedure Act and the Wyoming Public Service Commission’s (Commission) Rules, the Commission hereby gives notice of the Application of Rocky Mountain Power (RMP or the Company) for authority to update tariff Schedule 37, the Standard Rates for Avoided Cost Purchases of Power from Qualifying Facilities (Schedule 37), as more fully described below.

1. RMP is a division of PacifiCorp, an Oregon corporation, engaged in the business of supplying electric utility service to customers throughout its six-state service territory, including Wyoming. RMP is a public utility subject to the Commission's jurisdiction. Wyo. Stat. §§ 37-l- 101(a)(vi)(C) and 37-2-112.

2. On June 25, 2024, RMP filed its Application, requesting authority to update tariff Schedule 37, to revise the costs of power purchased from qualifying cogeneration and small power production facilities (QFs) under the Public Utilities Regulatory Policies Act (PURPA).

3. Schedule 37 rates were last approved by the Commission in Docket No. 20000- 545-ET-18. The proposed avoided cost rates are based on RMP’s most recent official forward price curve and the 2023 IRP Update, and result in a proposed avoided cost rate of $47.12 per MWh, an increase of $9.15 per MWh for base load QFs. Proposed avoided costs rates for wind, fixed solar, and tracking solar QFs are $20.32 per MWh, $37.60 per MWh, and $37.54 per MWh, respectively. The Application states the higher avoided costs are primarily due to higher power prices the first few years. The addition of renewable resources to the 2023 IRP Update is projected to help suppress power prices and avoided energy costs.

4. This is not a complete description of the Application. The complete Application is available at the Commission’s offices or online at https://dms.wyo.gov/external/publicusers.aspx (Enter Record No. 17614), or RMP’s website at www.pacificorp.com.

5. Anyone desiring to file a statement, intervention petition, protest, or request for a hearing must do so in writing, on or before August 12, 2024. Public comments should be submitted to wpsc_comments@wyo.gov. Any intervention request filed with the Commission shall set forth the grounds of the proposed intervention or request for hearing as well as the position and the interest of the petitioner in this proceeding. Please be sure to mention Docket No. 20000-668-ET- 24 in all correspondence with the Commission.

6. If you wish to participate in this matter and you require reasonable accommodation for a disability, please contact the Commission at (307) 777-7427, or 2515 Warren Avenue, Suite 300, Cheyenne, Wyoming 82002.
