Kan. Admin. Regs. § 82-16-2 - Renewable energy goal and report
(a)
Any utility may attain the renewable energy goal in K.S.A. 661256, and
amendments thereto, by maintaining a portfolio of renewable capacity from
generation, purchased energy, RECs, or net metering systems.
(b) Each utility planning to seek commission
approval for recovery of reasonable costs incurred under RESA and either
related to the previous mandatory requirement or due to attaining the renewable
energy goal, pursuant to
K.S.A.
66-1259 and amendments thereto, shall submit
a report to the commission detailing that utility's efforts related to
attainment of the renewable energy goal. A generation and transmission
cooperative may submit a collective report on behalf of the electric
distribution cooperatives it represents. If this collective report is
submitted, the electric distribution cooperatives shall not be required to file
their own reports as required by this subsection. The report shall specify the
renewable generation that has been put into service or the portion of the
utility's portfolio of renewable generation resources served from purchased
energy, RECs, or net metering systems on or before December 31 of each data
year. An annual report shall be due on or before March 31 of each year. Each
report shall contain the following information:
(1) A description of each type of renewable
energy resource that was purchased or put into service on or before December 31
of the data year, including type, location, owner, operator, date of
commencement of operations, nameplate capacity, and for the data year, the
monthly capacity factor, monthly availability factor, and monthly and annual
amounts of energy generated;
(2) a
narrative supporting the rationale for selecting each capacity resource that
was purchased or put into service and each purchased power contract that was
executed during the data year;
(3)
a description of the utility's plans for attaining the renewable energy goal
for the current calendar year, including the utility's assessment of the
expected impact to revenue requirements;
(4) the Kansas retail one-hour peak demand
for each of the three calendar years before the data year and the average for
these three years, with supporting data and calculations if the demand differs
from the information reported on the federal energy regulatory commission's
FERC form 1. Each electric distribution cooperative that does not file FERC
form 1 with the commission shall file a Kansas electric cooperative utility
annual report with the commission;
(5) the amount of renewable energy capacity
that will qualify as a portion of the year's peak demand as calculated pursuant
to paragraph (b)(4), broken down by capacity from generation, purchased energy,
RECs, and net metering systems;
(6)
the renewable energy capacity identified in paragraph (b)(5) from a facility
constructed in Kansas after January 1, 2000; and
(7) total retail energy sales, as measured in
kilowatt-hours (kWh), in Kansas for the data year.
