Section 1001.8 - Exhibit 8: electric system production modeling

Prior to preparing this exhibit, the applicant shall consult with DPS and DEC to develop an acceptable input data set, including modeling for the applicant's proposed facility and inputs for the emissions analysis, to be used in the simulation analyses.

Exhibit 8 shall contain:

(a) The following analyses that shall be developed using GEMAPS, PROMOD or a similar computer-based modeling tool:

(1) estimated statewide levels of SO₂, NO_x and CO₂ emissions, both with, and without the proposed facility;

(2) estimated minimum, maximum, and average annual spot prices representative of all NYISO zones within the New York control area, both with and without the proposed facility;

(3) an estimated capacity factor for the facility;

(4) estimated annual and monthly, on peak, shoulder and off-peak MW output capability factors for the facility;

(5) estimated average annual and monthly production output for the facility in MWhs;

(6) an estimated production curve for the facility over an average year;

(7) an estimated production duration curve for the facility over an average year; and

(8) estimated effects of the proposed facility on the energy dispatch of existing must-run resources, defined for this purpose as existing wind, hydroelectric and nuclear facilities, as well as co-generation facilities to the extent they are obligated to output their available energy because of their steam hosts.

(b) Digital copies of all inputs used in the simulations required in subdivision (a) of this section.
