9 New Construction Energy Code (Part 6)
• Electric heat pumps are prescribed for:
• Residential HVAC
• Nonresidential – most include one or both of water heating and HVAC, depending on building type
• Residential
• Performance credit for all-electric buildings
• Required higher ventilation rate for gas stoves
• Pre-wiring required for residential dwellings
• Energy storage readiness
• Nonresidential - Solar PV and Battery Storage required The 2022 State Code is Electric Preferred.

11 Reach codes help your community prepare for
the electric future.

Any natural gas appliances installed today becomes a costly stranded assets .

Illustrative example:

Assume 3500 new housing units are built per year for the next three years with gas cooking and gas water heating. A future incentive program to replace these appliances would cost:
• $5.25M for cooktops ($500 incentive)
• $21M for water heaters ($2000 incentive)
Plus: Building all -electric today can be less expensive than building mixed fuel.

PRESENTATION
13 2022 Model Reach Codes – New Buildings
Code Approach Benefits Considerations
All-Electric Municipal
Ordinance
• Avoids CEC review and
approval
• Flexible (i.e., time-certain or
existing buildings policies can
be included)
• Avoids triennial cycle
• Must exceed future code updates to
stay relevant (i.e., most effective for all-electric with limited exceptions) CALGreen– All-Electric amendment
• Avoids CEC review and
approval
• Requires triennial update or more if
intervening cycle
Model code language for both approaches can be found at BayAreaReachCodes.org Item 4

PRESENTATION
14 In Summary
• Our 2022 model code is all-electric to help our communities to prepare for an all-electric future.
• Member jurisdictions can tailor the codes with exceptions as they deem appropriate.
• The model code includes both an energy code amendment and the municipal ordinance option.

Your efforts matter. We look forward to supporting you.

California has retired or plans to
retire fossil fuel power plants. 8,000
MW of new Clean energy resources
contracted or built.

Three times the amount of Solar and Wind and eight times of Storage over current rates of development are needed to achieve 100% Clean electricity by 2045.

Off-shore wind, demand response,
longer-duration storage and hydrogen
resources will play a part.

Carbon-free, non-RPS
Energy and Capacity can be bought together or unbundled Capacity-only resources, allow us to "rent" or claim the capacity for Reliability purposes
No Energy is associated with Capacity-only contracts

California has established a Resource Adequacy (RA) framework to ensure each load serving entity has sufficient Capacity to meet grid Reliability needs

1. California must ensure there is sufficient Capacity to meet Monthly Peak Demand

2. Plan for an adverse weather scenario

3. Meet a Peak Monthly Demand plus a buffer of 15% (Planning Reserve Margin)

4. All Resources are assigned reliability effectiveness factor

5. SVCE must comply with California's Resource Adequacy Program

© How will we meet long-term Reliability?
A balance of technologies are to ensure we meet all portfolio objectives. To meet Reliability requirements, new strategies may be required. • Long-term Renewables Clean
Energy with RA Capacity
• Short-term (less than 5 years)
RA-only mostly from Natural
Gas
• Storage (paired with solar and
standalone 3-8 hour duration)
• Demand Response
New
Technologies/Opportunities
• Long-term RA-only (greater

Feasibility/Challenges
Risk of not building or procuring sufficient
capacity in time to meet current RA and
Procurement Order requirements.

Short-term RA market is highly constrained and
expensive.

Significant Increase in Portfolio Costs. Not feasible
to build in the short term.

Availability of long-term RA capacity is susceptible
to shortages. Marketers preferred to sell Capacity
and Energy long-term
Emissions Costs

PRESENTATION
Added 2/9/23
The ability to meet Reliability will become more difficult and costly putting into question the ability to meet climate goals affordably

1. Retirement of natural gas power plants

2. Reliance on RA-only Capacity contracts

3. Effectiveness of renewables to meet Reliability

4. Availability of large hydro and out-of-state resources

5. Electrification and changing load patterns

6. Resource Adequacy Reform to more granular requirements

7. Ability to quickly and cost-effectively build Clean Energy and Capacity resources

1. Global supply and labor issues

2. Interconnection and transmission upgrade backlogs
25 Item 5

PRESENTATION
Added 2/9/23

1. Continue to procure clean energy resources with and without capacity to meet Clean goals, RPS requirements, RA requirements and IRP Procurement Order(s)

2. Explore the availability and pricing of long-term RA-only capacity products to stabilize cost and increase ability to meet compliance under current and future RA framework

3. Explore opportunities to procure BESS-hybridized Natural Gas Peaker to meet RA requirements and hedge a portion of load cost

4. Pursue demand response and distributed energy resources for reliability

5. Assess ability and pathway to meeting 24x7 Carbon-free in a cost-effective, sustainable and reliable manner 26 Item 5
