Natural Gas Overview
• Gas is produced by hundreds of
independent producers in North
America.
• Gas is delivered to market by
independent regulated pipelines.
• Gas is delivered by utilities.
• Gas price clears on the North American
market. Transmission/delivery price
can be locally determined.

Productive Capacity Gas Production
Divergent trends in gas supply and demand have led to the tight balance
between supply and demand, higher gas prices, and increased price volatility.

Obstacles For Supply Growth
• Large Capital • Uncertainty About
Requirements Future Gas Demand
• Liquidity Crunch • E&P Infrastructure &
Technology
• Access Restrictions
• Cumbersome
• Investor Recognition Approvals Process
of Opportunities
• Environmental and
• Price Volatility Siting Issues
Creates Uncertainty
There is much uncertainty about future
gas supply development.

CHP and Energy Prices
• Typical CHP application reduces
electricity purchases, increases gas
purchases.
• CHP trades increased capital cost and
gas purchases for lower electric
purchases.
• Electricity savings must offset gas and
capital costs.
Energy and Environmental Analysis, Inc. 12
The Concern
• Higher gas prices will swamp electricity
savings.
• A reasonable concern where gas and
electricity prices are decoupled.
• But - electricity markets are changing
and increasingly linking to gas
markets...
Energy and Environmental Analysis, Inc. 13
The Price of Electricity
• Average cost/regulated prices
vs
• Marginal cost/competitive prices
Energy and Environmental Analysis, Inc. 14
Historic Electricity Prices
• Regulated electric rates, based on
average cost of utility generation.
• Majority of electricity generated by low-
cost nuclear, coal, hydro assets.
– Energy cost $25-$35/MWh (2.5 - 3.5 cents/kWh).
• Large electric user rates relatively low -
<$0.05/kWh ($50/MWh).
– Retail rates higher than wholesale energy cost.
Energy and Environmental Analysis, Inc. 15
Restructured Electric Prices
• Wholesale price based on the marginal
unit at each hour.
• Marginal units in many areas are gas-
fired units for much of the year, even
where coal is the primary energy source.
• In this case, gas and electricity prices
are linked.

When Are Electricity and Gas Linked
• Restructured electric markets
– Marginal cost pricing
• Where gas-fired units are on the margin
most of the time.
– California/Northwest
– Texas
– Northeast U.S.
– Illinois - more and more

Changing Electric Rates
• Price caps are coming off in restructured
markets.
• Utilities moving to market-based rates
for large customers.
• Electricity prices will track gas prices.
• Electricity prices are more than the
energy component.
Energy and Environmental Analysis, Inc. 20
Comm Ed Example
• Large customers being transitioned from
Rate 6L to Rate HEP.
• Electricity charged at PJM day-ahead rates
plus capacity charges.
• PJM hourly rates can be low at off-peak
times but very high at peak, especially
during high demand periods
– Prices easily over $0.10/kWh during summer.
Need to consider future pricing in project
evaluation! Energy and Environmental Analysis, Inc. 21
Conclusions
• Gas prices are higher and will stay higher.
• Electricity prices will track gas prices in
restructured markets with gas on the
margin.
• Need to consider forward-looking, full cost
of electricity in project evaluation.
• CHP can be competitive in these markets.
• CHP has greater value than energy
commodity price.
