As always, when we have a juicy topic, anyone on your staffs that you think
would benefit from this are invited to attend. DF ---------------------- Forwarded by Drew Fossum/ET&S/Enron on 10/25/2000 01:49 PM --------------------------- From: Drew Fossum 10/25/2000 01:49 PM To: Dari Dornan/ET&S/Enron@ENRON, Lee Huber/ET&S/Enron@ENRON, Tony Pryor/ET&S/Enron@ENRON, Maria Pavlou/ET&S/Enron@ENRON, Susan Scott/ET&S/Enron@ENRON, Jim Talcott/ET&S/Enron@ENRON, Kathy Ringblom/ET&S/Enron@ENRON cc: Michael Moran/ET&S/Enron@ENRON, Kim Wilkie/ET&S/Enron@ENRON, Kevin Hyatt/ET&S/Enron@Enron, John Dushinske/ET&S/Enron@ENRON, Shelley Corman/ET&S/Enron@ENRON Subject: Electric Developments When we originally decided to use my staff meetings for "graduate education" one of the hot topics was the electric industry. We all had a first lesson on this topic in Shelley's electricity seminar last summer. Now, John and Kevin have graciously agreed to join us Tuesday at 1:30 to discuss recent developments in electric markets and NN's and TW's efforts to attract power generation load to the system. Specific topics I hope to cover include the following: 1. What are the key factors that determine where a power plant developer puts his plant? 2. Do the transmission access and pricing rules of the various utilities/power pools vary all that much or are Order 888 tariffs pretty much the same all over? 3. How do IPPs decide what fuel supply strategy works best (i.e., buy bundled delivered fuel from someone vs. buy gas, storage, transport, etc. separately)? 4. What is the RTO Rule and why should we care? 5. Has $5/mmbtu gas killed the gas fired power market? Depending on how deeply we get into these topics, we may need to schedule a follow-up session at a later date. I look forward to seeing you on Tuesday. DF
