Dan Jones’ Project Portfolio as of January, 2012

May, 1991 - present

Southwest Power Pool (SPP), Jan, 2009-Present, Lead Regulatory Engineer

Subject Matter Expert on the cost recovery of new upgrades in SPP.

Key contributor to the Regional Allocation Review Task Force’s effort to develop methods of maintaining regional equity during the cost recovery of $6.5 billion of new transmission infrastructure. Worked directly with 3 State Commissioners, 1 SPP Board

Member, SPP’s Sr. VP and Chief Counsel (SPP RARTF Secretary), SPP Economic

Planning, and a diverse group of stakeholders.

Developed first of a kind Rate Impact analysis (for the Rate Impact Task Force of the

Regional State Commission) converting annual cost and benefits into impact to the average ret ail residential and commercial ratepayer’s monthly electric bill. Provided a new regulatory review method and greatly expanded zonal economic data.

Developed SPP’s first Annual Transmission Revenue Requirement (ATRR) Forecast.

$6.5 Billion of incremental investment from 2006 through 2020. Improved forecast by developing interface with SPP’s new Upgrade Database (TAGIT). Includes the effect of Balancing Transfers and rate base depreciation. Provided Cost Allocation training to many of our TOs using the forecast.

Used in Member’s transmission cost forecasting.

Provided bi-annually to the Regional Tariff Working Group.

Led a small team in the differential analysis of the cost recovery of new upgrades of

Entergy Operating Companies and Central Louisiana Elec tric Company’s joining SPP verse standing alone - $1.62 Billion in ETR/CLE incremental upgrades v. the SPP cost allocation forecast. Generated four study methods (cost allocation applications) that minimized the cost allocation differential and formed a key position in SPP’s offer to

ETR/CLE to join SPP.

Provided key economic analysis for $900 Million of upgrades novated to Transcos:

ITC Great Plains, Prairie Wind Transmission, Transource Energy

Led the differential analysis of Highway-Byway (HWBW) cost allocation verse the

Traditional Base Plan Funding method of regionalizing upgrade costs. Provided results of a “Minority Position” of SPP Transmission Owners who proposed less than

100% regionalization of extra high voltage facilities. HWBW socializes all costs using a

“postage stamp” methodology across the entire SPP footprint on a load ratio share basis for EHV projects over 300kV. HWBW is now the FERC accepted cost allocation method for the region and was considered a huge breakthrough for the realization of

EHV facilities.

Provided present value of costs: Integrated Transmission Plan - 20 year (ITP-20) at

$1.8 Billion; $1.47 Billion ITP10; and $250 Million ITP Near Term.

Developed Paid by Self-Paid by Others study. Utilizing the ATRR Forecast, I determined how much of a TO projects were funded by their own ATRR assignment verse what will be funded by the balance of the footprint. Determined who is a net builder verse who is a net payer.

Determined the cost allocation impact of SPA, WAPA, and Basin Electric joining SPP.

Provided special studies in support of OPPD and City Utilities of Springfield decisions to remain Transmission Owning Members of SPP.
