You are instructed to answer the following Data Requests in the above-captioned proceeding, with written, verified responses per Public Utilities Code §§ 309.5 and 314, and Rules 1.1 and 10.1 of the California Public Utilities Commission’s Rules of Practice and Procedure. Restate the text of each request prior to providing the response. For any questions, email the ORA contact(s) above with a copy to the ORA attorney.

Each Data Request is continuing in nature. Provide your response as it becomes available, but no later than the due date noted above. If you are unable to provide a response by this date, notify ORA as soon as possible, with a written explanation as to why the response date cannot be met and a best estimate of when the information can be provided. If you acquire additional information after providing an answer to any request, you must supplement your response following the receipt of such additional information.

Identify the person providing the answer to each data request and his/her contact information. Responses should be provided both in the original electronic format, if available, and in hard copy. (If available in Word format, send the Word document and do not send the information as a PDF file.) All electronic documents submitted in response to this data request should be in readable, downloadable, printable, and searchable formats, unless use of such formats is infeasible. Each page should be numbered. If any of your answers refer to or reflect calculations, provide a copy of the supporting electronic files that were used to derive such calculations, such as Excel-compatible spreadsheets or computer programs, with data and formulas intact and functioning. Documents produced in response to the data requests should be Bates-numbered, and indexed if voluminous. Responses to data requests that refer to or incorporate documents should identify the particular documents referenced by Bates-numbers or Bates-range.

If a request, definition, or an instruction, is unclear, notify ORA as soon as possible. In any event, answer the request to the fullest extent possible, specifying the reason for your inability to answer the remaining portion of the Data Request.

Definitions

Unless the request indicates otherwise, the following definitions are applicable in providing the requested information.

Data Requests

1.  Please provide the workpapers and any supporting documents that SDG&E relied upon to select the number of (5,500) charging stations for the proposed VGI pilot program.

2.  Please provide the E3 model runs/studies as well as any other studies conducted to support SDG&E’s cost-effectiveness conclusions included in the Chapter 6 testimony of Mr. J.C. Martin.

3.  Please provide any sensitivity model runs considering different scale pilot programs than the 5,500 charging stations selected for the proposed VGI pilot program. If different number of chargers were not considered, please explain why not.

4.  Please confirm if the following figures stated on page JCM-22, of chapter 6, was used in the cost-effectiveness model runs, and whether it is correct or not:

“The BEV credit is $7,500, the PHEV-10 credit is $2,500, the PHEV-20 credit is $1,500 and the PHEV-10 credit is $1,500. This credit is reduced over time for future EV purchases.”

5.  On page JCM-38, of chapter 6, SDG&E stated the following:

“The illustrative results indicate that the SDG&E service territory EV market with the VGI Pilot Program is beneficial to SDG&E ratepayers, EV customers, and the SDG&E service19 territory region in general”

Please explain why the “illustrative results” would lead SDG&E to conclude that the proposed VGI pilot program is cost-effective without actual assumptions input in the model.
