Attachment 2 to the Resource Planning Coalition Participation Agreement dated May 1, 2010 i. Risks will be categorized by how they can be assessed. In the interest of identifying the scale of possible risks, results will be quantified as much as feasible. To the extent that risk factors facing the Coalition can be understood using quantitative analysis tools, the best possible risk- reward tradeoff will be identified. ii. Risks that cannot be quantified will be noted as a possible reason to prefer one portfolio over another. Risk management methods outside the purview of the RFP will be briefly discussed. iii. The best balances of risk and reward will be determined, and candidate portfolios not meeting these will be eliminated. All remaining portfolios will be ranked in terms of desirability, with the best portfolio being described as Plan A, the second-best as Plan 8, and so on. The strategy represented by each candidate portfolio will be described. iv. If the best choice(s) are not clear after the probabilistic analysis, a scoring system to benchmark the plans will be developed by having the project manager and participants set down a set of desired qualities for the best portfolio, and then each consideration will be given weights commensurate to their importance. Plan A will be chosen by the top- performingscorer under this system. C. Develop individual portfolios based on chosen Plan i. The best plans for each Coalition participant will be developed hand-in- hand with results addressing aggregate Coalition needs. D. Develop report of the evaluation i. Use wholesale cost projections to benchmark to existing power supply arrangements. ii. Methods of analysis will be documented. Further detail underlying the documentation should be available upon request. iii. Advice of presentation for non-technical stakeholders will be provided. Deliverables: Report summarizing the steps in thought of the risk analysis, presentation of results, and updates as needed in the process to Coalition participants. Time Schedule for Completion of Phase 2 B: Assuming a June 1, 2011 start date, the completion date of Phase 2 B and presentation of its deliverables is estimated to be July 15, 2011. Estimated Costs: The total cost, including the labor of both RW Beck and CMMPA, is estimated to be $75,000. Cost Allocation Method: Page 2 of 8
