PORTLAND, Ore.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Portland General Electric Company (NYSE: POR) today reported net income of $40 million, or 44 cents per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2017. This compares with net income of $34 million, or 38 cents per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2016. The company is reaffirming 2017 earnings guidance of $2.20-$2.35 per diluted share.
“PGE’s strong third quarter financial performance was driven by higher energy deliveries across all customer groups,” said Jim Piro, CEO of Portland General Electric. “We also achieved several important milestones on key initiatives, including settlement of all issues in our 2018 general rate case, acknowledgement of our 2016 integrated resource plan and a successful transition to the western Energy Imbalance Market on October 1st.”
Q3 2017 earnings compared to Q3 2016 earnings
The increase in third quarter earnings per diluted share for 2017 in comparison to the third quarter of 2016 was due to an increase in retail deliveries driven by increased customer usage and increased customer counts, as well as favorable weather. This increase was partially offset by an increase in the estimated refund under the decoupling mechanism, higher depreciation and amortization expense, an increase in the effective tax rate and other miscellaneous items.
Company Updates
Integrated Resource Plan
In November 2016, PGE filed an IRP with the Oregon Public Utility Commission. The 2016 IRP addresses acquisition of additional resources to meet renewable portfolio standard requirements and replace energy and capacity from the Boardman Generating Station, which will cease coal-fired operations at the end of 2020. Further actions identified through 2021 are expected to offset expiring power purchase agreements and integrate variable energy resources, such as wind or solar generation facilities. The 2016 IRP also considers the Oregon Clean Electricity Plan, which, among other things, increased the RPS requirements for 2025 and future years.
In August 2017, the OPUC acknowledged PGE’s 2016 IRP and the following primary action plan items:
- Acknowledge capacity needs of 561 MW, of which 240 MW must be dispatchable, in 2021;
- Acquire a total of 135 MWa of cost-effective energy efficiency;
- Acquire at least 77 MW (winter) and 69 MW (summer) demand response through 2020 and 16 MW of dispatchable standby generation from customers to help manage peak load conditions and other supply contingencies;
- Deploy 1 MWa of conservation voltage reduction through 2020;
- Submit one or more energy storage proposals in accordance with Oregon House Bill 2193, by January 1, 2018, with an initial proposal expected to be filed with the OPUC by mid-November 2017; and
- Perform various research and studies related to flexible capacity and curtailment metrics, customer insights, decarbonization, risks associated with direct access programs, treatment of market capacity, accessing resources from Montana, and load forecasting improvements.
PGE is engaged in bilateral negotiations with owners of existing regional resources to fill its capacity need. In August 2017, the company filed with the OPUC a request for a waiver of the OPUC’s competitive bidding guidelines. In that filing, PGE requested a waiver to procure 350-450 MW of capacity to partially satisfy PGE’s 561 MW capacity deficit. PGE expects additional capacity contributions from contracts with qualifying facilities as defined by the Public Utility Regulatory Policies Act of 1978, acquisition of energy storage in compliance with House Bill 2193, and an assumed capacity contribution from incremental renewables procured through a request for proposal. The OPUC is scheduled to make a decision on the waiver request by December 5, 2017, and the company currently anticipates negotiations to be complete by the end of the first quarter of 2018. Following the outcome of the bilateral negotiations and waiver process, PGE may request approval from the OPUC to issue RFPs for any remaining capacity need.
The OPUC did not acknowledge PGE’s proposed actions for acquiring renewable resources and asked the company to work with OPUC staff and parties to prepare and submit a revised proposal, which PGE presented at a public meeting on October 10, 2017. In the revised proposal, the company identified the potential of revising the procurement target for the addition of RPS compliant renewable resources to 100 MWa, which could include unbundled RECs. PGE expects to submit an IRP addendum by the end of 2017 that would seek acknowledgement of a revised renewable action plan, including the issuance of RFPs for renewable resources.
Since issuing the IRP, PGE has identified a potential benchmark wind resource that could have a nameplate capacity of up to approximately 300 MW, which would meet the need for the renewable resources, and which would qualify for the production tax credit. The company continues to explore this option. The submission of this resource into an RFP for renewable resources as a benchmark bid is subject to additional due diligence and negotiation along with execution of definitive agreements. If agreements are reached, the potential benchmark resource would be considered in the RFP along with other renewable resource offerings.
The RFP process will include oversight by an independent evaluator and review by the OPUC.
2018 General Rate Case
On February 28, 2017, the company filed with the OPUC a general rate case based on a 2018 test year. The filing includes investments to ensure system safety and reliability and to better meet customers’ changing needs and service expectations. PGE’s initial filing proposed a $100 million increase in the annual revenue requirement related primarily to an increase in base business costs for upgrades to PGE’s transmission and distribution system, investments in strengthening and safeguarding the grid, and support for key initiatives such as participation in the Western Energy Imbalance Market. The proposal was based upon:
- A capital structure of 50 percent debt and 50 percent equity;
- A return on equity of 9.75 percent; and
- A rate base of $4.6 billion.
PGE, OPUC staff, and certain customer groups have reached agreements that resolve all issues in the case, provide for an expected $20 million net increase in annual revenue requirements, and reflect:
- A capital structure of 50 percent debt and 50 percent equity;
- A return on equity of 9.5 percent; and
- A rate base of $4.5 billion.
The net increase in annual revenue requirement as proposed in the company’s initial filing and as revised consists of the following (in millions):

Regulatory review of the 2018 GRC will continue until the final order is issued, which is expected in December 2017, with new customer prices expected to become effective January 1, 2018. Final revenue requirement amounts subject to revision include power costs (to be finalized November 2017) and actual cost of debt, including any additional debt issuances. Any subsequent reductions in PGE's overall cost of long-term debt through June 30, 2018 will be reflected either in the final 2018 GRC update or through a supplemental tariff filing. All stipulations remain subject to OPUC approval.
The 2018 GRC filing (OPUC Docket UE 319), as well as copies of direct and reply testimony, exhibits, and stipulations are available on the OPUC website at www.oregon.gov/puc.
Western Energy Imbalance Market
On October 1, PGE officially began full participation in the western Energy Imbalance Market.
“Joining the EIM is an important milestone in our effort to build a smarter, cleaner, more resilient energy grid,” said Maria Pope, PGE’s president and incoming CEO. “Our customers will benefit from our participation, as it will help us maintain reliability and keep power affordable while making efficient use of carbon-free renewable resources throughout the region.”
As a market participant, PGE’s generating plants now receive automated dispatch signals from the California Independent System Operator, allowing for load-balancing with other EIM participants in five-minute intervals. This gives PGE access to the least-cost energy available in the region to meet changes in real-time energy demand and short-term variations in customers’ power use. Additionally, it maximizes the use of renewable resources by making it easier to take immediate advantage of available wind and solar generation anywhere in the system while efficiently integrating variable output with other, dispatchable resources.

Total revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2017 increased $31 million compared to the three months ended September 30, 2016, as total retail revenues increased $27 million while wholesale and other revenues were a total of $4 million higher.
The change in retail revenues resulted largely from the following:
- A $37 million increase resulting from 8.5 percent greater retail energy deliveries due to favorable weather conditions and increased average usage per customer across all classes. Energy deliveries to residential customers increased 12.3 percent in the third quarter of 2017 due in part to the effects of weather, as temperatures in 2017 were abnormally warm during the summer cooling season, and customer growth continued. Energy deliveries to commercial customers showed an increase of 6.8 percent while deliveries to industrial customers increased 6.0 percent, largely due to strength in the high tech sector; and
- A $3 million increase in various Supplemental tariffs, the largest of which was a $1 million increase due to the accelerated cost recovery of Colstrip; partially offset by
- A $7 million decrease that resulted from customer price changes; and
- A $4 million decrease that resulted from other tariffs, which included $3 million greater estimated refunds under the decoupling mechanism, combined with a variety of smaller items.
Total cooling degree-days for the three months ended September 30, 2017 were up 45 percent from the level for the three months ended September 30, 2016, 43 percent above the quarterly average. Total heating degree-days for the three months ended September 30, 2017 were on par with the three months ended September 30, 2016 and the historical average.
The following table indicates the number of heating and cooling degree-days for the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, along with 15-year averages based on weather data provided by the National Weather Service, as measured at Portland International Airport:
| Heating Degree-days | Cooling Degree-days | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Wholesale revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2017 increased $2 million, or 4 percent, from the three months ended September 30, 2016, and consisted of a $7 million increase related to a 16 percent increase in average wholesale price partially offset by a $5 million decrease related to a 10 percent decrease in wholesale sales volume.
Actual NVPC for the three months ended September 30, 2017 increased $2 million when compared with the three months ended September 30, 2016. The increase was driven by a 1 percent increase in the average variable power cost per MWh, and a 2 percent increase in total system load. The increase in wholesale revenues was driven primarily by a 16 percent increase in the average wholesale sales price, offset slightly by a 10 percent decrease in wholesale sales volume. For the three months ended September 30, 2017, actual NVPC was $22 million above the baseline as the company met higher customer load, driven by historically hot weather, with energy purchased at super peak prices in the open market in addition to the cost of foregoing the use of company resources in order to maintain mandated reliability reserves. For the three months ended September 30, 2016, actual NVPC was $3 million above baseline NVPC.
Generation, transmission and distribution expense increased $4 million, or 6 percent, in the three months ended September 30, 2017 compared with the three months ended September 30, 2016 driven primarily by $2 million of operating expense for Carty (placed in service July 29, 2016).
Administrative and other expense increased $1 million, or 2 percent, in the three months ended September 30, 2017 compared with the three months ended September 30, 2016. The increase was primarily due to a $2 million increase in employee incentives, offset by decreases in other miscellaneous expenses.
Depreciation and amortization expense increased $8 million in the three months ended September 30, 2017 compared with the three months ended September 30, 2016. The increase was driven by higher depreciation expense of $6 million resulting from capital additions, $2 million of which was due to Carty going into service in July 2016, and a $1 million decrease in the amortization credit related to the Trojan spent fuel refund to customers, which is also reflected in revenues as increases or decreases in expense resulting from amortization of regulatory assets or liabilities are directly offset in revenues.
Interest expense, net increased $2 million, or 7%, in the three months ended September 30, 2017 compared with the three months ended September 30, 2016 primarily due to a lower Allowance for borrowed funds used during construction, as a result of Carty going into service in July 2016.
Other income, net increased $2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017 compared with the three months ended September 30, 2016 due largely to interest income on various regulatory assets and unrealized gains on trust assets.
Income tax expense was $13 million in the three months ended September 30, 2017 compared with $6 million in the three months ended September 30, 2016, with effective tax rates of 24.5 percent and 15.0 percent, respectively. The increase in income tax expense and effective tax rate was primarily driven by higher pre-tax income and lower PTCs.
