Virginia State Corporation Commission Case No. PUE-2013-00088. Testimony on behalf of Chesapeake Climate Action Network, Appalachian Voices, and the Virginia Chapter of the Sierra Club. The testimony evaluates the solar photovoltaic generation aspect of the Virginia Electric and Power Company's ("the Company") Integrated Resource Plan ("IRP.") The author's overall finding is that the Company's approach to solar energy is incomplete, inconsistent, and inaccurate. Given specific deficiencies explained in the testimony, the Company's approach to solar energy resource is so flawed that it should not stand without reexamination under more realistic assumptions and with more objective analytical techniques. The testimony recommends the State Corporation Commission should reject the Company's IRP.
