APPLICATION OF KOCH POWER § PUBLIC UTILITY COMMISSION-

SOLUTIONS, LLC OF

APPLICATION OF KOCH POWER SOLUTIONS, LLC PURSUANT TO SECTION 39.158 OF THE PUBLIC UTILITY REGULATORY ACT

TO THE HONORABLE PUBLIC UTILITY COMMISSION OF TEXAS:

Pursuant to Sections 39.158 and 39.154 of the Public Utility Regulatory Act ("PURA"), '

Koch Power Solutions, LLC ("KPS" or "Applicant"), a wholly-owned, indirect subsidiary of

Koch Industries, Inc., submits this application for approval of the proposed merger of its wholly-

owned subsidiary, Koch Power Solutions II, LLC, with and into Odessa Power Holdings, LLC

("Odessa Power"). Odessa Power directly or indirectly owns one hundred percent of the issued

and outstanding limited liability company interests or partnership interests in (i) Odessa Power,

LLC, a Delaware limited liability company ("OP"), (ii) Odessa-Ector Power I, LLC, a Delaware

limited liability company ("OEP I"), (iii) Odessa-Ector Power II, LLC, a Delaware limited

liability company ("OEP II"), (iv) Odessa-Ector Power Partners, LP, a Delaware limited partnership ("OEP LP"), and (v) Odessa-Ector Power Partner Services, LLC, a Delaware limited

liability company ("OEP Services"). Odessa Power, OP, OEP I, OEP II, OEP LP and OEP

Services are referred to collectively herein as the "OEP Companies".

The OEP Companies own and operate the Odessa-Ector Power Partners, LP generating

facility (the "Odessa Facility"), a 1,000 MW combined-cycle, gas-fired generating facility

TEX. UTIL. CODE ANN. §§ 39.158, 39.154 (West, Westlaw through the 2013 Third Called Session of the 83rd Legislature). located in Odessa, Texas, within the Electric Reliability Council of Texas ("ERCOT"). The

Odessa Facility holds Power Generation Company Registration Number 20001, issued by the

Public Utility Commission of Texas ("PUCT" or "Commission") on October 11, 2000. As a result of the proposed merger, the OEP Companies will become wholly-owned subsidiaries of

KPS, and indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries of Koch Industries, Inc. S.a.r.l.

("INVISTA"), an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of Koch Industries, Inc., owns and operates a nylon intermediates manufacturing facility in Victoria, Texas, within ERCOT, which includes a 90 MW gas-fired, topping cycle generating facility that is a Qualifying Facility (the "Victoria

Facility"). The Victoria Facility holds Self Generation Company Registration Number 70061, issued by the Commission on March 18, 2013.

Koch Industries, Inc. also owns Georgia-Pacific LLC which, in turn, owns all of the equity interests in ten separately incorporated entities that own qualifying cogeneration facilities

in the southeast region of the United States. These ten separately incorporated entities are: (i)

Georgia-Pacific Brewton, LLC, (ii) Brunswick Cellulose, Inc., (iii) Georgia-Pacific Cedar

Springs, LLC, (iv) Georgia-Pacific Consumer Operations, LLC (Palatka), (v) Georgia-Pacific

Consumer Operations, LLC (Port Hudson), (vi) Georgia-Pacific Consumer Products, LP

(Naheola), (vii) Georgia-Pacific Consumer Products LP (Savannah), (viii) Georgia-Pacific LLC

(Crossett), (ix) Georgia-Pacific Monticello LLC, and (x) Leaf River Cellulose, LLC. These

entities are referred to collectively herein as the "Georgia Pacific Companies".2 The Georgia

Pacific Companies own and operate a combined total of approximately 975 MW of generating

capacity in the SERC power region. Approximately 215 MW of this capacity is located in the

` A copy of the Georgia-Pacific Companies' most recent triennial market power analysis submitted to the Federal Regulatory Commission on December 14, 2011, is attached hereto for informational purposes as Attachment 1.

2 Entergy balancing authority area and is arguably capable of being delivered into ERCOT over

one or both of the High Voltage Direct Current ("HVDC") Ties that connect ERCOT with the

Eastern Interconnection. The remainder of this generating capacity is located in the Southern

Company balancing authority area (approximately 572 MW), the Southern Mississippi Electric

Power Association balancing authority area (approximately 100 MW), and the Florida Power &

Light Corp. balancing authority area (approximately 88 MW).

The combined generation owned and controlled by KPS and its affiliates following the proposed merger may exceed one percent of the total electricity offered for sale in ERCOT.

However, the combined generation owned and controlled by KPS and its affiliates following the proposed merger will be far below the twenty percent threshold that would trigger further review of the proposed merger under PURA § 39.154. Further, the combined generating capacity owned and controlled by KPS and its affiliates following the proposed merger will not exceed one percent of the total electricity offered for sale in the SERC power region. In light of these factors, KPS requests that the Commission grant its approval of the proposed merger on an expedited basis.

1. BACKGROUND

The Commission has jurisdiction over this application pursuant to PURA § 39.158.

Section 39.158 requires that owners of electric generation facilities that offer electricity for sale in Texas obtain the approval of the Commission before closing any proposed merger, consolidation or affiliation transaction if the electricity offered for sale by the merged, consolidated or affiliated company will exceed one percent of the total electricity offered for sale in the applicable power region. Section 39.158 further provides that the Commission shall approve the transaction unless the Commission finds that the transaction will result in a violation of PURA § 39.154.

PURA § 39.154 provides that, beginning with the implementation of customer choice, a power generation company may not own and control more than twenty percent of the installed capacity located in, or capable of being delivered to, the applicable power region. As demonstrated in Attachment 2, the proposed merger will not result in KPS or its affiliates owning and controlling twenty percent or more of the installed capacity located in, or capable of being delivered to, ERCOT or SERC. Accordingly, the Commission has jurisdiction over, and under the statutory standard is required to approve, this application.

II. AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVES AND ADDRESSES

KPS's principal executive offices are located at 4111 East 37`h Street North, Wichita, KS,

67220. KPS's representatives in this proceeding are:

William F. Henze II Jones Day 717 Texas, Suite 3300 Houston, TX 77002 1.832.239.3603 (telephone) 1.832.239.3600 (facsimile) [email protected]

III. RELIEF REQUESTED

KPS requests that the Commission approve the proposed merger pursuant to PURA

Section 39.158 and 39.154. KPS proposes to close the transaction on the earlier of (a) 120 days

4 following the date of the filing of this application, or (b) promptly following the acquisition of all required regulatory approvals and the satisfaction of all other conditions precedent thereto.

PURA Section 39.158 states that the Commission "shall approve the transaction unless the commission finds that the transaction results in a violation of Section 39.154." PURA

§ 39.154 provides that, beginning with the implementation of customer choice, a power generation company may not own and control more than twenty percent of the installed capacity located in, or capable of being delivered to, the applicable power region. KPS respectfully requests that the Commission approve the Transaction as expeditiously as possible, and, to that end, includes in Attachment 2 detailed information, supported by affidavit, regarding the amount of installed capacity that will be owned and controlled by KPS and its affiliates in ERCOT and

SERC. As discussed below, the information provided in this application clearly demonstrates that Applicants' combined capacity share will not exceed the twenty percent limitation in either

ERCOT or SERC. Because the relevant inquiry under PURA is limited to whether the proposed transaction would cause Applicants' combined capacity share to exceed the twenty percent threshold, and the relevant facts and law in this regard are clear, expedited consideration of this application is warranted.

IV. THE PROPOSED MERGER WILL NOT RESULT IN A VIOLATION OF PURA § 39.154

A. ERCOT

Following the consummation of the proposed merger, KPS will indirectly own one hundred percent of the Odessa Facility and will be affiliated with INVISTA, the owner of the

Victoria Facility. The Odessa Facility and the Victoria Facility are interconnected only to the

ERCOT power region. A list of the total direct and indirect ownership interests in installed generating capacity that will be owned and controlled by KPS and its affiliates following consummation of the proposed merger is provided in Attachment 2 to this Application.

Attachment 2 was prepared in accordance with the Commission's Substantive Rules, § 25.91 and

§ 25.401.3 As shown in Attachment 2, following the consummation of the proposed merger,

KPS and its affiliates will own and control 1089.9 MW of installed generation capacity in

ERCOT. The total installed generation capacity in ERCOT, based upon publicly available information from ERCOT, is 76,915 MW.4 Thus, the total amount of installed generation capacity directly or indirectly owned and controlled by KPS and its affiliates will be 1.42 percent of the total ERCOT generating capacity, well below the twenty percent limit established in

PURA § 39.154. Accordingly, the Commission should approve the proposed merger.

The generating capacity owned and controlled by the Georgia Pacific Companies would need to be wheeled across at least two balancing authority areas to reach the HVDC Ties, and would be subject to the import limitations of those Ties, and thus is not capable of competing to displace ERCOT generation. Nonetheless, even if the ownership interests of the Georgia Pacific

Companies in generating capacity within SERC, which also is listed in Attachment 2, were included in the calculation of the market share of KPS and its affiliates within ERCOT, following the consummation of the proposed merger, KPS and its affiliates would own and control only 2.68 percent of the total generation capacity in or capable of being delivered to

ERCOT, still well below the twenty percent limit established by PURA § 39.154.

B. SERC

The proposed merger will not result in a violation of PURA § 39.154 with respect to the

SERC power region. As shown on Attachment 2, KPS and its affiliates own and control

3 16 TEX. ADMIN. CODE §§ 25.91, 25.401 (West, Westlaw through September 30, 2013)

`` See Report on the Capacity, Demand, and Reserves in the ERCOT Region, May 2013, available at http://www. ercot.com/co ntent/news/presentations/2013/CapacityDemandandReserveReport-May2013.pd£

6 approximately 975 MW of generating capacity within SERC. Even assuming that all of the energy from generating units owned and controlled by KPS and its affiliates in ERCOT could be transmitted to SERC over the existing HVDC Ties, the proposed merger would not result in KPS and its affiliates owning and controlling twenty percent of the generating capacity in SERC.

Assuming all of the energy from the Victoria Facility and all of the energy from the Odessa

Facility were capable of being transmitted to SERC, KPS and its affiliates would own and control only 0.7 percent of the generating capacity in SERC.5 Thus even using the most conservative calculation of the market share of KPS and its affiliates, the proposed merger would not result in a violation of PURA § 39.154. Accordingly, the Commission should approve the proposed merger on an expedited basis.

C. NO OTHER KPS GENERATION IN TEXAS

Neither KPS nor any of its affiliates own and control any other power generation facilities in Texas. All of the power generation facilities owned by KPS and its affiliates in or capable of delivering electricity to Texas are listed in Attachment 2.

V. AFFIDAVIT IS SUPPORT OF APPLICATION

Attached to this Application as Attachment 3 is the Affidavit of Kurt Kolbeck, Senior

Vice President of Koch Energy Services, LLC, the direct parent entity of Koch Power Solutions,

LLC, attesting to the facts set forth in this Application and, in particular, in Attachment 2.

VI. NOTICE

The only other entities affected by this Application are the OEP Companies. KPS is providing a copy of this Application to the OEP Companies contemporaneously with the filing of

Based on total generation capacity in SERC of 281,379 MW.

A copy of the proposed public notice regarding this Application for publication in the Texas Register is attached hereto as Attachment 4

VII. PROPOSED PROCEDURAL SCHEDULE

KPS proposes to close the transaction on the earlier of (a) 120 days following the date of the filing of this application, or (b) promptly following the acquisition of all required regulatory approvals and the satisfaction of all other conditions precedent thereto. Because this Application, including the attachments hereto, clearly demonstrates that the Commission should approve the proposed merger, KPS respectfully requests that this Application be processed under the following proposed procedural schedule:

IV. MARKET POWER ANALYSES

A. The Georgia-Pacific Entities Lack fforizontal Uarkc=t Power.

The Commission's regulations require that wholesale generators that are authorized to sell electricity and related products at market-based rates demonstrate that they lack horizontal market power in electric generation markets in a trienrzial filing, at a minirriurn.6 For this purpose, the Commission provides two screening analyses: (1) the Wholesale MaAct Share

Screen is intended to evaluate the market share of related generators within a balancing authority

13 during each season of the year. The Pivatal. Supplier Screen is used to evaluate an applicant's market share during peak periods. If an Entity passes both screens, a rebuttahle presumption

arises tha.t the Entity continues to lack horizontal market power.

The Georgia-Pacific Entities pass their Wholesale Market Share Screen analyses, in each

season, for:

4 S4CC't (Attachment 2.1);

4 Entergy ( _Attachincnt 2.2);

^14 SMEPA (Att•aclnient 2.3); and

4 FPL (Attachmetit ?.4).

The Georgia-Pacific Entities pass their Pivotal. Supply Screen analyses for:

4 SOCO (Atiachmtnt 3.1 );

Entergy (Attachment 3:2),

^i SNILP:1 (Attachmertt 3.3); and.

,k FPL (Attachment 3.4),

B. The Georgia-Pacilric Entities Do Not Exercise Vertical Market Power.

The Georgia- Pact iic Entities affirmativelyely state that: neither the Georgia-Pacific Entities-,

nor their affiliates or parent corporations (Georgia-Pacific LLC and ultimately Koch Industries,

Inc.). have erected barrier to entry i^^^: the relevant iiiarkets of the Georgia-Pacific Entities, nor

,wrill they erect barriers to entry in such markets in the future.

The Georgia -Pacific Entities do not okvn, control, or operate any interstate electric

transmission or dastrihutic}n facilities (other than facilities necessary to connect their respective

generating resources to the interstate transmission grid) in the relevant balancing authorities. For

completeness, they disclose (in Attachment, 2.3) that Flint Hill Resources Corpus Christi, LLC

5^^l age

14 ("FTIR"), a subsidiary of 1i11, owns a-50% interest in a 138 kV electric delivery line near Corpus

Christi, rlexns. "the delivery ?ine, IS jointly ovnec1 with fii#go Refining and Chemical Company,

LP ("Citgo") and is used for the limited purpose of rce:eivizlp., Ix)w°er froni Corpus Christi

Cogeneration LP, an unrelated third party that generates electricity deliverable to nearby refineries owned by I'HI2 and by Citgo.

The Applicants further disclose that various related companies own natural gas stub lines for the limited purpose of conneeting to interstate pipeline facilities and re-delivering natural gas to affiliated industrial end users. One of these stub lines is a jurisdictional interstate pipeline, named Crossett Pipeline. Because of its small. size and limited purpose, the Crossett Pipeline was granted awaive,r from the Commission's open access transportation requirements.7

The Georgia-Pacific Lntities do not own or control itatrast:a.te pipelines or natural gas storage assets (please see- Attachment 1.4); rail transportation or barge traffic in commerce; coal mines or equipment; or other significant inputs into electric generation.

V. CONCLUSION

WHEREFORE, the Applicants, the C.aeargia-Paiitic Entities, respectfully reqUCSI, the

Comrnission, to accept their triennial market-power filing., pursuant to Order No. 697 and the rules and regulations established thereunder, and affirm the market-based rate authority previously grantect to the C;^:c>rbia-i''acitic Entities.

Consistent with the Commission's Substantive Rules, the MW amounts reported are the net summer dependable capability ratings of all generation capacity owned and controlled by Koch Power Solutions, LLC and its affiliates. This listing is based on the most conservative approach to identifying relevant generating facilities capable of delivering electricity to ERCOT, which assumes that electricity from these units could be wheeled across intervening transmission systems within SERC, over the HVDC Ties (using the full capacity of those HVDC Ties), and into ERCOT. By including each of these generating facilities in this analysis, Koch Power Solutions, LLC and its affiliates do not concede that these units are capable of delivering electricity to ERCOT.

3 As noted in the Application, customer choice has not been implemented in SERC, and thus the market share limitations in PURA § 39.154 do not apply to the SERC power region. Koch Power Solutions, LLC's and its affiliates provide this analysis for comparative purposes and as further evidence that, post-transaction, Koch Power Solutions, LLC's and its affiliates will not have market power in any power region. 4 See SERC Reliability Corporation Information Summary, July 2013, available at http:/-`www sercl org'"Documents%SERC%SERC"a20Publications%lnformationO/a20Sunimary/2013°i`201nformation°/o2 OS u m mark%20 Brochure°%20( Ju ly%202013 ). pd £.

Docket Style and Number: Application of Koch Power Solutions, LLC Pursuant to

Section 39.158 of the Public Utility Regulatory Act, Docket No.

The Application: Koch Power Solutions, LLC ("Applicant") has filed an application for approval of the proposed acquisition by Applicant of 100% of the ownership interests in Odessa

Power Holdings, LLC (the "Transaction"). Odessa Power Holdings, LLC directly or indirectly owns the Odessa-Ector Power Partners, LP generating facility (the "Odessa Facility"), a 1000

MW combined cycle gas-fired generating facility located in Odessa, Texas, within the ERCOT power region. As a result of the proposed transaction, Odessa Power Holdings, LLC will become a wholly owned, indirect subsidiary of Koch Industries, Inc. The Applicant is required to obtain Commission approval before completing the Transaction if the electricity to be offered for sale in a power region will exceed one percent of the total electricity for sale in the power region if the Application is approved. The Commission shall approve the Application unless the

Commission finds that it results in a violation of Section 39.154 of PURA. Under Section

39.154, a power generation company may not own and control more than 20 percent of the

installed generation capacity located in, or capable of delivering electricity to a power region in

Texas.

Odessa Power Holdings, LLC owns no other generation facility in ERCOT. Following

the acquisition of Odessa Power Holdings, LLC, the combined generation directly and indirectly

34 owned and controlled by Koch Industries, Inc. and its subsidiaries and affiliates will exceed one percent (1%) of the installed generation capacity in ERCOT. However, Applicant has stated that the Transaction will not result in a violation of the installed capacity share limitations set forth in

PURA Section 39.154, which is the sole issue in this proceeding.
