2020 RRS Annual Assessment

18

Highlights • Based on the forecasted load, firm generation capacity, and firm DSM, the projected subregional reserve margin remains well above 15 percent throughout the 10-year planning horizon. In addition, no adverse impacts to the reserve margins have been identified due to generation retirements. • Significant proposed gas pipeline projects (Sabal Trail Phases II and III) are expected to provide increased gas transportation capacity to peninsular Florida and be fully in-service in 2021. These projects will enhance fuel transportation reliability by increasing supply and delivery diversity for the FL-Peninsula subregion.
