Subject: NRG Deals

Kay/Chris:

Ben asked me to get involved in the NRG deal(s) that we are working on.  As I
understand it, we are working on 2 potential deals:

 1.  With the NRG San Diego group on the sale of the [March 2001] GE 7EA.

 2.  With the NRG Thermal group on the sale of one or more LM 6000 turbines.

Ben indicated that we need to have a CA in place that covers the delivery of
transaction documents to the San Diego group.  Ben also mentioned that Jim
Gilbert (Enron West Coast) has executed a CA with the NRG Thermal group.

Kay:  Does the CA executed with the NRG Thermal group contain language that
covers the delivery of documents to both NRG groups?

Chris:  Has any form of draft CA been provided to the NRG San Diego group?

Please let me know the answers to these questions.  I am in the office all
this week and will work with both of you to help move these deals forward.

Fred


Rob:
In case we don't get a chance to talk, just some thoughts on chnages that mat
need to be made to the ISDA Schedule:

1. Part 1 (b) - this is where we will specify the Threshold Amount for cross
default to other debt (Section 5(a)(vi) purposes.  Please note that the
definition of Specified Indebtedness in the ISDA is very narrow.  Let Mark
Taylor know if that needs to be amended.  Alos, let Mark know if the cross
default language itself needs to be amended to match the Supply Agreement.

2. Part 1 (h) - this section contemplates adding Additional Termination
Events.  I had thought that here we would add a cross default to the
Transaction Documents.  Mark will need input from you on what those are.
Additionally, it would be here that we would add some of the other trigger
events that are currently in the Supply Agreement.  Again, Mark will need
your input on what those are.

3. Please look at the language in sections 5(a)(vii)(bankruptcy) and
5(b)(iv)(credit event upon merger) of the ISDA form and advise Mark as to
whether any changes need to be made to conform with what is in the Supply
Agreement.

I'm assuming that the other parts of the schedule will be agreed to by them.
Please note that in Part 1(e) we have chosen the "Loss" method as a means for
calculating the termination payment.  In Part 3, these are the docs that we
usually get but if the Supply Agreement requires something different,
particularly with respect to financial info, we can modify accordingly.    In
part 4, we have chosen arbitration and Texas as governing law.  Part 5 is
mostly boilerplate, but note the "setoff" language and the "transfer"
language, which they may comment on.  part 6 is boilerplate.

Mark's number is 853-7459.  I'll be back Wednesday afternoon.

__________________

 I spoke with Bill Hawkins (Premier's Office)  to day and made the following
points: a) the messages from the Premier/Wilson are still ambiguous and
unclear; b) we will need clarification on three questions: 1) Is May 2002 a
deadline (as per Wilson) or a target (as per Harris)?; 2) Is the gov't still
prepared to consider a Fall opening if the 4 conditions are met?; and 3) Is
the return of  the first Pickering A unit a pre-condition to market opening?
- if it is, then any question about a Fall opening is moot since the earliest
that unit will come back is December 31, 2001 (and more likely
later).                          I did not press Bill for answers today but
indicated that we would need clarification on these issues as soon as
possible to stay engaged in the way that he wants us to. I outlined the
interpretation that we had been encouraged  by Ministry of Energy to put on
the message.  Importantly, Bill did not "shut down" our preferred
interpretation.                                     Bill made three points:
a) the critical factor in the announcement was continuing concern about the
circumstances in California and the difficulties that California presents for
making the decision to press ahead this year;   b) on the political front,
the key opposition to moving ahead will come from the NDP rather than the
Liberals: he wants us to help keep the Liberals on the sidelines;  and c) the
gov't  (Ministry of Energy) is going to work on fleshing out over the next
several weeks how they will assess when the 4 conditions will be satisfied
and he wanted our help in that
process.                                             I told Bill that we
wanted to stay engaged but that our immediate interest was getting
appropriate clarification of the message.                        Following
Bill's call, I heard from Joel Singer, VP at OPG, who indicated that Floyd
Laughren had assured OPG yesterday that the OEB was still targeting a Fall
opening in its retail readiness efforts.  Singer did indicate, however, that
OPG's  own demand supply assessment was not  as positive as our own and that
concerns about the demand/suppy balance was continuing to be a big hurdle to
get over.                            The IMO is also sticking with its
testing/commissioning timeline and is not altering it in light of the
announcement on Monday.                          `

Subject:	Turnback of Enron's Block 2 Capacity on El Paso
Importance:	High

Jim, please see me about this issue.  As you can see, Leslie and I have been working extensively with Stephanie Miller for the last few weeks as she is trying to find a way to get rid of our 200,000 MMBtu/day of Block 2 capacity on El Paso.  In fact, I provided Stephanie an analysis of the regulatory history as far back as last March, even before we signed up for the capacity.  You will probably be getting some questions about it from Barry or maybe even Lavarato before too long since getting rid of this asset is very high on their priority list.  I wanted you to be up to speed on our input so far.

The CPUC was heavily involved in the settlement and their interest is making sure that northern CA has access to the SJ supplies.  Their concern is not the same as PG&E's.  And to the extent anything is agreed to, reopening the settlement is an enormous can of worms, and I don't think we want to go there.  We would have to be able to structure a side deal to where PG&E and SoCal are in agreement that the recall rights they got in the settlement can be waived.

Steph - Leslie and I were just talking about this, and one thing we need to keep in mind is that any attempt to modify the PG&E recall rights would almost certainly be opposed by the CPUC, especially if it was to benefit Enron.

I thought you understood from my email and phone call that I was going to track down El Paso's interpretation of the 24 hours recall rights.  Regulatory treatment of the 58 million by PG&E is a CPUC issue.  I just talked to Becky and I don't have a good response to the question of whether our capacity could replace expansion capacity in light of the dueling recall rights, but I will think about it and talk to Becky some more.

As to the 24-hour recall, I can only tell you what the FERC order says, I have no special knowledge of how El Paso and the parties intended the 24 recall to work.  The order is fairly terse, and just says "and if it so recalled (by PG&E), that Enron may further recall the capacity for its own use in the PG&E  service territory upon 24 hours notice."  The language says to me that you can recall it 24 hours before you want to use it.  However, I can call El Paso and find out how they interpret it.

As to the "traditional rate making" valuation of the $58 million, I have to confess I don't understand what you mean.  PG&E paid the 58 million as part of a negotiated settlement.  Typically that is part of a black box settlement, meaning that revenue dollars are not tracked to particular costs.  We can pull the settlement and see if it stipulates some sort of treatment, but I would doubt it.  If your question relates to how PG&E is tracking that expense in a regulatory sense, perhaps Jeff Dasovich can find out.

When is the 24 hour notice on re-recall effective - 24 hours from the day of recall (varies depending on term) or 24 hours before the recall is supposed to start?

How would you value what's left of the $58 million that PG&E paid based upon traditional rate making policies? I believe there are at least 5 years left on the term of the settlement.

Please call if you have any questions,

Stephanie

  BUSINESS TO BUSINESS
  Step Right Up and Buy a Megawatt!
  By MATTHEW L. WALD

  09/20/2000
  The New York Times
  Page 15, Column 1
  c. 2000 New York Times Company

  MANY Web sites scream about what they will sell you for next to nothing, or
less. But how
  about a site that pays you not to buy?

  A strange notion, but one that has more solid economic underpinnings than
many of those
  desperate give-it-away dot-coms. Then again, the commodity in question is
not the typical
  stuff of e-commerce transactions, like a plane ticket from Cincinnati to
Nashville next
  Thursday or a vintage Barbie doll or 20,000 widgets of a certain shape.
This promising new
  business is using e-commerce for a commodity that absolutely everybody
needs:
  electricity.

  As it turns out, one kilowatt may look like another, but its price may vary
by a factor of
  more than 100 in a single day. At night a kilowatt-hour -- the amount of
electricity needed to
  light 10 100-watt bulbs for an hour -- may sell for a penny or two, because
most of the
  generating capacity is unused. But on a hot afternoon, in places where the
market is
  deregulated, the same amount of power could cost $1 or $5, or even more.

  Traditionally, though, utilities charge most customers pretty much the same
price for the
  kilowatt-hour no matter what they pay to buy it or if they generate it
themselves. Even
  companies with time-of-day rates are charging a price that varies by only a
few pennies
  from peak to off-peak.

  But as California approached a summer of tight electricity supplies this
year, Pacific Gas
  and Electric started an e-commerce marketplace where customers could be
paid not to
  buy. In theory, the system would work with any customer, but it is only
practical with big
  consumers, mostly businesses, because otherwise the number of transactions
becomes
  hard to manage.

  As the state danced on the edge of rotating blackouts, the company quickly
applied to
  regulators for permission to expand its program, called E-Bid. The system
works like this:
  every afternoon, the utility gets an estimate of what power will cost on
the wholesale market
  the next day. When the price is high, the utility notifies big customers
that have signed up
  for its program, alerting them to log on to a secure Web site.

  There, according to Ronald K. Lowe, a company spokesman, the estimated
price is
  posted. If the customer, generally a factory, is willing to cut its
consumption 20 percent
  from its normal level, then it accepts the bid, and the utility pays the
customer the posted
  price, minus the normal retail cost per kilowatt-hour. If the bulk price is
$250 a
  megawatt-hour, for example, that makes electricity 25 cents a
kilowatt-hour, compared with
  a typical price to the factory of 5 cents or so. For every kilowatt-hour
that the factory does
  not use on the next day, the company pays 20 cents.

  The transaction has two functions. It cuts the risk of the grid running
short of power and
  causing a blackout. And by reducing the peak demand, it takes a few buyers
out of the
  market and makes the price lower for the remaining buyers. As the summer
ended,
  proponents of this kind of marketing said that the unanticipated price
swings, especially in
  places like San Diego, where some customers faced bills that had tripled,
showed the
  necessity for making hourly prices obvious to electricity users, so that
they would not
  blithely continue with normal consumption patterns at times of
extraordinary price spikes.

  But the California program is still small; on one tough day this summer,
July 31, 29
  customers participated, cutting demand by 40 megawatts, compared with a
peak demand
  of 21,000 megawatts.

  Pacific Gas and Electric charges customers $600 to enter the program and
requires that
  they be able to cut demand by at least 500 kilowatts, which is enough to
run about 100 big
  houses. But it has applied for permission to cut the entry fee to $100 and
take applicants
  who can cut demand by only 250 kilowatts.

  Such transactions are only possible through electronic commerce, but by
setting just one
  price in a 24-hour period, P.G.& E.'s system is hardly taking full
advantage. Wisconsin
  Electric Power began a more flexible system this summer in which it invites
big customers
  to log on to a site, where it offers a price per kilowatt-hour not used. If
it does not attract
  enough bidders to meet its needs, it can post a new bid price a few minutes
later.

  Such transactions could apply the market forces that already exist at the
wholesale level to
  the level of the electricity user, possibly even a homeowner.

  ''There's been a whole lot of debate over the years as to whether or not an
average
  consumer will ever shift consumption based on price principles,'' said
Scott A. Weiner, a
  senior vice president of Sithe Northeast, an independent power producer.
''On the other
  hand, people who run large office buildings or factories can get those
price signals in a very
  strong way,'' said Mr. Weiner, a former environmental commissioner for New
Jersey.

  BUT, he said, at the moment, there is a supply curve -- a changing level of
the amount
  available, depending on the price offered -- but no real demand curve,
because the buyers
  do not know what the price is and thus cannot respond. Demand is therefore
not affected
  by price.

  ''In the absence of a demand response, nobody can ever say, 'The price is
too high, I'm not
  going to pay that,' '' Mr. Weiner said. ''As load response programs come
into development,
  it's clear the Web will play a very vital part of making that real and
accessible.''

  A second form of e-commerce is emerging on a business-to-business model,
and it's one of
  the few forms that the government has required. It is called Oasis, for
Open Access
  Same-Time Information System, ordered by the Federal Energy Regulatory
Commission.
  Oasis gives companies that build free-standing power plants a way to market
their power
  and for companies that consume electricity a way to see the market. Oasis
systems are
  increasingly operated by new entities called Independent System Operators,
which have
  been formed on the East Coast and in California to run the transmission
grids that were
  formerly controlled by electric utilities.

  The systems vary from place to place, but are supposed to show the price of
electricity,
  sometimes broken down by location, to take account of transmission
bottlenecks.

  At the California Independent System Operator, William H. Simmons, the
manager of
  market applications, development and support, said that some aspects of
electricity trading
  existed years ago on electronic bulletin boards. But the ability of users
to identify available
  transmission links and schedule their use depended on the Web. ''It could
not have
  happened if it were not for the Internet,'' he said. The Independent System
Operator works
  with the California Power Exchange to arrange delivery of the power that
generators and
  customers contract for on the exchange.

  Both Oasis and programs like E-Bid have the potential to adjust electricity
use to reflect
  costs, experts say, and that would be one way to hold down peak demand and
thus make
  the system less prone to overload.

  Eric Hirst, an energy consultant in Oak Ridge, Tenn., and a former
scientist at the national
  laboratory there, speaking at a conference in Washington this spring on
reliability problems,
  said the result would contrast with the former pattern of electricity use.
When people know
  the price of a product they are consuming, they behave differently,
economists say; in the
  case of electricity, they will consume it in relation to its seasonal price
or even hourly price.

  As Mr. Hirst said, ''When people used to pay 5 cents a kilowatt-hour, it
didn't matter to
  them whether electricity was free or $2 a kilowatt-hour.''

  Graph: ''Lights Out'' Californians use so much electricity that the state
is flirting with
  blackouts. And because of deregulation , prices are sharply higher,
especially in peak
  periods. Now, utilities are paying some big customers to cut their
consumption during
  those periods. Below, the California Power Exchange's output and prices for
one day last
  June. Graph shows output compared to price. (Source: California Power

Report: US Transition To Competitive Pwr Markets Muddled

09/20/2000
Dow Jones Energy Service
(Copyright (c) 2000, Dow Jones & Company, Inc.)

(This article was originally published Tuesday)

WASHINGTON -(Dow Jones)- The U.S. electricity sector is mired in a "prolonged
and muddled transition" from
regulated monopolies to competitive markets, and the political arena offers
little hope of fixing the problem,
according to the authors of a new report from Cambridge Energy Research
Associates and Arthur Andersen.

The report, "Electric Power Trends 2001," paints a picture of inefficiently
structured and balkanized power markets
hampered by inelastic demand and a gridlocked power grid.

With myriad special interests involved in framing the debate, politicians at
neither the state nor the federal level are
likely to resolve the problems anytime soon, said Cambridge Energy's Lawrence
Makovich and Arthur Andersen's
Jon Wierda.

"Unfortunately, the power industry right now is muddling through," Makovich
said. "There isn't an effective political
process to sort this out."

"We don't see this as something that's going to have a quick fix," agreed
Wierda.

The solution to the problem is "expert design," rather than the political
process, Makovich said.

The report assesses the status of electric industry competition two years
after California became the first state to
deregulate and open up its retail power market.

And with California's ill-designed and flawed market restructuring causing a
headline-grabbing power-supply crisis,
there is an increasing risk that a backlash will cause policymakers to
re-regulate the industry, Makovich said.

Already a half-dozen states have moved to slow down previously approved plans
to open up power markets to
competition, Makovich said, citing New Mexico, North Carolina and Oklahoma as
among those.

"There are right ways and wrong ways to put a competitive market together,"
he said, critical of the "serious flaws"
in California's approach, which contributed to a dearth in investment in
generation and transmission capacity.

The report identified a number of what it deemed surprises in the wake of
California's first-in-the-nation
deregulation experiment.

Among them, the report cited:

- A patchwork quilt of restructured markets has developed, the result of the
failure of Congress to issue a top-down
restructuring mandate providing "immediate and sweeping changes." As of 2003,
only half of U.S. electricity
consumers will have a choice among competitive power providers, the report
found.

- In states where customers do have a choice among competitive providers,
they are choosing not to choose. "Less
than 1% of electric customers switched from a traditional supplier in 1999,
even though more than 20% of retail
customers could choose among alternative power suppliers," the report found.

- The lack of investment in transmission interconnections has contributed to
balkanized power markets with "sharp
locational price differentials," the report said.

- Volatility in power markets once deemed abnormal is rapidly becoming the
norm, despite flourishing competitive
spot markets for wholesale power.

- This market volatility has prompted what could become "an electric supply
tsunami," as proposals have been
advanced to build 240,000 megawatts of generation capacity, an amount
equivalent to one-third of the existing
capacity in the U.S.

- Transmission capacity has declined and bottlenecks aren't being resolved,
contributing to increased threats of
blackouts and brownouts. The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission's order on
regional transmission
organizations puts the issue at "center stage," the report said. "However,
the order is not a bold move to confront
gridlock."

Many of the surprises identified in the report are interwoven with one
another.

For instance, the potential for supply to overwhelm demand, represented by
the large number of new power plant
proposals, is exacerbated by the economics of the industry that provide an
incentive to keep older plants operating.

There are 40,000 megawatts of new power plant capacity now under
construction, and another 30,000 megawatts
for which developers are seeking permits to build, Makovich said. Even with a
50% failure rate, that represents two
to three times the amount needed, he said.

And the surprise doubling in natural gas prices over the past year
complicates those development plans, since 93%
of the planned projects involve gas-fired plants, the report said. The report
attributed the doubling in gas prices to a
lack of coordination between investments in natural gas supply and power
generation.

"High gas prices make old plants all the more valuable," said Makovich.

Further, the surprising value of divested power plants, many of which are
more than 30 years old, and which sold for
as much as four times book value, has resulted in utilities' stranded
investment being much less than anticipated.

The gridlocked transmission network complicates the "misalignment
geographically" of much of the planned power
plant development, Makovich said. He noted that California, where there is a
severe supply crisis, hasn't built a new
plant in a decade, while Texas is overbuilding.

Makovich credited ill-designed markets with the failure of retail customers
to switch power suppliers.

A key component of California's supply crisis was the "well-intentioned"
decision to impose a rate freeze for retail
customers until the state's three investor-owned utilities paid down their
stranded investment, Makovich said.

But without retail customers receiving a price signal allowing them to react
to growing market volatility, there was no
demand response, and the volatility was exacerbated.

The California market design left San Diego's consumers subject to
spot-market pricing just as the supply crisis
caused by the price freeze erupted, he said.

"The companies with active management able to react to surprises are the
companies that will survive" the
transition, said Wierda. The "tsunami" of power plant investment will require
a portfolio approach to asset
management, he said.

Successful companies will be headed by chief executive officers who act as
"chief risk officers," he said.

 Escaping Rate Freeze

  PG&E Corp. is banking on the proposed sale of its extensive Northern
California
  hydropower operations to help it get out from under a consumer-rate freeze
that the
  company says has cost it $2.2 billion this summer. The San Francisco-based
company's
  utility unit, Pacific Gas & Electric Co., wants to sell the 4,000-megawatt
hydroelectric
  system -- the largest network in North America -- to an unregulated fellow
affiliate. Such a
  move would generate upward of $2.8 billion in cash and allow the utility to
pay off its
  so-called stranded costs, principally expensive nuclear-power plants. Once
that happens,
  the utility said in filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange
Commission, it intends to
  seek permission from state regulators to end the consumer-rate cap. Under
the state's
  1996 electric- deregulation law, PG&E would then be free to raise rates and
recoup
  losses caused by this summer's spike in the wholesale electricity price.

you come back.

Bye.

The Supreme Court hearing for the case in India regarding the alleged
improper bidding and award of the Panna/Mukta block concluded today.  Our
legal team's opinion is very optimistic based on the way the proceeding
progressed and also on the actions of the chief judge during the concluding
arguments of the case today in India.

The panel of three judges will now take approximately 2 months to write their
opinion and that should complete this case.  While I probably shouldn't
speculate on the outcome, I will summarize my opinion of the important
points:  1) there is little doubt that the Panna/Mukta award to
Enron/Reliance/ONGC will stand, and  2) it is highly unlikely that the judges
will request the PSC to be renegotiated, the contract was portrayed and
generally accepted by the panel as a very fair deal for the GOI.  According
to my general counsel, Stephen Wallace, the only concern our team has is that
the judges were quite critical of the CBI (the government group that
investigated Reliance for wrong doing in the bid process) during that portion
of the testimony and there is a possibility that they could request an
additional investigation.  Our team puts the likelihood of the judges
ordering a new investigation at less than 50%.  There is downside to such a
decision in that it creates uncertainty, but the focus would be on Reliance,
not Enron.

Enron was very prepared on the commercial and the legal front and our team,
as expected, carried the load for this case even though we were not the
primary defendants.  Enron presented the major rebuttal to the CPIL
assertions because the others were not prepared and then later "coached" the
others to help them prepare appropriately.   This was a much more intensive
case than people were assuming it would be last year and we were very
fortunate to be extremely well prepared and well represented.

Based on the above information,  I do not think this issue "CPIL lawsuit"
should  impact any future decisions we make regarding the Panna/ Mukta/Tapti
assets.  This outcome basically eliminates one of the two issues impeding the
progress of  the  project I showed Joe, our proposal to sell
Panna/Mukta/Tapti, that we call Project Janus.  We believe we have a unique
opportunity to realize exceptional value for these assets through an
arrangement with our partner.  The strategy we have mapped out should  allow
us to close the transaction prior to year-end and it has very positive cash
flow and neutral financial implications (minimal if any gain due to the
step-up last year) for the company.   The only remaining hurdle is a tax
issue that we are currently working.
