KEMA, Inc., a consulting firm, evaluated demand-side and generation options for<br />

Dominion.” KEMA was not part <strong>of</strong> the planning process. Its evaluation was<br />

done months after Dominion had already committed to the Loudoun line. KEMA<br />

was hired to bolster Dominion’s filing with the SCC.<br />

KEMA did not consider viable demand and generation options. Furthermore,<br />

KEMA ignored transmission, generation, and demand management options that<br />

could in combination displace the Loudoun line.<br />

KEMA‘s analysis was overly simplistic. Its conclusion that a massive new<br />

transmission line is the best solution is not justified. See Appendix B for details.<br />
