As part of your response, please include each customer's monthly energy consumption, demand, generation, and excess energy. SUPPLEMENTAL RESPONSE TO REQUEST NO. 9: Following the submission of the Company's response to Staff's Request for Production No. 9, it was discovered that for certain customers in certain months, excess net energy figures used in the analysis were inconsistent with kilowatt-hour ("kWh") figures actually credited to customers and reflected in the Company's Power Cost Adjustment (PCA) mechanism. These inconsistencies were the result of manual bill overrides that were necessary to properly bill these customers in these months. The manual overrides associated with excess net energy were not captured by the report utilized to prepare the analysis in the Company's initial response to Staffs Request for Production No. 9, resulting in inconsistencies between certain excess net energy values used in the Company's analysis and amounts actually credited to customers. To reconcile the analysis provided in the Company's initial response to Staff's Request for Production No. 9 with excess net energy credited to customers in 2012, please see the confidential Excel file provided on the confidential disk. This file lists by customer and month revised kWh figures that reflect actual excess net energy credited over the 2012 billing year. Because the Excel file is confidential, it will only be provided to those parties who have executed the Protective Agreement in place in this matter. The response to this Request was prepared by Matthew T. Larkin, Regulatory Analyst II, Idaho Power Company, in consultation with Julia A. Hilton, Corporate Counsel, Idaho Power Company.
