Since the QF installed the 7.45 MW nameplate capacity, has the Company
encountered actual capacity deficiency periods? Please provide a list all
generation facilities or power purchase agreements that were added to meet the
need for capacity during the any periods of deficiency.
Response to IPUC Data Request 5
Since the original power purchase agreement (PPA) between Bonneville Pacific
Corporation and Utah Power and Light Company (UP&L) dated December 4,
1984, the Company has encountered actual capacrty deficiency periods. For
example, immediately prior to ldaho Public Utilities Commission (IPUC) Order

deficiency under the Surrogate Avoided Resource (SAR) methodology was
assumed to begin in 2013. Please refer to Attachment IPUC 5 for a list of long-
term resources added since 2007 that are delivering to the Company now or are
contracted to do so in the future.
