SCHEDULE 55
POWER COST ADJUSTMENT
APPLICABILITY
This schedule is applicable to the electric energy delivered to all Idaho retail Customers served
under the Company’s schedules and Special Contracts. These loads are referred to as "firm" load for
purposes of this schedule.
BASE POWER COST
The Base Power Cost of the Company's rates is computed by dividing the sum of the
Company's power cost components by firm kWh sales. The power cost components are segmented
into three categories: Category 1, Category 2 and Category 3. Category 1 power costs include the sum
of fuel expense and purchased power expense (excluding purchases from cogeneration and small
power producers), less the sum of off-system surplus sales revenue and revenue from market-based
special contract pricing. Category 2 power costs include purchased power expense from cogeneration
and small power producers. Category 3 power costs include demand response incentive payments.
The Base Power Cost is 1.4232 cents per kWh, which is comprised of Category 1 power costs of
0.8935 cents per kWh, Category 2 power costs of 0.4461 cents per kWh and Category 3 power costs of
0.0836 cents per kWh.
PROJECTED POWER COST
The Projected Power Cost is the Company estimate, expressed in cents per kWh, of the
Category 1, Category 2 and Category 3 power cost components for the forecasted time period
beginning April 1 each year and ending the following March 31. The Projected Power Cost is 2.2693
cents per kWh, which is comprised of Category 1 power costs of 1.2996 cents per kWh, Category 2
power costs of 0.9350 cents per kWh and Category 3 power costs of 0.0347 cents per kWh.
TRUE-UP AND TRUE-UP OF THE TRUE-UP
The True-up is based upon the difference between the previous Projected Power Cost and the
power costs actually incurred. The True-up of the True-up is the difference between the previous
year’s approved True-Up revenues and actual revenues collected. The total True-up is 0.4048 cents
per kWh.
EARNINGS SHARING
Order Nos. 30978 and 32424 directed the Company to share a portion of its earnings above a
certain threshold with customers through the annual Power Cost Adjustment. The following rate
schedules will receive a rate reduction benefit associated with the Company’s 2012 earnings in the
form of a cents per kWh rate, which was quantified in Case No. IPC-E-13-10. The Company’s Special
Contract customers will receive rate reduction benefits associated with the Company’s 2012 earnings in
the form of a monthly credit for each month of the rate effective period.
