Penalties

Power Cost Adjustment
(Formerly the Fuel Adjustment Clause)
A Power Cost Adjustment (PCA) factor will be included in each bill for service rendered. The adjustment shall be the product of the total kilowatt-hours times the PCA. The PCA will be adjusted as determined by the Utility Office based on increases/decreases in purchased power cost, fuel cost, ash disposal fees, environmental fees and other fuel related costs. The PCA is in units of $/KWH and is applied to those KWH sales that are subject to the PCA.
The formula used to calculate PCA is as follows:
PCA=(PRC-(BASE*KWHSOLD))/KWHPCA
Where
PRC = Power related costs including purchased power, fuel, ash disposal, environmental costs and fuel related costs.
BASE = Base of power related cost included in the existing rates. This value is 0.06893 $/KWH
KWHSOLD = Retail sales of electricity (KWH), includes all rate classes except it does not include sales to City owned facilities.
KWHPCA = Retail sales of electricity (KWH) subject to PCA Adjustment.
