Â

Good Afternoon Kelli,

Â

Further to my voicemail from this morning, Essex Powerlines has reviewed the draft 2017 IRM rate generator model and has identified two charges that are missing from the final tariff schedules.  As shown below, the General Service 3,000 to 4,999 KW service classification tariff schedule has not calculated the retail transmission rates and the shared tax savings rate.

Â

GENERAL SERVICE 3,000 TO 4,999 KW SERVICE CLASSIFICATION

This classification refers to a non residential account whose monthly average peak demand is equal to or greater than, or is forecast to be equal to or greater than, 3,000 kW but less than 5,000 kW. Further servicing details are available in the distributor's Conditions of Service.

Â

Â

Â

Â

APPLICATION

Â

Â

Â

Â

The application of these rates and charges shall be in accordance with the Licence of the Distributor and any Code or Order of the Ontario Energy Board, and amendments thereto as approved by the Ontario Energy Board, which may be applicable to the administration of this schedule.

Â

Â

Â

Â

No rates and charges for the distribution of electricity and charges to meet the costs of any work or service done or furnished for the purpose of the distribution of electricity shall be made except as permitted by this schedule, unless required by the Distributor’s Licence or a Code or Order of the Ontario Energy Board, and amendments thereto as approved by the Ontario Energy Board, or as specified herein.

Â

Â

Â

Â

Unless specifically noted, this schedule does not contain any charges for the electricity commodity, be it under the Regulated Price Plan, a contract with a retailer or the wholesale market price, as applicable. In addition, the charges in the MONTHLY RATES AND CHARGES - Regulatory Component of this schedule do not apply to a customer that is an embedded wholesale market participant.

Â

Â

Â

Â

It should be noted that this schedule does not list any charges, assessments or credits that are required by law to be invoiced by a distributor and that are not subject to Ontario Energy Board approval, such as the Debt Retirement Charge, the Global Adjustment and the HST.
