  3. Company Objectives • Secure competitively priced power supply for 2009 and beyond • Process design should encourage large number of bidders • Proper assignment of risk • Neutral financial position for utilities • Utilities neither make nor lose money as POLR • Mitigate wholesale market volatility • Multiple solicitations • Provide customers with rate options

  4. Two options proposed: • Load Class Alternative • Supply procured separately for residential, general service-small, and general service-large • Winning prices for a class directly determines retail price for all customers in the group • Slice of System Alternative • Supply procured on a total load basis • Retail prices administratively determined based upon outcome of competitive bidding process.

  5. Procurement Process • Declining clock bidding format • Suppliers bid to provide energy, capacity, transmission service, transmission ancillaries • Nominal 100 MW tranches • Multiple solicitations; Three year ladder

  6. Procurement Process • Independent manager for competitive bidding process, with PUCO oversight • Affiliates may bid but all bidders limited to 75% of volume • Load Class – applies separately to each class • PUCO to approve solicitation results within 2 business days • Proposed annual review of process conducted by PUCO

  7. Procurement Process • Load being served under Hourly Price Service option procured separately • Renewable Energy • One tranche will be filled through separate process in September 2008 • Suppliers provide same product plus 1 Renewable Energy Credit for every megawatthour supplied • Slice of System: one tranche from September 2008 • Load Class: one tranche from Residential, 41 month, August 2008 auction • CEI ‘special contract’ load supplied through auction • Winning bidders paid clearing price

  8. Master Supply Agreement • Standard for all winning bidders • Seasonal Payment factors • Protection for bidders from new RTO charges • Suppliers have no uncollectible risk due to retail customer non-payment. • Winning bidders must be MISO market participant • Winning bidders assume MISO’s Load Serving Entity responsibilities • Must join MISO’s Planning Reserve Sharing Group

  9. Retail Rates and Programs • Generation rates conform to distribution tariff changes • No declining block rates; no demand charges • Market based seasonality reflected in retail rates • More appropriate price signals to customers, encouraging conservation during higher priced summer months • Quarterly Reconciliation • Ensures that Companies neither make nor lose money

  10. Retail Rates and Programs • Time of Day Rates (optional) • Customers can benefit from managing usage patterns • Hourly Priced Service (optional) • Load Response Program (optional) • Potential Phase-In of Rates for Residential Customers • 2009 only • Limits change in average rate to 15% • The Companies would defer purchased power expense to reduce rate increase to 15% with maximum deferral of $150 million

  11. Avoidable Charges • Load Class: • Equal to the SSO Generation Charge • Slice of System: • Class Allocation Factors generally maintain relationship between existing average kWh generation and transmission rate of the load classes • Avoidable charge equal to the lower of the blended competitive bid price multiplied by the supplier seasonal billing factor adjusted for distribution line losses and applicable taxes, or the customer’s SSO Generation Charge

  31. When Does A Price Tick Down? • If there aremore tranches bid than the number of tranches neededat the current round price for that product • The price for a product ticks down for the next round At the start of the solicitation, prices tick down by more than at the end • Start (regime 1): 0.5% to 5% • End (regime 2): 0.25% to 2.5%
