Current through all regulations passed and filed through December 11, 2023
(A)
For purposes of
this rule, the following definitions shall apply:
(1)
"Energy
efficiency" has the meaning set forth in paragraph (N) of rule
4901:1-39-01 of the
Administrative Code.
(2)
"Renewable energy resource" has the meaning set forth
in division (A)(37) of section
4928.01 of the Revised
Code.
(B)
Each electric distribution utility (EDU) shall list on
all customer bills sent by the EDU, the individual customer cost of compliance
for paragraphs (B)(1), (B)(2), and (B)(3) of this rule for the applicable
billing period. Consolidated bills set by the EDU, which include supplier
charges, shall include the EDU's individual customer cost of compliance for
paragraphs (B)(1), (B)(2) and (B)(3) of this rule for the applicable billing
period.
(1)
The renewable energy resource requirement under section
4928.64 of the Revised Code.
This cost shall be calculated as the sum of the following:
(a)
The customer's
usage in megawatt-hours for the applicable billing period, multiplied by the
statutory solar percentage requirement pursuant to division (B)(2) of section
4928.64 of the Revised Code for
the year in which the bill is issued, multiplied by the average of the Ohio
solar and other solar renewable energy credit (REC) costs for EDUs as reported
in the commission's most recent compliance report provided to the general
assembly; and
(b)
The customer's usage in megawatt-hours for the
applicable billing period, multiplied by the statutory non-solar percentage
requirement pursuant to division (B)(2) of section
4928.64 of the Revised Code for
the year in which the bill is issued, multiplied by the average of the Ohio
non-solar and other non-solar REC costs for EDUs as reported by the
commission's most recent compliance report provided to the general assembly.
The statutory non-solar requirement shall equal the total statutory renewable
requirement net of the solar requirement.
(c)
In the event
that the commission's compliance report provided to the general assembly does
not include separate REC costs for Ohio and other resources, the EDU solar and
EDU non-solar REC costs as presented in the report should be inserted into the
calculation where applicable.
(2)
The energy
efficiency savings requirements under section
4928.66 of the Revised Code.
This cost shall be calculated as follows:
(a)
The customer's
usage in kilowatt-hours for the applicable billing period multiplied by the
currently effective energy efficiency/peak demand reduction rider that is
applicable to the customer, exclusive of any amounts related to collection of
lost distribution revenue.
(b)
The amount from
paragraph (B)(2)(a) of this rule shall be multiplied by the proportion of the
energy efficiency/peak demand reduction rider that is associated with energy
efficiency savings requirement compliance costs. For purposes of calculating
this proportion, all costs represented in the energy efficiency/peak demand
reduction rider shall be allocated either to energy efficiency requirements
compliance or peak demand reduction requirements compliance. Alternatively, the
EDU may multiply the amount from paragraph (B)(2)(a) of this rule by eighty per
cent.
(3)
The peak demand reduction requirements under section
4928.66 of the Revised Code.
This cost shall be calculated as follows:
(a)
The customer's
usage in kilowatt-hours for the applicable billing period shall be multiplied
by the currently effective energy efficiency/peak demand reduction rider that
is applicable to the customer, exclusive of any amounts related to collection
of lost distribution revenue.
(b)
The amount from
paragraph (B)(3)(a) of this rule shall be multiplied by the proportion of the
energy efficiency/peak demand reduction requirement rider that is associated
with peak demand reduction requirements compliance costs. For the purpose of
calculating this proportion, all costs represented in the energy
efficiency/peak demand reduction rider shall be allocated either to the energy
efficiency requirements compliance or peak demand reduction requirements
compliance. Alternatively, the EDU may multiply the amount from paragraph
(B)(3)(a) of this rule by twenty per cent.
(4)
Each of these
costs shall be listed on each customer's monthly bill as a distinct line
item.
