AI summary Figure 7 compares actual and test year unit variable generation costs for 2025 and 2024. It shows the net fuel and purchased power costs, sales in GWh, and unit variable costs in cents per kWh, highlighting changes in costs between the actual and test years.

Q. How can one check if rates are set below short-run marginal cost? p. p. 24
Q. How can one check if rates are set below short-run marginal cost? A. In checking that rates are set above short-run marginal costs, a useful rule of thumb is that the average revenue per kWh, exclusive of revenue from customer charges,...

AI summary To check if rates are set below short-run marginal cost, the average revenue per kWh (excluding customer charges) should not be less than the average marginal energy cost. This is known as the Short-Run Marginal Cost (SRMC) Test, and further considerations depend on the specific rate being evaluated.
