AI summary The text discusses the proposed ELID Tariff, contrasting it with the ELIADC Tariff, particularly the absence of a Variable Capital Charge (VCC) component. It highlights concerns that PHP's DR credit ratio change may not adequately account for VCC payments, which could exceed 20-30% of DR benefits. InterGroup argues the proposal's complexity warrants further reasonableness testing.

AI summary The respondent notes that the Goose Harbour generation estimate in the COSS uses a conservative P90 output level (exceeded 90% of the time), suggesting a P50 level (equal probability of higher/lower output) would be more appropriate for setting the ELID Energy Charge. However, they argue transitioning to P50 at 168 MW capacity lacks justification without actual operational performance data.

AI summary The text discusses the scheduling and dispatch of PHP's load in 2025, highlighting that actual load diverged from forecasts but was managed economically. The CBL Energy Charge was based on a prior forecast and not revised, leading to variances in actual costs. Adjustments to PHP's energy requirements were influenced by system and market conditions rather than forecast error.

AI summary The current process to determine generation serving PHP involves running two models in PortOps, one with PHP's load and one without. Running this process multiple times for each Cause Code could create conflicts and invalidate results due to unit start and stop discrepancies. PH Biomass is a must-run unit and remains unaffected in these models.
