l 8 MW firm portion, before conversion to kVA, are proposed to be the same.[14](#page-7-5) On this basis, PHP argues that the interruptible credit to PHP should be set at $13.107/kVA.[15](#page-7-6) InterGroup notes the following important...

AI summary PHP proposes an interruptible credit rate of $13.107/kVA, but InterGroup challenges NSP's methodology, arguing it incorrectly uses a 65 MW determinant instead of PHP's actual peak load data (124 MW average, 155 MW peak). The discussion centers on the validity of the credit calculation and energy sales forecast assumptions.

3.2 Issues Associated With Application of the DR
re to the high (and uncertain) marginal cost generation, and such costs are now borne by all customers. So the move to ATL is a trade-off for PHP including benefits and costs, not solely a new cost. More substantively, the design of the pr...

ELIADC's benefits were overvalued (56% below expectations), as per Bates White's report. Solutions include adjusting CBL to reflect seasonal demand or sharing savings.
