1 Q HOW SHOULD PHP'S DEMANDS BE REFLECTED IN A 3-CP DEMAND 2 ALLOCATION BASED ON COST CAUSATION PRINCIPLES? 3 A PHP's firm peak demand will require NS Power to incur resource capacity costs to 4 reliably serve its ATL customers system coin...

AI summary PHP's firm peak demand requires NS Power to incur resource capacity costs and should be included in the 3-CP allocator, while interruptible demand does not require such costs and should be excluded. Transmission planning also does not require additional investment for PHP's load, supporting minimal allocation. This aligns with cost causation principles.

AI summary The Dispatchable Rider (DR) under the ELID rate provides PHP with significant benefits, including compensation for load variation and access to NSP's embedded resources. The DR is unprecedented in Canada and allows PHP to shift load without obligation, though NSP retains dynamic dispatch rights. This arrangement is clarified in a 2026 Technical Conference.
