1. Settlement System under ABT Regime -Prepared by -V.Balaji, -Chief Manager(comml), -SRLDC, Bangalore -Presented by -P.Bhaskara Rao -DGM (comml)

2. WHAT IS SETTLEMENT ? “ Settlement means Closing the payment/receipt/adjustment process of bill for the period under consideration” To be FAIR and EQUITABLE To RECOVER DUES at the EARLIEST (Billing Cycle) TRANSPERANCY Dispute Resolution Reconciliation

3. Capacity charge: Capacity charge is based on Annual Fixed Charge and will be related to availability of generating station. Availability means the readiness of the generating station to deliver ex-bus output expressed as a percentage of its rated ex-bus output capability. Energy charge: Energy charge is related to the scheduled ex-bus energy to be sent out from the generating station and will be worked out on the basis of paise per KWh.

4. AVAILABILITY TARIFF(ABT) (a)CAPACITY CHARGE (b)ENERGY CHARGE (c)ADJUSTMENT FOR DEVIATIONS (UI CHARGE) (a)= a function of Ex-bus MW availability of power plant for the day declared before the day starts x SEB’s % share. (b)= MWh for the day as per ex=bus drawl schedule for the SEB finalized before the day starts x Energy charge rate (c)=Σ(Actual energy interchange in a 15 min time block – scheduled energy interchange for the time block) x UI rate for the time block. TOTAL PAYMENT FOR THE DAY = (a) + (b)± ( c)

Excess injection = (X1 – x 1 ’ ) MWh. 4 Amount payable to CGS-1 for this =(X1-x1’) * pool price for the block. 4 SEB-A’s scheduled drawl for time block = a 1 ’+a 2 ’+a 3 ’ = a’ MW (ex-CGS Bus) SEB-A’s NET drawal schedule = (a’ – Notional Transm.

Amount payable by SEB-A for this = (A-A’) * pool price for the block. All above payments for deviations from schedules to be routed through a pool A/C operated by RLDC SRLDC/Comml/IEGC/39

9. AVAILABILITY Availability in relation to a generating station for any period means the average of the DCs for all the days during that period expressed as a percentage of the installed capacity of generating station minus normative auxiliary consumption in MW and shall be computed as per the following formula:

10. Present Definition Capacity charges % Availability = i=1 N DC i / {NxICx(100-Aux n ) }% 10000 Where DC i = Average Declared Capacity for i th day of the period in MW N = Total no. of days during the period Aux n = Normative Auxiliary Consumption as % of gross Gen. IC= installed capacity in MW % Availability forms the basis for calculations i=1 N SG i / {NxICx(100-Aux n ) }% 10000 PLF =

35. SOUTHERN REGIONAL ELECTRICITY BOARD ABT based U.I. Account FOR A TYPICAL WEEK NNOTE : 1. MAPS & KGS not covered under ABT; hence UI reduced to zero, under all conditions. IR Exchanges: - Metering points – For WR it is Chandrapur South Bus. - For ER it is Gazuwaka East Bus & Talcher stage I&II interconnecting bus. ii) UI for IR exchanges with ER has been calculated at ER frequency. iii) UI charges with WR and ER has been taken as first charge, as per decision taken in Special Committee meeting held on 17.12.2002.
