CAPACITY CHARGE
Capacity charge will be related to
‘availability’ of the generating station and
the percentage capacity allocated to the
state. ‘Availability’ for this purpose means
the readiness of the generating station to
deliver ex-bus output expressed as a
percentage of its rated ex-bus output
capability.
47
ENERGY CHARGE
Energy charges shall be worked out on the
basis of a paise per kwh rate on ex-bus
energy scheduled to be sent out from the
generating station as per the following
formula
Energy charges = Rate of energy
charges (paise/kwh) x
Scheduled Generation (ex-bus MWh)
48
UNSCHEDULED INTERCHANGE (U I) :

Variation in actual generation / drawal with respect
to scheduled generation / drawal shall be accounted
for through Unscheduled Interchange (UI).

UI for generating station shall be equal to its total
actual generation minus its scheduled generation.

UI for beneficiary shall be equal to its total actual
drawal minus its total scheduled drawal.
49
UNSCHEDULED INTERCHANGE (U I) :
UI shall be worked out for each 15 minute
time block.
 Charges for all UI transactions shall be based
on average frequency of the time block.
 UI rates shall be frequency dependent and
uniform throughout the country.

(C)
ADJUSTMENT FOR DEVIATIONS
(U I CHARGE)
(A) = a function of the Ex-Bus MW availability of Power
Plant for the day declared before the day starts
x
SEB’s % allocation from the plant
(B) = MWh for the day as per Ex-Bus drawal schedule for
the SEB finalised before the day starts x Energy
charge rate
(A)
(C) = Σ (Actual energy interchange in a 15 minute time
block – scheduled energy interchange for the time
block) x UI rate for the time block
52
TOTAL PAYMENT FOR THE DAY = (A) + (B) ± (C)
FEATURES :

(A) and (B) do not depend on actual plant generation
/ drawal. No metering required for this as they are
based on off-line figures. All deviations taken care of
by (C)

No complication regarding deemed generation.

Perpetual incentive for maximizing generation and
reducing drawal during deficit, but no incentive to
over generate during surplus.
