15.00¢ per kilowatthour of energy associated with the effective interruptible power for
the next 60 hours of interruption.
6.33 Effective credits applicable to the contract : The effective credits are applied to the bill for the
consumption period in question according to the following conditions:
a) Effective fixed credit
The effective fixed credit to which the customer is entitled for a given consumption period equals the product of
the fixed credit for the winter period and the effective interruptible power for the consumption period in question,
prorated to the number of hours in the consumption period in relation to the number of hours in the winter.
b) Effective variable credit
The effective variable credit to which the customer is entitled for a given consumption period equals the product
of the variable credit, the number of interruption hours and the effective interruptible power for the consumption
period in question.
6.34 Calculation of contribution coefficient: The contribution coefficient for a consumption period is
-
Pmax = maximum power ;
-
Pbase = base power;
-
LFu h = load factor during useable hours;
-
I = applicable interruptible power.
The contribution coefficient cannot be negative.
6.35 Recovery periods: Subject to agreement by the Distributor, the customer has the right to recovery
periods. These periods may be between 23:00 Friday and 07:00 the following Monday, if one or more
interruptions have occurred in the seven-day period immediately preceding that weekend.
The customer shall communicate with the Distributor by 13:00 on Thursday , or by 13:00 on Wednesday if that
Friday is a holiday, indicating the hourly consumption expected during the recovery period. If no notice is
received, the Distributor will consider that the customer does not wish to take advantage of this opportunity.
The Distributor shall give the customer authorization to consume by 13:00 on the day of the recovery period
when the recovery period starts on a business day, or, if not, by 13:00 on the previous business day.
The consumption during the recovery period is that which exceeds, for the consumption period in question, the
contract power in effect or the maximum power demand recorded outside recovery periods during the
consumption period in question, whichever is higher.
Consumption during recovery periods is billed at the hourly price of additional electricity set in accordance with
Article 6.59.
These recovery periods must in no case be interpreted as a limitation on the Distributor’s right to use interruptible
power at any time, according to the conditions set out in this section.
6.36 Overrun penalty: For each interruption period, any overrun observed after notice of interruption has
been given will be subject to the following penalties:
a) Fixed-credit :
A penalty of $0.60 per kilowatt for each kilowatt contained in the sum of overruns during an interruption
period;
The maximum penalty for a given interruption period cannot exceed $2.40 per kilowatt multiplied by the
interruptible power and the contribution coefficient for the consumption period in question.
The total penalties applied over a winter cannot exceed the total fixed credits paid to the customer for the winter
period. The Distributor reserves the right to terminate the customer’s commitment if overruns occur during three
or more interruption periods in the course of the winter.
6.37 Billing conditions for customers enrolled in both the Interruptible Electr icity Option and the
Additional Electricity Option: For customers enrolled in both the Additional Electricity Option and the
Interruptible Electricity Option, the conditions described in Article 6.64 apply.

prorated to the number of hours in the consumption period in relation to the number of hours in the winter.
b) Effective variable credit
The effective variable credit to which the customer is entitled for a given consumption period equals the product
of the variable credit, the number of interruption hours and the effective interruptible power for the consumption
period in question.
6.34 Calculation of contribution coefficient: The contribution coefficient for a consumption period is
calculated as follows:
C = [(Pmax - Pbase) x LFuh] / I
where
-
C = contribution coefficient;
-
Pmax = maximum power;
Original : 2006-11-24
Page 184 sur 186
-
Pbase = base power;
-
LFuh = load factor during useable hours;
-
I = applicable interruptible power.
The contribution coefficient cannot be negative.
6.35 Recovery periods : Subject to agreement by the Distributor, the customer has the right to recovery
periods. These periods may be between 23:00 Friday and 07:00 the following Monday, if one or more
interruptions have occurred in the seven-day period immediately preceding that weekend.
The customer shall communicate with the Distributor by 13:00 on Thursday , or by 13:00 on Wednesday if that
Friday is a holiday, indicating the hourly consumption expected during the recovery period. If no notice is
received, the Distributor will consider that the customer does not wish to take advantage of this opportunity.
The Distributor shall give the customer authorization to consume by 13:00 on the day of the recovery period
when the recovery period starts on a business day, or, if not, by 13:00 on the previous business day.
The consumption during the recovery period is that which exceeds, for the consumption period in question, the
contract power in effect or the maximum power demand recorded outside recovery periods during the
consumption period in question, whichever is higher.
Consumption during recovery periods is billed at the hourly price of additional electricity set in accordance with
Article 6.59.
These recovery periods must in no case be interpreted as a limitation on the Distributor’s right to use interruptible
power at any time, according to the conditions set out in this section.
6.36 Overrun penalty: For each interruption period, any overrun observed after notice of interruption has been
given will be subject to the following penalties:
a) Fixed-credit :
A penalty of $0.60 per kilowatt for each kilowatt contained in the sum of overruns during an interruption
period;
The maximum penalty for a given interruption period cannot exceed $2.40 per kilowatt multiplied by the
interruptible power and the contribution coefficient for the consumption period in question.
b) Variable-credit :
No variable credit will be granted for an hour to which a penalty applies.
The total penalties applied over a winter cannot exceed the total fixed credits paid to the customer for the winter
period. The Distributor reserves the right to terminate the customer’s commitment if overruns occur during three
or more interruption periods in the course of the winter.
