ORDER NO. PSC -2017 -0336 -PAA -EQ DOCKET NO. 20170072 -EQ PAGE 57 Attachment A DUKE ENERGY. ACBF SECTION No. IX SECOND REVISED SHEET NO. 9.443 CANCELS FIRST REVISED SHEET NO. 9.443 Annual Capacity Billing Factor. The ACBF shall be the electric energy actually received by DEF for the 12 consecutive months preceding the date of calculation excluding any energy received during an event of Force Majeure in which the Committed Capacity is temporarily set equal to 0 kW, divided by the product of the Committed Capacity and the number of hour; in the 12 consecutive months preceding the date of calculation excluding the hours during an event of Force Majeure in which the Committed Capacity is temporarily set equal to 0 kW. If an event of Force Majeure occurs during the 12 consecutive months preceding the date of calculation in which the Committed Capacity is temporarily set to a value greater than 0 kW then the 12 month rolling average will be pro- rated accordingly. During the first 12 consecutive Monthly Billing Periods commencing with the first Monthly Billing Period in which Capacity Payments are to be made, the calculation of 12 -month rolling average ACBF shall be performed as follows (a) during the first Monthly Billing Period, the ACBF shall be equal to the Monthly Availability Factor, (b) thereafter, the calculation of the ACBF shall be computed by summing the electric energy actually received by DEF for the number of full consecutive months preceding the date of calculation excluding any energy received during an event of Force Majeure in which the Committed Capacity is temporarily set equal to 0 kW, divided by the product of the Committed Capacity and the number of hours in the number of full consecutive months preceding the date of calculation excluding the hours during an event of Force Majeure in which the Committed Capacity is temporarily set equal to 0 kW. If an event of Force Majeure occurs during the months preceding the date of calculation in which the Committed Capacity is temporarily set to a value greater than 0 kW then the 12 month rolling average will be pro- rated accordingly. This calculation shall be performed at the end of each Monthly Billing Period until enough Monthly Billing Periods have elapsed to calculate a true 12 -month rolling average ACBF. MAF a Monthly Availability Factor. The total energy received during the Monthly Billing Period for which the calculation is made, divided by the product of Committed Capacity times the total hours during the Monthly Billing Period. Monthly = The period beginning on the first calendar day of each calendar Billing month, except that the initial Monthly Billing Period shall consist of Period the period beginning 12:01 a.m., on the Capacity Delivery Date and ending with the last calendar day of such month.
