ENERGY COST ADJUSTMENT
ENERGY COST ADJUSTMENT
All monthly KWH charges shall be increased or decreased by an
amount equal to "X" cents per KWH, to be known as the energy cost
adjustment (ECA) The ECA shall be computed in the months of
April and October to be applied to the followtng periods of May
through October and November through April respectively The
City shall in no case change the energy cost adjustment more than
twice in either of the six (6) months periods The ECA shall be
calculated by the following formula
ECA (Winter) ~ Pro~ected energy cost for wxnter months
Projected KWH sales for winter months
ECA (Summer) = Pro~ected energy cost for summer months
Projected KWH sales for summer months
The above formula results ~n Winter 1986/87 and Summer 1987
ECA's as follows
ECA (Winter)
ECA (Summer)
= 2 O0~/KWM
= z 00 /KWH
In the event that actual cumulatxve costs of fuel, varzable
costs of Texas Municipal Power Agency (TMPA) energy and purchased
energy (excluding TMPA's fixed charges) is greater than or less
than the cumulative ECA revenues by $1,000,000 during the fiscal
year, the City may recompute the Energy Cost Adjustment and
re-establish an ECA that collects or returns such difference over
the remaining months of the fiscal year Such change in ECA
shall be applied evenly to all remaining months' ECA
