3 Background to project Common licence requirement to introduce a common LRIC charging methodology at EHV was blocked by the distribution businesses of Scottish Power and Scottish & Southern Energy in October 2008 Ofgem decided to allow distributors to choose between a common LRIC or FCP methodology SLC50A was introduced in September 2009 DNOs have been jointly developing the two methodologies since September 2009 WPD held workshops on 29/04/2010,10/07/2010 and 14/10/2010 that outlined how the two methods (LRIC and FCP) work and the results at those times A joint consultation on the two methods was issued by the DNOs on 18/06/2010 and a final joint consultation is currently underway with a closing date of 01/02/2011 The consultation and previous papers are available from ENA website 3

4 Summary of proposed charging methodology Both methods aim to produce /kva/annum locational costs that reflect future reinforcement of the network WPD has decided to follow LRIC LRIC produces nodal costs and FCP zonal costs LRIC looks at the effect of a small increment at each node on the net present value of future reinforcement, whereas FCP looks at future demand growth in a zone over a 10 year period and assesses the resulting reinforcement needs LRIC treats demand and generation symmetrically (until scaling) whereas FCP utilises a test size generator to assess reinforcement needs 4

5 Summary of proposed charging methodology Resulting marginal charges are fed into a charging model that: Allocates transmission exit charges Other direct costs Deals with sole use asset charges Scales result to required revenue, and Produces tariffs to charge customers to recover this revenue Details of both LRIC and FCP are available from the ENA website 5

6 Summary of proposed charging EDCM applies to: methodology Distribution Systems or premises connected to the Distribution System at 22 kilovolts or more; (c) Distribution Systems or premises connected directly to substation assets that form part of the Distribution System at 1 kilovolt or more and less than 22 kilovolts or less where the primary voltage of the substation is 22 kilovolts or more and where the Metering Point is located at the same substation.

8 Changes since October stakeholder meeting 8

9 Main areas of change Following areas were highlighted in our October workshop and have not changed further: LRIC Capping Generator Scaling Following areas have changed since our October workshop: Creation of the pot of revenue to be allocated between EDCM demand customers Sharing out of that pot between EDCM demand customers Application of the marginal charges Sole use asset allocation between import and export tariffs Approach to calculating charges for users subject to demand side or generation side management agreements Consideration of the need for further caps to charges 9

10 Main areas of change LRIC Capping The total charge generated by a network branch (from all use of it) is scaled to an annuity of the modern equivalent asset value This significantly reduces many of the charges previously seen particularly impacts generator charges Generator Scaling Generator charges are scaled (using a /kva scalar) to a target revenue derived from the price control allowed revenue This uses a factor of 1/kVA of installed capacity to cover O&M expenditure on sole use assets and shared assets 10

11 Scaling demand charges to required revenue Initially, a pot of revenue to be allocated between EDCM customers needs to be created This pot is created by looking at the cost of the assets used by all EDCM demand customers at the time of peak demand (assessed from a peak demand load flow) as a proportion of the total assets of the network Marginal charges, direct operating costs, network rates, indirect costs and sole use assets are allocated directly to demand customers This leaves a residual to be allocated which is the issue of greatest concern 86% of demand charges in S Wales and 76% of demand charges in S West are scaling 11

12 Scaling demand charges to required revenue This residual scaling represents a mixture of asset costs, tax allowances and pension costs within allowed revenue It has been decided that the tax and pension costs (which across DNOs is 20% of this residual) should be recovered on a fixed /kva basis There are two contenders for allocating the remaining 80% of residual demand scaling: Site-specific demand scaling uses site specific assets calculated from a peak demand notional path load flow as the allocation driver (i.e. what has been used to create the target revenue) or Voltage level demand scaling uses voltage level network assets as the allocation driver Following table summarises the allocation drivers 12

13 Scaling demand charges to required revenue Tariff Element Direct Operating costs Network Rates Indirect costs 80% of residual revenue 20% of residual revenue Site-Specific Scaling approach Site Specific assets on basis of notional path at peak demand Site Specific assets on basis of notional path at peak demand Fixed adder Site Specific assets on basis of notional path at peak demand Fixed adder Voltage level scaling approach Average voltage level assets Average voltage level assets Fixed adder Average voltage level assets Fixed adder 13

14 Scaling demand charges to required revenue There are two conflicting objectives driving the decision between these two methods of scaling: Forward looking charges that are higher in congested parts of the network Charges that are not materially different from a fair and reasonable allocation of costs A test for the first objective is to look at the correlation between the marginal charges for customers and the final charge to see if the marginal cost signal has been preserved Our analysis of this shows a poor correlation for both scaling methods in WPD The second objective can be understood by considering a customer connected very close to a GSP Here, the voltage level demand scaling would give an incentive to seek a private connection as the charge is likely to exceed the asset cost From these considerations, we (WPD) believe that the site specific demand scaling method is the better at meeting the objectives 14

15 Other areas of change since October stakeholder meeting Application of the marginal charges The marginal charges have been split between that for assets close to the user a that for assets remote from the user The part close will be charged on a capacity basis whilst that remote will be on an in year p/kwh basis Sole use asset allocation between import and export tariffs Previously these were all allocated to the import tariff, they are now split proportionately to agreed import/export agreed capacities Approach to calculating charges for users subject to demand side or generation side management agreements Capacity agreed to be available for demand side or generation side management will not be taken into account for the calculation of EDCM charges 15

16 Other areas of change since October stakeholder meeting Consideration of the need for further caps to charges Outliers can occur for several reasons including: The customers characteristics are significantly different from the average on the network. e.g. a customer with a large capacity who only uses a short part of the network may face large and potentially unjustifiable charges under the voltage level scaling approach The power flow analysis could indicate usage of network assets that may not be strictly necessary to supply that customer if the network were designed from scratch. In such cases the site specific approach may result in charges that cannot be justified Consideration is being given to how such caps could be applied 16

17 Other areas of change since October stakeholder meeting Potential solutions are: For the voltage level scaling approach the 80% of residual scaling element could be capped to an annuity on the value of site specific network assets used by the customer As the site specific network assets are calculated at the time of peak demand, it may be appropriate to scale these site specific network assets to the agreed capacity of the customer to account for those with low demands at the time of system peak For the site specific scaling approach the network use factors could be capped to a specific value e.g. set at 85 th percentile 17

18 Treatment of interconnection with other networks 18

19 Treatment of interconnection with other networks DNO DNO interconnection Generally treated as EDCM customers Off shore transmission Treated as an EDCM customer IDNO charges for EHV connected networks Portfolio tariffs for users connected at HV/LV within an EHV connected IDNO network An EDCM tariff for users connected at EHV within an EHV connected IDNO network Further work is still needed with IDNOs to address any concerns 19

20 Justifying charges 20

21 Context Derogation to delay the submission deadline included the following requirement on each DNO (this requirement has subsequently been absorbed into the Licence): To make changes to the methodology as required following sense checks, to ensure they are able to justify the level of charges particularly where charges are moving significantly (either up or down) from current levels 21

22 Justifying Charges Several licence conditions are of relevance to justifying charges: SLC The licensee must not discriminate between any person or class or classes of persons: (a) in providing Use of System;. SLC 13B.8 - The second Relevant Objective is that compliance with the EDCM facilitates competition in the generation and supply of electricity and will not restrict, distort, or prevent competition in the transmission or distribution of electricity or in participation in the operation of an Interconnector. SLC 13B.9 - The third Relevant Objective is that compliance with the EDCM results in charges which, so far as is reasonably practicable after taking account of implementation costs, reflect the costs incurred, or reasonably expected to be incurred, by the licensee in its Distribution Business. In addition, SLC 50A.12 by referring to the original Ofgem specification requires a fixed adder to be used 22

23 Justifying Charges demand We believe that calculating the amount of total required revenue that should be allocated to EDCM customers by assessing their usage of assets at the time of system peak is a reasonably fair way to allocate required revenue Incremental charges established using LRIC are attributed to each customer Where other costs can be separately allocated (direct operating cost, network rates and indirect costs) these have been using an appropriate driver Both proposed methods of scaling residual revenue resulting after allocating marginal costs, operating cost etc have some risk of producing non-cost reflective charges For this reason we believe that capping is required and the approaches proposed should result in justifiable charges to EDCM customers 23

24 Justifying Charges - generation The generation revenue target is calculated as the sum of the DG incentive scheme to post-2005 connected DG and an estimate of the cost if the O&M element of the DG incentive scheme were applied to pre-2005 DG The difference between this target revenue and the marginal charges is applied equally across all generators by using a fixed /kva/year adder Compared to demand the marginal charges and sole use charges for generation are a more significant part of the target revenue and a fixed adder appears to give reasonable results without distorting marginal charges 24

25 Summary Resulting charges need to be justified (a licence obligation) After many options of scaling have been assessed it appears unlikely that there is one that produces justifiable charges in all circumstance without some form of capping to the charges or some component of them Ultimately, each DNO will have to satisfy itself that it can justify the level of charges if this project is going to reach a successful conclusion 25

26 Charges that result 26

27 Evolution of demand charges 27

28 Summary of charges under various options Following tables show the UoS charges for individual sites that result under the different options that have been developed As the methods are still in development they are likely to change further before the method is finalised and there are still risks of data errors Charges in the consultation are based on the data that would be used to set tariffs now this data will have been updated twice before any tariff go live in April 2012 UoS charges are generally made to suppliers and the extent and timing that they are passed onto final charges to customers is governed by the contract between the supplier and customer 28

29 Charges that result Option 41 site specific demand scaling uses data from peak demand load flow as the driver to allocate the 80% of residual revenue Option 42 voltage level demand scaling uses the average voltage level assets as the driver to allocate the 80% of residual revenue Option 41 capped restricts the site specific scaling to twice an average value (concept is to use an 85 th percentile of GB data as we do not have this at present, twice has been used to illustrate the results) Option 42 capped restricts the average scaling to one derived from a notional path load flow analysis 29

40 Risks of future volatility 40

41 Risks of future volatility The main drivers of changes to prices from year to year are: Target revenue driven by price control allowance. There is more volatility in this year to year than under DPCR4 due to the removal of the volume driver which increases the risk of over/under recovery Peak demand on network and flows on network used by EDCM customers affects how the required revenue is split between EDCM and CDCM customers Marginal charges changes in loading on specific branches of the network affect these Individual customer changes to Agreed Capacities and usage at time of peak demand both have a direct effect on the customers charge Addition of new customer/closures 41

53 Risks of future volatility There are two areas where the individual customers behaviour affect their charge: Agreed Supply Capacity whilst it needs to be high enough for the sites peak demand, there is a cost associated with having an Agreed Supply Capacity greater than necessary during peak periods generally referred to a Super Red. The movements in this between 08/09 and 09/10 has been assessed as follows 53

54 Movement in Super Red s Super Red s are used in the allocation of Indirect Cost and allocation of 20% of the residual revenue 54

55 Treatment of pre 2005 generation - update 55

56 Treatment of pre 2005 generation DPCR5 removed the exemption on pre April 2005 DG from paying use of system charges Determination of the appropriate test for undue discrimination and assessment of the contractual position of these generators has been undertaken Ofgem have provided no guidance on how undue discrimination should be interpreted in this regard WPD made a modification application on 17th June to integrate pre and post 2005 DG from 1 st October 2010 Ofgem requested that this was withdrawn to facilitate an Ofgem consultation on these issues Ofgem consulted on these issues between 21/07/2010 and 01/09/2010 There was a meeting between Ofgem and DNOs to ensure a common understanding of the issues needing decisions/guidance on 7 th September 56

57 Treatment of pre 2005 generation There are three key issues that need decisions/guidance: Principles that should be followed in deciding whether compensation is due and if so how it should be calculated If compensation is due, whether this should be an unbundled one-off payment to the generator or whether it should be a bundled discount to a use of system charge From what date should charges apply to pre April 2005 EHV generators Ofgem issued a decision on the second of these on 23 rd August requiring an unbundled solution The third issue was referred to in the decision letter on EDCM timelines issued on 22 nd September which stated Distributed generators (DG) connected at EHV who connected on pre-april 2005 terms will be subject to the arrangements for DG customers that will come into effect on the revised implementation date of 1 April

58 Treatment of pre 2005 generation We await Ofgems decisions on what, if anything should be compensated for We continue to seek changes, where necessary, to contractual arrangements between WPD and generators to facilitate charging once a decision has been made 58

59 Publication of EDCM model 59

60 Publication of EDCM model We believe that there are significant benefits to customers if the EDCM model were published: Customer can better understand the components of the charge Customer can make initial assessment of the impact of changing their usage at peak times or their agreed capacity Customers can start to see the impact of changes made by others connected near to them Customers can assess the impact of changes they may seek to make to the methodology under open governance However, the Utility Act prevents publication of data without the customers consent A licence requirement to publish would allow these models to be available, however Ofgem are not proposing to seek such a change 60

61 Publication of EDCM model As little progress seems to be being made in unlocking this issue, we will be sending out information to each EDCM customer detailing the input data to the model and the components of resulting charges Where there is a linkage between input data for customers and the components we will identify this to allow users to make some assessment to the impact of their future behaviour on charges We will also seek to understand what if any concerns they have with publication and ask for their permission to publish data about their site 61
