I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />II <br />I <br />I <br />-- <br /> <br />the MRB-F5 rate schedule would yield an average revenue of <br /> <br />4.6 mills per kilowatt-hour from long-term firm power sales. <br /> <br />The actual yield from such sales was 4.40 mills per kilowatt- <br /> <br />hour in FY 1972 and is expected to be 4.387 mills per kilowatt- <br /> <br />hour in the near future. <br /> <br />Pertinent Eastern Division load characteristics used in this <br /> <br />repayment study are as follows: <br /> <br />a. KW Months per Year per KW of Maximum Demand = lO.30. <br /> <br />b. Hours Use per Year per KW of Maximum Demand = 5,000. <br /> <br />c. Average Monthly Load Factor = 65 percent. <br /> <br />d. Percent of gross revenue from sale of annual firm <br /> <br />power receiving a 5 percent voltage discount = 88 percent. <br /> <br />e. Percent of annual firm energy sold receiving an <br /> <br />in-lieu-of wheeling discount = 45 percent. <br /> <br />7. Investment Factors - 1963 Pro1ections vs. Actual <br /> <br />Another factor partially responsible for the improved payout <br /> <br />schedule, is that the actual plant-in-service to date (total <br /> <br />commercial power investment) is approximately $68 million less <br /> <br />than 1963 projection. This reduction resulted because actual <br /> <br />costs of Oahe, Big Bend, and Yellowtail Powerplants are less <br /> <br />than estimated in 1963. A portion is also due to the trans- <br /> <br />mission system developing at a slower rate than anticipated. <br /> <br />2l <br />
