Q&A
Submit a Question
Please clarify / provide an example of how the capacity supplier fee will be assessed.
The supplier fee will be charged for each PRC or ZRC awarded within each product. For example if Bidder A is awarded 100 PRCs in July 2012, 250 PRCs in August 2012, 140 PRCs in March 2013 and 200 ZRCs in 2013-14, the supplier fee would be calculated as follows:
July 2012: 100 PRCs * $0.50/PRC = $50.00
August 2012: 250 PRCs * $0.50/PRC = $125.00
March 2013: 140 PRCs * $0.50/PRC = $70.00
2013-14: 200 ZRCs * $6.00/ZRC = $1,200.00
Total Supplier Fee: $50.00 + $125.00 + $70.00 + $1,200 = $1,445 payable to IPA within 7 business days of ICC ruling
(Posted 3/29/12)
If implementation of the new MISO capacity market construct is delayed, how will the ZRC Confirmation Agreement be affected?
If Ameren Illinois Company is required to provide PRCs rather than ZRCs for one or both of the years covered under the 2013-15 Confirmation Agreement, the parties will convert the Contract Quantity of ZRCs to an equal amount of monthly PRCs over the entire planning period. For example, if implementation is delayed one year, and PRCs are required for the 2013-14 planning year, the ZRCs contracted for 2013-14 will be converted to monthly PRCs for that period. See page 2 of the Confirmation Agreement for the specific contract language.

(Posted 3/29/12)
Please specify which proposed MISO Local Resource Zone is associated with Ameren Illinois Company's load?
Information from MISO indicates that the Local Resource Zones are still being defined, and a proposed map has not been filed with FERC.
