JSERC (terms & conditions for distribution tariff) regulation 2004State Regulations of Jharkhand · 2003

6.1 The energy available from various sources of power that supply to the Petitioner shall be._determined. The fixed and the variable charge for these stations shall be determined.

6.2 The power purchase cost shall be estimated on the basis of-merit order despatch, which may be determined on the basis of variable cost.

6.3 Due consideration shall be given to the technical constraints and long term contractual obligations while determining power purchase costs on the.basis of · merit order principle. ..

6.4 The availability from the state owned generators shall be estimated taking, into account the generation figures approved by the Commission.

6.5 The Plant Load Factors pertaining to the previousfinancial year shall be ;

taken into account for determining energy available with thermal Central G,ei:l,erating Stations (CGS). The energy from hydro CGS shaJI be estimated consid~rJhg the average avaiiabiiiiy in ihe previous years. · ·:i /;

Note.-Balancing Term "B" shall be calculated separately for each applicable category and added together to compute "B".

1.4. Total Energy. on which FPPCA is to be distributed:

SE= Total of sold energy in the control period less (-) energy sold to agriculture and rural domestic category of consumers.

2.0. Implementation of FPPCA:

(i) Only cost of fuel and power purchase as per the Tariff Order with respect to Methodology and Merit Order of Power Purchase from each entity shall be allowed.

(ii) FPPCA shall be computed due to variation in cost of fuel and power purchased made on the basis of the levels of generation of power and those of purchase of power from other sources as determined by the Commission in the Tariff·Order ".

(iii) The FPPCA will be recovered in the form of an incremental energy charge· (Rs./KWH) and shall be recovered from all consumers other than Agricultural and Rural Domestic Category of Consumers.

(iv) The formulate for computation of FPPCA per Kwh for each category of consumer is given below:

1.3 BalancingTerm B:

, A balancing term B shall be added in the formulate to take care of under or over adjustment of revenue through previous FPPCA due to actual units sold in the present quarter being different from the forecast based on the previous quarter and shall be computed as:
