INDUSTRIAL SERVICE (IS)
§ 50.135 AVAILABILITY.
   This service is available at primary voltage for large non-residential use delivered through a single point in the electric utility service area adjacent to existing electric distribution facilities that are adequate and suitable for supplying the required service. Service under this schedule is provided on a yearly basis. The schedule is not applicable as a standby service.
(Ord. 2010-11, passed 9-22-2010; Ord. 2019-25, passed on 5-13-2020)
§ 50.136 CHARACTER OF SERVICE.
   The type of service rendered under this subchapter shall be alternating current, 60 hertz, multi-phase, at a standard primary voltage (e.g., 2400/4100, 7200/12,500 volts), or at another primary voltage as mutually agreed upon in writing.
(Ord. 2010-11, passed 9-22-2010)
§ 50.137 MONTHLY RATE.
   (A)   Consumer charge: $300.00/month.
   (B)   Billing demand charge per kW:
 
Coincidental peak (not less than 70% of non- coincidental peak demand)
$22.50
Non-coincidental peak
$3.45
 
   (C)   Energy charge per kW: $0.0593 (subject to ECA - see § 50.141.
   (D)   Facilities charge: the electric utility shall include a charge for those facilities and/or services requested by the customer and agreed to by the electric utility when such facilities and/or services are in excess of its typical facilities and/or services.
(Ord. 2010-11, passed 9-22-2010; Ord. 2017-20, passed 11-29-2017; Ord. 2019-25, passed on 5-13-2020; Ord. 2022-21, passed 6-8-2022; Ord. 2023-42, passed 12-13-2023)
§ 50.138 MINIMUM MONTHLY CHARGE.
   The minimum monthly charge shall be the greatest of:
   (A)   The contract amount, if any;
   (B)   Fifty cents per connected transformer capacity (kVA) or proportional share of transformer capacity when serving multi-services from a single transformer bank; or
   (C)   The customer charge.
(Ord. 2010-11, passed 9-22-2010; Ord. 2019-25, passed on 5-13-2020)
§ 50.139 DETERMINATION OF BILLING DEMAND.
   (A)   The billing demand shall be as indicated or recorded by suitable recording instruments provided by the electric utility and adjusted for power factor as provided in this schedule.
   (B)   The coincidental billing demand for any month shall be the maximum kilowatt demand established by the customer for any period of 60 consecutive minutes during the clock hour that is coincident with the same month, date, and time of the city’s wholesale power coincident peak billing demand used by the State Municipal Power Agency to bill its members located in the Duke Zone.
   (C)   The non-coincidental billing demand for any month shall be the maximum kilowatt demand established by the customer for any period of 15 consecutive minutes during the month for which the bill is rendered.
   (D)   When highly fluctuating or intermittent loads (such as welding machines, electric furnaces, x-ray equipment, and the like) are in operation by the customer, the electric utility reserves the right to set the minimum billing demand at the name plate or volt-ampere rating of the equipment. When such loads require additional equipment (e.g., separate transformers, capacitors, and the like), the costs for such equipment shall be included in the facilities charge.
(Ord. 2010-11, passed 9-22-2010; Ord. 2019-25, passed on 5-13-2020)
§ 50.140 POWER FACTOR.
   (A)   The customer agrees to maintain unity power factor as nearly as practical.
   (B)   The electric utility reserves the right to measure such power factor at any time. Should such measurements indicate that the power factor is less than 97% (lagging or leading), then the demand for billing purposes will be adjusted for the monthly peak demand period by multiplying the demand as indicated or recorded on the demand meter by 97% and dividing by the measured power factor (expressed in percent).
(Ord. 2010-11, passed 9-22-2010; Ord. 2019-25, passed on 5-13-2020)
§ 50.141 ENERGY COST ADJUSTMENT TRACKING FACTOR.
   (A)   The electric utility will update its energy cost adjustment (ECA) tracking factor each calendar quarter based on changes in the costs of purchased power, energy conservation/efficiency programs, payments in lieu of taxes, and other costs specifically approved by the Common Council. The electric utility will prepare separate tracking factors for each rate schedule and, as appropriate, for both the demand and energy charges.
   (B)   The imbedded base costs for the calculation of future ECA tracking factors are as follows:
 
Purchased power - demand:
$23.487/kW-month
Purchased power - energy:
$0.044018/kWh
(Combined demand and energy imbedded in base rates)
$0.093400/kWh
Energy conservation/efficiency:
$0.000000/kWh
PILOT:
$0.000000/kWh
Other:
$0.000000/kWh
