DETERMINATION OF DEMAND CHARGE – TEMPORARY PERIOD

If the Customer, due to abnormal conditions such as breakdown of equipment or emergencies, desires to take from the Company for one or more temporary periods, capacity in excess of its normal requirements or in excess of the Company’s obligation to serve and requests, in writing, an amount of capacity in excess of its normal requirements and the number of consecutive days said capacity will be needed, then the Company may by written notice elect the amount of capacity in excess of the Customer’s normal requirements it is willing to accept as load on its system and the days said capacity will be available to the customer. Such additional capacity allotted the Customer hereunder shall not increase the Company’s obligation over that specified in the contract between the Customer and the Company, and shall not relieve the Customer of the Excess Demand provisions of this rate.

The Demand Charge of the Customer for any month in which one or more Temporary Periods have been established shall be the lower of:

  1. The Demand Charge determined as though no Temporary Period had been established, or

  2. A two part Demand Charge consisting of (a) and (b) below, which shall be added.

    1. The higher of the following charges:

      1. The product of the applicable Demand Charge times the number of kilowatts as determined by applying the provisions of the Determination of Billing Demand to the demands created during the days of the billing month, not included in the Temporary Period, or

      2. The product of the applicable Demand Charge times the number of kilowatts as determined by applying the provisions of the Determination of Billing Demand to the demands created during the days of the billing month included in the Temporary Period less the number of kilowatts allotted for the Temporary Period.

    2. A charge of $0.58 per kilowatt multiplied by the number of calendar days in the Temporary Period so specified in the Company’s notice, applicable to the lesser of the following number of kilowatts.

      1. The number of kilowatts allotted for the Temporary Period.

      2. The number of kilowatts as determined by applying the provisions of the Determination of Billing Demand to the demands created during the days of the month included in the Temporary Period that exceeds the number of kilowatts as determined by applying the provisions of the Determination of Billing Demand to the demands created during the days of the month not included in the Temporary Period.
