TARIFF STRUCTURE: 2014-19
ANNUAL CAPACITY (FIXED) CHARGES
Capacity Charge: for recovery of annual fixed cost
Capacity Charge: AFC x ( PAFY / NAPAF) subjected to max (PAFY) = NAPAF
WhereAFC = Annual Fixed cost NAPAF = Normative annual plant availability factor (85 %)PAFY = Plant availability for the yearPAFM = Plant availability for the month
PAF = 10000 X DCi / {n X IC x (100-AUX)} %
Note: 1. Plant Availability Factor implies DC of the individual stages2. 100% AFC receivable at DC of 85%

ENERGY (VARIABLE) CHARGES
Energy Charges: for recovery of Fuel Cost (Coal and Oil)Energy Charges: EC = ECR X SCHEDULE GENERATION
Transit & Handling loss of coal: 0.2 % for pit head and 0.8% for non-pit head station. For imported coal it is 0.2%Energy Charge Rate (ECR)
The Energy Charge Rate in Rs/Kwh shall be determined to three decimal places :
ECR ={(GHR SFC x CVSF) x LPPF/CVPF + SFC x LPSFi} x 100/(100 AUX)
Where,ECR = Energy charge rate, in Rupees per kWhGHR = Gross station heat rate, in kcal per kWh.SFC = Normative Specific fuel oil consumption, in ml/kWhCVSF = Calorific value of secondary fuel, in kCal/mlLPPF = Landed price of primary fuel, in Rupees per kgLPSF = Landed price of secondary fuel, in Rupees per mlCVPF = Gross calorific value of primary fuel as received, in kCal per kgAUX = Normative APC , in %

NORMS OF OPERATION, TSTPS
Annual Plant Availability Factor (NAPAF) 85 %
Gross Station Heat Rate (GHR) 2375 Kcal/kwh
Secondary Fuel oil Consumption (SFC) 0.5 ml/kwh
APC, with CT & TDBFP (AUX) 5.75 %
Note:Provided that in view of shortage of coal and uncertainty of assured coal supply on sustainedbasis experienced by the generating stations, the NAPAF for recovery of fixed charges shall be 83% till the same is reviewed.

Sharing of Net Gain
Net Gain = (ECRn ECRa) x Scheduled Generation ECRn Normative Energy Charge RateECRa Actual Energy Charge RateThis is to be shared at 60:40 ratio
INCENTIVE
Incentive shall be receivable at a flat rate of 50 paise/kWh for ex-bus scheduled energy corresponding to scheduled generation (SG) in excess of ex-bus energy corresponding to Normative Annual Plant Load Factor (NAPLF)
SG = 10000 X SGi / {n X IC x (100-AUX)} %Incentive receivable at SG> 85 %

Deviation Settlement Mechanism
Objective
The objective of these regulations is to maintain grid discipline and grid security as envisaged under the Grid Code through the commercial mechanism for Deviation Settlement through drawal and injection of electricity by the users of the grid.
Deviation in a time-block for a seller means its total actual injection minus its total scheduled generation and for a buyer means its total actual drawalminus its total scheduled drawal.
