Telephone: (201) 263-6013 Date: December 7, 1979 GENERAL PUBLIC UTILITIES CORPORATION Metropolitan Edison Company, Pennsylvania Electric Company and Jersey Central Power & Light Company NRC Docket No. 50-289 Three Mile Island Unit No. 1 Restart Proceeding Response to NRC Staff's Eupplemental Financial Information Request No. 2, tele-copied 11/9/79 (item nunber refers to initial requests dated 9/21/79):

"(3) On what basis does GPU assume that current costs of TMI replacement energy are not recovered? Explain in detail."

Response

As explained on pages 4 through 8 of our response to the NRC's Financial Information Request No. 10-(c) dated 10/19/79, the energy cost adjustment charges of GPU's subsidiaries were increased effective July 1, 1979 to reflect the increases in energy costs the subsidiaries faced as a result of the TMI-2 accident. In order to moderate increases in charges to customers, however, the energy clause charges were levelized over the 18-month period ended 12/31/80. On the assumption that TMI-1 would return to service by 1/1/80, at the time 'he clause increases were approved by the subsidiaries' state commissions, it was assumed that this period would include low cost nuclear generation from TMI-l for 12 of the 18 months. As a result of the delay in the return of TMI-l to service, which is not now expected to occur until late 1980 at the earliest, and increases in energy costs unrelated to the TMI-2 accident, particularly increases in oil costs, the clause increases that became effective in July will not be sufficient to fully recover the energy costs now projected for the subsidiaries, particu-larly those projected for Met-Ed and Jersey Central. Met-Ed has accordingly petitioned the PaPUC to increase its energy cost adjustment charge effective 1/1/80, as described in more detail in our responses to the NRC's Sipplemental Financial Information Request No. 9 dated 11/6/79 and 12/7/79, and a filing with the NJ BPU to increase Jersey Central's energy cost adjustment charge is planned for early 1980.

"(3) Describe the " temporary investments" under " external financing" that are projected for GPU and Penelec".

Response

GPU's, i.e., Penelec's temporary investments shown for the year 1986 in our response to the NRC's Financial Information Request No. 3 dated 10/17/79 represent the utilization of temporary excesses of available cash over cash requirements.

Penelec, the GPU Company least affected by the TMI-2 accident, is projected to have excess cash available from time to time in 1980, and correspondingly would invest such funds in typical short-term instruments such as commercial paper, treasury bills and the like.

Telephone: (201) 263-6290 Date: December 7, 1979 Page 1 of 2 GENERAL PUBLIC UTILITIES CORPORATION Metropolitan Edison Company, Pennsylvania Electric Company and Jersey Central Power & Light Company NRC Docket No. 50-289 Three Mile Island Unit No. 1 Restart Proceeding Response to NRC Staff's Supplemental Financial Information Request No. 4, tele-copied 11/9/79 (item number refers to initial requests dated 9/21/79):

"(4.a) Provide justification for the assumed 71 percent plant capacity factor for TM1-1. Indicate the actual plant capacity factor experienced by TMI-l when it was in commercial opera-tion. Provide total (GPU) operating cost estimates assuming plant capacity factors of 50 percent and 60 percent."

kesponse:

The 71% annual capacity factor projected for TMI-l following its return to service (i.e., for the years 1981 through 1985) reflects two basic assumptions:

(1) that the unit will undergo a normal refueling outage of 6 weeks duration each year, and (2) that the unit will experience a 20% forced outage rate dur-ing the remaining hours of the year.

Based on TMI-l's past performance, which the table below shows has been significantly better than the naticnal average for all nuclear units, which in the aggregate have achieved a lifetime capacity factor of about 60%, the 71% capacity factor projected for TMI-l is conservative.

and 60 percent, reference is made to our re-sponse to the NRC's Financlai information Request No. 4-(a) dated 10/15/79.

That response projected the following operating, maintenance and fuel expenses for TMI-1, based on a 71% capacity factor:

Proj ected TMI-l Operating Expenses as Budgeted

($ millions) 1981 1982 1983 1984 1985 O&M Expenses Other Than Fuel $24.8 $27.4 $30.0 $32.9 $36.2 Fuel Expense 11.6 14.4 17.5 20.0 23.2 Total Operating Expenses $36.4 $41.8 $47.5 $52.9 $59.4 Since the non-fuel operating and maintenance expenses of a base load gen-erating station are essentially fixed, i.e., do not vary with unit output, TMI-l's fuel expense is the only expense that would vary significantly if TMI-l were to operate at capacity factors of 50 and 60%. At these assumed capacity factors, the unit's fuel expense is projected to be as follows:

Projected TMI-l Fuel Expense at Lower than Budgeted Capacity Factors

($ millions) 1981 1982 1983 1984 1985 60% Capacity Factor $ 9.8 $12.2 $14.8 $16.9 $19.6 50% Capacity Factor $ 8.2 $10.1 $12.3 $14.1 $16.3 Accordingly, the total operating costs pcojected for TMI-l would be re-duced to the following levels, assuming 50 and 60 percent capacity factors:

Total Projected TMI-l Operating Expenses at Lower than Budgeted Capacity Factors (S millions) 1981 1982 1983 1984 l$15 60% Capacity Factor $34.6 - $39.6 $44,8 $49.8 $55.8 ,

Company, Respondents  :

MOTION OF METROPOLITAN EDISON COMPANY (" MET-ED") AND PENNSYLVANIA ELECTRIC COMPANY ("PENELEC") REQUESTING:

A. A SEVERANCE (FROM THE PRESENT CONSOLIDATED PROCEEDINGS) 0F MET-ED'S PETITION FOR MODIFICATION OF THE ENERGY CLAUSE CHARGE FIXED FOR MET-ED UNDER THE COMMISSION ORDER ENTERED

~ JUNE 19, 1979 AT THE ABOVE DOCKET, OR, IN THE ALTERNATIVE, REQUESTING EXPEDITED HEARING AND DECISION WITH RESPECT TO

_ THAT PETITION IN THE PRESENT CONSOLIDATED PROCEEDINGS, AND B. AN INITIAL DECISION WITH RESPECT TO THE FIRST ISSUE RAISED UNDER THE COMMISSION'S ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE ENTERED SEPTEMBER 21, 1979, NAMELY, "WHY THI-l SHOULD BE CONSIDERED

, USED AND USEFUL IN THE PUBLIC SERVICE".

To the Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission:

A. Request For A Severance, Or, In the Alternative, For Expedited Hearing and Decision, Within the Present Consolidated Proceeding, on Met-Ed's Petition for Modification of Its Energy Clause Charge

1. By Order entered June 19, 1979 at the above docket, the Commission suspended the normal operation of Met-Ed's energy clause (which is the standard form o f electric utility energy clause prescribed by the Commission at I.D. 214) and fixed a non-fluctt.ating or "levelized" energy clause charge in the amount of 8.8 raills per kwh (i.e., 8.4 mills 1548 015

.. .1

.. m.... . . . . . .

- -s .

for energy costu and .4 mills for the associated gross receipts tax) to be collected by Met-Ed during the eighteer rmonth period commencing July 1, 1979.

2. By its petition filed on November 1, 1979, Met-Ed requested that the Commission modify itr afonesaid Order by increasing the above mentioned levelized 8.8 mills per kwh charge by an amount of 6.9 mills per kwh. That petition, together with the attachments thereto, is incorporated herein by reference pursuant to 1 Pa. Code 633.3.
3. At its public meeting on November 8, 1979, the Commission consolidated, for purposes of hearing, its Orders to show cause issued at the above docket under dates of September 21, 1979 and November 1, 1979, and Met-Ed's petition for modification.
4. By its memorandum filed on November 23, 1979 in respo.nse to the Commission's Prehearing Order dated November ]6, 1979, Met-Ed stated a number of reasons why a prompt hearing and decision with respect to its petition is of such importance to Met-Ed and its ability to serve its customers. Thae memorandum is incorporated herein by refer-ence pursuant to 1 Pa. Code 533.3.
5. Since the entry of the Commission's Order on June 19, 1979, various factors have changed, causing in-creases in the experienced anc anticipated levels of Met-Ed's energy costs Such changes a re detailed in Me t-l'd ' s petition for modi fica tion.

1548 n16

6. As appears from Table 3 attached to Met-Ed's petition for modification of its energy clause charge, Met-Ed's energy costs for the six months ending December 31, 1979 are expected to average approximately 25 mills per kwh.
7. Under the Commission's above mentioned June 19, 1979 Order, Met-Ed is permitted to collect currently a total of 16.4 mill of energy costs per kwh of energy fur-nished to its customers, namely, 8 mills of energy costs per kwh via its base rates and 8.4 mills _ of energy costs per kwh via its energy clause.
8. If Met-Ed's energy clause had operated in its normal mode since June 30, 1979, (a) the amount of Met-Ed's uncollected energy costs (and the amount of its short-tern bank borrowings which had to be incurred to finance such uncollected costs) would be substantially less than is presently the case and (b) the amounts of the energy clause charges to customers since June 30, 1979 would have correspondingly been substantially greater than the amounts recovered under the levelized charge fixed by the Commission.
9. The greater the delay in modifying Met-Ed's presently inadequate energy clause charge, the greater the increase that will have to be made later (a) to recover the rapidly ac; mmulu tint, and uncollected energy costs und (b) to prevent the e::haus tion of Me t-Ed's shor t- term borrowing capability (which h n to be utilized to finance such un-collected energy costa). See Appendix A to Respandents' 1548 017

s *

- ti - s above mentioned memorandum filed on November 1, 1979.

10. Although an electric utility's energy costs represent by far the largest component of that utility's

' cost of serving its customers, such energy costs are easily and readily identifiable.

-F 11. The Commission, on a number of occasions er in the recent past, has very quickly made adjustments, on an

, emergency or expedited basis, in the levels of electric utility energy cost charges.

12. In order to provide for the urgently needed expedited hearing and decision on the petition to modify its energy clause charge (which Met-Ed urges to be accomplished by January 1, 1980), Met-Ed requests that the e

Commission either (a) grant a severance of that petition from the present consolidated proceedings (so that it may be the subject of expedited hearing and decision as a separate proceeding) or, in the alternative, (b) provide for expedited hearing and decision on tha t petition within the context of the present consolidated proceedings.

B. Request That An Initial Decision Be Made As To Whether Three Mile Island Unit No. 1

("TMI-1") Should Be Considered Used and Useful In The Public Service

13. By its Order entered September 21, 1979, the Commission Ordered Met-Ed and Penelce to show cause with recpect to two issues, namely:

1548 018 m

s "a s , t

(=

"(1) why TMI-l should be considered used and useful in the public service, and (2) why all of the costs associated with TMI-l should not be removed from their respective

, , base rates."

14. The first of such issues involves the

,. _ determination of a conclusion of law which is common to both

' of the Respondent companies.

~. .

15. The determination of the second of such issues involves the necessity of developing, with respect to each of the two Respondents, Met-Ed and Penclec, a separate base rate case record related to a timely test year period, including the necessarily detailed base rate case direct testimony and cross--examination of the various witnesses of each of the Respondents as well as the witnesses presented by the Commission Staff and the various other parcies to the proceeding.
16. If the first of such issues is the sub-ject of an initial decision and if such decision concludes that TMI-l continues to be used and useful, there will be no necessity for the subsequent presentation of evidence, conduct of hearings or any determination with respect to the second of such issues.

] 7. While this matter does not involve the high degree o f urgency for an ecrly decision as is the case with Met-Ed's above mentioned petit. ion for modification of its energy clause charge, the making o f the requested initial 1548 019 m

, *..l,.

ra

-G - -

decision (on the foregoing first issue concerning TMI-1) with reasonable promptness during the course'of the present proceedings offers the possibility of achieving substantial savings in the amounts of time and effort that might other-

~

wise be required on the part of the Commission, its Staff and the parties to the consolidated proceedings.

Therefore, Met-Ed and Penelec join in 18.

the suggestion made at the Prehearing Conference on November 27, 1979 by counsel for the Senior Power Action Group and submit th'at it is in the public interest that an initial decision be made, as promptly as possible during the course of the present proceedings, with respect to the aforesaid

'first issue raised under the Commission's September 21, 1979 Order to show cause.

Respectfully submitted,

. 6 Met-Ed/Penclec Statement A Witnesses. J. G. Graham F. D. Hafer Statement of F. D. Hafer In Support of Met-Ed's Petition to Increase Its Levelized Energy Cost Adjustment Charge Q. Would you please state your n am e , address and occupa-tion.

A. My name is F. D. Ha fe r and my business address is 100 Interpace Parkway, Parsippany, New Jersey. I am Vice President, Rate Administration, of CPU Service Corp-oration (" Service Company"), a subsidiary of General Public Utilities Corporation ("GPU"), the owner of all of the conmon stock of Metropolitan Edison Company

("Me t-E d ") and Pennsylvania Electric Company ("Penelec").

A brief summary o f my educational and professional background is attached as Appendix A.

Q. What is the purpose of your t e s t im o ny ?

A. Together with witness John G. Graham, Treasurer of GPU, I am testifying in support of Met-Ed's petition for a 6.9 mill increase in its levelized energy cost adjustment' charge filed in this docket on November 1, 1979. That petition has been marked fo r identification as Met-Ed/

Penelec Exhibit A-2, 1548 021

Q. With respect to the clause petition, could you distinguish the areas of your responsibility and those of Mr. Graham?

A. Yes. A major factor affecting the determination of the level of the clause increase Met-Ed has requested was its projected le ve l of short-term debt during the year 1980, as shown by Figures 1 and 2 of Appendix B to Exhibit A-2. Figure 1 shows that without a revision in Met-Ed's 8.8 nill level charge currently in effect, Met-Ed's short-term debt is projected to exceed its limit under the revolving credit ag re em e n t Me t-Ed has with its lending banks by May of 1980. Fi gu re 2 shows that the requested 6.9 uill increase, provided it were to become e f f e.tiv e on January 1, 1980, would keep Met-Ed's short-term debt within manageable limits. .'. l t h o u g h I am prepared to give a broad ov e rv i ew of financial matters, detailed support for the cash flow projections employed in this analysis, the terms of the revolving credit agreement as they apply to Met-Ed and GPU, and the necessity fo r maintaining Met-Ed's short-term debt below its allowed limit will be provided by Mr. Graham. I will also give an ov e rv i ew of the operation o f Me t-Ed 's clause under the provi s ions of its tariff, and the energy cost projections and assumptions underlying our req ue s ted increase will be supported by me. With respect to the latter, I will again defer to specialized witnesses for detailed support as may be necessary.

Q. Could you briefly describe the functioning of Met-Ed's en-ergy clause prior to the TMI-2 accident on March 28, 19797 A. Yes. In acco. dance with the Commission's di re c t iv e s in I.D.

214, e f f ect ive July 1, 1978, Met-Ed im p l e m e n t e d a " net energy cost rate," or an energy cost adjustment clause that recovered the fuel cost of Met-Ed's internal ge ne r-ation, exclusive of costs incurred after the fuel had been d e liv e r e d to the plant site, and purchased power costs exc lu s iv e of installed capacity and demand charges.

The clause was based on a 6-month rolling average of historical costs and had an error correction factor to automatically adjust for clause over or under collections.

The ta: tff pages describing the provisions of this clause, wh ich has been temporarily levelized as a result of the TMI-2 accident, is attached as Appendix A of Ex h ib i t A-2.

Q. You note that Met-Ed's 6 -m o n t h historical clause was levelized following the TMI-2 accident. Could you elabor-ate on that?

A. Actually, Met-Ed's 6-m o n t h clause was levelized from July 1, 1978 through April 30, 1979 in accordance with procedures mandated by the Commission for effecting a transition from Met-Ed's clause previously in effect to the 6-month c la u s e prescribed by the Commission. In May and June 1979, following the end of this transition procedure, energy cost adju s tmen t charges based on a 6-month rolling 1548 023

average historical costs were billed. Effective July 1, 1979, the charges that would h av e been billed under the 6-month clause were temporarily replaced by a level factor of 8.8 mills per Kwh, by the Commission Order entered June 19, 1979 in Docket No. I-79040308. It was anticipated in the Commission's O rde r that the 8.8 mill level ch a rg e would remain in effect for 18 m on ths until December 31, 1980. The addendum to Met-Ed's tariff authorizing the level charge ( Appendix A o f Exhibit A-2) does, however, p e rm i t an earlier revision if requested by Met-Ed or directed by the Commission.

Q. Why was the clause levelized?

A. The levelizing of the clause was basically adopted to moderate steep monthly increases in adjustment charges to customers that otherwise would have been billed under the 6-month clause as a result of the sharp increases in Met-Ed's energy costs that occured following the TMI-2 accident. It was assumed that Met-Ed's unrecovered energy costs which would accumulate during the initial months of billing the level charge (i.e., from July through December 1979) would be recovered in 1980 follow-ing the return of TMI-1 to service, which at the t im e the level charge was d e t e rm i n e d , was expected to occur by January 1, 1980.

Q. What were the other significant assumptions underlying the Commission's determination of the 8.8 mill level charge?

1548 024 A. The Commission basically accepted Met-Ed's projections of the cost of TMI replacement energy, which Met-Ed es tim a t ed would av e r ag e about $ 10 million per month with both TMI units out of service, and drop to about

$3.5 million per month following the return of TMI-1 to s e rv i c e . In both cases, the e s t im a t e s represented the

" gross" cost of TMI replacement energy, before off-setting reductions in energy costs expected to result from s ho r t- t e rm power purchases that GPU was actively seeking at the t im e to lessen the im p a c t of the TMI-2 accident. On a " net" basis reflecting these reductions, which the Commission estimated would amount to about 25% of the gross TMI replacement energy cost, the Com-mission's e s t im a t e s of the cost of TMI replacement energy were $ 7.5 million per month with both TMI units out, and $ 2.5 million per month with only TMI-2 out. The Commission added its estimated TMI replacement energy costs to Met-Ed's energy costs originally budgeted for the 18-month period from July 1, 1979 to December 31, 1980 on the assumption of normal operation of the TMI units, and projected total energy costs for the period of approximately $200 million. The 8.8 mill level charge was then d e t e rm i n e d by dividing this amount by total sales of 12,257 Gwh projected for the period, deducting the 8 mills of energy costs per Kwh included in retail base rates, and applying a tax factor to make provision for the 4.5% Pennsylvania Gross Receipts Tax. In addition,

_ 5_ 1548 025

although the Commission did not reflect either of the d i r e c t iv e s in its determination of the 8.8 mill level charge, it (a) authorized the inclusion of the de-mand component of the cost of TMI-related power pur-chases as part of the costs recoverable by the energy clause for the period from July through December, 1979, and (b) instructed Met-Ed to negotiate with PJM to eliminate the " split savings" component of the cost of CPU's TMI-related interchange purchases from PJM so as to price such purchases at cost.

Q. Met-Ed's peition for an increase in the 8.8 mill level factor indicates that its energy corts have exceeded the costs assumed in determining that factor. Could you indicate the reasons for this?

A. Fi rs t , and most importantly, the expected return date of TMI-1 has slipped from the January 1, 1980 date assumed in d e t e rm i n i ng the 8.6 mill level factor to a late 1980 date at the earliest. As will be testified to by witness R. C. Arnold, this slippage is due to the lengthy procedures instituted by the NRC as a precondition for the return of THI-l to service. In its annual review meeting before the Commission held on Se p t em b e r 21, 1979, Met-Ed included, on page 30 of the booklet handed out at the meeting and incorporated in this record as Exhibit F-1, a capsule summary of the NRC's t e n t a t iv e TMI-1 restart schedule. That schedule indicates that the 1548 026 NRC could render a decision in the TMI-l restart proceeding by mid-August, 1980, and Met-Ed has, for purposes of its energy clause petition, accordingly assumed a TMI-l return date of 9/1/80. Until the regulatory and political c lim a t e surrounding the TMI accident stabilizes and although Met-Ed and GPU will exert every ef fort to get TMI-l returned to service as soon as possible, this projected return date must be c ons id e red t e n t a t iv e at best.

Q. You noted that the Commission a s sum e d Me t-E d would be able to achieve substantial savings in energy costs by virtue of arranging short-term power purchases with other utilities.

What has Met-Ed's experience been with such purchases since the accident?

A. Met-Ed be li ev e s that it, or mo re precisely, that GPU acting on behalf of Met-Ed and the other GPU operating companies, has beer. ve ry ag r e s s iv e in seeking out such purchases, and it is confident that it has carried out th e Commission's directives on this sc ore. However, because the price of oil has risen substantially since the time the budget used in determining the level factor was prepared, the savings in energy costs achieved from the purchases have been largely offset by increases in the cost o f TM1 replacement energy, which is largely oil-fired in source. Analysis of our experience with the purchases through September indicates that they have

_ , _ 1548 027

reduced Met-Ed's energy costs by about $ 12.5 million over the 5-month period from May through September, or by about $ 2.5 million per month. This e s t im a t e is supported by the t e s t im o ny and exhibits of witness E. Newton, Jr.

While the es tima ted mon thly savings of $2.5 million from the purchases is in line with the level of savings assumed by the Commission in determining the 8.8 mill level factor, we e s t im a t e that Met-Ed's cost of TMI replacement energy with both TMI units out has increased from our original estimate of $ 10 million per month to about $14 million per month, which represents the average monthly replacement cost Met-Ed has experienced since the TMI accident, i.e., from April through October, 1979.

This increase has accordingly more than offset the savings we in a v e achieved from the outside power purchases so far.

Q. Could you brie fly indicate how GPU's negotiations to reduce the cost of interchange purchased from PJM have fared?

A. Yes. On October 10, 1979, in response to the Commission's Order, Met-Ed and Penelec filed a petition seeking Commission approval of a PJM proposal to price GPU's TMI-related interchange purchases from PJM at cost plus 10%, rather than on PJM's no rm a l " split-savings" basis.

We e s t im a t e that savings in interchange costs from this proposal could be as high as $32 million in 1980 on a CPU basis, of which Met-Ed's share would be about $5.5 1548 028 million, but note that this estimate is not incremental to the savings achieved from the outside power purchases.

That is, if the PJM proposal were adopted, the interchange energy purchased under it would largely be in replacement of, rather than in addition to, many of the s h o r t- t e rm power purchases we are now making. We would therefore to some extent be s im p ly substituting PJM savings for s av i n g s we are now achieving from the outside power purchases. A major advantage of PJM interchange under the cost plus 10% proposal, however, would be the greater reliability of its supply, as compared to the purchases.

Q. lia s the PJM proposal gone into effect?

A. The PJM proposal has been approved by the Pennsylvania Commission by its Order entered 11/20/79, but currently is awaiting approval by the Maryland and District of Columbia Commissions. Following approval by these commissions, a filing with the Federal Energy Re g u l t. t o ry Commission ("FERC") will be made and it is anticipated that the FERC will approve the proposal without delay.

Q. In reference to the TMI-related purchases, you noted that witness Newton is providing detailed te s t imony and exhibits. Is similar t e s t im o ny being supplied with respect to PJM's cost plus 10% proposal?

A. Yes, it is. Witness R. H. Sims will discuss the current status of the PJM proposal in detail, and also review the contractual arrangenents associated with the outside power purchases. In addition, Mr. Newton's exhibits will s um m a r i z e the assumptions as to the level of both the outside power purchases and the PJM purchases that were employed in preparing Met-Ed's energy clause increase petition.

Q. You noted earlier that the slippage in the expected return date of TMI-1, and consequently the increase in Met-Ed's energy costs that will result due to the delay in the return of TMI-l to service, is the p r im a ry reason for the need to increase Met-Ed's level energy cost adjustment charge. Have there been, or are there increases in Met-Ed's energy costs as well?

A. Yes. Oil costs have increased substantially since the budget used in de t e rm i n ing the 8.8 mill level charge was prepared, and are expected to continue to increase in the future. The cost of coal by comparison has been r e l a t iv e ly stable, but may well increase in reaction to the oil price increases. We are now projecting an average coal cost of about $36 per ton for the year 1980. In October, Met-Ed's average cost of coal was about $34 per ton. In the case of oil, Met-Ed's cost increases have been far greater. In the prior proceeding, it was assumed that Met-Ed's av e r ag e cost of oil for the year 1980 would be about $19.20 per barrel. In October, 1979, Met-Ed paid an average of $28.50 per barrel --an increase of nearly 50% over the level previously projected

_ 10 - 1548 030

for 1980. Although Met-Ed's oil-fired generation does not supply a large pe rc entag e of its energy requirements, increases in oil prices substantially increase Met-Ed's interchange costs because interchange is largely supplied from oil-fired sources.

Q. Could you indicate the combined effect of these increases, as compared to the level of energy costs it was assumed Met-Ed would experience in the prior pcoceeding?

A. Since July, the first month in which the 8.8 mill level charge was billed, Met-Ed's actual energy costs have averaged about 26 mills per Kwh, as compared to total charges for energy costs allowed (under the Commission's June 19, 1979 Order) of 16.4 mills (8 mills included in base rates, plus the 8.4 mill energy cost component of the 8.8 mill level charge). As noted earlier, the Commission's de t e rm i n a t io n of the 8.8 mill level charge was based on average energy costs projected for an 18-month period, in which TMI-I was ar,umed to be in service for the last 12 of the 18 m on th s . The lower energy costs that were expected to occur on the assumption that TMI-l would be back on line by Janua'ry 1, 1980 will

. not in fact occur, and the costs now being experienced by Met-Ed will instead continue at their current level well into 1980. This would indicate that the 8.8 mill charge should be increased by nearly 10 m ill s , including taxes.

1548 031 Q. Met-Ed's experience under the level clause through October would ind ic a t e that a substantial cost under-recovery has occurred.

A. That's true. I might point out that this result was an-ticipated in the prior proceeding, but it was also a s s um e d in that proceeding that the initial under-recovery in 1979 would be made up in 1980. This will not now happen due to the delay in TMI-l's return to service.

As shown by Met-Ed's statement of clause revenues, expenses and deferrals that will be supported by witness D. L. Huff, Met-Ed's balance of retail energy costs unrecovered as of October 31, 1979 was approximately

$51 million, exclusive of the $14 million balance re c ov e r ab le by base rates. By the end of the year, we e s t im a t e the unrecovered balance will increase to about

$61 million. If Met-Ed's level charge were increased just to recover this deferred balance, an increase of 8.1 mills, including taxes, would be indicated.

Q. According to your projections, would such an increase be sufficient to provide for the cost increases you discussed previously?

A. No it would not. A " full cost recovery" re-determination of the level charge, essentially replicating the method employed in the prior proceeding would indicate that the 8.8 mill charge should be increased by 10. 6 m ill s .

1548 032 Q. How then did you determine that the 6.9 mill requested increase would be sufficient?

A. Our approach was to determine the minimum clause increase necessary from the standpoint of financial prudence, or the increase that is minimally required to permit Met-Ed to finance, using its currently availabic resources, energy costs not currently ~being recovered, thereby e f f ec tiv ely deferring a substantial portion of the increased energy costs that will result from the delay in the return of TMI-l to service to the period following the unit's return, at which t im e such deferred costs would be billed.

Q. And your cash flow analysis indicated that a 6.9 mill increase would represe c cuch a minimum increase, that is, provide a margin of safety with respect to Met-Ed's sh or t- t e rm debt limit?

A. Yes, it would, provided it becomes effective on January 1, 1980. As we pointed out in our response to the Commis-sion's prehearing order dated 11/16/79 that was filed with the Commission on 11/23/79, the clause increase required to keep Met-Ed's short-term debt below the margin of safety increases sharply if the increase is delayed. For example, if the e f f ec tiv e date of the clause increase were delayed until Fe b r u a ry 1, 1980, the increase for the period from February through June of 1980 would have to be 8.4 mills pe r Kwh to keep 1548 033

Met-Ed's short-term debt from exceeding the margin of safety. The corresponding increase assuming a March I e f f e c t iv e date would be 10. 7 mill s .

Q. In making these projections, what was assumed with respect to retaining TMI-1 in rate base?

A. All of our projections assume that Met-Ed's base rates will ~

not be reduced to eliminate the capital and operating costs of TMI-1. If Met-Ed's rates were so reduced -- and Met-Ed is confident that it will be able to demonstrate that they should not be -- Met-Ed's clause increase request would have to be increased by an amount equal to the reduction to keep its short-term debt within the same margin of safety.

Q. What is the impact of the requested increase on charges to customers?

A. As we noted in the clause increase petition, (Exhibit A-2) the 6.9 mill increase would increase charges to all retail customers by about 15.7% (Table 10) and charges to the aver-age residential customer by about 12.3% (Table 9). Even with this increase, Met-Ed's rates would still be lower than the rates applicable to residential customers served by several other Pennsylvania utilities as shown by Figure 6 of Appendix B to Exhibit A-2. We have since updated these comparisons to reflect rates in effect as o f Decem ber 1, 1979 with essentially the same results, as will be testified to by witness E. F. Carter.

1548 034 Q. Please describe what is represented on Met-Ed/Penelec Exhibit A-37 A. That exhibit provides a detailed breakdown, by month, of Met-Ed's actual energy costs during the period of July through September, 1979, and projected energy costs for the period of October of 1979 through December of 1980.

We expect shortly to update that exhibit to provide the actual data for the month of October, 1979.

Q. Do you h av e any additional comments to make?

A. Yes. Although Met-Ed is projected to continue to experience substantial cost under-recoveries even if it's requested 6.9 mill clause increase is granted, the reconciliation pro-cedures employed with the clause, which have long been ad-vocated by Met-Ed, insure that there is no possibi.lity of

, customers experiencing pe rma ne n t overcharges should Met-Ed's e s t im a t e s p ove to be wrong.

Q. Does this conclude your t e s t im ony at this time?

A. Yes, it does.

1548 035 Appendix A F. D. Hafer I am Vice President, Rate Administration of GPU Service Corporation.

I have been an employee and/or officer of the GPU System for 17 years. I began such employment in September 1962, having previously attended Drexel Institute in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, during the period September 1959 through June 1962, where my principal field of study was engineering.

During the period September 1962 to June 1968 I was employed by Metropolitan Edison Company, initially as an engineering trainee in the Planning Department, subsequently as engineering assistant in the Economic Analysis and Rates Department and, for the last two years there, my employment was as adminis-trative assistant to that Company's Vice President and Chicf Engineer. In June 1968, I was transferred to General Public Utilities Corporation, where I initially served as a staff assistant, becoming Assistant Treasurer in March 1970 and Treasurer in September 1970.

In August 1977 I was elected Vice President - Rate Administration for GPU Service Corporation. During the course of 1977 I was elected to the Boards of Directors of Metropolitan Edison, Jersey Central and Pennsylvania Electric Company. I continued to hold the position of Treasurer for both the Service Company and the Parent Company until the new treasurer was named in September of 1978.

I have appeared as a witness in rate cases of Pennsylvania Electric Company and Metropolitan Edison Company before the Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission, and of Jersey Central 1548 036

Power 6 Light Company before the New Jersey Board of Public Utility Commissioners. I have presented testimony in rate cases for those corapanies before the Federal Power Commission, and have testified before that Commission in a Section 206 investigation involving Metropolitan Edison Company. I have testified as a witness before the Securities and Exchange Com-mission in a contested proceeding under the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935 relating to Metropolitan Edison Company.

I attended the Irving Trust Company utility finance seminar and served as one of three utility industry representatives on the Atomic Industrial Forum ad hoc committee to assess the impact of President Ford's economic program which was presented to a joint session of Congress on October 8, 1974.

On behalf of General Public Utilities Corporation and its subsidiaries, I have periodically made presentations to Moody's Investor Service, Standard S Poor's and other rating agencies.

In the cource of my duties, I met frequently on an informal basis with utility financial analysts representing banks, insurance companies, pension trusts, brokerage firms and the like. I am a member of an informal group of utility analysts and utility financial officers that meet periodically to dis-cuss matters relating to the electric utility industry. On occasion, I also have represented General Public Utilities Corporation at the periodic meetings of financial officers of public utility holding companies registered under the

-Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935.

%. Supplement 1 to Met-Ed/Penelec Statement B Witness: D. L. Huff Q. Mr. Huff, are you familiar with the petition of Metropolitan Edison Company for a modification of the Commission's Order entered June 19, 1979 at I-79040308, which has been marked for identification as Met-Ed/Penelec Exhibit A-2?

A. Yes, I am.

Q. Was a part of that petition prepared by you or under your supervision?

A. Yes, the Statement of Retail Energy Clause Revenues, Expenses and Deferrals which is part of Appendix A to the petition, and which has been marked for identification as part of Met-Ed/Penelec Exhibit A-2, was prepared under my supervision.

Q. Please briefly identify what is represented by that portion of Met-Ed/Penelec Exhibit A-2?

A. As stated in Paragraph 5 of Met-Ed's pet ~ition, this schedule provides information with respect to the operation of the levelized energy adjustment charge (mandated by the Commission's Order entered June 19, 1979) for the three month period ended September 30, 1979. This inforraation also has been supplied to the Commission in the Company's monthly reports, filed pursuant to Paragraph 12 of that Order. Further, this data corresponds to the reporting requirements set forth in items (a) through (c) of the third paragraph of the Addendum 1

to Rider B (the Energy Cost Adjustment Clause) of Met-Ed's Tariff Elcetric Pa.PUC No. 42, which was filed with the Com-mission on June 22, 1979 in compliance with the June 19th 1548 044

. s Order. Rider B and the Addendum are also part of Appendix A to the petition.

This schedule shows that for the three month period ended September 30, 1979, retail clause revenues for energy costs amounted to $15.3 million. Total system energy costs amounted to $46.8 million. As stated in Footnote 2 of this schedule, those costs include the demand component of the cost of TMI-related short-term power purchases, consistent with Paragraph 4 of the Commission's Order entered June 19, 1979.

For the three month period ended September 30, 1979, the energy costs (above the level recovered by base rates) applicable to retail sales amounted to $29.5 million. As ,

of the end of September, 1979: $42.3 million of retail energy costs were deferred.

Q. Mr. Huff, I show you what has been marked for identification as Met-Ed/Penelec Exhibit B-3 and ask you if that exhibit was prepared by you or under your supervision?

A. Yes, Exhibit B-3 was prepared under my supervision.

Q. Would you please identify what is represented by that exhibit.

A. Exhibit B-3 provides the same type of information contained in the schedule which I have just described, updated to reflect retail energy clause revenues, expenses and deferrale through the end of October, 1979. For the four month period ended October 31, 1979, energy costs (above the level recovered by base rates) applicable to retail sales amounted to $43.1 million, 1548 045

an increase of $13.6 million over the three month level at -

September 30. Met-Ed's balance of retail energy costs deferred rose from $42.3 million as of the end of September, 1979 to $50.9 million for the four month period as of the end of October.

Q. Does this complete your testimony at this time?

A. Yes, but I do wish to point out that I have also submitted Met-Ed/Penelec Statement B and Met-Ed/Penelec Exhibits B-1 and B-2, in connection with a base rate future teet year period.

In the event that additional testimony may be required in connection with that data or any subsequently filed Met-Ed base rate data, I will furnish such testimony.

Met-Ed/Penelec Statement E Witness: B. _H . Cherry TESTIMONY OF B. H. CHERRY Before the Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission Q. Please state your name and address?

A. My name is Bernard H. Cherry. My address is 100 Interpace Parkway, Parsippany, New Jersey.

Q. By wh om are yo i employed, and in what capacity?

A. I am employed by GPU S e rv i c e Corporation (GPUSC) as Vice President, Corporate Planning.

Q. Please state yot'r educational, professional background?

A. A resume of my educational and professional background is set forth in Appendix A.

Q. Mr. Cherry, wh a t is the purpose and subject area of your t e s t im o ny in this case?

. A. The purpose of my t e s t im o ny is twofold: 1) to present a history of the planning and operation o f T MI- 1, and 2) to demonstrate the substantial benefits that Met-Ed and Penelec customers hcve already received and can expect to r e c e iv e in the future, as a result of the operation of TMI-1.

Q. Which of the exhibits that have been marked for id en t i f i-cation were prepared by you and under your supervision?

A. ?!ct-Ed/Penclec Exhibit E-1 has been prepared by me or under my supervision.

1548 048

Q. Have there been su b s t an t iv e benefits to Met Ed and Penelec customers as a result of the construction and operation of TMI-1?

A. Yes, there have been.

Q. Would you tell us what they are, please?

A. Yes. In t e rm s of dollar savings, l' . t Ed and Penelec customers have saved about $250 million because GPU built and operated THI-1 rather than an oil-fired plant. This s av i ngs accrued over the period of TMI-1 operation, from Sept. 1974 through Dec. 1978. Relative to a coal-fired plant, our customers have saved about $72 million. We expect that the dollar savings will be e n o rm ou s ov e r a period of 30 years (starting in Sept.

1974), more than $10 billion re l a t iv e to an oil-fired plant and more than $2 billion relative to a coal-fired pl an t.

Q. Given that TMI-1 was built, what are the advantages to PJM and PJM's customers?

A. In terms of oil savings, operation of TMI-1 s av e s about 6.7 million barrels of oil per year in PJM. If we assume the current price of $25 per barrel, this amounts to a savings of $168 million per year.

Q. Would you please describe brie fly the generation planning process?

1548 049

3-A. In the development of a generation plan, a multitude of some-t im e s noncomparable considerations must be studied and eval-usted and finally a judgement rende red on a specific course of ac tion.

We begin with an energy and load forecast for twenty years that defines expected demand for electric power by our customers. It is then necessary to design a system expan-sion plan to assure that the required capacity is available in a reliable, cost e f f e c t iv e , and envirennentally accepta-ble manner. The resulting plan is a mix of base load, inter-mediate or cycling, and peaking capacity units, bulk trans-mission and local distribution networks, all geographically c on f igu red in a manner to assure system stability and re-liability af the power supply. This is done in a decision e n v i r o nm e n t that recognizes emerging regulations on tech-nelogy, the maturation of that technology, and in recent years the considerable uncertainties regarding fuel prices.

Q. Please describe the planning th i nk i ng at GPU prior to and at the t im e the decision was made to construct TMI-l?

A. Ap p r oxim a t e ly thirty years ago GPU cmbarked on a program designed to achieve the benefits of e c o n om y of scale in generation facilities by installing units sized to the total GPU system load, rather than the loads of the indi-vidual membe rs of the system. Moreover, in order to realize the economies of transporting electric energy by wire rather than coal by railroad, the GPU System built an extensive transmission system and the first two 1548 050

units at its Shawville Station near the coal fields in Western Pennsylvania. As the system load grew, two addi-tional units were installed at Shawville and another at Seward, also located near the Pennsylvania coal fields.

While it was fe a s ib le fcr the GPU companies to build a significant part of the generating capacity at or near mine mouth, reliability considerations also made it necessary to build generating capacity in the Eastern portions of the se rv i c e area. Therefore, during this same t im e frame, coal-fired generating units were installed at the Portland Station (on the Delaware River) and at the Sayreville Station in New Jersey.

The GPU System also did some pioneering work on the develop-ment of extra high voltage transmission and in the promotion of tenancy-in-common ownership by nona f filia ted utilities or la rge mine mouth coal-fired generating stations, which led to the Keystone and then subsequently the Co nem a ug h and llome r City Stations near Johnstown. The CPU System is a partici-p a r. t , as owner of a fractional interest, in these three sta-tions; Penelec operates these three stations for the respective owners. Additionally, GPU companies constructed the Saxton Nuclear Experimental Generating Station to gain first hand experience with the construction, operation and maintenance of a nuclear generating facility. Through the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, the Federal Government had a c t iv e ly encouraged the development of nuclear generation of electric caergy.

1548 051

The decision environment in the mid 1960's, when commitments were being made for TMI-1, was cons id e rab ly different from that of today. Th is was an era when the price of fuel oil was approximately $2.40 per barrel, as compared with recent prices of $25.00 or more. This was a time when facilities were being constructed without the regulations of the Clean Air Act Amendments of 1970, and there was a strong national c ommi tm e n t to expand our nuc1 car generating capacity.

Thus, by the mid 1960's, GPU had substantial existing wholly owned Western coal-fired generating capacity ( Sh awv i ll e ,

Seward, and Warren) and was committed to several Western Pennsylvania coal facilities then under construction -

Keystone (in service 1967/68), Conemaugh (in service 1970/71),

and 1:om e r City Units 1 and 2 (in service 1969). Given thess commitments, and recognizing that our system was spread from the Atlantic Ocean through the States of New Jersey and Pennsylvania to Lake Erie, our future planning fo cu sed on the need for additional base load capacity in the East. Our fo recas t indicated that increasingly larger quantities of electrical energy would be moving cast; hence, for system stability and reliability reasons our attention was directed toward such locations as Oyster Creek (near Toms River, New Jersey) and Three Mile Island (near Middletown, Pennsylvania).

On November 9, 1965 the northeast power failure occurred.

On June 5, 1967 the PJM power f ailu re occurred. In re-sponse, Public Utility Commissions of the several states (including Pennsylvania) in which the PJM companies operate took a n um b e r of steps to insist that those utilities 1548 o52

both increase their demand forecasts and install addition-al generating capacity to provide greater reserve margins.

These steps included meetings of those Commissions as a group with the Ch ie f Execu t ive Officers of the PJM com-panies as well as continuing pressures from the steffs of the Commicsions. This insistence on the part of the Commissions was c ub s e qu e n t l- documented by the Annual Report of the New Jersey Board of Public Utility Commis-sioners for the year 1970. In that report the Board re-lated the fact that it had directed New J e rs ey electric utilities to install generating capacity to meet an obj ec t iv e of providing a 20% reserve margin while assuming their load would double by 1978. Identical conclusions as to the need to construct additional gen-erating facilities to provide at least a 20% reserve margin over the then forecast peak loads we re reached by your Commission in its Order of August 8, 1972 in the Met-Ed case at C.19312 and its Order of August 17, 1973 in the Penelec case at C.19561.

Q. Would you please describe the specific studies that led to the decision to construct TMI-l?

A. Beginning in 1962, a series of studies had been made be-tween mine mouth generation in Western Pennsylvania and 1548 053

coal-fired generation in Eastern Pennsylvania and New Jersey. These studies were un i f o rm ly favorable to mine mouth generation, with the resulting transportation of energy by wire rather than by rail. These studies led to th e construction of the above mentioned mine mouth generating plants in Western Pennsylvania of Keystone, llome r City and Conemaugh.

The re l a t iv e e c o n om i c s of mine mouth and Eastern coal-fired generation were also explored in connection with the economic evaluation of Oyster Creek (Report On E c 9n om i c Analysis For Oyster Creek Nuclear Generating Station, February 17, 1974). This also demonstrated the economic ad va n t ag e of the Western Pennsylvania mine mouth generation re la t iv e to Eastern coal-fired generation.

When studies were made in 1965 of additional nuclear generation for the CPU system (for a unit which b e c am e TMI-1), the economic comparison was made between n u c '. c a r and mine mou th ge ne ra t ion. These 1965 studies showed a long t e rm advantage for the nuclear installation, but probable short term advantage for the then proposed llome r City mine mouth plant. As a result of these studies, a decision was made in June 1965 to proceed first with llome r City.

1548 054

In 1966, the economics of additional nuclear generation were re-examined, but this time in comparison with a coal-fired unit at the same site as would be selected for the nu c le a r unit. There are two reasons for this shift in bases of comparison, 1) the particularly at-t rac t iv e conditions applicable to the llome r City Plant were no longer available as an al t e rna t iv e , and 2) coal suppliers had suggested that fuel might be delivered to the CPU site for 20d per million Btu, although this was not a firm offer of such a supply.

Even on the basis of this low delivered fuel price, if it should materialize, a nuclear unit installation was found to be advantageous. In November 1966 the decision was made to proceed with a nuclear installation in December 1966, the TMI site was selected for the installation.

The cost e s t im a t e s used in these 1965 and 1966 studies are far different from those that are presently made for both types of plants because of changes in cost levels and because of ch anges in scope related in large part to environmental and regulatory c ons id e ra t io ns .

The major environmental cost of using a coal-fired base load installation includes such items as the discharge of noxious and toxic gases, including sul f ur dioxide and nitrogen 1548 055

_9 oxides, the discharge of particulate., and the presence of unsightly coal and ash storage areas.

Another economic study was pe r f o rme d as part of the environ-mental report that Metropolitan E d i s o r. Company submitted to the Atomic Energy Commission, predecessor of the Nucicar Regulatory Commission, at the t im e Met-Ed was applying for an operating license. This economic study also showed that TMI Units I and 2 would be more economical than either coal-or oil-fired base load units for operating periods in excess of 5,200 hours0.00231 days <br />0.0556 hours <br />3.306878e-4 weeks <br />7.61e-5 months <br /> per year (capacity factor greater than 59%).

Q. Mr. Cherry, would you please describe the operating history of TMI-1?

A. TMI-l's nucicar reactor achieved its first chain reaction on June 5, 1974 and the first electricity was produced on June 19, 1974. During pre-commercial operation, 472,296 megawatt hours of electric energy were produced. On Labor Day, September 2, 1974 the unit went into commercial operation and has since established an exceptional reliability record. From Septem-ber, 2, 1974 until March 28, 1979, the date of the TMI-2 accident, the 75% undivided interests in TMI-I owned by Met-Ed and Penelec provided 17.9 million megawatt hours of electric energy or an average of 4.0 million megawatt hours per year. Such average annual generation is eq u iv a le n t to 1548 056

the average annual re q u i r em e n t s of approximately 530,000 residential customers served by the two utilities. Through 1978, the average annual capacity factor fo r TMI-1 was about 78%, which was substantially above the national average for nuclear generating units and for modern base load coal-fired generating units. Even if TMI-1 does not resume operation until January 1, 1981, for example, its capacity factor for the period September 1974 through December 1980 would still be about 56%, greater than the reported li f e t im e capacity factors (through August 1979) of some 20 nuclear plants owned by other electric utilities. Exhibit E-1 compares the capacity factor for TMI-I to reported values for other nuclear generating units in Pennsylvania.

Q. Have you racently studied the econc=ic benefits that TMI-1 has provided to Met-Ed and Penelec customers relative to alternative methods of electrical energy generation that were available to Met-Ed and Penelec?

A. Yes I have.

Q. To what extent, if any, would operation of TMI-l avoid the need to burn oil?

A. It would, of course, avoid the burning of considerable quantities of oil.

Q. How much oil would operation of TMI-1 save in 1980?

A. No rm a l operation of TMI-1 in 1980 would be expected to save about 6. 7 million barrels c2 oil th rough ou t the PJM system.

1548 057

. . - .m.

This is based on a computer simulation of the operation of PJM, inc lud f.ng the economic ordered dispatching of un i t s throughout the system. Absence of TMI-l from the list of operable plants requires that a num b e r of oil-fired steam units, and to a lesser degree oil-fired combustion turbines, be operated to a greater extent than would be required if TM1-1 were in service. Burning this extra oil when an alternative source of energy (TMI-1) is available is contrary to national policy and to President Carter's stated ob j e c t iv e of reducing oil consumption for purposes of electricity production.

Q. In addition to the economic benefit of TMI-1, is there any other benefit?

A. Yes. GPU has as a goal attainment of a mix of f ue ls for baseload generation rather than placing reliance on any one fuel. Experience has shown fuel supplies can be disrupted.

Commencing in 1974, reliable oil supplies have been dis-rupted by international events. In a recent winter, the region f a ced a coal strike and, in addition, blizzards and crippling cold which froze coal stockpiles.

Nuclear units, because of their economics are usually bece loaded. When oil is in short supply, coal is used more e x t e n s iv e ly to make up the deficiency. Conversely, when coal is unaveilable oil is used more extensively. The multiple fuel mix has not only helped GPU avoid serious fuel shortages, 1548 058

but has permitted CPU to supply electrical energy to neigh-boring utilities when they could not maintain fuel supplies -

to meet their load.

TMI-l o f fe rs Met-Ed and Penelec customers lowest cost electri-cal energy and independence from fuel supply disruptions.

Q. Does this complete your t e s t im o ny at this time?

A. Yes. In th e event that te s tim ony may be required, in c onj u nc t ion with a base rate future test period, with re s pe c t to projected nucicar fuel costs, I will furnish such te s t imony .

Met-Ed/Penelec Statement G Witness: E. Newton Jr.

Q. Please state your name and address.

A. My name is Edmund Newton Jr. My business address is P.O. Box 1018, Reading, Pennsylvania.

Q. By whom are your employed and in what capacity?

A. I am employed by GPU Service Corporation ("GPUSC") as Vice President-System Operations.

Q. Please state your educational and professional background.

A. A resume of my educational and professional background is set forth in Appendix A.

Q. Mr. Newton, what is the purpose and subject area of your testimony in this case?

A. The purpose of my testimony is to suppor: the interchange and purchased power co=penents of the forecast energy costs shown in Appendix B, Table 3, and the average annual PJM running rate depicted in Appendix B, Figure 5, of the petition of Metropolitan Edison Company for modification of Commission Order entered June 19, 1979 at I-79040308, a copy of which has been marked for identification as Met-Ed/Penelec Exhibit A-2. I will also supplement the testimony of Mr. R. H. Sims who will describe the GPU efforts made during the period following the Three Mile Island ("TMI")

accident to secure lower cost energy than that available on a split-savings basis from the Pennsylvania-New Jersey-Maryland Interconnection

("PJM") and the resulting short-term purchase agreements entered into by GPU. I will further present and discuss the major interconnection and bulk power supply agreements to which Metropolitan Edison Company

(" Met-Ed") is a party and explain how these agreements affect Met-Ed's bulk power supply and operations, and in particular, form the backdrop for the economic purchase of energy following the TMI accident.

1548 063

Q. Which of the exhibits which have been marked for identification were prepared by you or under your supervision?

A. Met-Ed/Penelec Exhibits G-3 through G-5 inclusive, were prepared by me or under my supervision. Exhibits G-1 and G-2 are composites of the principal interconnection and bulk power supply agreements affecting Met-Ed, and I will identify, discuss and sponsor them.

Q. You said that you proposed to discuss the major interconnection and bulk power supply agreements to which Met-Ed is a party and explain how these agreements affect its bulk power supply and operations. Would you please identify those agreements?

A. The agreements to which I referred are (1) the GPU Power Pooling Agreement, dated July 21, 1969, as supplemented (identified as Met-Ed/Penelec Exhibit G-1), among Met-Ed, Pennsylvania Electric Company ("Penelec") and Jersey Central Power & Light Company (" Jersey"), which is the basic agreement under which the GPU System operates; and (2) the PJM Agreement, dated September 26, 1956, as supplemented (identified as Met-Ed/Penelec Exhibit G-2), to which the GPU Companies acting in concert, are a party. Both of such agreements, and all amendments and supplements to them, are filed as Tariffs with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission.

Q. Would you please describe Met-Ed/Penelec Exhibit G-l?

A. Exhibit G-1 is a composite of the GPU Power Pooling Agreement, as amended to date. It includes the original agreement and all subsequent amendments in their presently effective form. As I mentioned the agreement is the major agreement controlling the bulk power operation of the CPU system and establishes the basis under which that operation is carried out and the resulting interchange transactions and billings among the GPU companies are carried out.

1548 064

3-The body of this agreement comprises a statement of general principles while supplemental schedules are attached which set forth in detail the various undertakings and transactions covered by the agreement. These supplemental schedules are modified from time to time as changing circum-stances require. The general philosophy underlying the CPU System is set out very clearly in Section 1 of Article II of the GPU Power Pooling Agreement, as follows:

"In order to obtain the maximum benefits of interconnecteu operation, the location, size and character of the installed generating facilities or the amount and source of any purchased generating capacity, shall be determined on a basis which is most economical for the systems of the individual parties as well as for the Integrated System, giving due consideration to the meintenance of proper and adequate service to the customers of each of the individual parties."

In essence, that agreement and the language I have quoted is designed to reflect the fact that Met-Ed and its affiliates constitute an " integrated public-utility system," as that term is defined in Section 2(a) (29) of the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935. An essential part of that statutory definition is the requirement tha t the physical assets of the entire GPU system, whether owned by one or more electric utility companies, be operated as a single interconnected and coordinated system.

Q. Does the GPU Power Pooling Agreement include any provision for the purchase and sale of installed generating capacity?

A. Yes, it does, and specifically, this is set forth in Article II, Section 2. ,

This section makes the following provision:

1548 065

"SECTION 2. To equalize the future benefits and burdens related to the installation or purchase of generating capacity, it is the intent that each party hereto shall provide a share, approximately proportional to its expected size, of the planned base-load generating capability of the Integrated System. To provide such share a party may participate in a lifetime ownership of capacity hereaf ter planned and installed by another, may individually or in association with other parties hereto purchase from others not parties hereto, or may by short-term purchase from parties hereto provide for its forecast temporary need for generating capacity. The amount and duration of such short-term purchases shall be determined from time to time after the effective date of this Agreement; and the conditions of service and the rates and charges therefor shall be set forth as supplementary schedules to be attached hereto."

In general terms, capacity sales and purchases will then be necessary to equalize the generating capacity available to the several companies and to redistribute among the companies the financial burden of providing that capacity. Such routine equalizing capacity transactions are covered by the provisions of Schedule 4.01 to the GPU Power Pooling Agreement.

Q. Does the GPU Power Pooling Agreement provide for transactions other than those of generating capacity?

  • A. Yes, it does. Also covered by the agreement are the energy and other transactions that permit full advantage to be taken of coordinated planning and operation within the System.

The bulk power facilities of the GPU subsidiary companies are also operated on a coordinated basis with the detailed hour-by-hour' operation supervised and accounted for by the GPU System Operations Department, located in Reading. This department is responsible for the reliable and economic operation of the System and for its performance as an integral part of the PJM systen. To this end, and subject to GPU's obligations to PJM, the System Operations Department schedules the operation of generating units, their loading for overall economy, and the scheduling of outages 1548 066

of generating units and of major transmission facilities for maintenance or other reasons. It also does the accounting for the interchange trans-actions among the GPU companies and for transactions with other utilities.

In summary, it can be said that, as to bulk power facilities, the GPU System is planned and operated as a fully integrated unit.

Q. Would you please explain in some detail what is represented by Met-Ed/Penelec Exhibit G-2?

A. Exhibit G-2 is the PJM Agreement as amended to date. As was the case with Exhibit G-1, Exhibit G-2 is a composite of the original agreement and all subsequent supplements and reflects all amended provisions in their presently ef fective form. This agreement, to which Met-Ed, along with the other GPU Subsidiaries, is a signatory, is in practical ef fect a pooling agreement among six separate entitics, of which GPU, as a group is one. This is the major agreement under which the GPU System as a group is interconnected with the other electric utilities in the area. In turn PJM is interconnected with outside power pools through inter pool agreements.

There are several inter pool agreements to which Met-Ed and the other GPU Companies are signatories, but they are basically agreements between the members of PJM and other power pools with the benefits growing out of those agreements flowing back to GPU and to Met-Ed through the medium of the PJM agreement.

Q. Are there any elements of the PJM and the GPU Agreements which affect, in a major way, the bulk power supply and operations of the Met-Ed System?

A. Yes, there are two basic elements. The first which is fundamental to both of these agreements is that there is implicit recognition of the obligation 1548 067

by each party to the agreements to provide, on balance, a proportionate share of the generating capacity and associated transmission of the overall system. The second is that, under normal conditions and subject to area load protection requirements, the bulk power supply facilities will be operated to achieve the greatest overall economy.

Maximum overall benefit can be achieved only if all available generating equipment is operated on a fully coordinated basis which may mean that one company generates in excess of its own ie.ediate requirement with the excess sold on an economy basis to other participants as interchange, while another company may operate so that it is producing only a portion of its requirements and is purchasing the balance as interchange from other members of the pool.

Q. You have spokan about interchange. Would you describe the fundamental principle or principles of the PJM Agreement and the GPU Power Pooling Agreement as they both relate to interchange?

A. The fundamental principle of both of these agreements is a sharing of all benefits and risks incident to operation of the combined bulk power system of all of the parties. Each company will make available for the use of the entire system all of its equipment available at a given time and in turn will draw on the entire system for energy and capacity needs.

Each company will retain control of its own equipment so far as determining whether the equipment can be operated without damage and further will take advantage of the output of its own generation to the extent it is needed.

Every piece of generating equipment made available to operate at a given time is operated to the maximum economy of the entire interconnected system without regard to ownership.

1548 068

Maximum economy is achieved when the incremental cost (the cost of the next unit of output from each generating unit) is equal across the entire system. The highest incremental cost operating at a given moment is referred to as the PJM " running cost" or " running rate".

After the fact, it will be found through a reconstruction of an hour's operation that the dispatch for maximum econony to the PJM running cost will identify some companies as actually generating with their own equip-ment less than their own load requirements and hence are purchasing from some other member of PJM, while other companies will be found to be generating more than their system load and hence will be selling companies.

In each case the quantities being referred to are megawatt hours integrated over an hour for generation, load and interchange. Over a given hour the total amount of energy being purchased will exactly equal the amount beit.g sold.

Q. How are the PJM interchange purchases and sales priced?

A. In general, PJM transactions are made on the basis of sharing the " savings",

which in total is the difference between the out-of pocket cost for the energy being sold by the selling companies and the " avoided" cost which would have been incurred by the purchasers in the event tha t such energy purchased were replaced from the purchasers' own sources. The final result of these transactions is to provide the buying companies with energy at a lower cost than it would have incurred if there had been no pooling operation, and will provide the selling companies with their out-of pocket costs plus a share of the total savings generated. In effect, the savings will be shared equally between the buyers and the sellers.

1548 069

Q. Would you describe how the intra-GPU transactions are made?

A. The CPU Companies as a whole are treated as one company under the PJM Agreement and as a group participate in all transactions with PJM, both buying and selling. In reconstructing interchange transactions after the fact, GPU, in total, is identified as either a buyer or seller and settles with PJM exactly as each other participant in PJM does on a split-savings basis.

However, a further accounting refinement is ef fected within GPU wherein each company's transactions are reconstructed af ter the fact to determine the transactions which would have occurred within GPU entirely apart from PJM. For example, if GPU as a whole, is selling to PJM, the sale will be frv the highest incremental cost equipment being run on the GPU System which equipment would not have been loaded *o that level in the absence af a PJM transaction. The equipment producing the sale is identified by owning company and cost and the GPU companies actually participating in that sale will be reimbursed fully for the out-of pocket fiel costs when GPU receives payment from PJM. The excess receipt from PJM, which is the savings component, will be shared among all the GPU corpanies regardless of their actual participation in the transaction.

Having identified the generation dedicated to PJM during a specific hour, the balance by the same reconstruction procedure is then treated as an intra-GPU transaction. All intra-GPU transactions are priced at " cost" and therefore split-savings are not utilized for the pricing of those transactions. During a given hour the result of this two part transaction may have the effect of having Jersey generating 100 MW less than its hourly load, in total, but being identified as the seller of 50 MW to PJM i548 070

and after the isolation of the PJM t.ansaction, purchasing 150 MW from Met-Ed. The sale of the 50 MW to P?( would be at its highest cost (let's say, $40 per MW bc,ur) and its purchase of 150 MW from Met-Ed at a much lower cost (let's say $25 per MW hour). The end result is that the lowest cost energy is being retained within CPU and the highest cost energy enters into PJM sales.

Similarly, when conditions warrant, GPU may, in total, be purchasing from PJM and the GPU company, whose generation is less than its load, is identified as the purchaser. Such energy is paid for at the full PJM rate by such purchaser. The total GPU actual generation will next be accounted for among its companies in accordance with the respective excesses or deficiencies in meeting the company loads and the resulting intra-GPU transactions paid for on a " cost" basis.

Q. Would you please summarize the cost impact, upon the several GPU Companies of the basic interchange principles you have described?

A. Although all three GPU companies participate in transactions both with PJM and intra-GPU from both a buying and selling standpoint, the trans-actions with PJM will inherently tend to involve the company with the highest cost generation to a greater extent than the other companies.

Jersey tends to have the largest amount of high-cost generation from its oil-fired units at Werner, Sayreville, and of combustion turbines.

Therefore, when transactions are caused to take place by the loss of a base load resource such as TMI, the impact from an energy loss standpoint will be proportional to the respective TMI ownerships but the cost impacts 1548 071

- 10 _

till tend to be related to the cost of the alternative resources available and will tend to impact proportionately more heavily on Jersey than it will on Met-Ed or Penelec.

Q. You earlier referred to the GPU short-term purchases from other power systems since the accident at TMI. Can you describe for us the accounting treatment for those purchases?

A. Each short-term power purchase from other utilities is divided among the three GPU companies in proportion to their ownership in TMI (Met-Ed 50%,

Penelec 25%, Jersey 25%). Each company receiving such a purchase treats it in effect as a generating unit whose output it can keep for its own use or sell as interchange in accordance with the GPU and PJM agreements. If the energy is sold to PJM, the cost is based on the energy and operating capacity cost of the purchase and the seller absorbs the associated demand charges. For intra-GPU transactions, the weekly demand charge is divided

, by the weekly energy purchased and this amount is added to the hourly energy and operating capacity cost.

Q. You referred earlier to the PJM running cost. Will you please describe the PJM running cost as shown in Appendix B, Figure 5 of Met-Ed's petition, Exhibit A-2?

A. The rates shown on Figure 5 are actual average PJM running rates for the period 1970 through 1978. The estimate of 31.7 mills /kwh for 1979 is, in my opinion, a reasonabic and appropriate estimate of the average running costs that have occurred and will occur during the 1979 operation of PJM.

1548 072

Q. Are you familiar with the interchange and purchased power components of the forecast energy costs shown on Table 3 of Appendix B, Exhibit A-2?

A. Yes, I am.

Q. Where can the interchange and purchased power components of such costs be identified?

A. The breakout of such costs can be found in Met-Ed/Penelec Exhibit A-3.

Q. What opinion, if any, do you have with respect to the forecast levels of such interchange and purchased power expenses?

A. In my opinion, such levels of expense are reasonable and appropriate estimates of what Met-Ed can expect to incur in those areas during the forecast period, given the assumptions noted in Table 3. I might add that the assumptions, as noted, which directly relate to the interchange cnd purchased power components of the energy costa shown in Table 3 include:

(a) " cost plus 10%" pricing of TMI-related purchases from PJM, reflected in the PJM proposal contained in the petition for a declaratory order filed by Met-Ed and Penclec on October 10, 1979 and approved by the Commission; (b) the continuation through 1980 of other economic TMI-related purchases; and (c) the inclusion of the demand component of the cost of purchases; and (c) the inclusion of the demand component of the cost of TMI-related purchases through 1980 (the Commission Order of June 19, 1979 would allow recovery of the demand component only until January 1, 1980).

Q. With respect to the contemplated 1980 short-term purchases to reduce the effect of the TMI outage on energy costs, please indicate the amount and cost of Met-Ed's share of such purchases and also indicate the savings expected from such purchases.

1548 073

A. Met-Ed/Penelec Exhibit C-3, Page 1, shows that Met-Ed's estimated short-term purchases in 1980 will total 1,577 GWH at a cost of $44,639,000. It also shows an estimated savings of $33,031,000 from these purchases when compared to the estimated cost of $77,670,000 if purchased from PJM on a split-savings basis. Page 2 of this exhibit shows the monthly detail of the short-term purchases, and supports the forecast purchased power component of the energy costs reflected in Table 3 of Appendix B of Exhibit A-2.

Q. What is Met-Ed's estimate of its savir.gs resulting from the various short term power purchases since the TMI accident on March 28, 1979?

A. Met-Ed/Penelec Exhibit G-4 shows the most recent monthly estimated cost of TMI replacement energy for the period of April thru October 1979. The exhibit shows the replacement cost before short-term power offset, and the estimated savings from short-term purchases.

Q. What is Met-Ed's estimate of its savings from the PJM proposal which was the subject of the Petition for Declaratory Order filed on October 10, 1979 in Docket No. I-79040308?

A. Paragraph 4 of the petition for a declaratory order states that GPU estimated a savings of $32 million from the PJM special purchase of 7 million mwh. Exhibit G-5 shows that Met-Ed's share of those savings is estimated at S5.5 million from the special purchase in 1980. This amount of savings is included in the interchange component of the energy costs shown in Table 3 of Appendix B, Exhibit A-2 at this time.

Q. Does this complete your testimony?

A. Yes, it does. In the event that additional testimony may be required concerning reserve capacity, interchange and purchased power matters in connection with a basic rate future test year period, I will furnish such testimony.

APPENDIX A EDUCATIONAL AND PROFESSIONAL BACKGROUND EDMUND NEWTON JR.

I was graduated from Clemson University in 1952 with a degree of Bachelor of Electrical Engineering and from Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1954 with a degree of Master of Science in Electrical Engineering. I am a member of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers and a Registered Professional Engineer in the State of Pennsylvania.

I was employed in 1954 by Metropolitan Edison Company (Met-Ed) within the General Public Utilities (GPU) system. I served as Project Engineer and later as Staff Engineer in the System Engineering Department. In June 1968 I became Manager of Contracts and Rates for Met-Ed, a position which I held until May 1, 1971, when I was transferred to the newly formed GPU Service Corporation in the same capacity. In April 1973 I became a Vice President of Planning and Economics for the CPU Service Corporation and in August 1977 I became Vice President of System Operations.

My general area of concern throughout my employment has been with the provision and operation of the bulk power supply facilities of the GPU System. Among my specific responsibilities from April 1973 until August 1977 was the entire bulk planning process including load forecasting and the capacity program to meet that load. Throughout my employment another area of my responsi-bility has been the contractual relationships governing the interconnected operations of ti:e affiliates within the CPU group and of the contractual arrange-ments between the GPU group and electric utilities external to that group. In the performance of these various assignments, I have performed and directed economic studies including cost of service analyses relating, in general, to 1548 075

contractual relations among GPU affiliates and other interconnected generating and transmission utilities, wholesale for resale customers, and large industrial customers.

From 1969 through August 1977, I was also engaged almost continuously in the preparation of filings for rate increases and in the subsequent formal hearings. In the process I have presented testimony in formal regulatory hearings by the commissions in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, New York and by the Federal Power Commission.

My general area of responsibility since August 1977 in System Opera-tions has been in the coordinating of the planning, development and implementation of policies and procedures to optimize the economics and service reliability of the GPU integrated system operation. Included in the area of my specific responsi-bilities are the total transmission and distribution functions of the CPU System.

Among these functions is the System Operations Department which includes dispatching, interchange accounting and interchange forecasting.

Met-Ed/Penelec Statement H Met-Ed Witness: E. W. Schleicher

.e . _ .,

Q. Please state your name and address.

A. My name and address are E. W. Schleicher, 2800 Pottsville Pike, Reading, Pa.

Q. By whom are you employed and in what capacity?

A. I am employed by Metropolitan Edison Company (to which I shall from time to time refer to as " Met-Ed" or the

" Company") in the capacity of Vice President-Consumer

..ffairs.

Q. Describe briefly the nature and scope of your responsi-bilities in that position.

A. As Vice President of Consumer Affairs, I have responsi-bility for most of the Company's customer-related activities, including billing and collection, coordinating applications for service and requests for information, development and implementation of load management programs, public and employee communications, rate administration and load and sales forecasts.

Q. Please state your educational background and experience.

A. I have set them forth in the attached Appendix A.

Q. Have you previously presented testimony before this Commission?

A. Yes, I have. I testified in Met-Ed's Pennsylvania retail rate cases docketed at RID 64, RID 170 and 171, RID 4 34 and RID 626.

Q. What is the purpose of your testimony in this proceeding?

A. The initial purpose of my testimony is to support the basis for the 1980 sales forecast as it appears in Columns 2 and 4 on Table 3 of Appendix B to the petition Met-Ed filed seeking a modification of the provision of 1548 212

Page 2 of 3 the Commission Order entered June 19, 1979 with respect to the Company's net energy clause.

Q. Would you briefly describe how you determined the 1980 sales forecast?

A. The starting point was to analyze historical annual kWh sales within each rate group. These sales were adjusted for weather conditions to provide a normalized base from which abnormalities due to temperature variations had been removed. Sales resulting from factors such as increased number of customers and major expansions planned by large industrial customers were added to the base. Data on these factors was obtained via surveys of major commerical and industrial customers, and from area contractors and developers. Industrial sales were adjusted to reflect an expected mild recession beginning in latter 1979 and continuing into 1980.

Q. Would you please identify what is represented by Met-Ed Exhibit H-1 which is attached to your direct testimony.

A. Yes. This exhibit, which was prepared under my direct supervision, provides a breakdown of our present forecast of sales by customer class by month for 1980.

Q. Explain the distinction in the development of total sales and retail sales as shown in Table 3.

A. After retail sales were determined by the method just described, a sales forecast for the seven resale customers we serve was prepared. Each municipality or company is projected individually, based on personal contacts with the customers. These non-jurisdictional sales as forecast for 1548 213

Page 3 of 3 1980 will show a marked decline because Hershey Electric, our largest resale customer, has been acquired by Pennsyl-vania Power and Light Company and will stop receiving service from Met-Ed in March of 1980.

Q. What is the forecasted percentage increase in total sales for 1980 over 1979?

A. 1 per cent.

Q. What has been your historical growth rate for the past few years?

A. About 6 per cent.

Q. Does this complete your testimony at this time?

A. Yes. In the event that testimony will be required with respect to business office and consumer service expenses in a base rate test year period, I will furnish such testimony.

, Met-Ed/Penclec Statement I Witness: R . 11. Sim s s

Q. Would you please state your name and address?

A. Robert H. Sims, my business address is 100 Interpace Parkway, Parsippany, New Jersey.

Q. By whom are you employed and in what capacity?

A. I an employed by CPU Service Corporation as Vice President - Power Supply.

Q. What is your educational and professional background?

A. I was graduated from Ohio State University with the degree of Bachelor of Industrial Engineering in 1942 and am a registered professional engi-neer. Af ter service in the United States Army, during which I attained the rank of Captain, I worked for several years with the American Telephone and Telegraph Company. I joined Jersey Central Power & Light Ccapany (JCP&L) in 1948 as an enginect at its Allenhurst Engineering Headquarters. I later became Operating Superintendent and then Division Manager for JCP6L's Coast Division with headquarters in Asbury Park. In 1959, I was promoted to Superintendent of Transmission and Meters for both JCP6L and New Jersey Power & Light Company. In 1960, I became Superintendent of Operations for both companies. In 1965, I was made Vice President of both companics, and in 1970 a Lirector of both companies.

With formation of GPU Service Corporation in 1971, I was elected Vice President - Operations in that Company, and in 1975 Vice President - Power Supply, a position I presently hold.

Q. What are your duties and responsibilities with GPU Service Corporation?

A. I am responsibic f or bulk po.er supply pooling agreements both between the CPU Ccupanies thimelves and between the GPU systua and aternal power cyctems, and for feasibility oad coordinating supplies and negotiations 1548 217

with respect to, and utilization of, transmission systems, both internal and external to the CPU system. I also serve as the GPU representative on the Management Committee of the Pennsylvania New Jersey Maryland Interconnection ("PJM"), the Executive Board of the Middle Atlantic Area Council, Administrative Committees under various transmission agreements, and as Chairman of the CPU Operating Committee which administers the CPU power pooling agreements.

Q. k'h a t is the purpose and subject area of your testimony?

A. To describe the efforts made during the period following the Three Mile Island (TMI) accident to search for lower cost energy supplies for the CPU System.

Q. k'hy was the search for lower cost energy supplies necessary af ter the TMI accident and not before?

A. Prior to the TMI accident the GPU System's base load energy requirements were being met as economically as any system in the surrounding region, with incidental purchases and sales from outside sources being conducted under the existing PJM Agreement on a split savings basis. Any short term power purchases would have resulted in increasing GPU's average enerrgy cost.

As a result of the accident, CPU lost the use of two major low cost base load energy sources (TMI 1 and 2) whose energy output was immed i a t ely replaced by purchases under the existing PJM Agreement on a split savings basis. Since within PJM almost all of this energy was supplied frcu other PJM member cuapanies' oil-fired steam generating units, end GPU's only immediate alternative to such purchases was its even higher-cost oil-fired combustion turbines, these two items (which detennined the price of such 1548 218

purchases under the split savings fomula) combined to drive CPU's total energy costs up by very substantial amounts.

Q. Will you please summarize the ef forts that were made by you or those under your supervision to search for alternative sources of power?

A. In response to such a question it is probably most convenient to break the situation down into two segments, nam e ly , that which took place within PJM and that which took place external to PJM. As to within PJM, as indicated earlier the added cost of energy from PJM af ter the TMI accident arose for two reasons. First, the PJM energy being supplied to GPU came from high-cost oil-fired units and second, the pricing of that energy on a split savings basis escalated that already high cost by amounts approxi-mating 30 to 50%. The large unanticipated sales by other PJM Companies to CPU, at a price determined under split savings, resulted in substantial revenues to them in excess of their cost. While GPU could not expect the other PJM Corpanies to sell below their cost, it did immediately open discussions with the other PJM Companies in an ef fort to reduce or eliminate the unanticipated added revenues accruing to them because of split savings.

CPU's position in such negotiations was further reinforced by your Order of June 15, 1979 which specifically stated in its findings that:

" Metropolitan Edison Company and Pennsylvania Electric Company will incur higher purchase power costs while the selling com-panics will generate unexpected revenues.

The Commission is of the opinion that the split savings pricing of interchange sales during emergency conditions is not in the public interest. We will direct Met-Ed and Penelec to petition FERC and to negotiate with the other members of the PJM Power 1548 219

Pool to eliminate split savings during emergency conditions and to price such power at cos t."

Ef forts within PJM first began to bear fruit when on June 7,1979 your Commission granted a Pennsylvania Power & Light Company (PP&L) petition for a Declaratory Order permitting PP&L to sell 200 MW of output from its Martins Creek oil-fired generating station to the GPU Companies at cost. This agreement was immediately filed with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission ("FERC") on June 9,1979. Supply commenced on June 11, 1979, although it was subsequently suspended on June 22, 1979 at PP&L's request until formal FERC acceptance was received. FERC accepted the filing on July 9, 1979 and energy has been supplied since that date.

In this connection, it might be noted that the PP&L agreement will tenminate when the proposed revision of the PJM agreement becomes ef fective.

In furtherance of additional relief from normal PJM split sevings accounr.-

ing, GPU continued negotiations with the other PJM member companies, which ef forts culminated in a petition for declaratory order to your Commission dated October 10, 1979 requesting that a determination be made that a proposed revision of the PJM agreement satisfied the intent of the above quoted directive of your June 15,1979 Order. The PJM proposal would pennit CPU to purchase up to 1100 MWhr per hour and up to 7,000,000 MWhr in 1980 at cost plus 10%, in lieu of purchase on a split savings basis.

Your Commission approved this petition on November 8,1979. The PJM proposal is now in process of being filed with the Maryland and District of Columbia Commissions by certain of the PJM selling companies and af ter their acceptance will be filed with FERC, af ter which benefits can finally start accruing to the customers of the GPU companies.

Q. Mr. Sims, will you please now discuss your ef forts in obtaining lower cost power from outside PJM7 A. Our efforts to obtain lower cost energy from sources outside PJM have obviously been directed to those areas where low cost energy might be available, namely, areas having available coal, hydro or nuclear capacity.

Our survey determined that to the south of PJM in the Virginia Electric and Power Company area, such capacity was short and no economic power available. To the north and northeast of PJM in the New York Power Pool and up into New England, some capacity was available but was oil-fired and, therefore, uneconomical since transmission cos ts would also have to be reflected as an additional expense. GPU was aware that some capacity might be available in Canada from the Ontario Hydro Power Commission

(" Ontario Hyd ro") , but there were some problems since GPU had no direct transmission ties with Ontario Hydro. The remaining area was to the west of PJM through the Allegheny Power System ("APS") to which GPU had direct ties and as a member of PJM had stand-by interchange agreements. Therefore, immediately af ter the accident, GPU directed its ef forts to the west with APS and to the north with Ontario Hydro and with the Niagara Mohawk Power Corporation (" Niagara Mohawk") (with whom both Ontario Hydro and GPU had transmission interconnection facilities) . CPU's negotiations with APS about possible energy purchases from it and our request that it survey systems interconnecting with it and located in coal supplying areas to the west of APS resulted in GPU's receiving energy starting May 7,1979 on an as available basis f rom companies such as the American Electric Power System, Central Illinois Public Service, Columbus and Southern Ohio Power Company, Illinois Power Company and Indianapolis Power and Light Company, in addition to receiving energy directly from the APS Companies. These purchases have been a major lower cost alternative to PJM's split savings 1548 221

energy, have supplied amounts up to 1000 MWhr per hour and were the major elanent in making the CPU System a naninal net seller of energy within PJM during the months of July, August and September of 1979.

Our negotiations with Ontario ifydro determined that a reasonable amount of coal-fired energy was available at a price beneficial to GPU's custo-mers, but our discussions with Niagara Mohawk brought to lis a t the fact that a transmission Ibnitation existed and that therefore this Ontario To obtain, this supply, llydro supply would have to be limited to 200 MW.

CPU relied on an existing international agreement between Ontario flydro and Niagara Mohawk for power purchased frun Ontario Ilydro by Niagara Mohawk, which in turn delivered the power to the CPU companies through a wheeling agreement which Niagara Mohawk filed with FERC on July 9,1979.

In our discussions with Niagara Mohawk, it of fered energy to CPU f rom its Oswego Station which, although oil-fired, burned high sulphur fuci and was competitively priced. This agreement was never consummated because shortly thereaf ter Niagara Mohawk's oil suppliers informed it of a supply disruption and as a result that offer was withdrawn.

One small, but very at tractive, short term capacity purchase frun the north of PJM was an of fer obtained fraa the Jamestown, New York Municipal System for coal-fired energy from capacity they had in cold standby since it received the major portion of its supply from the Power Authority of the State of New York ("PASNY"). Since Jamestown was fed by PASNY through the Niagara Mohawk system, a purchase and wheeling agreenent similar to the Ontario liydro agreement was developed and filed with the FERC on July 16, 1979. This of fer of 40 MW of coal-fired energy located approximately 1548 222 10 miles north of CPU's service area has been a firm and beneficial supply to CPU's customers.

It should be noted in all of the power purchases from outside PJM each of the major suppliers has required payment of a capacity charge. In addition, all of the supplies from outside PJM have a transmission or wheeling charge associated with the purchase. Even with the two aforementioned charges which do not appear in a CPU purchase from within PJM, the total cost of obtaining the energy delivered from all of the suppliers outside PJM was lower than the cost of alternative PJM interchange energy available.

All attempts by GPU to purchase major amounts of energy lower in cost than within PJM, from suppliers outside PJM, without any capacity or wheeling charge were unacceptable to the suppliers.

Q. Were there any possible sources of economic power which you did not investigate and utilize since the accident at TMI?

A. On the basis of our exhaustive search, we conclude that there were no sources of economic power which we did not investigate, and there were no sources of power which were evaluated as being economic (as compared with the cost of power purchased on a split savings basis from PJM) which we did not utilize, when available, since the accident at TMI.

Q. Are you prepared to quantify the results of the various power purchase agreements you helped to negotiate?

A. No. The day to day operations under the various agreements are the responsibility of the GPU System Operations Department under Mr. E.

Newton Jr. , who will present testimony as to the benefits that have accrued under these agreements.

1548 223

' ' Met-Ed/Penelec Statement J Witness: E. F. Carter Q. Would you please state your name and address?

A. My name is Eugene F. Carter and my business address is P. O. Box 1018, Reading, Pennsylvania.

Q. By whom are you employed and what is your present position?

A. I am employed by the GPU Service Corporation (" Service Corporation") as Assistant Vice President-Rates.

Q. Please state your educational and professional qualifications.

A. A resume of my educational and professional qualifications is attached as Appendix A.

Q. What is the purpose of your testimony in this proceeding?

A. The purpose of this testimony is to support the averments in Paragraph 13 of the petition of Metropolitan Edison Company (" Met-Ed") for modification of the Commission order entered June 19, 1979 (" Petition") and Figure 6 and Tables 9 and 10 which are included in Appendix B which was attached to the Petition.

Q. What is your testimony with respect to Paragraph 13 of the Petition?

A. I supplied the factual data which supports the averments contained in Paragraph 13. Those averments (a) summarize the overall impact that the proposed 6.9 mill increase in the levelized energy clause charge will have upon the overall charges to Met-Ed's retail customers and upon the charges to its typical residential customer using 500 kWh por month; and (b) indicate the additional retail revenue that Met-Ed estimates will be realized as a result of the requested increase. The detailed 1548 224

Page 2 of 4 support for the percentage and overall revenue impact of the proposed increase to the levelized energy adjustment charge are contained on Table 10, Table 9, and Figure 6 in Appendix B to the Petition.

Q. Please explain the contents of Table 10.

A. Table 10 demonstrates the total charges to retail cus-tomers after giving effect to the 6.9 mill proposed in-crease in the level energy adjustment charge. The reference point for Table 10 is RID 434, the proceeding in which the current base rates of Met-Ed were established by Commission Order adopted in May of 1978. To the average base rate charge of 34.590 mills per kWh allowed in that case, was added (a) a tax surcharge of 0.249 (i.e.,

.0072 of the base charge) and (b) the presently effective 8.8 mill levelized energy cost adjustment charge to show the currently effective average annual charge to retail customers of 43.639 mills per kWh. The proposed 6.9 mill per kWh increase in the levelized energy cost adjustment charge represents a 15.7% increase in the total charges to retail customers. The total. revenue impact of the 6.9 mill increase in the levelized energy cost adjustment is developed near the bottom of Table 10 where the projected increase is applied to 7,972 gWh of sales (the projected retail sales for 12 months ended December 31, 1980) to produce an overall revenue increase of $54.6 million. Of that $54.6 million, 1548 225

Page 3 of 4

$52.2 million is associated with the recovery of energy costs and the additional $2.4 million is associated with the recovery of gross receipts taxes.

Q. Please explain the contents of Table 9 of Appendix B of the Petition.

A. Table 9 demonstrates the dollar and percent impact on the total charges for various monthly usage levels of a residential (Rate RS) customer. For the typical residential customer using 500 kWh per month, the projected increase is $3.43 per month, or 12.5%.

Q. Please explain the contents of Figure 6 of Appendix B of the Petition.

A. Figure 6 has been excerpted from the review by Met-Ed/

Penelec before this Commission on September 21, 1979.

The chart was used to support one of the significant con-clusions that " Currently and historically, Met-Ed and Penelee rates compare favorably with other Pennsylvania utilities". Figure 6 (as so excerpted from Page 7 of the Met-Ed/Penelec review presentation) has been modified to reflect the impact of the proposed 6.9 mill increase on the total charges to a typical Met-Ed retail customer and the relationship of the total charges (after such increase) to the total charges of similar residential customers of other Pennsylvania electric utilities (as of September 1, 1979).

Q. Do the results shown on Tables 10, 9 and Figure 6 also 1548 226

Page 4 of 4 reflect today's conditions or have changes occurred which would necessitate their update?

A. To reflect current conditions, each of the tables would have to be modified. For example, effective for service rendered on and after November 2, 1979, Met-Ed's tax adjustment curcharge, Rider A, was increased from .72%

to 6.92% pursuant to the Commission's direction, as a result of the passage of Act No. 1979-27. Tables 10 and 9 reflect the previous lower tax surcharge percentage.

Figure 6 likewise is out of date to the extent that all computations were based on rates in effect on September 1, 1979; utilities other than Met-Ed have likewise increased tax surcharge percentages in the interim; more-over, changes have occurred in the energy adjustment clause charges of various utilities; in addition, changes have also occurred due to summer / winter differentials in the base rates of the various utilities. Met-Ed/

Penelec Exhibit J-l is an update of Figure 6 and shows the comparative bills for a typical retail custome r of the various Pennsylvania electric utiltiies during December of 1979. We propose to update these tables and figures periodically in order to reflect currently effective total charges.

Q. Does that conclude your direct testimony at this time?

A. Yes.
