Common use of Quantity and Scheduling Clause in Contracts

Quantity and Scheduling. 3.1 Seller agrees to sell and Buyer agrees to purchase all of the capacity available from the Seller’s Generation Fleet and such amount of associated energy from Seller. Seller also agrees to provide to Buyer, in addition to capacity and energy, ancillary services that Seller has not directly sold to another third party. Before any of its ancillary services are sold to a third party, Seller shall consult with Buyer and shall offer to sell to Buyer any such ancillary services. Buyer and Seller shall discuss the appropriate charges and billing procedures for such ancillary services, and if necessary shall amend this agreement accordingly. 3.2 For planning purposes, sixty (60) days prior to the commencement of each calendar year during the term of this Agreement or at such other times as may be appropriate, the Parties shall determine in accordance with Section 3.3 below the total available MW of capacity and energy which Seller anticipates the Seller’s Generation Fleet shall be capable of providing (“Net Generation Capability”) during the next succeeding calendar year or during the time period remaining until the next determination of Net Generation Capability. Should the Parties fail to agree to a reasonable value for the Net Generation Capability for the next succeeding calendar year, the prior year’s determination shall be used. 3.3 In determining the Net Generation Capability of the Seller’s Generation Fleet, the Parties shall review the actual performance experience of the Seller’s Generation Fleet for the past calendar year and determine by mutual agreement a reasonable value for the Net Generation Capability of the Seller’s Generation Fleet for the next succeeding calendar year or during the time period remaining until the next calendar year determination. The Parties shall give due consideration to pollution control restrictions, the effect of any outage time required for expected replacements, extensions, and improvements or major maintenance of an unusual nature which is in excess of four weeks' duration which would affect the daily capability of the Seller’s Generation Fleet and any other factors as may be reasonably determined by the Parties to have an impact on the Net Generation Capability of the Seller’s Generation Fleet. 3.4 Unless otherwise agreed to by the Parties, the scheduling of energy shall be in accordance with the following: (a) Seller shall provide to Buyer notice of the amount of hourly capacity it has available (“Hourly Available Capacity”) to sell for next day delivery during a morning generation conference call which will be held at 0700 CPT each day. Seller shall provide such prior notice to Buyer so that Buyer may schedule the generation into the MISO Day Ahead (DA) market (which currently closes at 1100 EST) or into another market on the business day prior to the next delivery day that quantity of associated energy Buyer needs to sell into the applicable market for next day delivery. Seller should also provide, via an electronic means made available by the Buyer, the Hourly Available Capacity to the Buyer by 0800 CPT. Further, the Seller shall make all efforts to immediately notify the Buyer prior to the closing of the MISO DA market as to changes following the 0800 CPT electronic declaration that will affect the next day deliverability so the Buyer may update the next day schedule. (b) Seller shall immediately notify Buyer via a phone call of any change in the amount of capacity it has available on an intra-day basis so that Buyer may adjust Buyer’s energy schedule accordingly for both the current and next hour delivery. (c) In addition to the quantity of energy Seller indicated would be available to Buyer for next day delivery, Buyer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to schedule, no later than thirty minutes prior to the start of the next clock hour, that quantity of additional energy that Seller timely indicates to Buyer will become available for next hour delivery. (d) All energy shall be scheduled for delivery in whole megawatts. Seller shall be excused from its obligation to deliver and shall not be obligated to operate any unit or units within the Seller’s Generation fleet for delivery of energy hereunder where the amount of energy scheduled by Buyer cannot be delivered by operating one or more of the units in the Seller’s Generation Fleet at or above the minimum run requirement for such unit or units (“Minimum Run Requirement”). Seller shall provide reasonable notice to Buyer when Buyer fails to schedule a sufficient amount of energy to satisfy the Minimum Run Requirement.

Any Reduction Election Quantity will be deducted in substantially equal monthly quantities throughout the applicable Calendar Year. Any Reduction Election Quantity attributable to an election by Buyer or Seller anticipates the Seller’s Generation Fleet under this paragraph shall be capable of providing (“Net Generation Capability”) during made up in the next succeeding calendar year or during Calendar Year immediately following the time period remaining until applicable Calendar Year on a mutually agreed upon delivery schedule or, if the next determination of Net Generation Capability. Should the Parties fail parties are unable to agree upon such a delivery schedule, then on a pro rata basis. In no event will any Reduction Election Quantity be required to a reasonable value for the Net Generation Capability for the next succeeding calendar year, the prior year’s determination shall be used. 3.3 In determining the Net Generation Capability of the Seller’s Generation Fleet, the Parties shall review the actual performance experience of the Seller’s Generation Fleet for the past calendar year and determine by mutual agreement a reasonable value for the Net Generation Capability of the Seller’s Generation Fleet for the next succeeding calendar year or during the time period remaining until the next calendar year determination. The Parties shall give due consideration to pollution control restrictions, the effect of any outage time required for expected replacements, extensions, and improvements or major maintenance of an unusual nature which is in excess of four weeks' duration which would affect the daily capability of the Seller’s Generation Fleet and any other factors as may be reasonably determined by the Parties to have an impact on the Net Generation Capability of the Seller’s Generation Fleet. 3.4 Unless otherwise agreed to by the Parties, the scheduling of energy shall be in accordance with the following: (a) Seller shall provide to Buyer notice of the amount of hourly capacity it has available (“Hourly Available Capacity”) to sell for next day delivery during a morning generation conference call which will be held at 0700 CPT each day.
