Timing of reserve markets Sample Clauses

Timing of reserve markets. In parallel to the timing of the “energy” product, it has to be also determined the timing of the ancillary services products. If co-optimization (energy-ancillary services) is to be considered, the timing of the ancillary services products is linked with that of the energy product. Here the alternatives are: • Long-term procurement of reserves • Short-term procurement of reserves • Day-ahead • Day-ahead plus intraday updates • Hybrid procurement • Reserves are acquired under different schemes with different timing (e.g. regulatory requirements satisfied on year/month/week-ahead; free bids complement the reserve pool on a day-ahead or intraday timeframe)

Timing of reserve markets. Efficiency Exclusively implementing long-term procurement of reserves clearly restricts VRE participation due to the limited predictability of its generation. Therefore, this option does not reflect the contradicting interests of renewable generators to take part in shorter time frames (due to uncertainty in production). However it can be considered a long-term necessary signal for some plants (e.g. to avoid some thermal units which are required to balance the system to mothball). Exclusively procuring reserves in the very short-term does not allow the participation of some slower plants. In this respect, some conventional generators prefer day-ahead frames, e.g. for start-up time planning (decision for thermal units is about 6 to 8 hours ahead) (Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxx, & Xxxxxxxx, 2015). The day-ahead seems to be a reasonable time frame to maximize the value of non-flexible resources. Considering the variant with intraday updates, market players with variable generation have the option to self-balance their deviations. This in turn provides the potential to “reduce the reserve power capacity requirements and costs in the balancing market so that fewer power plants have to operate in an inefficient partial load mode in order to deliver balancing services” (Xxxxxxxx & Xxxxx, 2015). Consequently, a combination of long-term, day-ahead and shorter-term procurement would maximize the value of existing non-flexible sources, while taking advantage of the potential of VRE to participate in the market.

  • How Are Distributions from a Xxxxxxxxx Education Savings Account Taxed For Federal Income Tax Purposes? Amounts distributed are generally excludable from gross income if they do not exceed the beneficiary’s “qualified higher education expenses” for the year or are rolled over to another Xxxxxxxxx Education Savings Account according to the requirements of Section (4). “Qualified higher education expenses” generally include the cost of tuition, fees, books, supplies, and equipment for enrollment at (i) accredited post-secondary educational institutions offering credit toward a bachelor’s degree, an associate’s degree, a graduate-level or professional degree or another recognized post-secondary credential and (ii) certain vocational schools. In addition, room and board may be covered if the beneficiary is at least a “half-time” student. This amount may be reduced or eliminated by certain scholarships, qualified state tuition programs, HOPE, Lifetime Learning tax credits, proceeds of certain savings bonds, and other amounts paid on the beneficiary’s behalf as well as by any other deductions or credits taken for the same expenses. The definition of “qualified education expenses” includes expenses more frequently and directly related to elementary and secondary school education, including the purchase of computer technology or equipment or Internet access and related services. To the extent payments during the year exceed such amounts, they are partially taxable and partially non-taxable similar to payments received from an annuity. Any taxable portion of a distribution is generally subject to a 10% penalty tax in addition to income tax unless the distribution is (i) due to the death or disability of the beneficiary, (ii) made on account of a scholarship received by the beneficiary, or (iii) is made in a year in which the beneficiary elects the HOPE or Lifetime Learning credit and waives the exclusion from income of the Xxxxxxxxx Education Savings Account distribution. You may be allowed to take both the HOPE or Lifetime Learning credits while simultaneously taking distributions from Xxxxxxxxx Education Savings Accounts. However, you cannot claim a credit for the same educational expenses paid for through Xxxxxxxxx Education Savings Account distributions. To the extent a distribution is taxable, capital gains treatment does not apply to amounts distributed from the account. Similarly, the special five- and ten-year averaging rules for lump-sum distributions do not apply to distributions from a Xxxxxxxxx Education Savings Account. The taxable portion of any distribution is taxed as ordinary income. The IRS does not require withholding on distributions from Xxxxxxxxx Education Savings Accounts.

  • Repayment of Amounts Advanced for Network Upgrades Upon the Commercial Operation Date, the Interconnection Customer shall be entitled to a repayment, equal to the total amount paid to the Participating TO for the cost of Network Upgrades. Such amount shall include any tax gross-up or other tax-related payments associated with Network Upgrades not refunded to the Interconnection Customer pursuant to Article 5.17.8 or otherwise, and shall be paid to the Interconnection Customer by the Participating TO on a dollar-for-dollar basis either through (1) direct payments made on a levelized basis over the five-year period commencing on the Commercial Operation Date; or (2) any alternative payment schedule that is mutually agreeable to the Interconnection Customer and Participating TO, provided that such amount is paid within five (5) years from the Commercial Operation Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if this LGIA terminates within five (5) years from the Commercial Operation Date, the Participating TO’s obligation to pay refunds to the Interconnection Customer shall cease as of the date of termination. Any repayment shall include interest calculated in accordance with the methodology set forth in FERC’s regulations at 18 C.F.R. §35.19a(a)(2)(iii) from the date of any payment for Network Upgrades through the date on which the Interconnection Customer receives a repayment of such payment. Interest shall continue to accrue on the repayment obligation so long as this LGIA is in effect. The Interconnection Customer may assign such repayment rights to any person. If the Large Generating Facility fails to achieve commercial operation, but it or another Generating Facility is later constructed and makes use of the Network Upgrades, the Participating TO shall at that time reimburse Interconnection Customer for the amounts advanced for the Network Upgrades. Before any such reimbursement can occur, the Interconnection Customer, or the entity that ultimately constructs the Generating Facility, if different, is responsible for identifying the entity to which reimbursement must be made.
