There
are two
components
to
Cumberland
Electric
Membership
Corporation’s
energy
rates:
1. Rates
have
seasonal
energy
components
— that
is,
metered
kilowatt-hours
will
have a
different
cost
associated
with
summer,
winter
and
transition
(spring-fall)
months;
2. Rates
are
realigned
to
reflect
fuel and
nonfuel
components.
Many of
you are
already
familiar
with the
Tennessee
Valley
Authority
monthly
Fuel
Cost
Adjustment
(FCA)
presented
on our
statements.
The new
rates
will
move a
portion
of the
energy
charge
(base
fuel)
into the
TVA FCA.
This new
philosophy
reflects
the
wholesale
(TVA)
cost of
power
during
the
different
times of
the
year.
The
Customer
Charge
is the
amount
of a
monthly
bill
assessed
to cover
the
fixed
costs of
providing
electric
service,
regardless
of
sales.
The
cost-of-service
studies
used to
determine
the
amount
of the
fixed
costs
are
approved
by TVA.
