Peak Load Curtailment Credit (PLCC)
The incentive is a load reduction credit that helps customers save money and provide KCP&L load relief during peak times in summer months. Customers must curtail a minumum of 200 kilowatts to be eligible to participate. The incentive is a $10 per kilowatt credit per month on the customer bill during July and August.
Participating customers must be able to curtail electrical load on weekdays between noon and 10 p.m. upon 4-hour notice from KCP&L. Nights, weekends and holidays are exempt from the program. Curtailment season runs from July 1 to August 31.
KCP&L can call no more than 25 times and no more than 120 hours total during the curtailment season. Customers who do not curtail when called will pay a penalty for non-compliance.
Voluntary Load Reduction (VLR)
The incentive is a load reduction credit that helps customers save money and provide KCP&L load relief during peak times in summer months. Customers must have a peak demand exceeding 100 kilowatts to be eligible to participate. The incentive is market price based on a daily basis for each day called. Credits are paid monthly during May, June, July, August and September.
Customers are called for participation on a VLR day and have 2 hours to commit for that day. Each commitment is for one day only. Customers may decline participation on any day without penalty. Credit payments are only made for days of participation.
Real Time Pricing (RTP)
Customers who can reduce load or shift load to low price times can benefit from this incentive. Real time pricing allows customer choice and rewards positive action with market pricing. Those on RTP can also utilize KCP&L's online monitoring system to track load and real-time prices.
Revenue Justification
KCP&L allows a first year estimated revenue credit for non-residential customers against the standard cost of service. The credit uses a formula that computes 85% of estimated first year revenue from the customer project and compares it to the standard electrical service cost of the facility. Any service cost not covered by the revenue estimate must be paid up front by the customer before electrical service construction can begin.
