September All-Requirements Project Rates
The average billed demand and energy cost for FMPA’s All-Requirements Project in September was $66/MWh, which was 3% above the budgeted cost. The all-in rate was $2/MWh higher from prior month projections due to lower sales and higher gas prices. Total external sales were 28% below budget with higher margin third-party sales 23% above budget. FY25 costs preliminarily finish below $78/MWh. The Rate Protection Account balance remained at $0. The agenda package from the Rate Workshop is available via the Portal. Contact: Denise Fuentes
