Application:
This rate applies to electric service required by any customer
to whom no other specific rate applies and whose demand for
power meets or exceeds 20 kilowatts for any month within the
most recent six summer billing months or as determined by
the City of Austin. This rate is also available for buildings,
parks, and other establishments owned and operated by the
City of Austin that enter into a performance contract with
an energy service company, including the City of Austin's
Energy Services Unit, or that have installed a thermal energy
storage system. The intent of the performance contract shall
be to lower peak demand of the City establishment by at least
5 percent. The performance contract shall be verified and
approved by the City before receiving this rate.
This rate classification shall be applied
for a term of not less than twelve months following the month
in which the criteria is met. If a customer has made significant
changes in its connected load which prevents the customer
from meeting or exceeding 20 kilowatts in any summer billing
month and if the change has been certified by the Electric
Utility Department, the City of Austin may waive the one year
requirement.
