Company Profile:
The maximum output, commonly expressed in megawatts (MW), that generating equipment can supply to system load, as demonstrated by a multi-hour test, at the time of summer peak demand (period of June 1 through September 30.) This output reflects a reduction in capacity due to electricity use for station service or auxiliaries.
Industry:Energy
An entity providing a competitive spot market for electric power through day- and/or hour-ahead auction of generation and demand bids.

Use of energy as feedstock or raw material input.
Industry:Energy
Estimated quantities of energy sources that, on the basis of geologic evidence that supports projections from proved reserves, can reasonably be expected to exist and be recoverable under existing economic and operating conditions. Site information is insufficient to establish with confidence the location, quality, and grades of the energy source. Note: This term is equivalent to "Indicated Reserves" as defined in the resource/reserve classification contained in the U.S. Geological Survey Circular 831, 1980. Measured and indicated reserves, when combined, constitute demonstrated reserves.

Time clocks are automatic controls, which turn lights off and on at pre determined times.
Industry:Energy
The maximum output, commonly expressed in megawatts (MW), that generating equipment can supply to system load, as demonstrated by a multi-hour test, at the time of peak winter demand (period of December 1 through February 28). This output reflects a reduction in capacity due to electricity use for station service or auxiliaries.
Industry:Energy
Generation scheduled by the power exchange. See definition for power exchange.
Industry:Energy
The total revenue that the utility is authorised an opportunity to recover, which includes operating expenses and a reasonable return on rate base.
