Water is supplied by an owned lake, adjacent to the site
Wheatland Overview Performance Results • See Mitch Robinson
Wheatland Overview Infrastructure Overview • Add map and 100 feet overview of facility, pipeline, water
Wheatland Overview Contract Terms • May be taken out since it’s not relevant for Wheatland plant
Wheatland Overview Interconnection Agreements • Interconnected to two 345 kV lines. The plant has an interconnect agreement with both Cinergy Services Inc. (“Cinergy”), and Indianapolis Power & Light (“IPL”). With the dual interconnect, the plant has the option of dispatching into the Cinergy or IPL systems • Both Cinergy and IPL allow scheduling of energy into and out of each control area, giving the Wheatland Plant the option of generating power or filling the scheduled energy delivery from the market when market economics warrant. This enables playing day ahead vs intra-day hourly market to maximize optionality • This added flexibility ensures that the plant is reserved for operation only during periods of economic dispatch
Wheatland Overview Gas Supply & Transportation • Permitted to use natural gas as its fuel source • Interconnected to Midwestern Gas Transmission Company (“Midwestern Gas”), a natural gas pipeline system owned by Tennessee Gas Pipeline Company • The term of the interruptible gas transportation agreement and associated transportation rate began on April 1, 2000, continues through March 31, 2008 and will continue on a month-to-month basis until terminated upon thirty days notice by either party • Gas can be purchased at Chicago city-gate hub or from Gulf Coast
Wheatland Overview Power Markets Opportunities • West Fork Land Development Company, L.L.C., is qualified as an EWG, and has the authority to sell energy and capacity at market-based rates. The Wheatland Plant’s location in Southern ECAR, and its access to the eastern U.S. electricity market will provide sales opportunities in the wholesale power markets.
Wheatland Overview Control Area Status • The control area is designated ENWI and ENWC. The Wheatland Plant has been designated as two control areas in accordance with NERC policy • What is the benefit of having control area?
