Development Of Rates: A rate and fee study was conducted to determine the appropriate set of
DPU-E rates and fees by computing the power purchase agreement and other "costs" to DPU-Eand translating it to cost-of-service customer "prices" for DPU-E supply of electric energy and
services. The development of the fees relied upon variables such as material costs, labor costs,
and lifecycles of the materials being installed.
Reserved.
Customer Access To Electric Consumption Data: In order to provide customers with the
ability to access, review, and download information pertaining to their energy consumptio
DPU-E may provide an online customer energy dashboard or web portal. Customers may
also access information relative to their energy usage by contacting a customer service
representative at the telephone number provided on their electric utility bill.Seasonality: The scheduled rates in this Section 8-1C-4 have been developed with the
financial consideration of the variability of the customer's consumption of electric energy
during the year. The rate's scheduled price to the customer reflects this variance, and with
the exception of the Purchased Power Adjustment described in 8-1C-4:4, no other seasona
components will be implemented outside of these below scheduled costs.
Rate Classes: There are five (5) rate classes: Residential (RS), General Service (GS), Primary
Metering (PM), Transmission Metering (TM), and Outdoor Metered Lighting (ML).
Base Rates: Reserved.
Rate Options: The customer may apply for optional rates after satisfying the specificrequirement pertaining to the given option.
Rate Groups: Flat and Time-of-Use (TOU) are defined as rate groups. Flat rate group
receives the same flat values for rates any time of day and TOU rate group receives
different rate values depending on the time of day.
With respect to the TOU Rate Group, all weekend hours are considered off-peak, and all
local, state, and federal observed holidays have no special consideration; rates will be
based upon the day of the week upon which they fall.
Customer Charge per Rate Class: All utility bills will contain a monthly customer charge

Rate Selection And Approval: Time-Of-Use: Reserved.
Demand Charge:
Calculation of Demand Charge: Demand charges, in units of kW, are calculated as various
billing determinants across rate classes as indicated in the schedule of rates in this Sectio
The demand values are calculated in the DPU-E IT systems based on the energy (kWh) value
obtained from smart electric meters. Demand values are calculated on an hourly basis
through the summation of the energy values across the 15-minute sub-hourly intervals: Foselect commercial and industrial customers with smart electric meters that have 30-minute
energy intervals, an hourly demand value is derived from the summation of the energy
values across the 30-minute sub-hourly intervals. The demand charge for the billing period
calculated using the maximum hourly demand value recorded during the billing period.
Coincident Demand Calculations: Coincident demand calculations shall be made for speci
SDPs with the SDP having two (2) or more electric meters which may individually carry the
full load of the premises served at any given time during a billing period (i.e. banked electri
meters at particular premises). Coincident demand calculations shall be made as follows. T
demand values as outlined in Subsection 8-1C-4.3.1 shall be added across the multiple
electric meters at an SDP for each hourly interval within a billing period (the "sum"). The
maximum sum for such calculation will determine the hourly billing demand for the billing
period.
Demand Adjustment: DPU-E will take electric system outages into consideration when
calculating the kilowatt demand (kW) component of utility bills. For any kW-delivered rate
component, DPU-E will ignore the demand values for any day that any given customer
experiences a power outage. Although power outages are rare in the DPU-E system, the
inrush demand for electricity following a power outage is normally greater than the typical
demand for ower, and usin such values will not be indicative of true demand. DPU-E will

Purchased Power Adjustment: The Purchased Power Adjustment (PPA) is an adjustment on
customer's bill reflecting the fluctuating supply costs associated with purchasing energy. An
increase or decrease in the PPA is dependent on market conditions. The customer's bill will
be adjusted monthly to pass the fluctuations in Naperville DPUE's wholesale energy supply
costs as a credit or debit. The PPA is based on a rolling six-month average of Naperville's
DPUE supply cost for purchased power. It will be calculated monthly on all energy usage(kWH's) for all customer rate classes and applied to a following month's bill.
Power Factor/Quality At A Customer's Premises: DPU-E requires customers to use and
maintain electric equipment on their premises (all rate classes, all types of premises) such
that they are not inducing a negative power quality on other customers and/or to the DPU-
electrical distribution system. Power quality attributes of concern are such items as
harmonics, distortion, VAr (reactive power), high voltage, low voltage, unapproved backfeed
and interruptions. The specific requirements for power quality are set forth in the DPU-E
Service Rules and Policies Handbook. If a customer is determined to be inducing a poor
power factor/quality to other customers and/or to the DPU-E electrical distribution system,they, through a written agreement with DPU-E, shall be susceptible to the power
factor/quality fee, to be charged on the customer's bill when infractions occur.

Facility Installation Charge (FIC) shall be paid before electric service is provided.
Electric service provided through ancillary electric meter(s) at such premises shall b
billed at the general service rate.
Residential Flat Rate Charges:
Flat Rate Description: These rates are available to all residential customers. They arereferred to as "flat" rates because each kilowatt hour (kWh) is charged at the same
price no matter when it is used. The customer bill may rise or fall depending on the
amount of energy consumed, but the rate remains at the same flat amount throughou
the entire billing period.
Minimum Charge: The minimum bill in any billing period shall be the customer
charge, as set forth in Section 8-1C-4:1.9 hereof.
Energy Charges: The following rate schedule outlines the flat rates for residential
customers. These rates are subject to any applicable Municipal and State taxes for

by determining the applicant's proportional share of the cost to construct the transmission,
substation and distribution facilities (hereinafter "backbone facilities") required to provide
available electric service for the proposed development. The IAC charge shall be revised and
adjusted annually beginning on January 1, 1997, and on January 1 of each successive year, on th
basis of the "Handy Whitman Index of Public Utility Construction Costs," as published in July of
each previous year.
Residential Infrastructure Availability Charge (IAC): For purposes of this Section 8-1C-6,
residential customers shall include all residential persons including, but not limited to,single-family detached, single-family attached, duplexes, townhouses, multi-family dwelling
and accounts servicing the common areas of any such persons (sometimes known as "hous
accounts"), but excluding hotels and motels. The IAC for residential customers shall be one
thousand dollars ($1,000.00) per residential dwelling unit in 2013.
Nonresidential Infrastructure Availability Charge (IAC):
Each nonresidential IAC shall be individually determined by DPU-E on the basis of
engineering plans and drawings submitted by the applicant.
The nonresidential IAC shall be calculated by multiplying the estimated maximum
non-coincident demand for the customer in kilowatts (kW), as determined from the
architectural plans and drawings submitted by the applicant, by two hundred ninety-
seven dollars and thirty-two cents ($297.32) per kW in 2013 where two hundred ninety
seven dollars and thirty-two cents ($297.32) represents the investment in the system's
backbone facilities expressed in dollars per kilowatt. This calculation shall not be
adjusted after its initial determination unless revised architectural plans are submitted
by the applicant before the scheduling of any construction by DPU-E.
Charges For Preexisting Service: Where there is construction of a new building or the
alteration of or addition to an existing building located upon a lot, block, tract, or parcel
which has an existing, previously used, electric service connection to DPU-E's electrical
distribution system, and if such construction, alteration, or addition will result in an
increased number of residential dwelling units located upon such lot, block, tract, or parcel
or an increase in the electric energy load from the previously assessed value to a
nonresidential customer, no building permit or electric service connection permit shall be
issued without payment of additional IACs calculated according to this Subsection 8-1C-6.5
The additional IAC for any other upgrade in electric energy load from the previously
assessed value shall be the incremental difference between the IAC for the service a
upgraded and the IAC previously assessed and imposed on the system as it presently
exists.
