7 Daily AMI Approach 7

8 Daily AMI Approach Step 1: Extract Daily AMI data for the population by class (e.g. Residential) and compute the Daily Class Average Use per Installation (UPI): Step 2: Determine a District Unbilled Ratio District Unbilled Ratio District Unbilled UPI Profile Sum District Billed UPI Profile Sum - Districts read late in the month will have relative low Unbilled District Ratio. - Districts read early in the month will have relatively high Unbilled District Ratio. Step 3: Estimate the District Unbilled Sales District Unbilled Sales District Unbilled UPI Profile Sum District Billed UPI Profile Sum District Billed Sales 8

14 Daily AMI Approach Summary Leverages AMI Data Improved Accuracy # of Unbilled Days Will account for the Actual # of Unbilled Days Weather Impacts Actual weather and its actual impact on consumption Defendable Easy to explain Sum & Ratio 14

15 Daily Load Research Approach 15

16 Daily Load Research Approach The Daily Load Research Approach is identical to the Daily AMI Approach, however: Daily Class Average Use per Installation (UPI) Profile Replaced with a Daily Class Load Research Profile Model Backcast based on Actual Weather The Daily Class Load Research Profile Model estimates UPI based on the following: Annual Binaries (approximating for growth) Calendar Conditions (DOW, Holidays, Month) Actual Weather 16

17 Daily Weather Input Calculations Begin with 24-Hour Temperatures by Station Stinson, Randolph, Kelly, Airport Compute an Average Daily Temperatures by Station Compute multiple CDDs & HDDs by Station CDD 55, 60, 65, 70, 75, 80 HDD 65, 60, 55, 50, 45, 40, 35 Compute 1 CPS Daily Degree Days per Weighted Average for each cutpoint Stinson KSSF (50% Wgt) Randolph KRND (25% Wgt) Kelly KSKF (25% Wgt) Airport KSAT(0% Wgt) 17

30 Daily Load Research Approach Summary Leverages AMI Data The Load Research Profile utilizes some AMI sampling It can be used to validate the AMI method Improved Accuracy # of Unbilled Days Will account for the Actual # of Unbilled Days Weather Impacts Actual weather and a modeled impact on consumption Defendable Easy to explain Sum & Ratio 30

33 Monthly Model What are we modeling? Use / Bill / Day (UPBD) for the Billing Period: Use / Bill / Day (UPBD): Source Use: Class Level Sales Data Sales Package Bill: Class Level Number of Bills Data Sales Package Day: Average Billing Days Calculation Why? Level at which we have class data Establishes weather relationships based on monthly sales package data These relationships will be leveraged to estimate the unbilled period 33
