Decision No. 1/7 of the Board of the Public Utilities Commission

Adopted 14 April 2010

Methodology for the Calculation of Thermal Energy Supply Service Tariffs

Issued pursuant to Section 9, Paragraph one,
Clause 2, and Section 25, Paragraph one of
the Law On Regulators of Public Utilities

I. General Provisions

1. The Methodology prescribes the procedures by which a merchant shall calculate the tariff for the following regulated thermal energy supply services: thermal energy production (except the production of thermal energy by cogeneration installations with an installed electric capacity over one megawatt), transmission and distribution of thermal energy and trade of thermal energy.

2. The following terms are used in this Methodology:

2.1. two-part thermal energy tariff - a tariff, in which the variable thermal energy costs are attributed to a unit of thermal energy sold to users, determining the energy payment, and the fixed costs are attributed to the total heat capacity requested by all users, determining the capacity payment. A merchant shall receive an energy payment for the thermal energy sold and a capacity payment for the heat capacity requested by users as a fixed payment regardless of the amount of thermal energy consumed by the users;

2.2. average annual joint capital value - the average value of the joint capital value at the beginning and end of the preceding period;

2.3. merchant - within the meaning of this Methodology a provider of public services, which has been issued a licence for the production, transmission, distribution or trade of thermal energy;

2.4. joint capital - the part of the sum of the own capital and long-term liabilities (for which contracts have been entered into), which is proportionally attributable to the fixed assets necessary for the provision of the regulated service;

2.5. thermal energy user - a natural person or a legal person, which purchases thermal energy from a merchant and consumes it for its own needs or uses it in energy supply or for other type of commercial activity;

2.6. thermal energy producer - a merchant, which only provides the thermal energy production service and sells thermal energy for the thermal energy production tariff;

2.7. installed thermal capacity (gross thermal capacity) - total thermal capacity of the installations producing thermal energy (excluding cogeneration installations with an installed electric capacity over one megawatt) in accordance with the thermal capacity of installations indicated by the producer; and

2.8. single-part thermal energy tariff - the tariff, in which the variable and fixed costs of thermal energy are attributed to the unit of thermal energy sold to users. A merchant shall receive payments for thermal energy according to the single-part tariff determined for the consumed thermal energy.

3. A merchant shall submit a draft thermal energy supply tariff (hereinafter - draft tariff) to the Regulator as an original written document and in electronic form. Together with the draft tariff the merchant shall also submit information and documents, which certify the justification of the costs included in the draft tariff.

4. A merchant shall submit information to the Regulator regarding the anticipated costs for the current year and the actual costs of the preceding year, the actual and planned accounting balance.

5. The draft tariff shall be calculated on the basis of the costs during one full year.

6. A merchant shall choose the type of the tariff (a single-part thermal energy tariff or a two-part thermal energy tariff) upon agreement with the thermal energy users.

7. A merchant shall calculate an individual draft tariff for each thermal energy supply service - thermal energy production, transmission and distribution, and trade.

8. When submitting a draft tariff for the production of thermal energy, a merchant shall also submit the thermal energy balance and calculation of heating fuel for each individual heat source (in accordance with Paragraph 29) and information regarding the costs of the production tariff.

9. A vertically integrated merchant, which produces less than 5000 megawatt hours of thermal energy per year, may calculate the draft tariff for all regulated thermal energy supply services together (for production, transmission and distribution, and trade).

10. A merchant, the variable costs of which (heating fuel or purchased thermal energy) depend on the final trade tariffs of natural gas, which comply with the trade prices of natural gas, shall calculate the draft tariff depending on the final trade tariffs of natural gas, which comply with different trade prices of natural gas.

11. A merchant, which does not use natural gas for the production of thermal energy, shall use the most economically advantageous price offer of heating fuel, substantiating it, as well as submitting a copy of the contract for the supply of the relevant heating fuel.

12. If the thermal energy produced in a heat source is used in the technological process for the merchant's own needs or is used for other purposes, all costs shall be divided proportionally to the energy amounts. Only such part of the costs shall be included in the draft tariff, which is attributed to the part of thermal energy transferred to the users of thermal energy, for which the relevant tariff is being calculated

13. The interest rate on the borrowed capital included in the draft tariff:

13.1. shall be justified with the actual interest rates indicated in the contracts of credit institutions, or

13.2. if the loan is not from a credit institution, it shall not exceed the latest average interest rate in lats for a loan or credit granted in foreign currency to domestic merchants published by the Central Statistics Bureau.

14. A merchant shall accurately and transparently reflect the necessary technologically and economically substantiated costs for the production, distribution, transmission and trade of thermal energy, including only the assets and activities related to such types of activity therein.

15. Payments to debtors shall not be included in the draft tariff (creating savings for doubtful debtors).

16. The forecasts of costs shall not include inflation, changes in the price of heating fuel or electricity, changes in taxes and fees and changes in other payments specified by the State.

17. When calculating the costs of thermal energy production, all such costs shall be included in the production costs, which are related to a cogeneration unit with an installed electric capacity of less than one megawatt and exclude from the total production costs the revenue from the sale of electricity, which are multiplied by a coefficient, which is not less than 0.94.

18. The value of the financial support received from a State, self-government, foreign state, European Union, international organisation and institution (financial assistance) shall not be included in the draft tariff, reducing the joint capital value and the depreciation of the fixed assets by the relevant amount.

19. In calculating the depreciation for the fixed assets financed from the financial support (financial assistance) received from a State, self-government, European Union, other international organisation and institution, the value of the fixed assets shall be reduced by the value of the relevant financial support (financial assistance), which has been indicated in the balance sheet item "Deferred Revenue" and determined in accordance with the procedures specified by the Cabinet, by which financial support (financial assistance) from State, self-government, foreign, European Union, other international organisations and institutions, donations and gifts in cash or kind shall be reflected in financial statements.

20. The maximum permissible profitability of the joint capital shall be calculated according to the following formula:

KRmax = (0,126k ‒ 0,026) × AR × 100 + (‒0,247z + 0,347) × APS × 100 , where
AK

k - coefficient for the calculation of profit calculated according to the formula: k = H /1200. If as a result of the calculation the value of k exceeds 1, k=1 shall be used in the calculation of the profitability of the joint capital;

z - coefficient for the calculation of profit calculated according to the formula: z = Qzud% /22. If as a result of the calculation the value of k exceeds 1, z=1 shall be used in the calculation of the profitability of the joint capital;

AR - the balance sheet value of the fixed assets attributable to the production of thermal energy;

APS - the balance sheet value of the fixed assets attributable to the transmission and distribution of thermal energy; and

AK - the total balance sheet value of the fixed assets attributable to the supply of thermal energy, determined as AK = AR + APS.

21. If, as a result of optimisation measures or investments performed by a merchant for increasing the efficiency of the thermal supply system, a reduction by more than 2% in the total costs of thermal energy supply services has been achieved in comparison with the total costs in the approved tariff, the merchant, upon submitting a new draft tariff, may calculate the component of the benefit from reduction of costs. A tariff, the calculation of which includes the component of the benefit from reduction of costs, may be approved for a period of time, which does not exceed three years from the time when the tariff comes into effect. If the merchant submits a new draft thermal energy tariff within three years, the time period for the application of the component of the benefit from reduction of costs shall be reduced, so that the time period of application thereof would not exceed 3 years.

22. The component of the benefit from reduction of costs shall be calculated as follows:

in the case of a single-part tariff: ISK=0,5 * (Iapst - I)/Qpiepr, [Ls/MWh];

in the case of a two-part tariff: ISK=0,5 * (Iapst - I)/QJpiepr, [tūkst.Ls/MW],

where: Iapst - the total costs in the approved tariff;

I - the total costs of thermal energy supply services after the performance of optimisation measures or investments for increasing the efficiency of the thermal energy supply system;

Qpiepr - the quantity of thermal energy transferred to users; and

Qjpiepr - the total requested thermal capacity.

23. A merchant shall include in a tariff project long-term (5 years and longer) credit interest payments.

24. A merchant may include the repayment of the principal sum of a long-term credit (5 years and more) in the draft tariff, if the depreciation of the fixed assets purchased for the relevant credit throughout the use of the fixed assets is not included in the draft tariff, ensure individual accounting of such fixed assets in the accounting system.

25. If repayment of the principal sum of a credit has been included in the approved thermal energy tariff in accordance with Paragraph 24, a merchant shall, not later than six months before repayment of the principal sum of the relevant credit, submit a new draft tariff to the Regulator, not including the depreciation of the fixed assets purchased for the relevant credit in the draft tariff.

26. A merchant may include the unforeseen costs or revenue in the preceding period, not exceeding one year, in the other variable costs or other costs of the draft tariff. Unforeseen costs or revenue may be formed by changes in taxes and fees, changes in the costs of heating fuel and purchased thermal energy, changes in costs, which have arisen due to the merchant changing the consumption group of natural gas due to changes in the amount of thermal energy produced.

27. The thermal energy tariff, which includes the unforeseen costs or revenue of the preceding period, shall be approved for one or two years, accordingly dividing the unforeseen costs or revenue of the preceding period into one or two year periods.

28. If the anticipated indicators of the amount used for the calculation of the tariff change by 10% or the anticipated total costs included in the tariff calculation change by 5%, a merchant shall submit a new draft tariff, which is based on the adjusted amounts and costs of thermal energy.
