Plant Load Factor (PLF) Sample Clauses

Plant Load Factor (PLF). On this the petitioner prayed that the threshold limit of 55% PLF for payment of fixed cost should not be applied to units generated and exported using coal during non-crushing season. All units generated and supplied to the grid by using coal as fuel shall be paid for both fixed and variable costs. In response to this issue, the respondents averred that t h e Commission determined threshold PLF limit as 55% for the Bagasse based co-generation projects, by which time these projects would recover their fixed cost. As such, the fixed cost may not be payable beyond the threshold PLF limit of 55% even with usage of coal. Further, the Commission in orders dated 27-07-2010 in O.P.No.37/2009 between M/s. Vemagiri and DISCOMs allowed difference in additional variable cost incurred by generating company due to GoAP Section 11 directions and stated that fixed cost shall be paid as per PPA only. Now the point for the consideration of the Commission is whether fixed charges are to be paid upto 55% PLF only or for the entire units exported. While addressing this issue, it is to be borne in mind that the fixed costs are paid for the assets gainfully employed in the relevant business. Further, as per Commission’s Orders, the co-gen developer will be able to recover his full fixed cost at a performance level of 55% PLF itself. The type of fuel used (coal in this case) and the period of generation (non-crushing season) have no bearing on the fixed cost recovery as long as the short-fall in PLF on account of shortage of bagasse is allowed to be compensated duly taking into account, the generation with coal and during the non-crushing season. Hence, the Commission is of the view that fixed cost may be paid upto 55% PLF (the generation using coal during non-crushing season shall also be taken into account for computing the PLF) and thereafter, only incentive needs to be paid. The variable costs are any way payable for all the units supplied to DISCOMs. It is to be kept in mind that paying fixed charges for the entire units exported, amounts to paying more than the fixed charges, corresponding to the assets gainfully employed and hence, this request of the petitioner can not be accepted.

Plant Load Factor (PLF). The Plant Load Factor in a Tariff Year expressed in percentage is: Total net Electrical Energy measured at Interconnection Point x 100 PLF = (Installed Capacity of Thermal Power Station in MW)*(8760)*(100-A) Whereas A is the auxiliary consumption expressed in percentage of the thermal Power station.
