Cost „- ecovery Scenarios epA <br /> Scenario A: Project Goes In-Service 1/1/2016 <br /> ERMU Project Cost (for 30 Megawatt share) : Si 2 3 M <br /> Debt payments starting at in -service date (2016) : <br /> • $ 123 million, 30 years recovery at 5 . 5%/year interest rate = <br /> $698,380/month1, 2 <br /> ERMU customers pay for Big Stone II project <br /> debt service starting at in -service date in 2016 . <br /> • ($698, 380 per month )/( 19,710 MWh per month of BSPII <br /> output3) = $35 .43/MWh, or 3 . 54 cents/kWh of Big Stone II <br /> output. <br /> • ERMU payments for BSPII construction are fixed at this <br /> number for 30 years. <br /> 1 . Amortization is ($123 million * (A/P, 30 years, 5.5%))/12 months per year, starting 1/1/2016. <br /> 2. As in the RW Beck study, as a conservative estimate this figure does not include potential <br /> revenue benefits to ERMU of transmission ownership. ,7 <br /> 3. 30 MW ERMU share in BSPII, average monthly plant output at 90% capacity factor. <br />
