Stakeholder Feedback Questions

  1. Do you support approval and implementation of the AMP? Why or why not? 

  2. Do you agree that the issue of billing determinant erosion due to the AESO’s current measurement practice, and the resulting impact of that erosion on rates and cost allocation, needs to be addressed? Why or why not? 

  3. The AESO has described the challenges in creating an accurate impact analysis in [Section 3]. Do you have any concerns, suggested improvements or different approaches to the impact analysis that has been carried out by the AESO, in light of the challenges the AESO has described? If yes, please explain. 

  4. The AESO has described the challenges in obtaining the AACE Class 3 cost estimates directed by the Commission in Decision 27047-D01-2022. The AESO has also described how it arrived at a theoretical maximum cost to implement the AMP, and existing capital cost oversight mechanisms that could be used for AMP implementation. Do you have any concerns with or suggested improvements to the foregoing? If yes, please explain. 

  5. If you support implementing the AMP, do you support implementing it with legacy treatment or without legacy treatment? Please explain. 

  6. If you support implementing the AMP, do you support implementing it in a manner that prioritizes the minimization of costs that would be recovered through ISO tariff rates? Why or why not? Are there other considerations or objectives that should be taken into account or prioritized by the AESO?
