Mr. Chris Swope, City Clerk
City of Lansing
124 W.Michigan Avenue,9th Floor
Lansing,MI 48933
Dear Mr. Swope:
This letter and attachments are being filed with the City Clerk as required in Article 5, Chapter 2, Section
5-205.2 of the Lansing City Charter regarding changes in rate structures and other charges.
The Board of Water and Light adopted the current Electric rate schedules on October 1, 2013,the current
Water rate schedules on March 1, 2012, the current Steam rate schedules on October 1, 2012, and the
current Chilled Water rate schedules on March 1, 2011.
Proposed Changes
Rate Chan,2es for Fiscal Year 2014
Electric,Water,Steam,and Chilled Water
The proposed changes would increase the revenue available to operate and maintain the Electric, Water,
Steam, and Chilled Water systems.
Accordingly, the Board of Commissioners has under consideration the attached proposed
increases. If adopted, the Electric, Water, Steam, and Chilled Water annual customer billings
would increase as follows:
Electric: Effective March 1,2014 $13,980,000
Water: Effective March 1, 2014 $ 3,226,000
Steam: Effective March 1,2014 $ 975,000
Chilled Water: Effective March 1,2014 $ 155,000
Other Changes for Fiscal Year 2014
The Board of Water and Light proposes a new electric economic development rider for large commercial
and industrial customers. This rider would be offered to customers when the availability of the rider is a
major factor for the customer locating or expanding its operations and when the rider will result in a
benefit to the BWL and its customers.

The Board of Water and Light also proposes a substantial reduction in the Renewable Energy Plan
surcharge for residential customers and most commercial customers. To more closely align customer
collections and program costs in the future, the Board of Water and Light proposes to change tariff
language to allow for automatic adjustment of the Renewable Energy Plan surcharge and the Energy
Optimization surcharge. Revised rates will not exceed the maximum surcharges allowed under PA 295 of
2008.
The Board of Water and Light also proposes an increase in the new customer application charge from the
current level of$7.00 to $10.00. The change would affect new customers for both the electric and water
utilities. This charge was last changed in 1994.
Public Hearinlf
A public hearing, scheduled for Thursday,January 23, 2014, at 5:30 p.m. in the Board of Water and Light
Reotown Depot at 1201 S. Washington Avenue, will provide an opportunity for public input on these
changes.
Revenue and Customer Impact
The proposed changes will increase electric customer billings by $13.98 million, water customer billings
by $3.2 million, steam customer billings by $975,000, and chilled water customer billings by $155,000
annually. The impact on any individual customer will vary depending upon the type of service received
and customer consumption of electricity, water and steam. The effect on various customer usage levels is
shown in Attachment C.
Very truly yours,

ENERGY COST ADJUSTMENT
The Energy Cost Adjustment permits the monthly adjustment of rates for the costs of energy incurred in supplying
electricity to retail customers. All residential and general service rates are subject to the Energy Cost Adjustment.
In applying the Energy Cost Adjustment,the applicable rate per kWh shall be increased or decreased by the amount
of the current Energy Cost Adjustment. The following definitions and procedures will be followed in calculating the
monthly Energy Cost Adjustment.
Definitions
Energy Cost Adjustment-the amount per kWh by which the applicable rates shall be adjusted for billing in each
month.
Energy Costs-those costs incurred in supplying retail and wholesale electricity. Such costs include fuel burned,
energy costs associated with firm power purchases,net interchange power costs,and costs associated with other
temporary power transactions. The cost of fuel burned shall include the delivered cost of fuel(base cost,
escalations,premiums/penalties,transportation,demurrage),outside lab fees and other outside costs related to fuel
procurement,and fuel additives such as freeze proofmg.
Over/Under Recovery-the difference between actual Energy Costs for prior months and the amount of energy cost
recovered by means of the Base Cost of Energy and the Energy Cost Adjustment. The Over/Under Recovery shall
be added to the Energy Costs for purposes of computing the Energy Cost Adjustment for each month. Energy costs
will be offset with wholesale revenues.
Base Cost of Energy-the average Energy Cost included in the energy rates of the various rate schedules. Such
amount shall not be recovered by means of the Energy Cost Adjustment. The current Base Cost of Energy is
$0.051962 per kWh sold.
Procedures
Estimated Energy Cost shall be projected for a twelve-month period. Any amount of Over/Under Recovery
(positive or negative)shall be added to the Energy Cost to determine the total cost basis for the Energy Cost
Adjustment. The total cost basis shall be divided by the projected total retail billed sales for the twelve-month
period resulting in the average energy cost per kWh. The Base Cost of Energy shall be subtracted from the average
energy cost to result in the Energy Cost Adjustment.
The Energy Cost Adjustment shall be reviewed and,as necessary,revised periodically in accordance with the
provisions of this schedule,but not less frequently than every twelve months.
