This rider is not available to customers served under any other rate schedule(s).

    MONTHLY CHARGE:
    The applicable monthly charge and quantity of 100 kilowatt-hour blocks shall be based on the customer's rate schedule to which this schedule is a rider. The energy requirement of each block will be met with qualifying renewable resources. The customer shall designate the level of participation in accordance with the following option:

    For Schedules 7 and 20:

    $2.00 per Block

    Each block is equivalent to purchase of 100 kilowatt-hours. The monthly charge is in addition to all other charges contained in the rate schedule to which this rider is associated. This rider's monthly charge shall be applied to the customer's billing regardless of actual energy consumption.

    2. The District makes no guarantee of any kind that this program will result in the development of any amount of wind/renewable resources.
