© 2003 Dominion VEPGA Contract Term –~ 4 years –August 1, 2014 to June 30, 2018 VEPGA members bound to contract DVP - exclusive electric service provider Transmission RAC, and Generation RAC rates set on carry forward to this contract Fuel rate, negotiated after Jan. 25, effective

© 2003 Dominion VEPGA CONTRACT CHANGE OPPORTUNITIES

© 2003 Dominion 5 LED Fixture Cost Review Review LED total installed fixture cost for each Sch. SSL Tier in two years (by ) Determine if Sch. SSL Tier rates should be reduced

© 2003 Dominion 6 Schedule RG-CM Effective on a pilot basis Companion only to Sch. 130 and 134 (Principal Tariff) DVP buys renewable energy for the customer For every 30-minute interval (sample): Principal Tariff Consumed kWh Renewable kWh Principal Tariff Adjusted kWh

© 2003 Dominion 7 Schedule RG-CM (Cont’d) Limited to 20 customers Sign up by June 30, 2017 Annual planned supply for renewable energy –> 1,000 MWh –< 24,000 MWh –In aggregate < 50,000 MWh

© 2003 Dominion 8 Solar Purchase Power Agreements SCC Pilot –Available to VEPGA –Access to 50 MW (first-come, first-served basis) –Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) w/ 3 rd party for solar or wind renewable fuel generator (RFG) RFG capacity > 50 kW and < 1 MW Only one customer per PPA All customer accounts on contiguous property (see Section III.A and III.B of VEPGA Contract) In accordance with all applicable SCC Rules

© 2003 Dominion 9 Net Metering Revised Net Metering provided –Per SCC Rules 20 VAC –Any future NM laws/regulations applicable to Va. Juris. VEPGA does not receive –Agricultural net metering and –Residential standby charges If net metering expanded, DVP may impose standby charges in addition to or in lieu of Sch. C Totalization only for those accounts on contiguous property (Sections III.A. and III.B.)

© 2003 Dominion 10 Solar Purchase Customer-owned solar installation DVP purchases all renewable energy and RECs from customer at a premium Premium (price greater than DVP’s avoided cost) funded by Rider G-CM contributions Available if Rider G-CM funding becomes sufficient

© 2003 Dominion 11 Renewable Options Existing –Renewable purchases under Sch. 19 –Net Metering –Solar Partnership Program –Rider G-CM Endeavor to provide VEPGA any new SCC- approved renewable options for Va. customers

© 2003 Dominion 12 Distributed Generation Pilot Replaces 2009 DG/Load Curtailment Pilot that expires New Sch. DG-CM Pilot available –> 1 MW aggregated load curtailment capability –On-site generation interconnected behind meter –Complies with PJM participation requirements for DR programs PowerSecure will provide monitoring and remote dispatch services DVP acts as CSP (DOMCSP)

© 2003 Dominion 13 Distributed Generation Pilot (Cont’d) DOMCSP enrolls customer’s load curtailment into PJM capacity and energy markets –Customer and DOMCSP mutually agree to size, value, and timing of the load curtailment –Capacity payment split 75/25 between customer and DOMCSP –Net revenue above customer’s energy cost, split evenly between customer, DOMCSP, and PowerSecure

© 2003 Dominion 14 CONSTRUCTION PROJECT CHANGES

© 2003 Dominion Construction Project Changes New Construction Project Pilot New Electric Line Extension Plan Project Design Errors

© 2003 Dominion 16 New Construction Project Pilot Consist of no more than two projects selected prior to June 1, 2016 by VEPGA and approved by DVP with an estimated cost of construction in excess of $250, Selected projects will either be new construction, or overhead to underground conversions. DVP will terminate cables, splice cables, make the facilities ready to be energized, energize the facilities, de-energize and make safe facilities to be removed, and perform any work requiring specialized skills related to the operation of DVP’s distribution facilities.

© 2003 Dominion 17 Pilot (continued) If requested by the Customer in writing prior to the design phase of the project, the Customer may perform the removal portion of the project using DVP approved contractors once DVP determines the facilities to be removed are de-energized and safe. The Pilot will allow the Customer to utilize DVP approved contractor labor at the onset of the project. The Customer will be responsible for staging the material at an offsite area.

© 2003 Dominion 18 Pilot (continued) Upon the project being released for construction, DVP will provide a planned scheduled start date for DVP crews that shall coincide with the expected completion of the Customer’s installation. This date may be adjusted by mutual agreement based on construction contingencies. The Customer will pay the actual inspection charges to DVP for reasonable inspection service provided by DVP. Pilot will test reliability and safety of VEPGA performing construction work. Joint working group (equal VEPGA and DVP members) will assess results of the pilot and determine if Contract should be amended to broaden the Pilot.

© 2003 Dominion 20 Line Extension New Services New Definitions: Approach Lines - Facilities installed from an existing source to the property of the customer requesting Electric Delivery. Branch Feeder - Facilities installed on the property of the Customer requesting Electric Delivery Service. Transitional Cost - The amount by which the estimated cost of providing underground facilities exceeds the estimated cost of providing comparable overhead facilities along the Company’s Preferred Route (switches, pads, terminals, etc. required for this installation will be included in the comparison). This cost difference in no event will be less than zero.

© 2003 Dominion 21 Approach Line Branch Feeder Dslj;fl;f;lllll

© 2003 Dominion 22 Approach Line Apply 4 years of revenue to overhead installations. If multi-phase or located adjacent to public rights-of-way and request is for UG, the customer pays Transitional Cost. Apply 4 years of revenue for UG installation if single-phase and not located adjacent to public rights-of-way. Dslj;fl;f;lllll

© 2003 Dominion 23 Branch Feeder Rated voltage > 50 kv install OH and apply 4 years of revenue credit (transmission requests). Facilities installed adjacent to public rights-of-way that can or will be utilized to serve future customers will be installed overhead with 4 years of revenue credit (Transitional Cost required if UG requested). Facilities not described above and where Bulk Feeder is not required will be installed UG and apply 4 years of revenue credit. Where Bulk Feeder is required install OH and apply 4 years of revenue credit (Transitional Cost required if UG requested). Dslj;fl;f;lllll
