STURGEON BAY ELECTRIC UTILITY
Parallel Generation (20 kW or less) -- Net Energy Billing
EFFECTIVE: July 1, 2026
PSCW AUTHORIZATION: Final Decision in Docket 5780-TE-111 issued April 6, 2026
1. Effective In
All territories served by the utility.
2. Availability
Available for single-phase and three-phase customers generating power using renewable
resource generators that satisfy the requirements of “qualifying facility” status under Part 292 of
the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission’s regulations under the Public Utility Regulatory
Policies Act of 1978 where a part or all of the electrical requirements of the customer are
supplied by the customer’s generating facilities located behind-the-meter (BTM) on the
customer’s premises, where such facilities have a total generating capability of 20 kW alternating
current (AC) or less, where such facilities are connected in parallel with the utility and where
such facilities are approved by the utility.
3. Rate
The customer shall be billed monthly on a net energy basis and shall pay the customer charge
and energy charge(s) specified in the rate schedule under which the customer is served. When the
energy produced exceeds energy consumed for the billing month, the customer shall be credited
for the excess energy volumes at the energy credit component (multiplied by the loss factor)
specified for BTM COGS in the utility’s Pgs-2 rate schedule, unless the customer qualifies for
the rate described in the next paragraph. The buy-back energy rates will be reset annually for
billing on or after February 1 of each year based on the most recent three-year average locational
marginal price of energy in MISO at the WEC.WPPI commercial pricing node.
The following customers will continue to be credited for net monthly excess generation at the
energy rate specified in the rate schedule under which the customer purchases energy, including
the monthly power cost adjustment clause (PCAC), until April 30, 2036: a) customers taking
service under this rate schedule prior to April 6, 2026;. A customer that makes changes to the
capacity or type of its generation facilities after April 6, 2026 will be treated as a new customer
and shall be subject to the standard avoided cost rate.
If, in any month, the customer’s bill has a credit balance of $100 or less, the amount shall be
credited to subsequent bills until a debit balance is reestablished. If the credit balance is more
than $100, the utility shall reimburse the customer by check upon request. Monthly credits shall
be computed by taking the net excess kilowatt-hours produced times the applicable energy
charge.

Parallel Generation (20 kW or less) -- Net Energy Billing
EFFECTIVE: July 1, 2026
PSCW AUTHORIZATION: Final Decision in Docket 5780-TE-111 issued April 6, 2026
4. Metering and Services Facilities
A customer who is served under a regular rate schedule shall have any ratchet and/or other
device removed from the meter to allow reverse power flow and measurement of net energy
used. Customers eligible for net energy billing but with existing metering facilities equipped
with ratchets or other devices preventing reverse registration (i.e. time-of-use metering facilities)
may request that the utility install the necessary metering to permit such billing.
Non-Standard Meter Service, if any, is not available for customers electing the Pgs-1 Schedule.
5. Customer Obligation
See Wis. Admin. Code ch. PSC 119; Rules for Interconnecting Distributed Generation Facilities.
6. Renewable Energy Credits and Benefits
All renewable energy credits and benefits, emissions allowances, or other renewable energy, air
emissions, or environmental benefits for which the customer’s generation system qualifies under
any existing or future applicable law shall remain the property of the customer.

Customer-Owned Generation Systems (Greater than 20 kW)
EFFECTIVE: July 1, 2026
PSCW AUTHORIZATION: Final Decision in Docket 5780-TE-111 issued April 6, 2026
1. Effective In
All territories served by the utility.
2. Availability
Available for single-phase and three-phase customers generating power using renewable
resource generators that satisfy the requirements of “qualifying facility” status under Part 292
of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission’s regulations under the Public Utility
Regulatory Policies Act of 1978 who desire to sell excess generation to the utility from
behind-the-meter (BTM) customer-owned generation systems (COGS), or who sell all
generation to the utility from front-of-the-meter (FTM) COGS. For BTM COGS, a part or
all of the electrical requirements of the customer are supplied by the COGS located on the
customer’s premises. For FTM COGS, all of the generation is sold to the utility under an
executed service agreement between the COGS and the utility, and all of the customer’s
electricity usage is supplied separately by the utility under applicable retail service schedules.
In either case, BTM or FTM, such facilities shall have a total generating capability of greater
than 20 kW and less than or equal to 5 MW alternating current (AC), with such facilities
connected in parallel with the utility, and where such facilities are approved by the utility.
Customers not desiring to sell energy under this rate have the right to negotiate a buy-back
rate. If, in lieu of taking service under this rate schedule, a customer elects to sell their excess
generation to another utility or into the market administered by the Midcontinent Independent
System Operator, Inc. (MISO) the utility shall transport the customer’s excess generation
across the utility’s distribution system and shall recover actual costs of such transportation
from the generating customer.
3. Rate
Unless separately negotiated in accordance with paragraph 7 of this rate schedule, the utility
shall, for all energy sold to the utility, credit the COGS at the applicable avoided cost rate
specified below. The avoided cost rates will be reset annually for billing on or after February
1 of each year to reflect the then current value of each component shown in the table below:
a. For BTM COGS:
Customers shall receive monthly payments equal to the sum of the excess energy
volume (in kWh) in each On-Peak Hour of the month multiplied by the seasonal on-
peak buy-back rate plus the sum of the excess energy volume (in kWh) in each Off-
Peak Hour of the month multiplied by the seasonal off-peak buy-back rate. The
following table shows the components of these rates.

most recent three-year average locational marginal price of energy in MISO at the
WEC.WPPI commercial pricing node. The Capacity Credit will likewise be reset based
on the most recent three-year average annual capacity clearing price in the MISO
Planning Resource Auction.
b. For FTM COGS:
Customers shall enter into a service agreement with the utility and shall receive
monthly payments equal to:
[FTM Energy Credit + FTM Capacity Credit + FTM Trans Credit] x DLF
Where:
FTM Energy Credit = the sum of the energy produced by the FTM COGS (in kWh) in
each On-Peak Hour of the month multiplied by the seasonal on-peak Energy Credit
rate, plus the sum of the energy produced by the FTM COGS in each Off-Peak Hour of
the month multiplied by the seasonal off-peak Energy Credit rate. The seasonal FTM
Energy Credit rates are equal to the Energy Credit components specified in the table for
BTM COGS and will be updated annually as described there.
FTM Capacity Credit = (1/12) x (Applicable Net CONE) x (Cap of FTM COGS)
Applicable Net CONE = MISO’s Net Cost of New Entry (specified in $/kW-year)
effective when the FTM COGS and utility enter into a 10-
year service agreement, subject to extension in 5 year
increments at the end of the initial term and each
subsequent term. Net CONE shall be updated upon any
extension.
Cap of FTM COGS = MISO’s accredited capacity amount (in kW) then effective
for the FTM COGS at the time of the service agreement or
any extension thereof.
FTM Trans Credit = $0
DLF (Distribution Loss Factor) = 1.03

A preliminary budget presentation is scheduled for the Utility Commission’s October
meeting. Staff will present the preliminary budget, along with high-level
recommendations and key areas of focus, as we work toward finalizing the 2027
budget.
Strategic Planning Session
I attended WPPI’s Strategic Planning Session on August 27–28. The session focused
on business plan priorities, power supply strategies, future capacity needs, and
extensions to existing power supply contracts. The discussions provided an opportunity
to look at the longer-term needs of member utilities and the strategies WPPI is
considering to ensure reliable and cost-effective power supply for its members.
Comtech Substation Transformer Failure Update
Staff has identified a suitable replacement transformer from an investor-owned utility
and has reached an agreement on the purchase price. Waupun Utilities has completed
the necessary cost estimates and provided the information to the insurance adjuster for
review and approval. We are currently working with the adjuster to obtain confirmation
of coverage so we can proceed with the purchase and installation of the interim
transformer.
The transformer will provide an interim solution while Waupun Utilities continues to
evaluate the long-term repair or replacement of the failed transformer.
Customers First Coalition Power Breakfast
Mayor Bishop, our Billing Representative, and I will attend the Customers First
Coalition’s annual Power Breakfast on September 15. The event brings together
policymakers, energy leaders, and stakeholders to discuss the key factors shaping
energy costs in Wisconsin.
This year’s discussion will focus on how global fuel markets, infrastructure investment,
and customer usage—particularly during Wisconsin winters—affect energy bills, as well
as the role effective utility regulation plays in managing these pressures. The event
provides an opportunity to stay informed on issues affecting our customers and the
utility industry.
WPPI Annual Conference
WPPI’s Annual Meeting will take place September 16–18, 2026, at Blue Harbor Resort
in Sheboygan, followed by the WPPI Board of Directors meeting on Friday morning. The

Collection and Distribution Crew
Call-In Report
• On Thursday, August 27, staff responded to 306 E. Main St. for a copper water se rvice that had been
damaged by a contractor. Upon arrival, staff found that the copper service had been pulled out of the
building, which caused the water meter to break and resulted in damage to some of the internal plumbing.
Staff contacted a local plumber to complete the necessary repairs to the internal plumbing in the
basement. Once the plumbing repairs were completed, Waupun Utilities staff installed a new water meter
and restored water service.
• On Saturday, September 5, staff responded to 320 E. Main St. for a low water pressure complaint. Upon
arrival, staff determined that the newly installed curb stop had not been fully opened following the
contractor's installation of the new water service. Staff fully opened the curb stop, restoring proper water
pressure to the property.
Water Distribution Operations
• Valve exercising continues throughout the system. Staff currently have approximately one more week of
valve exercising work remaining. Once valve exercising is completed, staff will begin hydrant
maintenance.
Sanitary Sewer Operations
• Staff continue to flush sanitary mains throughout the city as part of ongoing sanitary sewer maintenance.
• Staff also replaced the sanitary lateral at 708 Tulip Lane due to a significant sag in the lateral that was
causing recurring sewer backups. The existing lateral was removed and a new sanitary lateral was
installed to correct the issue.
• Staff also capped an unused sanitary lateral at the new Pelton Development. The lateral was capped
because it will not be utilized as part of the new development.
