MEMORANDUM
CITY ADMINISTRATOR
Date: July 21, 2026
To: Mayor, Committee of the Whole and Common Council
From: Mark Frye, City Administrator
Re: Consider/act on Resolution 26-R3383 for Amendment No. 3 to WPPI Long Term Power Supply
Contract
RELATES TO THE STRATEGIC PLAN
N/A
BACKGROUND
The City of Oconomowoc has been a member of Wisconsin Public Power Inc. Energy (WPPI) since its
inception in 1980. That year 23 municipally owned electric utilities formed WPPI. Our goal was to be able
to obtain power supply at a reasonable cost. Prior to WPPI we were subject to wholesale rate hikes from
Investor Owned Utilities (IOU).
In 1989, we took another step to long term energy cost stabilization when the City approved a 35-year
(until 2024) all requirement power supply contract. This allowed WPPI to purchase and own coal and
natural gas generation facilities.
With changes to the industry and the need to control cost by owning generation, Amendment 1 was
approved in 2002. Although the 35-year agreement still had 22 years remaining, this 13-year extension
(until 2037) enabled WPPI to purchase and finance long term power supply resources, including generating
plants. The financing made available by the extension allowed for the purchase of additional coal and gas
generating facilities. WPPI was also able to contract for wind, nuclear and gas power supplies and own
high voltage transmission.
Amendment 2 was approved in 2015 to extend our agreement to purchase WPPI power another 18 years
(until 2055). As with the previous amendment, the extension would allow for additional wind and solar
contracts and ownership of high voltage transmission facilities.
Tonight we will be discussing Amendment 3, another 18-year extension (until 2073). The power supply
industry has been growing and changing rapidly. Data Centers and overall load growth are driving the
need for generation and transmission capabilities. To stay competitive for the member owners, WPPI
needs to participate in the growth to maintain our share of generation and transmission facilities.
ADDITIONAL ANALYSIS
The City has benefited from our 46-year ownership/partnership with WPPI. As indicated above, they have
a proven record of being proactive in making strategic moves to stay competitive in the industry. They
have proven over time their mission to listen and respond to the needs of the members.
7
2
Since 1980, being a member owner of WPPI has kept our services at or above those provided by the
surrounding IOU. WPPI employs the technical and purchasing support for all members. This allows
Oconomowoc to have metering and billing software without having to manage the infrastructure. Our
ownership is the key component in the low rates we charge compared to what our neighbors pay. Average
retail rates for WPPI are the lowest in the area at 10.51 cents per kilowatt-hour. In comparison, We
Energies average retail rate to our neighbors is 14.40 cents per kilowatt-hour.
Low rates only have value if the power is on. Our operations and maintenance in the City provide excellent
reliability. We invest in our electrical system based on the need to keep improving. Each year we replace
cables and equipment to keep the power on. This is highlighted each time a storm rolls through, and we
don’t make the news because of the number of residents without power. We have an excellent Manager
and crew overseeing the operation.
Having both low rates and reliability will lead to good things for Oconomowoc!
FINANCIAL IMPACT
Maintains long term stabile rates with ownership of generation, power supply contracts and high voltage
transmission lines.
RECOMMENDATION
Administration and Utility Staff recommend approval of Amendment 3 to the Long Term Power Supply
Contract.
SUGGESTED MOTION
Motion to approve Resolution 26-R3383.

OCONOMOWOC
AMENDMENT NO. 3
TO LONG TERM POWER SUPPLY CONTRACT
FOR PARTICIPATING MEMBERS
This Amendment No. 3 to Long Term Power Supply Contract for Participating Members (this
“Amendment”), dated as of _________________, 202__ (the “Effective Date”), is made by and
between WPPI Energy, a municipal electric company (“WPPI”), and the City of Oconomowoc (the
“Member”). WPPI and the Member are sometimes referred to in this Amendment individually as a
“Party” and collectively as the “Parties.”
RECITALS
A. The Member is a member of WPPI and, like all other Participating Members, takes long-
term all-requirements electric service from WPPI pursuant to a long-term power supply contract (each,
a “Long Term Contract”).
B. In this Amendment, the term “the Member’s Contract” refers to the Long Term Power
Supply Contract for Participating Members between WPPI and the Member dated as of April 4, 1989 (as
subsequently amended), the current initial term of which will expire immediately following December
31, 2055.
C. WPPI's revenues under the Long Term Contracts have been pledged to secure the bonds
issued by WPPI to finance ownership of WPPI’s generating units and transmission assets.
D. It is necessary that Participating Members extend the existing terms of the Long Term
Contracts in order to enable WPPI to plan for, obtain, contract for, purchase, and finance new long-term
power supply resources, including, but not limited to, new generating plants.
E. The Member wishes that WPPI be able to secure and finance long-term power supply
resources so that WPPI is able to continue serving the Member and all other Participating Members
reliably and at competitive and stable rates under the Long Term Contracts over the long term, and
WPPI wishes to be able to make new long-term commitments in order to do so.
F. The Parties desire to further amend the Member’s Contract on the terms and conditions
set forth in this Amendment to extend the initial term of the Member’s Contract.
AGREEMENT
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing recitals, which are incorporated into and
made a part of this Amendment, the promises contained in this Amendment and the Member’s Contract,
and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby

Information for WPPI Energy Member Governing Bodies
Your locally owned, not-for-profit electric utility delivers significant local value. To help
preserve and enhance that value for the long term, member-owned, not-for-profit WPPI
Energy stands behind your community with competitive wholesale power, forward-
thinking services and effective advocacy.
Long-Term Utility Success
Your WPPI wholesale power
agreement is key to how your utility
delivers reliable electric service,
competitive costs and local control.
A Legacy of Long-Term Planning
Over decades, members have made long-term commitments, extending their contracts as needs evolved.
Their decisions built the diverse resources that power your community today.
WPPI MEMBERS

Long-Term Decisions. Strong Results.
WPPI is the low-cost leader for powering local communities. Member utilities provide
highly competitive electric rates.
Meeting Future Needs
Future needs are already visible.
Some are reflected in the lighter
portions of this capacity needs
chart.
The same long-term planning
approach that positioned your
utility for success in the past
continues to identify and plan for
the needs ahead.
Extending the agreement helps
preserve continued access to
cost-effective long-term wholesale
power for your community.
28

Why Extend Now?
WPPI is actively pursuing opportunities to continue serving your community’s needs. These and other
beneficial solutions are not possible without a member agreement end date that is sufficient to back the
needed financing and contracts.
Transmission Investment
WPPI's ownership interest in American
Transmission Co. (ATC) provides returns
that help lower wholesale power costs for
your community. As the regional grid build-
out unfolds, future ATC investments will
require financing beyond what WPPI’s
margin alone can support.
The extension will help preserve WPPI's
ability to finance future ATC investments and
continue receiving returns that help your
community’s wholesale power costs.

Key Facts for Local Officials
WPPI CEO and the staff leadership team are available
to participate in governing body meetings.
Members receive legal documents and amendment
packages. Local approval processes begin.
Annual Meeting recognition of members with
completed approvals and documents. WPPI board
provides necessary approvals for adoption.
Target date for members to complete local approvals:
December 31, 2026.
Final deadline: February 26, 2027.
A Record of Success
WPPI is the low-cost leader for powering local communities.
Overall WPPI member rates are very competitive compared to utilities in the region.
Together WPPI members have achieved a diverse, low-cost power supply.
Your Community and WPPI
Your WPPI wholesale power agreement is key to how your utility provides electric service at competitive costs.
The need for additional, cost-effective resources to power WPPI member communities is visible now.
WPPI is actively pursuing electric generating resource options, transmission system investments and financial
transactions for this purpose.
Why Extend Now?
The current 2055 end date of the WPPI member agreement falls short of the typical 30 years needed for
securing the most cost-effective long-term solutions to meet your community’s energy needs.
The request is for an 18-year extension of the current 2055 end date.
An 18-year extension is not new for WPPI members. Your previous extension was also 18 years.
What if a Member Does Not Extend?
The existing agreement continues through 2055. The member would have no rights to WPPI’s power supply or
services beyond that term.

UTILITIES
1 For every megawatt hour of electricity produced by renewable sources, a renewable energy certificate or credit (REC) is created.
The person or entity holding that REC is entitled to claim all of the environmental benefits of the associated renewable electricity
generation. WPPI holds some, but not all, of the RECs associated with the electricity it receives from renewable sources. WPPI uses
RECs (by retiring them within a REC tracking system) in connection with certain WPPI and member programs and to comply with
state renewable energy standards. WPPI also sells some RECs, the revenues from which help lower the wholesale costs for WPPI
members. The area of the chart labeled “Renewables” represents the portion of electricity received from renewable sources for
which WPPI received and has not sold the associated RECs. These RECs may in the future be used by WPPI to comply with regulatory
requirements, retired for other purposes or sold to third parties as described above. The portion of the chart labeled “Renewables, No
RECs” represents the portion of electricity received from renewable sources for which WPPI did not purchase the associated RECs in
the first instance, or for which the associated RECs have been sold.
The Power of Joint Action
The not-for-profit utilities that make up WPPI deliver safe, reliable, cost-competitive electric
power, and much more. To preserve and enhance this significant local value for the long term,
