Clay Electric Cooperative, Inc.2 Kilowatt ǀ November 2017

After a stable year for our rates, we plan to raise the Access Charge Jan. 1 As we often mention, your cost for 1,000 kilowatt hours of electricity is among the lowest in the state. We’re proud that we’re able to provide you with affordably priced electricity, plus excellent and reliable service. Many of you express appreciation for these efforts. Of course, you’re wondering what your co-op’s rate will look like next year. Based on our current projections of operational expenses, and an evalu-ation of our rate structure, in January we are increasing the Access Charge by $3, due to rising expenses. This means the cost for 1,000 kWh will rise from the current $109.90 to $112.90. For perspective, our charge will be $23 and the average Access Charge of the electric cooperatives in Florida is $28. We had an independent rate study done in 2015 and the study revealed that our Access Charge should be $28, but we chose a lower increase. The Access Charge is the compo-nent of your bill that recovers some of the fixed costs that come directly from serving each member, regardless of how much electricity is used. These include the cost of the meter, poles, substations and the more than 13,000 miles of distribution and transmission lines running through 14 counties to deliver electricity to your home or business. Every utility company charges a flat fee for the purpose of covering fixed costs. The number of customers per mile of line is the greatest factor in determining what a utility charges per month for this fee. As an example, the more customers per mile of line,

typically the lower the flat fee. This is because the utility has more customers to spread out their fixed cost. Remember, we’re a not-for-profit cooperative, which means we provide service to you at cost. Many of you re-ceive a Capital Credits refund credit or check each March. These refunds are a reflection of your co-op’s not-for-profit status, and they’re certainly a benefit of being served by a cooperative. We’re all aware of how bad the economy has been over the past few years. For us, the reduced economic activity has meant little growth. We continue to look closely at all of our expenditures, including our staffing levels and organizational structure. Because of the reduced economic ac-tivity, some expenses have gone down, but other expenses - like the cost of materials, tools and equipment - con-tinue to increase. On top of all that, we have had to contend with the un-planned expense of three hurricanes in less than a year. We have had to spend several million dollars to rebuild the distribution system in order to get the lights back on. By far, your co-op’s largest expense involves the purchase of wholesale electricity. Around three-quarters of the annual budget is spent on the purchase of power from our whole-sale power supplier, Seminole Electric Co-op. We remain committed to maintain-ing our financial stability, competi-tive rates and service excellence. We will continue to keep you informed about the cost of power in the coming months.

As a cooperative serving the needs of its members across 14 north Florida counties, Clay Electric is committed to providing safe, reliable electricity and excellent customer service. Members may have noticed the co-op has built several new district offices and a new headquarters facility in recent years. The co-op will be installing solar panels on its Orange Park and Palatka District offices in the early part of next year. Each office will have an 18-kW so-lar system to offset the building’s energy consumption. As a distribution co-op, Clay Electric doesn’t generate the electricity it sells. It relies on Seminole Electric, the co-op’s wholesale power provider. In the past year, Seminole installed a new 2.2-MW solar facility in Hardee County. Clay Electric owns a portion of this facility. Looking into the near future, Semi-nole Electric recently announced a new long-range power supply plan. This plan will diversify Seminole’s portfolio of energy sources with con-struction of a new natural gas-fired generating plant, a reduced reliance on coal, purchased power agreements, and additional solar resources. The new plant will be a combined-cycle facility providing approximately 1,050 megawatts of reliable electric generation. This new plant will be con-structed in Putnam County, and share property with Seminole’s coal-fired power plant, the Seminole Generating Station (SGS). It is targeted for comple-tion in late 2022. Seminole expects construction to last approximately 33 months and require an average of 200 workers per month in Putnam County. Along with building the new plant on its Putnam County site, Seminole will remove one of its two coal-fired generat-ing units at SGS on that site from service approximately five years from now. Seminole CEO and General Manager Lisa D. Johnson called the plan “a bal-anced approach that will let us generate power more competitively with natural

gas, while managing the risk and un-predictability of potential future policy changes relating to carbon emissions associated with coal.” “This was a difficult decision that was made only after a thoughtful planning process,” Johnson said. That process began with Seminole’s Board (which includes Clay Electric’s General Manager Ricky Davis and trust-ees Susie Reeves and John Whitehead) in December 2015, when the Board unanimously identified a need to secure additional power supply resources be-ginning in the 2021-22 time frame. “We, our employees, and our commu-nity are proud of SGS and our leader-ship in environmental responsibility and sustainability in the U.S.,” said Johnson. “By continuing the operation of one unit, we maintain a valuable asset in our energy portfolio, while maintaining fuel diversity.” Similar to Clay Electric, Seminole is a not-for-profit electric cooperative that has a commitment to its members to

provide electricity in the most economi-cal way. In addition to building the new plant, Seminole will be entering into agree-ments to purchase power from other facilities, including at least 40-MW of solar in the future. “Along with our Cooperative So-lar project launched in August 2017, this plan further diversifies our mix of energy resources to provide predict-ability and manage risk,” said Johnson. “Ultimately this will help us meet our responsibilities to our members, em-ployees and the communities in which we operate as we move into the future.” Seminole’s plan is about finding the right balance – for its members, employ-ees, and the community. With this new power supply plan un-derway for the next five years, Seminole and Clay Electric remain committed to continue providing safe, affordable, and reliable electricity to you, our members at the end of the line, now and far into the future.

Clay Electric’s General Manager Ricky Davis and trustees Susie Reeves and John White-head are pictured at the official ribbon cutting for Seminole Electric’s newly installed 2.2-megawatt solar facility. As a member of Seminole, Clay Electric owns a portion of this generation facility. Seminole has plans for more solar energy generation as well as a new natural gas-fired generating plant.

stormimpacts

Rebuilding after hurricanes tops $21.6 million Hurricane Irma caused widespread and costly damage to the co-op’s service area and to its distribution system when it swept through the region on Sept. 11. After a dozen years without a major storm, Clay Electric and its members had to contend with the damage and expense of three hurricanes in less than a year. Hurricane Irma now stands as the most costly storm in the co-op’s history. An interesting fact, however, is that damage inflicted by 2004’s Hurricane Frances actually required more poles and distribution transformers to be re-placed than were needed for restoration work after Hurricane Irma.

The co-op’s expenses from the three storms that hit in 2016 and 2017 total more than $21.6 million, with Hurri-cane Irma accounting for $15.5 million. These expenses are outside normal fi-nancial budget processes, and so the co-op must rely on lines of credit to pay for the unanticipated expenses. The co-op anticipates being reimbursed by FEMA for the storms, but those funds can take a year or longer to arrive. Clay Electric only recently received the reimburse-ment for Hurricane Hermine, which hit the co-op’s territory in September 2016. The co-op is reimbursed approximately 75 percent for storm-related expenses but the actual amount reimbursed is

affected by eligibility factors. Accord-ing to Mark Maxwell, the co-op’s CFO, it may take longer to be reimbursed for Hurricane Irma due to the severity and number of storms hitting the U.S. and Puerto Rico. Another factor is that the co-op is only reimbursed for work in counties where there was an official disaster declaration. In addition to the expense of poles, transformers and other equipment, the co-op must also pay for nearly 1,000 outside personnel who came to help with restoration efforts for Hurricane Irma. The total number of outside help personnel for Hurricanes Hermine and Matthew combined was 829.

Two co-op members are this year’s recipients of the co-op’s Back to Your Future Scholarships. Terractita Slater of Hawthorne and Nikcole Wiles of Palatka were select-ed to receive the scholarships de-signed to help older students pursue their educational goals. For 20 years, the co-op has been providing scholarships for deserving high school students. Three years ago

the co-op was able to expand that effort to provide this scholarship for students over the age of 22. Applicants were scored based on financial need, leadership and/or community service, and educational goals and career plans. Slater is working toward her bach-elor’s degree in public health admin-istration from Hodges University. She said it was humbling to be selected to

receive the scholarship. “This is confirmation that I should continue on and finish my degree,” she said. “It’s been a long road.” Wiles said she appreciates being selected to receive the scholarship and that having the funds will make it easier to pursue her educational goals. She is working toward her master’s degree in women’s and gender studies at the University of Florida.
