FPT-12.1
FORMULA POWER TRANSMISSION RATE

SECTION I. AVAILABILITY
This schedule supersedes Schedule FPT-10.1 for all firm transmission agreements that provide
for application of FPT rates that may be adjusted not more frequently than once a year. This
schedule is applicable only to such transmission agreements executed prior to October 1, 1996.
It is available for firm transmission of non-Federal power using the Main Grid and/or Secondary
System of the Federal Columbia River Transmission System. This schedule is for full-year and
partial-year service and for either continuous or intermittent service when firm transmission
service is required. For facilities at voltages lower than the Secondary System, a different rate
schedule may be specified. Service under this schedule is subject to BPA-TS’sthe General Rate
Schedule Provisions (GRSPs), which follow the rate schedules in this document..

SECTION II. RATES
The monthly charge per kilowatt (kW) shall be one-twelfth of the sum of the Main Grid Charge
and the Secondary System Charge, as applicable and as specified in the agreement.

The Main Grid and Secondary System charges are calculated each quarter beginning October
2007 according to the following formula:

GSR
(1 + q ) * FPT Base Charges
$1.695327/kW/mo

Where:

GSR = The ACS-12 Reactive Supply and Voltage Control
q
From Generation Sources Service Rate for Long-Term
Firm PTP Transmission Service and NT Service,
section II.B.1.a., that is effective for the quarter for
which the FPT rate is being calculated, in $/kW/mo.

FPT Base Charges = The following annual Main Grid and Secondary
System charges:

Page 3 FPT-12.1
MAIN GRID CHARGES
1. Main Grid Distance $0.0702587 per
mile
2. Main Grid Interconnection $0.7361/kW
Terminal
3. Main Grid Terminal $0.8168/kW
4. Main Grid Miscellaneous $34.0035/kW
Facilities
SECONDARY SYSTEM CHARGES
1. Secondary System Distance $0.68995772 per
mile
2. Secondary System $67.5431/kW
Transformation
3. Secondary System $2.9244/kW
Intermediate Terminal
4. Secondary System $12.0773/kW
Interconnection Terminal

Main Grid Distance and Secondary System Distance charges shall be calculated to four
decimal places. All other Main Grid and Secondary System charges shall be calculated
to two decimal places.

The Main Grid Charge per kilowatt shall be the sum of one or more of the Main Grid
annual charges, as specified in the agreement. The Secondary System Charge per
kilowatt shall be the sum of one or more of the Secondary System annual charges, as
specified in the agreement.

SECTION III. BILLING FACTORS
Unless otherwise stated in the agreement, the Billing Factor for the rates specified in section II
shall be the largest of:

A. The Transmission Demand;

B. The highest hourly Scheduled Demand for the month; or

C. The Ratchet Demand.

FPT-12.1 Page 4
SECTION IV. ADJUSTMENTS, CHARGES, AND OTHER RATE PROVISIONS
A. ANCILLARY SERVICES
Ancillary Services that may be required to support FPT transmission service are
available under the ACS rate schedule. FPT customers do not pay the ACS charges for
Scheduling, System Control, and Dispatch Service or Reactive Supply and Voltage
Control from Generation Sources Service, because these services are included in FPT
service.

B. FAILURE TO COMPLY PENALTY
Customers taking service under this rate schedule are subject to the Failure to Comply
Penalty Charge, specified in section II.B. of the GRSPs.

C. POWER FACTOR PENALTY
Customers taking service under this rate schedule are subject to the Power Factor Penalty
Charge, specified in section II.C. of the GRSPs.
