(a) | Percent of planned generation output sold or purchased forward under contracts, forward physical contracts, forward financial contracts, or options that mitigate price uncertainty that may require regulatory approval or approval of transmission rights. Positions that are not classified as hedges are netted in the planned generation under contract. |
(b) | Transaction under which power is supplied from a specific generation asset; if the asset is not operating, the seller is generally not liable to buyer for any damages. Certain unit-contingent sales include a guarantee of availability. Availability guarantees provide for the payment to the power purchaser of contract damages, if incurred, in the event the seller fails to deliver power as a result of the failure of the specified generation unit to generate power at or above a specified availability threshold. All of Entergy’s outstanding guarantees of availability provide for dollar limits on Entergy’s maximum liability under such guarantees. |
(c) | Transaction that requires receipt or delivery of energy at a specified delivery point (usually at a market hub not associated with a specific asset) or settles financially on notional quantities; if a party fails to deliver or receive energy, defaulting party must compensate the other party as specified in the contract, a portion of which may be capped through the use of risk management products. This also includes option transactions that may expire without being exercised. |
(d) | Transactions for the purchase of energy, generally to offset a Firm LD transaction. |
(e) | Amount of output expected to be generated by Entergy Wholesale Commodities resources considering plant operating characteristics, outage schedules, and expected market conditions that affect dispatch. |
(f) | Assumes NRC license renewals for plants with NRC license renewal applications in process. Assumes shutdown of FitzPatrick on January 27, 2017, shutdown of Pilgrim on May 31, 2019, and uninterrupted normal operation |
(g) | Percent of planned qualified capacity sold to mitigate price uncertainty under physical or financial transactions. |
(h) | A contract for the sale of installed capacity and related energy, priced per megawatt-hour sold. |
(i) | A contract for the sale of an installed capacity product in a regional market. |
(j) | Includes assumptions on converting a portion of the portfolio to contracted with fixed price cost or discount and excludes non-cash revenue from the amortization of the Palisades below-market PPA, mark-to-market activity, and service revenues. |
