• FAQ-266:
  Are suppliers responsible for serving load including transmission and distribution losses?
  
  Each winning bidder will be responsible for fulfilling all the requirements of an LSE for the portion of AEP Ohio’s SSO supply that it serves, including, without limitation, energy, capacity, ancillary services, market-based transmission service (excluding NITS), and any other service as required by PJM. AEP Ohio will provide distribution services and will be responsible for NITS charges and for other non-market-based FERC approved transmission charges. Full requirements service and the LSE obligations of SSO Suppliers are defined in the Master SSO Supply Agreement.  The hourly energy requirements of the SSO supply, as measured or profiled by AEP Ohio and settled by PJM, will include distribution losses, transmission losses, and unaccounted for energy, and will be de-rated for transmission losses in accordance with PJM’s settlement methodology and implementation of marginal transmission losses.  Please note that the Master SSO Supply Agreement provides further and full details on the obligations of the SSO Supplier.

• FAQ-265:
  Does the hourly load data posted to the CBP website include transmission and distribution losses?
  
  The energy volumes used for settlement will be de-rated for marginal transmission losses by PJM. The historical hourly load data posted to the CBP website includes all transmission and distribution losses and has not been de-rated for marginal transmission losses. Historical de-ration factors are available on PJM’s website through PJM’s InSchedule tool. AEP Ohio does not post hourly distribution or transmission loss factors.

• FAQ-262:
  We've noticed a recent drop in customer counts but did not see a corresponding drop in the hourly load data. Additionally, it appears that the number of customers in the switching statistics file does not align with the number of customers in the customer counts file as of March 2021. Can you please confirm that the customer counts data is correct?

• FAQ-249:
  Can you please explain what the MW-measure  of 25.98 (2,598 PLC (MW)) announced on February 5, 2021 represents?
  
  The MW-measure announced during the Bidder Information Webcast on January 12, 2021 and confirmed on February 5, 2021 is based on the five highest coincident peaks experienced by PJM in 2020 for SSO customers (i.e., non-shopping only).

  Bidders are reminded that the MW-measure is calculated for informational purposes only.  AEP Ohio does not represent that a tranche will have the load announced or any particular value.  The actual SSO Load will depend upon many factors including customer migration to CRES providers and weather conditions.  Bidders are responsible for evaluating the uncertainties associated with the SSO Load for which they are responsible for providing supply.
