Formula Transmission Rate Annual
Update Process
Annual filing by May 15th will update the current year revenue
requirement and true-up prior year to actual:
Update current year
Estimate current year revenue requirement using updated costs based on prior year actual
data per FERC Form 1 plus projected plant additions for the current calendar year
True-up prior year
Perform a true-up of the prior year’s rates by comparing prior year actual data per FERC
Form 1 to the estimate used for that year; over/under-recoveries for the prior year are
collected in the current year
Rates take effect on June 1st
Interested parties have 180 days to submit information requests
and  raise concerns; unresolved concerns go before FERC for
resolution
The combination of annual updating and true-up virtually eliminates regulatory lag

Key Themes of Legislative Proposals
Competitive procurement process utilizing auctions, RFPs, spot purchases
and bilateral contracts, with provisions for long-term supply contracts
Full and current cost recovery for default service provider (DSP)
Largest industrial customers may negotiate terms and rates for retail supply
with DSP, subject to PUC review
DSP
must
offer
residential
and
small
commercial
customers
a
rate
that
changes
no
more
frequently
than
annually
with
reconciliation
for
under
or
over-recovery
Must file a rate phase-in plan for all customers; cap annual increases for
defined period and defer any excess for future recovery over additional
defined period
Phase-in
plans
-
both
pre
and
post
-
are
to
be
opt-in
for
customer,
provide
utility and/or customer with recovery of carrying costs on pre-pay and/or
deferred balance
Securitization of deferred balance and carrying charges authorized
Establish
minimum
usage
reduction
and
peak
load
reduction
targets
Competing legislative proposals call for either DSP-run programs or
State-wide
Program
Administrator
with
network
of
3
party
suppliers
Cost cap proposed, with DSP authorized to fully recover expenses
Full deployment of smart meters within 9-10 years
Full
recovery
for
net
costs
of
smart

through
base
rates
or
through automatic recovery mechanism
Must submit a time-of-use rate plan with voluntary customer participation by

Hedging Targets
(1) Percent financially hedged is our estimate of the gross margin that is not at risk due to a market price drop and assuming normal generation operating conditions.
The
formula
is:
gross
margin
at
the
5
percentile
/
expected
gross
margin.
Power Team employs commodity hedging
strategies to optimize Exelon
Generation’s earnings:
Maintain length for opportunistic sales
Use cross commodity option strategies to
enhance hedge activities
Time hedging around view of market
fundamentals
Supplement portfolio with load following
products
Use physical and financial fuel products to
manage variability in fossil generation output

Lobbying in favor of climate change legislation that is
national,
mandatory
and
economy-wide
Taking voluntary action to reduce our greenhouse gas (GHG)
emissions 8% from 2001 levels by 2008
Developing a comprehensive low-carbon energy strategy
Goal will be to reduce, displace or offset Exelon’s entire carbon footprint by 2020
Expanding our low-carbon resources
Providing customers with green products and services
Being a model of green operations


44
Recognized Environmental Leadership

Exelon and Federal Climate
Change Legislation
Actively involved in the climate debate in Washington, D.C.
Lobbying in favor of enacting legislation that is national, mandatory
and
economy-wide
Favors a cap-and-trade system over a carbon tax
Believes that any allocation scheme should include allowances for
distribution companies to help offset the cost of carbon for the
end-user
To limit near-term economic impacts, supports a cost containment
mechanism
that
supports
a
market
price
for
carbon
that
increases
over
time

CO2 Reductions Demand Multiple Generation
Technologies
EIA Base Case 2007
The technical potential exists
for the U.S. electricity sector
to significantly reduce CO2
emissions over the coming
decades
No one technology will be a
silver bullet –
a portfolio of
technologies will be needed
Much of the needed
technology is not available
yet –
substantial R&D,
demonstration, and
deployment are required
To
stabilize
emissions
at
1990
levels,
multiple
technologies
and
intensive
R&D
will be required


48
Status of Legislative Initiatives
Several pending Legislative proposals and vehicles are gaining support in
Washington:
Lieberman-Warner (S. 2191, America’s Climate Security Act of 2007)
Approved by U.S. Senate Environment and Public Works Committee
Slated for action by the full U.S. Senate in the Spring
Needs 60 votes to break expected filibuster and pass
Economy-wide:  All major GHG producing sectors
Seeks to reduce GHG to the 2005 level by 2012; phases to 70% below the 2005 level by 2050
Points
of
regulation:
Electric
power
sector
large
coal
generators;
Natural
gas
natural
gas
processors
and
importers;
Industrial
sector
large
facilities
emitting
more
than
10,000
tonnes
per
year
“Free”
allowances
include:
10%
to
states,
19%
to
generators
(phase
out
in
2031);
10%
to
industry;
9%
to
electric distribution companies, to benefit their customers; 2% to gas distribution companies, to benefit
their customers
Creates a Carbon Market Efficiency Board (“Carbon Fed”) with limited authority to oversee market
Dingell-Boucher White Papers
Scope of a Cap-and-Trade Program
Competitiveness Concerns/Engaging Developing Countries
Appropriate Roles for Different Levels of Government
More white papers in the works
Expect a draft bill sometime this summer
Dingell
has
characterized
the
issue
as
“the
hardest
thing
(he’s)
ever
dealt
with”
in
his
52+
years
in
Congress
Boucher says he is committed to enacting legislation this year
All the major Presidential contenders (McCain, Clinton and Obama) support
economy-wide, mandatory cap-and-trade legislation

excludes the earnings impacts of the following:
mark-to-market adjustments from economic hedging activities
unrealized gains and losses from nuclear decommissioning trust fund
investments
significant impairments of intangible assets, including goodwill
significant changes in decommissioning obligation estimates
costs associated with the Illinois electric rate settlement, including ComEd’s
previously announced customer rate relief programs
costs associated with ComEd’s settlement with the City of Chicago

significant future changes to GAAP
Both our operating earnings and GAAP earnings guidance are
based on the assumption of normal weather
