MCPE Rate

Learn about MCPE rates.

CIS supports MCPE billing type for both interval Customers and non interval Customers.

For interval Customers, ista|net calculates the rate based on 15 minute rates based on Market Clearing Price and the 15 minute reads gathered from an Interval meter. These prices are called Shadow Market Prices.

In the case of NonInterval meters, CIS calculates a “Proxy” of 15 minute reads. These are calculated by using standard amounts multiplied out by the load profile of the meter in order to make the begin and end read of a NonInterval meter appear as 15 minute reads. This is called “backcasting”.

CIS provides rich and easy to use graphical user interfaces to calculate, present and assign MCPE based billing type.
