ng the 15 years preceding the date of application ` the yearly increase in total kilowatt-hour (kWh) sales for the 15 years preceding the date of application and an average annual compound growth rate for this period ` a normalized kWh sales growth rate that accounts for unusual changes (e.g., weather and fluctuations in major loads not representative of system growth), a list of the changes considered, and the method of normalization ` a description of the methodologies used in forecasting (e.g., econometric, extrapolation, judgment, and surveys) showing all major factors considered in arriving at the forecast, how these factors were introduced to the forecast, and an estimate of their likely effect on the growth of kWh sales and peakload demand in the service area ` the historic and projected relevant service area season of peakload demand (summer-winter) for the 15 years preceding the date of application through the 3rd year of commercial operation of all proposed units ` the historic and projected relevant service area load factor (average load/peakload) for the 15 years preceding the date of application through the 3rd year of commercial operation of all proposed units; where shifts in load factor or load factor trends are evident, identification of the principal factors contributing to these shifts or trends ` the yearly increase in regional system peakload demand for the 15 years preceding the date of application and an average annual compound growth rate for this period ` a normalized regional system peakload rate that accounts for unusual changes (e.g., weather, inter- ruptible contracts, and fluctuations in major loads not representative of system growth), a list of the changes considered, and the method of normalization ` load duration curves for the current year and for the 1st year of commercial operation of the first proposed unit NUREG-1555 8.2.1-4 October 1999 ` the minimum hourly load for the current year and for the 1st year of commercial operation
