    In the Matter of a Rate for Large Solar Photovoltaic Installations Topic Open for Comment: • Whether the Commission should adopt Xcel’s proposal to continue the existing interim solar Standby Service capacity credit of $5.15 per kW/month until the Commission has made a determination on the Value of Solar methodology or until some other point in time. Project Background: On May 13, 2013, the Commission issued its ORDER SETTING INTERIM RATE AND ESTABLISHING NEW SOLAR RATE DOCKET, in the above-cited docket. In this Order, the Commission established an interim PV capacity credit of $5.15 per kW/month and ordered Xcel to file a large customer PV rate proposal by October 1, 2013. On October 1, 2013, Xcel filed a letter explaining that the Commission’s May 13 Order was issued prior to the passage of legislation establishing the timeline to develop a value of solar (VOS) methodology. Since the capacity value of solar will be addressed in the DOC’s VOS methodology, and is related to the calculation of a large customer PV rate, Xcel believes filing a final rate proposal at this time would be premature.
