Background and Purpose

According to reports from the Electric News and Nikkan Kogyo Shimbun in April and May 2025, TEPCO EP plans to transition to a "new standard menu" in the 2026 fiscal year, contemplating reductions in fixed charges while increasing variable rates.

This change raises concerns for corporations currently utilizing the old standard menu (including business power, high voltage power, and special high voltage power A), as their electricity costs are likely to rise post-2026. The impact of contract renewal timing will notably vary, making early consideration for an "April switch" extremely crucial.

This seminar aims to clarify the critical decision points businesses must consider now, alongside independent model calculations from our company, all within a concise 30-minute presentation.

Additionally, participants who wish for a quotation can provide their usage data post-webinar, allowing us to submit an estimate within five business days. This service greatly assists in expediting decision-making for the April switch.

Webinar Content

• - Background and Schedule for the Abolition of the Old Standard Menu

- Timelines and transition strategies for business power, high voltage power, and special high voltage power A

• - Overview of the planned modifications to the 2026 fiscal year new standard menu, including reductions in basic charges and increases in variable charges.

- The impact on adjustment amounts for fuel costs, treated equally across the board.

• - Impact analysis using model case calculations (business power and high voltage power):

- Contract power of 353 kW / annual usage of 886,516 kWh / load factor of 27.8% (office)
- Contract power of 2,000 kW / annual usage of 9,371,118 kWh / load factor of 53% (factory)
- Comparison simulations across various load factor scenarios (21%, 43%, and 82%).

• - Future forecasting for fuel prices (oil, LNG, coal)

- Impacts of fuel market conditions and exchange rates on pricing.

• - Recommended strategies corporations should adopt and practical points to consider for the April switch:

- Navigating quotations and contract renewals
- The process flow for submitting estimated costs within five business days after receiving data
- Timeline and key considerations for switching schedules.
