    (220 ILCS 5/16-130)

    Sec. 16-130. Annual Reports. The General Assembly finds that it is necessary to have reliable and accurate information regarding the transition to a competitive electric industry. In addition to the annual report requirements pursuant to Section 5-109 of this Act, each electric utility shall file with the Commission a report on the following topics in accordance with the schedule set forth in subsection (b) of this Section:

        (1) Data on each customer class of the electric

    utility in which delivery services have been elected including:

            (A) number of retail customers in each class that

        have elected delivery service;

            (B) kilowatt hours consumed by the customers

        described in subparagraph (A);

            (C) revenue loss experienced by the utility as a

        result of customers electing delivery services or market-based prices as compared to continued service under otherwise applicable tariffed rates;

            (D) total amount of funds collected from each

        customer class pursuant to the transition charges authorized in Section 16-108;

            (E) Such other information as the Commission may

        by rule require.

        (2) A description of any steps taken by the electric

    utility to mitigate and reduce its costs, including both a detailed description of steps taken during the preceding calendar year and a summary of steps taken since the effective date of this amendatory Act of 1997, and including, to the extent practicable, quantification of the costs mitigated or reduced by specific actions taken by the electric utility.

        (3) A description of actions taken under Sections

    5-104, 7-204, 9-220, and 16-111 of this Act. This information shall include but not be limited to:

            (A) a description of the actions taken;

            (C) the annual savings or additional charges

        realized by customers from actions taken, by customer class and total for each year;

            (D) the accumulated impact on customers by

        customer class and total; and

            (E) a summary of the method used to quantify the

        impact on customers.

        (4) A summary of the electric utility's use of

    transitional funding instruments, including a description of the electric utility's use of the proceeds of any transitional funding instruments it has issued in accordance with Article XVIII of this Act.

        (5) Kilowatt-hours consumed in the twelve months

    ending December 31, 1996 (which kilowatt-hours are hereby referred to as "base year sales") by customer class multiplied by the revenue per kilowatt hour, adjusted to remove charges added to customers' bills pursuant to Sections 9-221 and 9-222 of this Act, during the twelve months ending December 31, 1996, adjusted for the reductions required by subsection (b) of Section 16-111 and the mitigation factors contained in Section 16-102. This amount shall be stated for: (i) each calendar year preceding the year in which a report is required to be submitted pursuant to subsection (b); and (ii) as a cumulative total of all calendar years beginning with 1998 and ending with the calendar year preceding the year in which a report is required to be submitted pursuant to subsection (b).

        (6) Calculations identical to those required by

    subparagraph (5) except that base year sales shall be adjusted for growth in the electric utility's service territory, in addition to the other adjustments specified by the first sentence of subparagraph (5).

        (7) The electric utility's total revenue and net

    income for each calendar year beginning with 1997 through the calendar year preceding the year in which a report is required to be submitted pursuant to subsection (b) as reported in the electric utility's Form 1 report to the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission.

        (8) Any consideration in excess of the net book cost

    as of the effective date of this amendatory Act of 1997 received by the electric utility during the year from a sale made subsequent to the effective date of this amendatory Act of 1997 to a non-affiliated third party of any generating plant that was owned by the electric utility on the effective date of this amendatory Act of 1997.

        (9) Any consideration received by the electric

    utility from sales or transfers during the year to an affiliated interest of generating plant, or other plant that represents an investment of $25,000,000 or more in terms of total depreciated original cost, which generating or other plant were owned by the electric utility prior to the effective date of this amendatory Act of 1997.

        (10) Any consideration received by an affiliated

    interest of an electric utility from sales or transfers during the year to a non-affiliated third party of generating plant, but only if: (i) the electric utility had previously sold or transferred such plant to the affiliated interest subsequent to the effective date of this amendatory Act of 1997; (ii) the affiliated interest sells or transfers such plant to a non-affiliated third party prior to December 31, 2006; and (iii) the affiliated interest receives consideration for the sale or transfer of such plant to the non-affiliated third party in an amount greater than the cost or price at which such plant was sold or transferred to the affiliated interest by the electric utility.

        (11) A summary account of those expenditures made for

    projects, programs, and improvements relating to transmission and distribution including, without limitation, infrastructure expansion, repair and replacement, capital investments, operations and maintenance, and vegetation management, pursuant to a written commitment made under subsection (k) of Section 16-111.

    (b) The information required by subsection (a) shall be filed by each electric utility on or before March 1 of each year 1999 through 2007 or through such additional years as the electric utility is collecting transition charges pursuant to subsection (f) of Section 16-108, for the previous calendar year.
