Utilizing this contract for electricity generation services, DC WASA was successful in purchasing its electricity for an average cost of $95.52 per megawatt hour versus an estimated average cost of $142.3 per megawatt hour had the Authority acquired its electricity through the PEPCO Standard Offer Service (SOS). This represented an estimated savings of approximately $13.1 million in FY 2009. Budget Overview and Performance 11-38
