In his mehodolog he comonens are groued as follows: The Bulk Sul Tariffs, ha include he comonen of he ariff relaing o he use of he Transmission Ssem and comonen of he ariff relaed o elecrici generaion, as secified in Chaer II. The Disribuion Tariff, ha includes he comonen of he ariff relaing o he use of he licensee s Disribuion Ssem, as secified in Chaer III. The Reail Sul Tariff, ha includes he comonen of he ariff relaing o sul of elecrici as secified in Chaer III. Transmission cusomers will onl a he bulk sul ariff, while oher cusomers will a a ariff comrising all four comonens. 2 CHPTER II: TRNSMISSION ND GENERTION COSTS - BULK SUPPLY TRIS 2.1 RTIONLE The Bulk Sul Tariffs shall be calculaed b he Elecrici Transmission & Bulk Sul Licensee (hereinafer he Transmission Licensee ), erforming he funcion of "Bulk Sul and Oeraions Business" as saed in he Secion 3 of he relevan Licence, in accordance wih he mehodolog saed in his Tariff Mehodolog. The Transmission Licensee ("Bulk Sul and Oeraions Business") shall erform 3 differen aciviies: 1. The "Bulk Sul and Oeraions Business" shall urchase elecrici roduced b he Generaion Licensees erforming is sub-funcion (i) he single buer of elecrici generaed b generaion licensees (hereinafer he Single Buer ) 2. The "Bulk Sul and Oeraions Business" shall disach he available generaion according o he oeraional crieria esablished b he Elecrici Transmission & Bulk Sul Licence Condiion 30, Cenral Desach and meri order, erforming is sub-funcion (iii) of he ssem oeraor in resec of he Transmission Ssem (hereinafer he Ssem Oeraor ). 3.
