| TFO | Transmission Facility Owner - a term used by the AEUB to describe an electric transmission system wire owner. |
| TFO Tariff | Transmission Facility Owner Tariff - means charges related to the provision of transmission access service to retailers, regulated rate providers and direct connect consumers and recovered from the AESO. |
| Total Charges | Total charge for the month including all Pool charges (usage, settlement adjustments, RSA and RAM amounts and generation) and wire charges. |
| Total Delivery Charge | Charges associated with the delivery of energy to the meter. Delivery charges are invoiced by Wire Owners, not the Power Pool. |
| Total Distribution Charges ($) | The sum of Load Settlement Access, Rider and Miscellaneous charges. |
| Total Energy (kWh) | Total Energy is the sum of Usage, Line Loss and UFE. |
| Total Energy Charges ($) | Total Energy Charges is the sum of Total Gross Energy and the Contract Adjustment. |
| Total Generation Charge | Charge, or if negative payment, by Power Pool on generation asset. Charge includes generated energy at pool price and spot trading charges. |
| Total Gross Energy ($) | Total Gross Energy is the sum of Usage, Line Loss & UFE, Spot Trading and Retailer Fee charges. |
| Total Pool Charge | Total of all Pool related charges including Usage, settlement adjustments, RAM, RSA and generation. |
| Total Transmission Charges ($) | Total Transmission Charges appears on the tariff bill for transporting energy from the zone's generator to the retailer's wires. It is the sum of the System Access charge and the System Access Flat. |
| Total Usage Cost | Total Usage cost is the sum of consumption cost and delivery cost. This number represents the average cost for every mWh of energy you consume. |
| TPG | Trading Practices Guidelines. |
| Transaction Date and Time | The date and time the transaction was created. The standard Date format has been defined as: YYYYMMDDHHMISS. |
| Transaction Status Code | Used by the recipient to notify the sender of problems with the transaction. |
| Transformer | An electromagnetic device for changing the voltage of alternating electricity. |
| Transmission | The process of transporting electric energy in bulk on high voltage lines from the generating facility to the local distribution company for delivery to retail customers. |
| Transmission (kWh) | The movement or transfer of electric energy over an interconnected group of lines and associated equipment between points of supply and points at which it is transformed for delivery to consumers or is delivered to other electric systems. Transmission is considered to end when the energy is transformed for distribution to the consumer. |
| Transmission Administrator (TA) | The entity designated by the Electrical Utilities Act (Alberta) and charged with the operation of the Alberta Interconnnected Energy System. |
| Transmission Administrator (TA)ID | The Transmission Administrator ID is 4000. |
| Transmission Circuit | A conductor used to transport electricity from generating stations to load. |
| Transmission Distribution Loss | Electric energy lost due to the transmission and distribution of electricity. Much of the loss is thermal in nature. |
| Transmission Electric System | An interconnected group of electric transmission lines and associated equipment for moving or transferring electric energy in bulk between points of supply and points at which it is transformed for delivery over the distribution system lines to consumers or is delivered to other electric systems. |
| Transmission Line | A set of conductors, insulators, supporting structures, and associated equipment used to move large quantities of power at high voltage, usually over long distances between a generating or receiving point and major substations or delivery points. |
| Transmission Network | A system of transmission or distribution lines so cross-connected and operated as to permit multiple power supply to any principal point. |
| Transmission Operations Coordinator | The committee accountable to the AESO with membership made up of transmission facility owners, charged with the ongoing review and upgrading of all operating standards and guidelines for coordinated operation of the transmission system. |
| TXN | End Datetime RISS field to indicate when a transaction is no longer valid due to replacement by another transaction for the same settlement date. |
| TXN End Datetime | RISS field to indicate when a transaction is no longer valid due to replacement by another transaction for the same settlement date. |
| Type | Actual from meter; CA = Calculated; VE = Result from a VEE process (Verification, Edit, Estimation); ES = Estimate. |
