As of December 31, 1995, Allegheny Power System, Inc. ("APS") has
made capital contributions to AYP Capital, Inc. ("AYP Capital") totaling
$1,838,303. During the fourth quarter, AYP Capital performed studies and
completed preliminary development activities in connection with the ownership
of companies in the areas of emerging technologies closely related to APS's
core business. Other specific activities performed by AYP Capital during the
fourth quarter are shown below.
I. Description of Activities
A. Consulting and Engineering Services
AYP Capital provided engineering and consulting services to
nonaffiliated entities and completed preliminary development
activities associated with the provision of such services to
nonaffiliated entities.
B. Energy Management Services - AYP Cogenex
AYP Capital continued to jointly pursue with EUA-Cogenex
opportunities for demand-side management activities which
included, but were not limited to, marketing and sales,
auditing, bidding, and job procurement and performance.
Such development activities were performed by the joint
venture within Washington, D.C. and the states of Maryland,
Ohio, Pennsylvania, Virginia and West Virginia.
C. EWGs and FUCOs
AYP Capital funded investments of $700,174 in the Latin
American Energy and Electricity Fund I, L.P. ("FondElec"), a
limited partnership formed to invest in and develop electric
energy opportunities in Latin America. FondElec purchased
2.36% of the securities of Ontario-Quinta A.V.V. (Aruba),
which in turn owns 60% of an electric distribution company
in Lima, Peru. AYP Capital has committed to invest up to $5
million in FondElec.
AYP Capital agreed to purchase Duquesne Light Company's 50%
interest in Unit No. 1 of the Fort Martin Power Station for
$169 million. AYP Capital intends to utilize its share of
the unit as an exempt wholesale generator ("EWG") and sell
the output at market prices. Obtaining the necessary
regulatory approvals will likely take several months. AYP
Capital expects a closing in 1996.
AYP Capital also performed studies and completed preliminary
development activities in connection with the ownership of
companies for the acquisition and ownership of EWGs.
