In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the TVA Board approved the Public Power Support and Stabilization Program, which includes alternative wholesale payment arrangements for LPCs, on March 25, 2020. TVA is offering up to $1.0 billion of credit support to LPCs that demonstrate the need for temporary financial relief, through the deferral of a portion of LPCs' wholesale power payments owed to TVA. The program, which began in April 2020, requires LPCs to apply monthly and is subject to approval by TVA. If approved, TVA will establish a repayment schedule based on the LPC's need, not to exceed two years, and an initial repayment date will be approved by TVA no later than December 31, 2020. As of August 3, 2020, $1 million of credit support has been approved under the Public Power Support and Stabilization Program.
