Commodity Contract Derivative Assets. TVA enters into certain derivative contracts for natural gas that require physical delivery of the contracted quantity of the commodity. TVA also reinstated the Financial Hedging Program ("FHP") (formerly the Financial Trading Program, which was suspended in 2014) in December 2021, and hedging activity began under the program in the second quarter of 2022. Commodity contract derivative assets classified as current include deliveries or settlements that will occur within 12 months or less. See Note 14 — Risk Management Activities and Derivative Transactions — Derivatives Not Receiving Hedge Accounting Treatment — Commodity Derivatives and — Commodity Derivatives under the FHP for a discussion of TVA's commodity contract derivatives.
