AFUDC Rate Clause Samples

The AFUDC Rate clause defines the interest rate applied to funds used during construction of a project, allowing the capitalization of financing costs incurred before the asset is operational. In practice, this rate is used to calculate the amount of interest that can be added to the cost basis of a project, typically covering borrowed funds or equity invested during the construction phase. By specifying how these costs are determined and applied, the clause ensures that all parties understand how construction-period financing expenses are treated, thereby providing clarity and consistency in project accounting and cost recovery.
