Duke Energy Ohio Clarifies Rider RE Rate Changes

Duke Energy Ohio clarified that bypassable Rider RE under its proposed electric security plan, which will recover generation costs from wholesale auctions, will be an annually set rate with a summer/non-summer seasonal variation. This was Matters' original understanding but a statement made during an investor call raised some confusion if the rate would change during the delivery year for a reason aside from the seasonal factoring (see 6/21 and 6/23 for background). The total price to compare will vary more often due to other bypassable components, however (quarterly updates to alternative energy compliance costs, as well as any FERC-driven changes in market-based transmission costs in Rider RTO)
