Texas Staff Proposes Lower Upfront Smart Meter Opt-Out Charge at TDUs
Staff of the Public Utility Commission of Texas have filed testimony recommending a lower upfront advanced meter opt-out charge at AEP Texas Central and AEP Texas North, with a marginally higher monthly ongoing opt-out charge for an initial five years.
Specifically, Staff recommended that the AEP Texas Central upfront opt-out charge be set as follows:
In contrast, AEP TCC had originally proposed the following upfront opt-out fees:
For all opt-out types, Staff would set the TCC monthly opt-out charge at $19.54 per month for the first five years, with the charge reduced to $18.00 after five years. AEP TCC's proposed monthly charge had been $18.
At AEP Texas North, Staff recommended that the AEP TNC upfront opt-out charge be set as follows:
In contrast, AEP TNC had originally proposed the following upfront opt-out fees:
For all opt-out types, Staff would set the TNC monthly opt-out charge at $36.54 per month for the first five years, with the charge reduced to $35.00 after five years. AEP TNC's proposed monthly charge had been $35.
Staff's proposed amounts stem from Staff's recommendation that 50% of TCC's and TNC's fixed costs be allocated to the one-time fee, with the remaining 50% to be amortized over a five-year amortization period, collected in the monthly fee.
