AEP Texas, for its Central and North divisions, has filed with the Public Utility Commission of Texas to increase its Distribution Cost Recovery Factors (DCRF).

For residential and Secondary ≤ 10 kW customers, the increase represents an increase of 40-60%, depending on class and service area

AEP Texas Central's proposed DCRFs are:

AEP Texas Central - Proposed DCRF, Effective 9/1/17

Residential             $0.003496 per kWh
Secondary ≤ 10 kW       $0.009388 per kWh
Secondary > 10 kW 10 kW
  IDR                   $0.749564 per kW
  Non IDR               $0.749564 per kW
Primary Service
  IDR                   $0.577437 per kW
  Non IDR               $0.577437 per kW
Transmission            $0.011304 per kW
Lighting                $0.009388 per kWh

For comparison, AEP Texas Central's current DCRFs are:

AEP Texas Central - Current DCRF
Residential             $0.002409 per kWh
Secondary ≤ 10 kW       $0.006566 per kWh
Secondary > 10 kW 10 kW
  IDR                   $0.481447 per kW
  Non IDR               $0.481447 per kW
Primary Service
  IDR                   $0.423435 per kW
  Non IDR               $0.423435 per kW
Transmission            $0.007931 per kW
Lighting                $0.006566 per kWh

AEP Texas North's proposed DCRFs are below. For the 2017-18 rates, the revenue requirement reflects a refund of an overcollection of prior DCRF rates. Effective 9/1/18, the revenue requirement would remove this refund from its calculation, resulting in updated DCRF rates (provided that AEP Texas North does not seek to update the rate prior to such change taking effect).

AEP Texas North - Proposed DCRF, Effective 9/1/17

Residential             $0.004531 per kWh
Secondary ≤ 10 kW       $0.012332 per kWh
Secondary > 10 kW 10 kW
  IDR                   $0.805662 per kW
  Non IDR               $0.805662 per kW
Primary Service
  IDR                   $0.341234 per kW
  Non IDR               $0.341234 per kW
Transmission            $0.029288 per kW
Lighting                $0.012332 per kWh
