CenterPoint TDU Files To Double Rider Charged To Retail Providers
CenterPoint Energy Houston Electric has filed with the Public Utility Commission of Texas to increase its Distribution Cost Recovery Factors (DCRF).
For residential customers, the filing represents an increase of 100% from the currently effective DCRF. For Secondary ≤ 10 kVA customers, the filing represents an increase of 96%.
CenterPoint Energy Houston Electric's proposed DCRFs are:
*Note: the DCRFs effective 9/1/17 reflect inclusion in the revenue requirement a refund of a prior overcollection. The DCRFs effective 9/1/18 would reflect the revenue requirement once this refund has been completed, unless CEHE subsequently files for an update to the 9/1/18 DCRF prior to the 9/1/18 rates above taking effect
For comparison, CenterPoint Energy Houston Electric's current DCRFs are:
CenterPoint Energy Houston Electric provided the following statement concerning its filing:
"This filing represents 0.68% increase in an average residential bill.
"Funding a modern and reliable electrical grid depends on a regulatory structure that both allows utilities to keep pace with evolving demands and technology, and provides for timely cost recovery. The rate case process to recover investments, revenues and expenditures associated with electric grid infrastructure can be drawn out and administratively burdensome.
"Since 2009, CenterPoint Energy has invested nearly $2.63 billion in capital in its electric distribution business. Last year alone, the company invested $479 million in capital in its electric distribution system in primarily three areas:
• System Improvement Projects
• Load Growth Projects
• Intelligent Grid
"Additionally, Houston Electric added nearly 55,000 metered customers last year, which equates to 2 percent year-over-year growth."
