Texas PUC Commissioners To Modify Allocation Of CenterPoint-TDU's Recovery Of Monthly Flat Charges -- Per "Meter" Versus Per "Customer" Basis
The following story is brought free of charge to readers by EC Infosystems, the exclusive EDI provider of EnergyChoiceMatters.com
During yesterday's open meeting, a majority of Texas PUC Commissioners agreed, as part of a rate case, to a modification in how CenterPoint Energy Houston Electric (CEHE) assesses its flat monthly customer charge and metering charge
Commissioners agreed informally on a course of action regarding the issue, but did not yet take a formal vote
Currently, both the flat monthly customer charge and metering charge are recovered on a "per retail customer" basis
As previously reported by EnergyChoiceMatters.com, CEHE in the rate case proposed to change the recovery of both charges to a "per meter" basis. The proposed change has been opposed by retail electric providers
As previously reported, in a proposal for decision, three Texas ALJs have recommended that the Commission reject the proposal from CEHE to change its flat monthly charges (both the customer charge and the metering charge) from a "per retail customer" basis to a "per meter" basis. Under the PFD, both charges would continue to be recovered on a per customer basis
During yesterday's open meeting, Commissioners agreed that the customer charge shall be assessed on a per customer basis, but the metering charge shall be assessed on a per meter basis, overturning the PFD on this issue
