Regulator Directs Utilities To Report Number Of Residential Customers Served Under Variable Rates, By Supplier, In Uncollectibles Investigation
The following story is brought free of charge to readers by EC Infosystems, the exclusive EDI provider of EnergyChoiceMatters.com
The Connecticut PURA has issued interrogatories to Connecticut Light & Power and United Illuminating directing the utilities to, "Provide a list of suppliers and the number of residential accounts currently identified as being served under a variable rate for each supplier."
The interrogatories were issued in Docket No. 18-04-25 - PURA Investigation Regarding Issues Related to Uncollectible Accounts
Docket No. 18-04-25 has seen certain stakeholders, such as OCC, raise the issue of the utilities' purchase of receivables programs as a driver of utility uncollectibles
Although suppliers are prohibited from enrolling residential customers onto new variable rate products in Connecticut, suppliers are permitted to continue serving, with a variable rate, customers who were on a variable rate plan at the time the state's variable rate ban was enacted.
As exclusively first reported by EnergyChoiceMatters.com, PURA recently assigned a new docket reviewing the POR programs as a result of such comments; specifically, Docket 20-01-33 - PURA Review of Electric Distribution Companies’ Method of Payment to Licensed Electric Suppliers for Uncollectible Customer Accounts (see story here)
