Baltimore Gas & Electric has filed various updates to the components of its electricity SOS rates in Maryland

Included in the filing are:

• Updates to the bypassable transmission rate, effective June 1, 2025

• Updates to the bypassable SOS Admin. Charge, effective June 2025 through September 2025

• Newly filed residential and Type I small commercial energy (supply and capacity) rates for the period October 1, 2025 through May 31, 2026

• Newly filed Type II SOS energy rates for June 2025 through August 2025

Additionally, still outstanding is BGE's previously filed proposal to further adjust (from an initial filing) the June1, 2025 SOS energy (supply and capacity) rates for residential and Type I small commercial customers due to spikes in PJM capacity prices, versus the proxy capacity price used to initially set rates (see story here)

Notably, the newly filed transmission rate update results in the Schedule R residential bypassable transmission rate increasing from 1.682 cents per kWh to 2.322 cents per kWh

As a result of the various rate updates since the summer 2025 energy supply procurement for residential customers was completed last year, the BGE Schedule R residential indicative "Total SOS Rate" for the period Jun. 1, 2025 - Sep. 30, 2025 has increased from an initially filed indicative rate of 11.896 cents per kWh as filed in December 2024 (with customary expected updates to the Admin. Charge and Transmission charge outstanding) to 13.484 cents per kWh as filed in March 2025, with that increase due to the spike in capacity prices, to a newly proposed rate of 14.146 cents per kWh based on the latest updates

Note that the Total SOS Rate excludes the bypassable reconciliation rate

For Schedule R residential and Type I G/GU customers, the newly filed October 2025 energy component (supply and capacity) rates will vary marginally from the summer 2025 rates

The Schedule R residential energy rate for the Oct. 1, 2025 - May 31, 2026 period is to be 11.689 cents per kWh, up from the summer 2025 rate of 11.420 cents per kWh

The Type I G/GU energy rate for the Oct. 1, 2025 - May 31, 2026 period is to be 10.767 cents per kWh, down from the summer 2025 rate of 10.992 cents per kWh

Full details on various changes to the BGE SOS rates and components can be found in BGE's filing here
