Staff of the Texas PUC have filed proposed cost allocations to retail electric providers for the cost of online broadcasting of PUCT meetings for FY 2027

PURA provides that a retail electric provider that serves more than 250,000 customers shall be subject to such an assessment.

There is no change in the specific retail electric providers which are proposed to be subject to the FY 2027 assessment compared to the FY 2026 assessment, indicating that no REP has newly crossed (in either direction) the 250,000 customer threshold compared to a year-ago (comparing the two specific points at which the assessments were made)

For those entities subject to the assessment, the specific assessment proposed by Staff is allocated among the group members based on the size of the company, thus providing a relative size metric for such included companies. The overall cost allocated to the subject REPs has decreased for FY 2027 (accounting for some of the specific REP dollar changes year over year), from an aggregate of $45,900 a year ago to $45,000 for FY 2027.

The relative position and amounts allocated to each REP has changed for FY 2027, as shown in the tables below

Specifically, Staff's recommended FY 2027 assessment to each REP is as follows:

FY 2027 Assessment (Proposed)
REP                   Allocation Amount

TXU Energy Retail Company      $15,506
Reliant Energy                 $13,963
Just Energy                     $3,787
US Retailers                    $3,176
Ambit Texas                     $3,011
Direct Energy                   $2,800
Gexa Energy                     $2,757

For comparison, the FY 2026 assessment had been:

FY 2026 Assessment
REP                   Allocation Amount
TXU Energy Retail Company       $15,760
Reliant Energy Retail Company   $14,274
US Retailers                     $3,996
Just Energy                      $3,740
Ambit Texas                      $3,210
Gexa Energy                      $2,560
Direct Energy                    $2,360
