The Ratemaking Standards and The Regulatory Standards are discussed and the key elements of the eleven PURPA standards are briefly noted. This is followed by a pie chart which summarizes the extent of consideration of the standard as of December 31, 1982. An analysis is provided of the progress made in consideration of each of the eleven standards for the year 1979 through 1982. It compares: progress made with respect to the regulated utilities versus non-regulated utilities; and progress made on the ratemaking standards versus the regulatory standards. The number of retail consumers actually affected by adoption of a standard and the gigawatthour (GWH) sales attributable to those consumers are detailed. The conformance of the standards adopted by the utilities with the substantive elements of the PURPA legislation is discussed. Department of Energy activities in support of PURPA are discussed.
