Electric Utility Rate Study: ratemaking, Topic 5
Technical Report
·
OSTI ID:5165408
This report presents a set of recommendations for the practical application to ratemaking in the United States of the theoretical foundation and cost procedures set forth in the NERA reports relating to Topics 1.3 and 4. It accepts, for this purpose, the overall revenue constraints flowing from the Hope decision, and recognizes feasibility considerations, including the need to preserve a reasonable degree of continuity and simplicity in the new rate forms and the metering problems that may be presented. The report is presented in three sections: the first discusses the structural tools of the ratemaker; the second discusses the problems of accommodating marginal-cost-based rates to existing regulatory criteria; and, finally, the third addresses the specific application of marginal-cost findings to certain electric utilities to evolve appropriate rates.
