Michigan PSC Approves New Threshold for Choice Service
August 26, 2011
Email This Story
The Michigan PSC has approved revisions to the electric choice tariff of HomeWorks Tri-County Electric Cooperative, including a revision to insert a 1,000 kW threshold for a customer to qualify for choice service.
Currently, choice service is only offered under schedules Large Power Service Rate – Choice, Schedule CD-C and Primary Service Rate – Choice, Schedule PSDS-C (U-16808).
HomeWorks does not currently have any customers taking choice service under either of the rate schedules.
While HomeWorks is exempt from PSC rate regulation, the Commission retains jurisdiction over matters involving customer choice at the cooperative.
The approved revisions require a customer to have a monthly demand of at least 1,000 kW to take choice service. Individual customers receiving demand metered service at multiple metering points and eligible to be taking service under the cooperative's Schedule CD or Schedule PSDS may achieve the 1,000 kW threshold by aggregating or summing the maximum demands for each metering point occurring during a single month.
Additionally, the approved changes reflect the elimination from the choice schedules of a $0.0050 per kilowatt-hour wholesale surcharge, the Power Supply Development Fund charge, which HomeWorks' wholesale power supplier (Wolverine Power Supply Cooperative) discontinued as of July 1, 2011 in accordance with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission's June 15, 2011 order in Case No. ER11-3480.
