Texas REP, PUC Staff Reach Settlement In Revocation Proceeding, Following POLR Drop Last Year
The following story is brought free of charge to readers by VertexOne, the exclusive EDI provider of EnergyChoiceMatters.com
The Staff of the Public Utility Commission of Texas (Staff), V247 Power Corporation (V247), and the Electric Reliability Council of Texas, Inc. (ERCOT) (collectively, the parties) have entered into a settlement concerning Staff's petition to revoke V247's retail electric provider certificate due to V247 failing to cure a material breach at ERCOT, which resulted in an involuntary transition of V247's customers to POLRs in May 2022
The settlement states that, on April 26, 2022, V247's QSE gave notice of its intent to terminate its relationship with V247. The settlement states that V247 was then required to designate a new QSE with such relationship to take effect on the date its relationship with its current QSE was terminated or to satisfy all necessary creditworthiness requirements for QSEs and become an Emergency QSE by noon on May 2, 2022. The settlement states that V247 failed to meet the May 2, 2022 deadline, as well as a subsequent deadline to cure a material breach of the ERCOT standard form market participant agreement
Between May 3, 2022 and May 9, 2022, ERCOT performed a mass transition of V247's customers to providers of last resort (POLRs).
In total, approximately 24,767 customers were transitioned to POLRs, including
approximately 22,912 customers on residential contracts, 1,681 customers on small commercial contracts, 173 customers on medium commercial contracts, and one customer on a large commercial contract
Under the settlement, V247 agrees to the revocation of its REP certificate
Under the settlement, Commission Staff does not seek administrative penalties for the alleged violations addressed in the proceeding
Docket 53610
