What’s in it
This bill relates to gas and electric utility energy efficiency plans and demand response plans and formal ratemaking proceedings. The bill requires utilities to file annual comparisons utilized in setting revenue requirements. The utility shall provide in the written notice of a rate increase to customers the total rate increase as a percentage of the utility’s own current charges. The utility shall provide the Iowa utilities board (board) with sufficient detail in the filings to verify the authorized rate case treatment of revenue requirements.
Read the full explanation
The bill requires a utility to provide affected customers an example of the requested rate increase applied over the past months prior to a public hearing. The board may determine the manner of notification of the example to the affected customers. In a formal proceeding, the board shall admit all objections filed by customers into evidence, but parties may object to the inclusion of the objections filed by customers. The bill requires the board to allow a gas or electric utility to provide in an energy efficiency plan or demand response plan, for investments exceeding the current or previously approved plan, up to percent of revenue to ensure investments are cost-effective.6.
