PURA streamlines energy-affordability orders, adopts consent calendar
Summary
The Public Utilities Regulatory Authority adopted an interim decision in docket 250501 to rescind and modify ongoing energy-affordability orders and reporting requirements, and approved the meeting consent calendar items 1–20 on April 23.
The Public Utilities Regulatory Authority on April 23 adopted an interim decision in docket 250501 that rescinds and modifies prior energy-affordability orders and streamlines data reporting requirements the authority established in earlier dockets.
Authority staff presented the interim decision after reviewing proposals and stakeholder comments from the Connecticut Light and Power Company (Eversource), Yankee Gas Services Company, the United Illuminating Company, Connecticut Natural Gas Corporation and Southern Connecticut Gas Corporation. The staff presentation said the authority initiated docket 250501 "to review, among other items, appropriate modifications to the ongoing energy affordability orders and data reporting requirements." Staff recommended approval of the interim decision.
The interim decision rescinds and modifies ongoing energy-affordability orders for clarity and streamlined review and relies on utility proposals and technical meeting input and written comments. The decision, as presented, did not list specific line-item changes in the public transcript; staff and the authority noted that utilities would implement the modified reporting requirements as described in the interim decision.
The panel moved, seconded and adopted the interim decision in docket 250501 by roll call; Commissioners Michael Karen and David Arconti and Chairman Marissa Gillette each recorded votes of “yes.”
Following adoption of that interim decision, the authority adopted the consent calendar (items 1–20) in full by roll call. The transcript does not provide details of the individual consent items; the authority’s public minutes or docket entries will contain item-level details.
