At its March 12, 2025 administrative meeting the Maryland Public Service Commission approved the minutes for March 5 and acted on several administrative filings, including a telecommunications operating-authority request, a supplier-license renewal scheduling request and a notice of contract assignment.
The commission approved a notification from Priority Power Management LLC of a new trade name and granted operating authority to Astound Networks Maryland LLC, including the requested COMAR waivers. Commissioner Barve and Chair Hoover recorded votes of “aye” when the items were presented on the consent agenda.
Kevin Mosher, speaking for staff, presented a request by NRG Energy to adjust the commission’s supplier-license renewal schedule so that Reliant Energy Northeast and Green Mountain Energy would be moved to the April 30 renewal date. Mosher said staff recommended accepting the proposed schedule change; Leah Gibbons, representing NRG, said she had no comment beyond the staff recommendation. The commission voted to accept the schedule as proposed.
Andrew Schlicht, also for staff, presented a joint filing from MidAmerican Energy Services LLC and Constellation New Energy, describing a transfer of customers that took place on Jan. 1, 2025, and providing customer-notification letters. Schlicht told commissioners staff found the companies had complied with relevant notification requirements and that neither company had outstanding commission assessments; he reported that staff’s review found 158 complaints filed against Constellation since 2018 and said the number represented a very small fraction of Constellation’s total customers. Milan Taklamikayo of the Office of People’s Counsel said OPC did not file comments because, in its view, MidAmerican was assigning only commercial contracts and no residential customers were being transferred. Brian Green, representing Constellation, asked the commission to note the filing and said Constellation had recognized there were no residential customers assigned.
The commission recorded votes to note the filing and move the items as presented.
