PSC accepts Pepco and DPL updates to direct load control riders, directs DPL to file corrected pages
Summary
The commission accepted tariff updates to Pepco and Delmarva Power's residential and nonresidential direct load control riders to add a flexible load management program and a bring-your-own-device option, directed DPL to file corrected residential RDLC pages, and set the effective date for accepted pages at Dec. 1, 2024.
Paige Shaw, speaking for commission staff, told the Public Service Commission on Dec. 4 that Pepco and Delmarva Power and Light Company had submitted updated tariff pages to incorporate the flexible load management program and a "bring your own device" (BYOD) option previously approved in Order No. 91213. Staff said the proposed clarifications do not affect the Empower Maryland surcharge but streamline tariff language.
Staff noted that DPL had inadvertently replicated Pepco's incentive structure in its RDLC residential rider; DPL acknowledged the mistake and the commission directed the company to file clean copies of its residential RDLC rider. Staff recommended acceptance of Pepco's tariff pages and DPL's nonresidential RDLC rider with an effective date of Dec. 1, 2024.
Taylor Beckham, representing the companies, thanked staff for its review and said the companies accept the staff recommendations. The chair moved to accept Pepco's pages for filing effective Dec. 1, 2024; Commissioners Sutchman, Barbet and Richard voted "Aye." The chair then moved to accept DPL's corrected residential RDLC rider and its nonresidential RDLC rider effective Dec. 1, 2024, and the same commissioners recorded "Aye" votes.
