Commission approves making WEPCO steam economic development tariff permanent

Public Service Commission · August 7, 2026

Summary

The commission approved Wisconsin Electric Power Company's request to remove the five-year pilot designation from its AG3 steam economic development tariff, leaving the participation cap and the 'but-for' affidavit requirement unchanged; commissioners declined to require new reporting requirements at this time.

Commissioner Nieto summarized docket 6630TH102 and said the company sought only to remove the sentence that gives the tariff pilot designation by eliminating the five-year enrollment limitation, allowing eligible customers to continue enrolling into the future. She told the commission the company is not proposing changes to program design or rates and noted the existing participation cap remains unchanged.

Staff analysis identified no concerns with making the pilot permanent and flagged that the participation cap and but-for affidavit protections remain. Commissioners agreed they did not need to impose specific reporting requirements as a condition of approval and favored relying on rate-case discovery if additional information is needed later. Commissioner Nieto moved to approve the request; Commissioner Hawkins seconded and the motion carried.
