3. CPUC Proceedings: TOU Rates
SCE Rate Design Window A
SCE proposed a new TOU rate, available to all residential customers, with a 2:00 PM-8:00 PM summer peak period.
A settlement, adopting SCE’s proposal subject to a 200,000 customer enrollment cap, is pending CPUC approval; existing TOU rate schedules would remain open* and retain the current Noon-6:00 PM summer peak period
PD expected 4th quarter, 2014
SCE GRC Ph. 2, A
SCE proposes to eliminate two optional TOU schedules in this Application—schedules TOU-TEV (the whole-house EV rate) and TOU-D-T (the 2-tiered time-of-use rate)—and replace those schedules with the non-tiered TOU rates proposed in SCE’s 2013 Rate Design Window Application. If the pending RDW settlement is approved, Schedule TOU-D-T would remain open, with the current Noon-6:00 PM summer peak period, until the 2018 GRC.
“An aggressive opt-in campaign for Schedule TOU-D would also facilitate SCE’s rate design objectives in R , where SCE has expressed a practical and policy preference for opt-in, rather than default, residential TOU rates.”**
