Abstract
The Regulatory Assistance Project (RAP) has been hired by the South Carolina Public Service Authority, commonly known as Santee Cooper, to assist the Board of Directors in its review of the management rate proposal as an independent consultant, pursuant to Act 90 as passed by the South Carolina General Assembly. RAP’s review has three sections: 1. A review of typical rate-making principles and policy goals and how the application of these principles and goals should change in the context of a modernizing electricity system. 2. An overview of key cost allocation issues, with a specific emphasis on the definition and estimation of demand-related costs, and why they matter for rate design. 3. A discussion of rate design reform issues and options, with a focus on the residential and small commercial customer classes. Overall, we believe the 2024 request filing appears to be a responsible and substantial application for new rates.
